Police Training. Musketry has been hampered owing to the lack of a suitable rife-range; but thanks to the public spirit of the Taikoo Rife Club, which has kindly placed its range at the disposal of the Police Force, when required, I trust that this difficulty will be completely over- come. Increased interest has been taken in revolver shooting, an impetus to which was given by the East Surrey Regiment, who pre- sented a very handsome trophy which is competed for quarterly by teams of nine men.
Addressing the men, H.E. the Governor said:-I am glad to be able to congratulate all ranks of the Force on faithful and efficient service rendered to the Colony daring last year under conditions which were exceptionally trying. The work of the European police was very meritorious and I note with satisfaction an increase in number of those who are qualifying The Police Training School has in the Chinese language.
