GUARDS BREAK CAMP
AND RETURN HOME
BEST SCORE IN RIFLE PRACTICE
IS MADE BY A. F. SMITH—SEC
OND, PRIVATE JONES OF
COHPANY 1 .
Companies G and I of the Ark
ansas State Guard broke camp
yesterday afternoon after a week’s
practice on the range at Camp X.
O. Pindall. Some extra good rec
ords were made by the min, and
the officers expressed themselves
as well pleased with the camp and
with the riflle rouge. There was
some fault found with the location
of the camp in a place so difficult
of access, and so far from town.
Tn going out to the camp last Sun
day, some of the men lost their
way, and it was a tiresome march
in yesterday afternoou in the in
tense heat.
A complete record of the scores
made, has not been made out as
yet, but will be prepared in a few
days. The best score of the week
was made by A. P. Smith in the
skirmish run of 600 yards. He
made the run in five minutes, and
scored 37, although it was raining
hard at the time. Private Jones of
Company I, made the best record
at points out of a possible 100.
Corporal Rushing of Company G
was second with 29. Matheney of
Company Cl was first at the 300
yard line, with a score of 29.
A number of people visited the
camp yesterday, among them be
ing Major Harrison and Col.
Pearson, of the Arkansas State
Guard, Major McCrory, J. W.
Wilder and his wife and daughter,
and W. R. Cain. Senator Patter
son was also a visitor earlier in
the week. While only about 80
men were in camp everything was
conducted in regular military style.
The men complained that they
could not buy any chickens, to say
nothing ot getting a little practice
in foraging. The nearest they
came to anything of the sort was
to milk two or three lonely old
cows that came around the camp to
eat what stray bread the soldiers
scattered about camp.
The two companies left camp
about 4 o’clock yesterday after
noou and came in to Little Rock
where they stacked arms in front
of the state house. Company 1
left for Helena at 1 o’clock this
morning, while company G will
leave for McCrory this morning.
These companies are to be con
gratulated on their neat appear
ance. and upon the manner in
which the men composing them,
conducted themselves.
The officers of Company G are:
Captain R. B. Keating, Lieutenant
H. P. Riggs, and Lieutenant H.
A. Walker. Of Company I Cap
tain J. C- Myers, Lieutenant Clif
ton, and Lieutenant Guess. Cap
tain Keating was the ranking
officer of the camp.—Gazette.
Company G has just gotten
home from its first trip to the tar
get range at Little Rock and from
reports gathered from the Little
Rock papers, the boys had a very
successful week. Not only did the
company make a very nice record
as marksmen but they brought
home the record of being the
neatest and best behaved company
of the Guard that had ever passed
through Little Rock: Co. G was
several times taken for a company
of regulars on the way to garrison
Port Logan H. Root. The target
range is quite a distance from Lit
tle Rock about 7 miles and the
men did not get into the city very
often especially at night. Capt.
Keating and his lieutenants went in
to the city one night while in camp
and were thanked personally by
the high officials for the nice gent
lemanly behaviour of the company
while in the city. The camp was
very healthy and no flies. Very
few cases of sickness were report
ed. Prom the best records the
News learns that Ed Taylor
made the highest average score

with 77 points out of a possible
100. Louis Rushing came second
with 75 and Brit Matheney 3rd
with 73. Bert Smith made the
highest score ou the skirrqish run
37 out of a possible 50. Louis M.
Rushing at the 600 yard range
made 29 out of a possible 50.
Pete McMurtry made 31 out of a
possible 50 at 400 yards. Jim
Johnston would have ranked
among the highest had he not lost
a score by shooting the wrong tar
get. Taking everything in con
sideration it was a most successful
shoot and Arkansas can always
figure on the McCrory Company
carrying off the honors in shooting
as well as behaviour.
