Congratulated by Metcalf.

Secretary Metcalf has written a letter
of congratulation to the major general
commandant, Marine Corps, in which he
says:
The department has noted with great
satisfaction the most excellent work done
by the team representing the Marine
Corps in the shooting tournaments recent
ly held at Camp Perry, Ohio, and Sea
Girt. \. ]. The efficiency of a soldier is
largely dependent upon his ability to shoot
accurately, and the department, therefore,
records its appreciation of the work done
by this team. which has reflected great
credit on the corps and the service. The
result is the more satisfactory when con-
sideration is given to the fact that this
team was selected from but small quota
of the corps on shore duty in the United
States which was available for this pur-
pose.
You will communicate to the officers
and enlisted men of the team the de-
partments views as above expressed

The Sea Girt rife range is undisputedly
the finest in the country Not only its
location is delightful. but the character Of
the range is almost perfect The teams
of the various states delight to come here.
not only because of the character of our
climate and the proximity of the range
TO the ocean. but because also OF the fact
that it is near the great cities of New
York and Philadelphia and is attractive
in every way. New Jersey has always
done everything she could to promote rifle
practice. In this policy think she has
been wise, and its continuance may be
confidently relied upon.
Gen. Spencer has cndea red himself to
rlfiemen of the country, and we all feel
greatly hunored in being his guests to-
night and at the compliment which has
been paid him by his election president
of the Association of American, Inter
national Riflemen. Members of this aSso-
citation are composed entirely of those
who have in some way taken part in in

tanning a stop watch and fob. on which
were the coat of arms of the state of New
Jersey. and presented it to the general as
token of esteem of the rifemen who
were this year at the Sea Girt range.

President J. w. E. Bowen, of
Cannon Theological Seminary
has been invited by the Metho-
dist Preachers Meeting Of the
Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, in the city of Atlanta to
deliver an address before that
body in June upon the EIuca
tional, Moral and religious Status
of the Negro, particularly with
reference to Atlanta and the
state of Georgia. This is the first
time that a Negro has been in
vited to address this representa-
tive body of white men in this
Metropolitan city in the South.
1t is very significant recognl-
ton Of the influential position
occupied by Doctor Bowen in the
community life of Atlanta. And
the invitation is all the more sig
nificant when it is held in con-
trast with the famous Atlanta
Riot and the part endured ard
suffered by Doctor Bowen during
those awful days in protecting
the property of the church and
in defense of our helpless people.
1t is exceedingly gratifying that
these representative Southern
white men have opened tnemsel-
yes for statement of the case
from one who is so frank and so
competent to speak as President
Bowen. We congratula ate him on
the opportunity that awaits him
to speak for the race and we con-
graduate ourselves that our
cause will have a faithful and
manly presentation Southwes-
