S. army, who is an ex pert rifleman. When the actual fir ing begins, it may be necessary to name replacements for the instruc tional staff, in case any of the be ginners make mistakes. The course is a limited one and :s given in two sections. The maximum number who may enroll in the course is fifty. , The work is open at first to the commissioned cadet officers and warrant officers, but in case the maximum is not reached, it will be thrown open to the sophomores of the military department. The work is not regularly provided for in the schedule and no credit is given for it, bpt the interest has been very great and the work is progressing vapidly because of this fact. The instruction is given in periods of one hour a week. The first four weeks are to be spent in, mastering the nomeclature of the Colt .45. and after the holidays target practice la the gallery will commence, according to Captain Nix. Tbis work will con tinue until spring, when work on the range outside will commence. ?Tatcbes will be held between the companies and with other organizations if pos sible.
