DECLARE AMERICANS BORN
TO HIT THE BULLS EYE.

CAMP DIX, Aug. 1.-Two days
on the rifle range for students of the
Civilians Military Training School
have convinced officers that native
Americans, who predominant in these
classes, come naturally by the science
of craftsmanship. Splendid scores
are reported to have been hung up
by the engineer students in Their
initial trip to the rifle pits and the
students of the Blue, or advanced
class, put a further feather in their
caps by smashing many bulls-eyes
in pistol work. Students also were
introduced to automatic rifle and
shoot these weapons later in the
month.
The hike to and from the rifle
range and the overnight camp
there brought the young soldiers the
most strenuous experience of their
month in the training camp. They
both looked and felt like veterans
when they returned this morning.

PASSENGERS ON LOCAL
ENDANGERED BY EXPRESS

SOUTH AMBOY, Aug. 17:-What
might have proved a costly chance
turned out otherwise last night
when a Central railroad express
train going south ran past a Penn
sylvania railroad local train due in
this city at $3.50 but which was
three minutes late.
Both trains would have met at
the station had not the engineer of
the Pennsylvania train stopped sew
eral feet away from where the pas
sengers usually alight. The fact
that all of the trainmen of the local
were on the train steps holding back
their passengers is probably the best
reason why several persons did not
step in front of tho express.
In conversation with a trainman a
News representative was told that
under no circumstances should the
express be allowed to pass the on
coming local, which was on the far
track from the station. The fact
that no one was injured, spectators
said. is no reason why something
should O. be done in the matter to
safeguard the travelling public from
an experience enacted at the same
station not so many years ago when
a youth was killed by a passing
train as he moved toward a local
standing at the station.
