.98, so, according to statement of the
commanding general, it is readily seen
how materially the District guard aided
in reducing the 1881 figure from 1859
per cent to 497 in 1882. Moreover.
the percentage of 98 was bettered by
two other States only. Maryland with
80 and Arkansas with IA.
The commanding general said that
he is much pleased to note this ex-
cellent cooperation within the Dis
trict guard. and congratulated all con-
cerned. He said that he hoped that
next Summers record will be even
better and that arrangements will be
made to cut the percentage in each
unit to zero.
For some time the War Department
has been trying to reduce the number
of new men sent into the training
camps with the militia organizations.
1t has been the practice for number
of years to allow men to enlist just
prior to camp, and many Of them did
SO just for the purpose Of making the
trip into the field. However, it was
found that with large numbers of re-
cruits the actual training of the vet
Grams was slowed down materially. The
companies were badly depleted while
the new men were sent to recruit
SS1roolo, o1o tuc o1So11ADoIAoA4o scueIoAy
were hampered.
It has been the practice Of the local
guard for some time to cut off enlist
ments several months before camp 50
that only trained men were taken.

carried either by bus or rail. It Is what
a continued development may portend
for the future, rather than the COM
petitive aspect at the moment, that

Calculation discloses that the aver
age trip per air passenger was 1884
miles In 1880, as compared with an
average Of 759 miles per passenger per
road for non-commutation railroad
passengers In the same year. This lends

press also increased In volume. but
airmail declined during the year, due
both to higher postage rates and to

District National Guard

Organizations Of the National Guard
Of the District Of Columbia will be con-
centrated in two camps for their an
nual field training work this Summer.
according to information received from
the Sd Corps Area Headquarters of the
Army at Baltimore by Maj. Gen. Anton
Stephan, commander of the local mi
litia as well as the National Guard
units of Maryland and Virginia which
form the 29th National Guard Division.
The largest camp will be held at the
Maryland State site, called Camp Al
bert C. Ritchie at Cascade, Md. This
will be held from August to 20. To
this camp will go the 29th National
Guard Division Staff, headed by Gen.
Stephan; the Headquarters Special
Troops, 29th Division, commanded by
Maj. William T. Roy; the Headquarters
Detachment, Special Troops, 29th Di-
vision, and Headquarters Detachment.
29th Division, commanded by First
Lieut.. David w. Milne; the 121st Regi-
ment of Engineers, headed by Col. John
w. Oehmann: the State Staff and De-
tachments; Company A, 372d Infantry,
and Medical Department Detachment,
372d Infantry, commanded by Capt.
Arthur c. Newman and Capt. Albert
Ridgeley. respectively.
The 260th Coast Artillery. command
ed by Mai. Walter w. Burns, will take
its period Of field training at Fort Mon
roe, Va, beginning August 1S and end
ing August 81.
The announcement that the majority
Of the troops are to go to Cascade is
expected to be received with consider
able interest by the personnel. Many
of them like the encampment at that
place because it is near Summer re-
sort, and many opportunities for rec
reation are provided when the men are
off duty. On the site is lake where
boating and swimming are provided
free of charge.
A letter from the Sd Corps Area
Headquarters says that the reports OF
small arms practice of the local guard
for the target year, 1882, indicate that
the local organization, as a whole, has
attained proficiency in small arms
practice to the extent indicated, as
follows:
Pistol course-Total number on rolls
required or authorized to take the
course, 597; total number completing
course. 487; per cent required to attain
proficiency. 70; per cent actually at
tanned, 832 enrolled strength last day
of target season, SGT; number qualified,
268; per cent required to attain pro-
ficiency, 80; per cent actually attained,
44.8.
Rifle course-Most organizations fir
ing the rifle and automatic rifle at
tanned more than the required per-
centage of qualifications, with each
weapon, but failed to have 70 per cent
Of those required to fire, actually COM
plete the course. In many units the
number excused shows q failure to en-
force the regulations as to who shall
take the course.
The letter from the corps area head
quarters says that in the above COM
putation officers with more than Is
years of service who did not fire were
disregarded. -
The Chief of the Militia Bureau Of
the War Department has informed the
various State Guards as to the per-
centage of recruits in camps. For the
year 1880, the percentage of recruits
to veteran guardsmen in camp was
1873: in 1881, 1859; In 1882, 4.97.
