Tough and trumped up story that his
wife was very sick and had written him
to come home. The captain knew some
OF Pats tricks, SO he said to him that he
had received a letter from the lady and
that she had told him not to let Pat come
home as he got drunk, broke the furni-
ture and mistreated her shamefully.
Pat saluted and started to leave the
room, but on reaching the door turned
and said:
"Sir, may speak to you-not as an
officer-but as mon to mon?"
Eyes, Pat; what is it,"
"Well, sor, what I'm after sayin' is
this remarked Pat, going close to the
captain and lowering his voice, that

liars that the Lord ever made, I'm not

BETTER CRAFTSMANSHIP.
Cup Given, to One New York Regi-
ment to Encourage Rifle Prac-
tice Among Its Soldiers:

That a soldier who knows how to use
his rifle, and can send the bullet to the
''bulls-eye' is worth a dozen others
who are poor marksmen, has been
proved over and over again in every war
in which this country has engaged, and
in every war which the world has
known since firearms were invented.
Old soldiers can recall dozens of inci-z
dents which occurred during their cam.
paigns which forcibly demonstratedthe
vital Importance. of accurate shooting.
Often the final results of battle have
depended upon this one condition.
Admiral Dewey's victory in Manila
bay was due to the expert craftsmanship
of his men, and in the recent Russo-Jap-
anese engagement it was the ability OF
Admiral Togos gunners to shoot
straight and true that sent, the powerful
Russian fleet to the bottom. And it Is
no less true that. the sharp shooter

formed, one being trained along the
central wire in each direction. These
canes are for the first crop.
The next year the canes are cut
back to about three buds each, and as
the new shoots put out they naturally
grow and drop over the side wires to-
which they fasten themselves by ten
drills. No summer pruning or tying
is necessary with this system. The
fruit is we'll shaded, and yet the
foliage and new growth are so dis
tribu ed that there is always a free
circulation. of air around the fruit.
At pruning time the canes which
bore this years crop are all cut back,
except the two nearest the main stalk.
which form the bearing wood for the
next year. As the vines become old
er four canes may be left.

among land forces is essential to etfec-
tive fighting!
Old soldiers as we have said realize
this fact perhaps more than doEothers,
and this is the reason they are taking.
such interest lin the efforts tosraise the
standard Of marksmanship among the
mi1itiamen throughout the country. In
fact it is an old soldier, Gen. George w.
Wingate, who has organized the Public
School Athletic League in New York
city and made one of the important fea-
lures of the drilling of the boys the
practice with the Krag rifle. President
Roosevelt in a personal letter to the
general commended especially this part
OF the work.
In view of all this, and as an indication
OF the encouragement which state
militiamen are from time to time re-
ceiving, the old soldiers will be inter
ested to learn that the Seventy-first regi-
ment of the National Guard of the state
of New York has been presented with a
magnificent silver cup, valued at 81, 500,
which will be competed for by the men,
bers of the regiment on the rifle range.
1t is the gift of former colonel of the
regiment, Col Henry p Martin.
Represented ON the cup are four
epochs in the history of the United
States in which the army took prom
inent part, with portraits of the four
generals who commanded those epochs
and who became presidents Of the
United States-Gen. Washington, Gen.
Jackson. Gen. Taylor and Gen. Grant.
Other portraits on the cup include
those of Gems. Scott. Sherman and Sheri-
dan and Abraham Lincoln On another
side the rifle range at Creedmoor is
represented.
