Reported Abandonment of Sea Girt. 
Trenton, N. J., March 18.—It was rumored here to¬ 
day, on the return of General Wilbur F. Sadler from a 
visit to Washington, that Sea Girt is doomed to become 
a memory only, so far as the shooting matches on its 
ranees are concerned. It is expected the matches will 
be held this year at Sparta, Wis., where the Government 
lias spent a great deal of money in the construction of 
what is said to be the finest range in the world. 
The matches for the best shots in the world have been 
made at Sea Girt each summer for a number of years 
and were always the center of much interest to the hun¬ 
dreds of vacationists and others in the vicinity of Asbury 
Park. Some time ago it was said there were not enough 
ranges at the camp to accommodate the entrants in the 
events and that in all probability the contests this year 
would be held somewhere else, but serious thought was 
not given to the rumor until a few days ago, when it 
was learned that the contests this year would not be 
held there. 
General Sadler went to Washington and upon his re¬ 
turn he would not deny that Sea Girt has seen its 
last national or international shooting contest, but from 
other sources it was said that in all probability such is 
the case.
