| ton will shortly begin selecting the | fifty shots to represent this country, and as it is desired to secure the best | it is probable that all the rifle clubs l affiliated with the association will be i invited to compete for the honor of supplying members of the team. After
 the "try-Outs." a team will be select | ed. and when the match is shot the men chosen will shoot their strings on the range belonging to their own l clubs. If possible. the dates will be | arranged so that the shooting will be done in both countries, or all three. if Australia comes in. on the same date, ! though necessarily there will be some difference in actual time.
 The callenge provides that any rifle not exceeding 23-caliber may be used. with any sights not employing glass, any ammunition, and that any posi- tion may be assumed. The Americans will probably request that the latter provision be changed and that the pO- sitiOn be restricted to off-hand. It | is believed the challengers will agree to this.
 While 22-caliber rifle practice both
 in and out of doors, is growing in fa=-
 vor in this country with great rapid ity, the sport has not yet the popu-
 larity 'or the support it receives in
 England. Some of the greatest men
 and women of the latter country give
 it their earty encouragement and
 patronage. For example, the Society
 of Miniature Rifle Clubs is under the
 patronage of H. R. Fl. the Duke of
 Connaught, while the two trustees are
 the Duke of Norfolk. the premier duke
 of England and the Duke of West
 minister, the wealthiest peeer of that
 country. Associated with them in the
 management of the society are such
 distinguished personages as the
 MarchiOness of Londonderry. the Earl
 of Albemarle. ViscOunt Colville, It.
 Gen. Sir Ian Hamilton, Major Gen.
 Sir Alfred Turner It Gen. w. w.
 Briscoe, It. Gen. F. Lance, Major Gen.
 Sir R. B. Love, Major Gen. w. H. Mc-
 Kinnon, Major Gen. A. c. Codrington
 and many others. The president of the organization is none other than the great field marshal, Earl Roberts, who has been so active in promoting the cause of miniature rifle practice as well as military and civilian rifle practice in general throughout the British Empire. The only organiza- tion in this country which approaches the support given the English society is the National Rifle association, which includes among it's life members President Roosevelt Secretary of State Root. Judge Taft and a number of senators, representatives and gover- nors, as well as the leading men in the regular military service and in the National Guard

SEND MUCH MONEY HOME
Six Millions of Dollars Is the Esti
mate Sent Home BY Foreigners
From the United States.

New York, Dec 14.-American dol
lars will furnish Christmas cheer in
many humble homes in Europe this
year. Since December l, in fourteen
days, several million dollars in for
eign money orders have been issued
by the New York postoffice. The ag-
gregate is considerably in excess of
the figures of last year, though not up
to the records of some previous years.
1t is expected that the total, includ-
ing large sums that will be carried
away by the steamships sailing this
week, will amount to more than six
millions of dollars.
There was time when Ireland re-
ceived by far the largest proportion
of these Christmas gifts from her
sons and daughters who had taken
up new homes on this side of the At
lantic. In the last few years, how
ever, she has been closely pressed for
first place by Italy. "A single ship
sailing from New York last week car
ried nearly 100000 in money orders
sent by Italians living here TO rela-
tilves and friends in Italy. Large
sums are sent to the United Kingdom.
Germany, Hungary and Russia, with
Denmark, Austria, Sweden, Belgium,
Greece, The Netherlands and Switzer-
land following in the order named.

For many years experts have been
engaged in dcvising methods to reduce
cotton on-stalks to paper. Should this
invention prove success it would mean
great reduction in the price of paper
and the saving of a valuable and useful
material, the cottonstalk. which is a
source of annoyance to the cotton
grower at present. The price of paper
would be reduced for three reasons. the
large supply of raw material. the cheap
ness of production of the raw material
and the fine quality of paper manu-
factured from the fiber These three
important advantages of cottonstalk
paper would soon drive the wood pulp
paper off the market.

THE USE OF THE AUTOMOBILE

The recent Vanderbilt Cup automobil,
race which was won by an American
built car in the record breaking time
of sixty-fOur miles an hour, is an ex.
ample of what the new distance defer
can do.
The automobile is a necessity for
quick transportation, in localities that
are not reached by train or by the in
terurban electric railways. Especially
is this being proven true by political
speakers and candidates for offices, who
find it necessary to 60 from township
to township, over roads that are hun.
dreds of miles from any railroad.
In case of illness the physicians run
about is able to carry him to his patient
before any possible complications can
set in. As fire fighter the automobile
is taking the place of the tried and true
horse in all large foreign cities and in
many American cities. Large depart
ment stores have done away with the
old-time delivery wagon and their place
has been taken by automobiles.
In time of war, the automobile could
be used as quick transporter of troops,
and as such it is now used by the Ger
man army in all their military maneu-
vers.
At present the most important and
widespread use of the automobile is as
pleasure vehicle and as such it brings |
Joy and pleasure unto the thousands
who are able to own one, and joy to
the thousands who occasionally have
the opportunity to ride in an automo-
bile.
But the age of the automobile hasn't
arrived yet. The invention is vet in
its infancy. The possibilities of the au-
tomobile will only be discovered in years
to come, when the price of what is now
luxury, will place it within the reach

two crossings in Machir place, a subdi
vision in which Mr.. NOVEL; is financially
interested. The charge that the rail-
road ignored city official of Columbia
was so serious as to merit investiga-
tion. In that connection, reporters for
the University Missourian gathered
facts regarding the Wabash service and
about Wabash profits in Columbia,
showing that its receipts here at sl4,-

Figures were set forth as to the av-

CTUDENTS in the Department OF
Journalism at the University OF
Missouri had a valuable practical
illustration of the power of the press
in the outcome of the publicity cam
paign conducted by the University Mis-
sourian for better Wabash service on
the Columbia branch.
As result of these publications,
General Manager Miller and Vice -Presi-
dent Delano have personally pledged
themselves to the University Missourian
that new rolling stock will replace the
passenger coaches on the branch, and
that new station will be built here as
soon as a deal for a site, now under

way, can be consummated.
The University Missourian publica
tions so aroused public sentiment that
the Wabash business on the Columbia
branch fell off appreciably, and the
railroad could no longer afford to ignore
the demands for better service.
The promises of improvements were
brought about through the force of pub
lie sentiment, expressed through the col
umns of the Missourian.
The publications about the Wabash
service began Oct I, after w. B. NOVEL;
had complained to the City Council that
Wabash officials ignored City Attorney
Rothwell, and that they refused to build

, that the Columbia branch of the Wa
bash railroad is the richest stretch OF
track in the system, from the stand
point of profits, and that in spite OF
this it is the most poorly equipped.
The last publication in this connec-
tion was Oct. 81, when the specific
items of Wabash receipts here were told.
The promises of improvements were
made Oct. 81.
Students did the larger part of the
work in gathering these facts, and the
cartoons printed were drawn by a stu
dent. The work was of practical value
in their course of training for journal
istic work.
