SHOOTING AT sEAeiRT.
RIFLEMEN FROM SEVERAL
STATES COMPETE.

tBy Telegraph to -Pilot.)
Seagirt, n. j., Sept. 4.-With n large
list of entries of representative rife
men from several States, the eighth an
nual meeting of the New Jersey Rifle
Association opened to-day on their
ranges here. 1t will continue through
the entire week, and the events include
sweepstakes, individual and team
matches.
The Wimbledon cup, the Hilton tro-
ply and Presidents cup matches, with
the Interstate team matches, will be
the ones of greatest interest.
The shooting to-day was exclusively
pool work and individual matches. y
dozen states are represented by indi-
ground are those OF the District of Co.
lumbia, Georgia and New Jersey.
The ranges are in perfect condition,
and the changes in the rules and reg
ulations insure, it is thought, perfect
fairness to all entered.
The most promising candidates for
the military championship of America,
the Presidents cup, are Lieutenant r.
Chetham Wilson, of Georgia; Colonel
Cam, of Georgia; DR.. Hudson. of New
Jersey; Private w. d. Austin, OF Geor-
gia, and Lieutenant Payne, of Massa-
chusctts. Battey, of Georgia, who won
the event Of the last meeting. is this
year suffering from hay fever which
he says, has impaired his eyesight, but
he is looked upon rs Il strong factor in
the competition.
The first shot OF the meeting was fired
by Lieutenant Wilson. of Georgia, in n
pool with Lieutenant Payne, of Massa-
chusetts. Lieutenant Payne made the
first bulls eye.
The following are partial scores of
to-day's shooting:
