DEFENCE NOTES.
A large number of members of the Tarannki liiiles visited the range yesterday, and some good scores were made. Corporal Marctt struck something like his old form, niakin" 101 out of a possible lOj at 20Uyds, 500 yds, and 000 yds. His score of 33 (out of 35) at 200 yards was made ou the reduced bulls-eye, six-inch circle instead of seven. His range total for OOOvds, 000 yds, and 7011 yds was 99. If he can continue to shoot up to this standard he should just about annex again the Xorth island Champion Belt. That's all the harm his comrades wish him, too. the headquarters volunteer companies will parade ou Thursday next for inspection by Colonel Bauchop, officer commanding the district. This will probably be a daylight parade.
