A, h, PkPE BREAKS
A RIFLE RECORD
Three Shots in a Twc-Inch
Circle on the Long
Range.
Several San Jose and Stockton
Marksmen Guests at
She'll Mound
The Germania Club Furn shiny Many
Pub ic Shooting Attractions
This Year.

There were lots of rife, pistol and mus
ket shooting at the She'll Mound rife
range yesterday. During most of the day
the light was good and the wind fair.
Later the light played odd pranks on the
targets and the wind died out, leaving the
smoke heavy on the range. For all that
many good scores were made.
The regular monthly medal shoot and
contests for special prizes of the Columbia
Pistol and Rife Club drew together a
large attendance. Three visitors spent
the day with tho members of the club.
Two are members of the Schue;zen Rife
Club of San Jose-Dr. F. H. Bangs and
DR.. A. M. Barker. The former ives the
winner of the silver service presented by
c. M. Shortridge when that club opened
its new range last year. Dr.. Barker is
also a medal winner. The gentlemen
were provided with their rifles and took a
lively part in the re-entry contests. The
third visitor was Mr.. Ph:lipson of the
Stockton Rife CLUB recently organized.
That club has q mem bership of thirty
rifemen. 1t is preparing to construct a
200-yard range near Stockton, on which
some good results are expected before
long. The Colum bia's s guests were much
interested in the results obtained by the
new nitro rife powder experiments. both
pure and for priming 1t is not unlikely
that the San Jose and Stockton Clubs will
ad opt the new Colum bia target, which re-
celved such a fattering vote in the recent
contest for standard target for the
United States.
A. II. Pape broke the three-shot rifle
record yesterday in the Bushnell medal
match. He made 1, l, 4-6, in three con-
seeutive shots. This means that two bull
lets struck the inch center and the third
was only two inches from the center, or
an average of three shots in two-inch
circle offhand, 200 yards. In this match
Pape yesterday lowered his record by six
points, his best thirty-shot scores averag-
ing ninety points on three-inch bullseye
hits.
Several other fine scores were also made.
Charlie Daiss in the ten-shot fifty-yard
diamond pistol record made 33 points, the
last year by A. B. Dorrells score of 30.
Ed Hovey ran up score Of 48, Creedmoor
count, in the Glindemann military mus
ket match. F. E.. Mason, first class, made
q record of 46, which is shooting in cham
