Sharpshooters and Their Beloved Sport at Shell
 Mound.
All the Leading Clubs Engaged in the Contest of
 Skill.
Despite Handicap of Numb Fingers Some Good Shooting
 Done.

The rifle and pistol ranges at Shell Mound presented yesterday the usual scenes of animation which result from a conclave of leading shooting clubs for contest in craftsmanship. The weather was favorable to the pur- poses in hand, so far as concerned clearness of atmosphere and lack of wind, but the low temperature which prevailed as the day waned gave many a marksman an excuse on the score of numb digits for not doing better work.
 The Independent Rifles shot their monthly medal shoot, 200 yards range, best out of fifty, with this score:
