scored 34S and the District. with 1913, at
the 2O0-yard stage. Again, it is explained
that the District men are shooting today

the Dryden match Friday, the real object
of the visit here being to make the best
possible showing in that contest.

the McAlpin trophy match the standing

Naval Prisoners to Plead.
An important change has been made in
the naval regulations for the government
of naval courts-martial for the trial of
minor offenSes against the naval code.
1t involves the pleading Of the accused
to the charge on which he is arraigned
for trial. Heretofore such trials were
conducted regardless of whether the ac-
cused desired to make any defense or not.
1t is believed that the taking of the plea
of the accused will greatly simplify the
proceedings of the summary courts es-
pecially in cases where the accused con-
fesses his guilt and does not desire to
make any defense. The change in the
practice. 1t is understood. was made by
the Secretary of the Navy on the recon-
mendation of Capt. Campbell, judge ad-
