REVOLVER PRACTICE.
Fourth Regiment Has De-
cided to Get Up a
Crack Team.

A movement is on foot in the Fourth
Regiment to inaugurate revolver shoot
ing and the establishment of the prac-
tiee which is gaining considerable prom
inence among the commissioned officers OF
the National Guard throughout the
State. This project was launched few
days ago by the Board of Officers. who
are of the opinion that the organization
of a crack revolver team would cause the
regiment to become popular, and place 1t
in position above the other regiments
The board at its last meeting discussed
the question and studied figures and
scores computed from the practice OF last
summer 1t was then decided to take up
the question in earnest, put it before the
officers and await the outcome. With this
object in view, the following circular was
prepared and it will be sent to the mem
bers of the commissioned staff, with a re-
quest for an early and favorable re-
ply

Fourth Regiment,

Jersey City, April 81 l5uo.
AT a recent meeting of the Board
of officers of this regiment, a com
mittee was appointed to make ar
rangements for practice shooting with
the revolver and for organizing a re-
yolver team, to enter the Revolver
team matches at Sea Girt, this coming
summer
The new military law recently ap-
proved, authorizes the issue of revol-
yers to commissioned officers OF the
State Militia, on the same terms as for
rifles; namely, bonded security.
The Department OF R1he Practice
provide for qualification shooting with
a revolver, and we find that thirty-one
officers qualified last season with the
revolver at the State range, but OF
that number, only three belonged to
the Fourth Regiment.
The committee believe that the
Fourth Regiment should be Well to
the font in this matter, as well as In
other matters, it is necessary that the
officers provide themselves with mill
tary revolvers, which may be pur-
chased, or drawn from Trenton by
requisition through the proper chan-
nels.
The committee favor making i'm
mediate arrangements for outdoor
practice shooting at the Marion range
and making arrangements Tor
establishing during the summer range
and making arrangements for estaD-
fishing during the summer in the
arrnory, a revolver range ready for use
at the opening of the next drill sea-
son.
The committee enclose and address,

uuested to make reply.
