CAPTAIN COOLIDGE
TALKS ON THE RIFLE
Delivers Interesting and In
structiye Lecture at ArmOry
Monday Night.

Captain Clayton Coolidge, inspector
of rife practice on the stan Of Colonel
G.. G.. Plummcr of the National Guard
of Utah, who is Il recognized expert i'll
all that pertains TO small arms and am
munition lccturod ut the armory Mon
day evening upon the military rifle
and its evolution. Captaiu Coolidge
spoke of tho bow which preceded the
rifle and which was first known among
the Greeks Romans and Norsemcu. He
told of the. great accuracy which they
attained and of the records which they
made Mt archery.
Captain Coolidge said that the Eng.
lish were the first TO put the bow into
active use at target practice. The bows
1T that time were powerful While one
man was loading a muskct another
could shoot six arrows IN the same
length of time, The Arabs were the
first TO introduce the gun This con
noted. for its long barrel, The Moors
followed, introducing tho gun through
western Europe.
Captain Coolidge spoke Of the va.
rIous makes of guns, and particularly
of those equipped with the flint locks.
The flint lock came into prominence in
1880. This old lock is still in use III
s'ulS pldcsS, IN eloDpalcu ledqcN Dul-
let being employed.
In the early reign Of the musket rife
practice WAS practically unknown, but
at the beginning of the civil war Il
large supply of muskcts of various dc.
signs and makes was imported. The first
successful gun was the Spencer. which
was used in the strife of 81, but not
extensively. The Winchester, which was
known at that time, was not developed
as 1t is today. Later the American
rifles were used in Japan, China and
in fact all over Europe, said Captain
Coolidge.
The Krag- -Jorgcnson, now being used
by the United States army, in the opin-
ION of many, is the best rifle of the
present day. Others, however. differ
many thinking that the Remington is
superior to any gun made, SAID Captain
Coolidge.
In regard TO the Krag, for years il
was impossible to get bullet suitable
for this gun, but Thomas, an inventor
OF some note, manufactured a bullet
which fitted the niche.
Mr.. Coolidge, in closing, said that the
army rifle used IN the United Kingdom
today rs far superior to that employed
by other nations. Before long ali rifles
VIII be equipped with a telescope for
long range shooting. Mr.. Coolidge said
General E. A. Wcdgwood also de.
liyercd a brief address, rcciting some
details of the competition meet mt Fort
Perry last summer. The lecture Mon
day evening was the first of a series
planned by General Wedgwood TO in.
terest riilemen in advancing their skill.
