The CaIifornians Lose the Con-
test.
SOME VERY GOOD SCORES MADE.
Possibility of a Regimental Shoot-The
Californians Good Marksmen-Some
previous Records-The Carson Men
and Their Previous Records. etc.

The result of the California end
of the international shoot reached
here yesterday by the Australia
and it was very satisfactory to the
boys here.
A majority of seventy points is
not to be sneezed at by any team,
and should there be another
match of the same sort Lieut.. Col.
Fisher is of the opinion that one
hundred points can be added to
the total made by the home team.
The local team had the advan-
tage in this shoot by having the
entire regiment to draw from while
the California team was picked
from two companies.
The San Francisco papers pub
lished the following concerning the
shoot
THE shoot that brought out the
largest attendance was the interna-
tional match between fifty picked
men from Companies c and G of
the National Guard and like
number from the eight companies
in Hawaii. The Hawaiians shot
Saturday at Honolulu, and their
scores will arrive by the next
mail. The local companies are
not all confident of success, as
many of their men never shot in a
match before, and their scores fell
away below the average. Captain
E. c. Subtitle and Captain J. w.
Dumbrell superintendent the match,
and Consul General Wilder looked
after the interests of the Ha-
waiians. The scores were as fol-
