A SILVER TROPHY.
Regiments Shoot for 1t at
Shell Mound.
The Best Score of the Day Was Made
by Company c of the First
Regiment.

The regimental shoot of the National
Guard for handsome trophy took place
yesterday at the Shell Mound range.
There was considerable complaint and
dissatisfaction at the manner in which the
shoot was conducted.
Major Willis Dodd, inspector OF rifle prac-
tice OF the Second Brigade, was given gen.
eral superintendence of the range and the
shooting in the general orders issued by
Brigadier-General Dickinson.
But he was not on hand at the REQUIRED
hour, and did not appear at the range dur
ing The day.
Again. a number of companies did not
respond to the order Those in the Fifth
Regiment. Located at Petaluma, Santa Rosa
and San Jose, claim that they did not re-
ceiye the orders in time.
In the absence of Rife Inspector Dodd,
Captain +. kuhls. Inspector OF rife practice
of the Second Artillery, and Lieutenant
BarTere assumed the responsibility of super
vising the shoot, which was conducted
under the rules OF the National Rife Asso-
citation. Both gentlemen gave general sat
lsfaction Tor the manner Ia which they pre-
sided over the contest.
Under the general orders ten men were
allowed 10 shoot from each COMPANY max
Ing total number of seventy to the regi-
ment. Many OF the companies were only
partially represented and others were not
represented at ALL Under the rules the
absent men were all counted as misses ard
went up against the general total OF the
regiment
The shooting as a whole was poor, and as
an explanation IL was said that the smoke
lung heavy on the air at the range and in
terfered with the shooters sight on account
Of lis density.
The shooting of the First Regiment was
very COCO and proved an exception TO the
general rule. This was particularly the
case with Company c. which made a score
OF 4l9. Taking all the scores, which were
not obtained, the First Regiment was the
winner OF the trophy. In order to be re-
talned the regiment must win the trophy
twice. The following are the scores as far
as they could be obtained:
