SIR LAN HAMILTON ON RIFLE-SHOOTING.

On the occasion of the prize-giving aftor the rifle moeting on Salisbury Plain, on June 11, Lient. Gun. Sir Ian Hamilton delivered the following remarks on the value of the new short rifle and, on the relative merits of rifle and bayonet :-

"I have watched your shooting with the despost interest and, not unnaturally per hupe, I watched my own competition most narrowly of all. When I saw your teamus of four rush over their 100 yards, and in the space of a few seconds knock down the four ting tiles not much bigger than a vad's hand, and just visible at 200 yards' range, I could not help thinking what a fine war weapon we possessed in our new rifs. I saw one team of Royal Eng. enter, armod with the long riflo. Before they could 1233 knock down a single one of the tiles op- posed to thom, the whole four of the tiles facing their rival toum were lying flattoned out on the ground. This is a very good practical proof, I think, of the superiority of the now short rifle, pol perhaps For the more old-fashioned style of competitions which consist in firing at
