THE BRIGADE TEAM.
The brigade rifle team is getting in excel
lent shape. 1t is doing better by far in
practice this season than ever before. The
team, too, is always stronger in competition
than in practice, and there seems to be no
reason why number OF prizes should not be
brought back Noone knows who willconi-
pose the brigade team. 1t is quite likely
that it will not be chosen until the morning
of the shoot for the Hilton trophy. A pretty
good guess, though, is the following:
Capt. Bell, Second regiment; Lieut.. c. H.
Baird, Sixth battalion; Capt. j. NJ. Pol
lard, Lieut.. A. o. Hutterly, SeTgt. G. w.
Dickey, Sergt. James Stewart, Corp. K. p.
Carleton, Corp. Maurice Appieby, Privates
S. j Scott, G. +. Cook, S. b. WetheraId,
and II H Lizear. Aternates, Capt W H.
Meyer, Second regiment; Lieut.. G. b.
Young, Engineer corps; and Privates W. E.
Calladay and c. McC. Taylor, of the First
regiment.
The team leaves the city the 31st at 1915
arriving there about 6 O'Clock. All of the
men from whom the team is to he chosen
have received invitations to attend a re-
ccption to be rendered all the visiting
marksmen on their arrival
The range at Ordway is in good shape
now, barring the winds and a ditch the
men have to jump in their skirmish firing.
1t gives them plenty OF exercise Rince it
keeps them busy jumping or climbing over
it, Complaints are not numerous or severe
but there is some little kicking.
The troop has been so disappointed over
its representation on the brigade team
that they are projecting" II is said
that gold medal WILDE purchased and that
Trumptcr Carroll will challenge the best
record makers on the team TO u trial of
skill, the medal to 20 to the winner. Carroll,
while i'll the Regular Army, secured great
reputation as a marksman.
TROUBLE IN THE SIXTH.
There is still trouble i'll Company A Sixth
Battalion The resignation OF Capt John
W Parsons left affairs in an unsettled con-
dition. An election was held for a sue
cessor. and First Lieut. ID V Chisholm was
chosen. The election, however, was in
valid, though the colonel OF the regiment
said it was all right This, though, has
little to do with the trouble.
Under date of August 10, Lieut.. Chisholm
forwarded his resignation to Major Bart
lett. 1t was on piece Of foolscap paper
and was not in military SHAPE. The com
uuniCation closed by saying: Il VIII ask
that you direct Lieut.. Walker to receipt TO
me for property" The resignation has
been returned to Lieut.. Chisholm indorsed
with the information that 1t was not in
proper form and suggesting that the regular
blank be used.
Capt. K. L. Wilson, of Company ID, has at
last resigned. Major Bartlett received the
resig nation the other day after waiting for
it Tor months. He at once issued orders
placing First Lieut.. Arthur q. SimOnsOn, of
Company b, in command. He has also ap-
pointed board CT survey To make an in
yeptory of the property for which Capt.
Wilson is responsible. 1t consists OF First
Lieut.. Simonson, First Lieut.. C. H Laird
and Sergt. +. Carroll Mattmgly, Company d.
Lieut.. Simonsonisr ready TO put the command
5 in good shape as soon as the property mat
ter is disposed Of.
The report Of a former board of survey on
Capt. Wilson has been forw arded to head
quarters without indorsement. 1t was
composed of Capt. ]. S. Tomlinson, First
Lieut.. C. II. Laird. and Second Lieut.. James
NJ. Farley. 1t was directed to fix the re-
sponsibility for the loss of certain clothing
"quipage and ordnance and ordnance stores
and failed to do so.
Notes From the Commands.
Private Calladay made great skirmish
run Thursday.
The enlistment OF Sergt. Major Paine
expired August s, and his intention is to
remain in private life. Major Bartlett and
Adjt Renner hope he Will reconsider, for
they think he was the finest sergeant major
in the brigade
Sergt. James W. Scott, Company A,
SlNth, mas applied Tor his discharge, on
account of sickness. The application has
been turned over to the surgeon.
Lieut.. j. Scott Johnson, Company C,
Engineer Corps, is laid up at the home OF
friends in Loudoun county, Va. Two weeks
ago he went out driving. The horse ran
away, and the lieutenant received severe
injuries. His head was badly cut, collar
bone and four ribs broken. He is out of
danger now.
The troop met last night to talk over
the proposed march next month. Capt
Barbour is in New York, and Lieut.

foot the bills for the trip to decide where
they shall go.
