PROSPECTS or OUR RIFLEMEN.


IF matched against any rifle team at present
Organized in Great Britain, the American team
will probably be victorious. This tho Irish
team, themselves the champions OF Oreat
Britain, having won their position by sue
ccssion of victories, now concede. But
project is on foot to make up team ny
selection from the leading rifle clubs OF Great
Britain which, it is hoped, will prove more
formidable competitors than those the Amer
leans vanauished at DOllymOunt. Nothing Is
plainer in that contest than that it was lost to
the Irish chiefly through the low scores OF the
inferior members of their team Comparing
the four highest scores of both teams, we find
that Gen. Dakin surpassed Mr. VII
son by count OF only two. COi
Gldcrsleeve exceeded Mr.. johnson also
by only two. Col. Bodinc's score is
only one ahead of DR.. Hamilton. Lieut.
Fulton was exactly even with Mr. Pollock.
All these scores range between 16l ana
165. The slight differences in favor OF
the Americans can DO more than accounted
for by the Encouragement under which
the Irish marksmen were labOring, every I'M
lucky shot on their side drawing forth angry
cries and grOans of deriSiOn from the tumlltu-
Gus crowd of spectators. Had the contest been
between the above named four OF each team the
result might have been different But when
we compare the other scores in the same man
ner it is easy to see where the poor shooting
was. that called forth kisses and grOans which
added to the misfOrtuncs of the lrlshmen. MIR.
Yalc's targets scored 100 against Mr.. Mcken-
mas 119, and Mr.. Coleman made 1876 to Mr..
Il of tbn "
the Americans won, was plainly lost by the
infcrority of two members of the Irish team.
In case the project of selecting a team from
all Great Britain is carried out, we must con-
slider what is the best that our team is likely
to do against the best of English, Irish and
Scotch malksmen. If circular bulls eyes, and
the new method of notation for them are
adopted it may be well to bear in mind that our
team as IL unit is capable of scoring rather more
than out of every possible 8 of the count.
The superior shooting of some of the MEM
bers of the Irish team on the day after
the DollymOunt contest, may be set
off against the score of III which our
Lieut. Fulton made last Fall in the in
tcrnatOnal match at Creedm0Or, which
has never been surpassed. Mr.. Coleman, whose
score was the lowest at Dollymount, has since
then proved by great triumph bis full equality
with the other members of the team.
Col. Gildersleeve, in shooting off the twice
made ties last Wednesday, placed his own
record for nerve in the decisive moment
alongside of Col. Bodine's at Creedmoor.
Taking all the facts before us, ii
seems every way probable that while Sc
lected team from all Great Britain will give
very close match with the Americans, we may
still fairly hope that victory will be with our
countrymeu.
