STATE GUARDSMEN TO
 CONTEST FOR TROPHY
Citizens of IIIion, N. V, Make Gift to Connecticut National Guard.

A small bronze statue, the gift Of the citizens of IlIion, N. Y, to the National Guard of Connecticut in cOmmemOratiOn and celebration of the one hundredth anniversary Of the making of the first Remington rifle at IlliOn, was received Wednesday at the office Of Adjutant General George M. Cole. The statue is to be a craftsmanship prize contested for annually by the various companies of the guard. In view of the uncertainty Of the time of return of the CCnnec- ticut troops from the border it is improbable that the first contest for the statue will be held before next year. Similar statues have been pre- scented by the citizens of Illion to the National Guard of every state in the Union.
 The statue was cast from an orig inal Aibin Polasek. a Bohemian sculptor, and it stands three feet high, including the ebony hase. It Poortrays the fiure of EliphaIet original rife. Sturdy legs are firm ly planted beside an anvil, and the figure is draped in a gunsmith's apron which falls nearly to the knees, giv- ing at once feeling of shop and craft and faint classical touch.
 One lifted hand grasps the barrel of the new made gun. The other hand is held slightly away from the body With fingers OutSpread, and sug- gestS the expansive, half-relaxed mood of one who has done his task and turns to explain the work to others or pauseS to dream of the future.
 At the base of the statue is 9 bronze plate bearing the following in scriptiOn:
 Remington Centennial, 1S16-1916.
 Trophy
 For Proficiency in Marksmanship Presented by the Citizens of IlIion, N.
 Y. to the Organized Militia of the
 nited States for Perpetual
 Competition.
 COmmemorating the Making of the First Remington Rife by EliphaIet
 Remington, Jr., at Illion, 1916.
 The making of the first Reming- ton rifle at the town of IIIion, in 1916, marked the beginning Of the firearms industry in America. It is in rever- ence to the memory of Ehphalet Rem Ington, jr., that the town of IlIion has presented the statues to the National Guard of all the states to be used as shooting trophies. The presentations also will form part Of the general centinnial observance plan, the cen- ter of which will be three days of speeohmaking, games and pageants at Illion next month. Governor Charles S. Whitman of New York Senator Warren G. Harding cf Ohio, and Major General Hugh L. Scott chief of staff of the nited States army, will be among the speakers.
