thirty different events, and includes
almost every form Of rifle, carbine and re-

the matches are open to all comers. Some
thing of taste Of novelty will be injected
into the contests this year by the advent
of a single corps of bluejackets, who hope
to uphold the reputation Of Uncle Sans
sailor boys to the extent OF carrying or
at least a portion of the trophies.

Compliments District SOldiery.
Speaking of the recent encampment near
Leesburg, Va, newspaper Of Loudoun
county makes pleasing reference to the
citizen so!diery of the national capital. as
follows:
1.-The soldiers of the District of Columbia
National Guard, encamped near Leesburg,
visited our town in considerable numbers
during the week, and no trouble of any
kind occurred, barring little disturbance
on the first night of their arrival, when
our Chinese laundryman was annoyed by
a few of the younger element, but few
words from our officers prevented repeti-
tion, and good order was the rule there
after. We believe that their encampment
here was a pleasure to them, and equally
SO to our citizens. They are generally
body of tine-looking young men, kindly dis
posed, agreeable and gentlemanly. We are
sure they went home with a good opinion
Of our town, and left pleasant recollection
of them with our people.
Large numbers visited the camp daily
were much enjoyed, and to hear the con-
certs by the band, which is an unusually
fine cne.
THE colored battalion drilled admirably
and conducted themselves in good order,
and, with their white comrades in arms,
would present formidable line of battle
to an enemy.

utter lack of self-esteem 1t is really evi-

TO the worldwide trend Of the twentieth
century, will realize that there are very
few people In the world, no matter what
their talents or ability. who cannot be re-
placed. 1t Is a very rare character. indeed,
that Is imperatively necessary, and the man
