LITTLE RIFLES KEPT BUSY.

Sunshine and clouds, bright light and
shadows, together with varying winds,
were the elements that the rif1emen at the
Shell Mound rifle range had to contend
with yesterday. However, several made
good scores, and those who did not made
the light and wind responsible for the bad
recorus. The Columbia Pistol and Rifle
Club kept the markers on four targets
busy all day, and nearly all of the matches
being re-entry contests the pistol and
rife shooters kept banging away until
they had something to show for their con-
sumption of ammunition.
The fact that several in this organiza-
ton are expecting challenge from some
other organization has caused mum ber
of Colum bias to make special efforts with
the military musket, as this is one of the
firearms that many would be behind in
an all-round match. While doing so they
are also making special efforts to secure
the Glindemann military rife medal. J.
E. German made his first trial with the
musket yesterday, and in two 10-shot
strings ran up A and As points, military
count F. III. ushnell has good reasons
for believing that he can shoot the mill
tary arm, making 45, 46 and 4S points.
The cash prizes on flags Gnch centers)
were valuable this month, being worth
over Sc each. F. o. Young was so fortu-
nate as to have two and Adolph Strecker
one.
The competition with the 22-caliber rife
in the fifty-yard range is also spirited. T..
Jacobson and Ed. Hovey are in the lead
for the mems medal and Mrs. L. J. Crane
for the ladies' medal. Yesterday Mrs.
Crane brought out three flags in success
sion for inch centers and scored nine.
The scores on both ranges were as follows:
