GOOD SCORES BY NATIONALS.

The dark and rainy weather yesterday
had little effect on the attendance at the
shooting ranges at Shell Mound. Indeed.

really remarkable proportions.
Most of the afternoon both range build
ings were crowded; also the pistol build
ing and the lOng-distance ranges. Not
Witbstanding the wind and the lack
of light some excellent scores were made.
A large number of National Guardsmen,
principally the Nationals. used the 800
yard target 1t was merely practice, how
ever, as the first medal long distance
shoot will be held month hence.

sixty-ive center shots. The best OF these
