The weather throughout the shooting was unfarorahle, but in 

 Bpite of the wind, -vvhich at timen diverged the bidlets from air. to 

 eight inohoa from their true line of flight, the skill of the marks- 

 nieu overcame it in a great degree, and the scores made are the 

 beat ever recorded. A year ago the highest average was eighteen, 

 tile honors going to Mr. Bacon, of JameatoflTi, New York. It wiU 

 1)6 seen that there ia a marked improvement m the scores made 

 last week. The following 1b the summary of the scores of the 

 marksmen who shot out the matches iu which they entered mtli-

Pet Barber shot in nineteen matclies, three of which were drawn. 

 Hia average on the balance was 20 1-16, which would have been 

 reduced had his full score been shot out. The honors of the tom- 

 uivment belong to Mr Tyler, who won the special prize on TUm-s- 

 day, besides making the higheat aggregate coiuit and average 

 shooting in all the mat-chos. His ooni|)etiturn were among tbe 

 moat uoted experts iu thio section of the country, who did their 

 level best to change the result without avail, and a number diew 

 out ot the toiu'nameut at the end of the second day, thus virtually 

 ooiifessing that the gait was loo fast to be agroeidile.

 club not only to hokl lirsl-class matches, open to the proviuec or 

 Dominion, but wouJd also make it possible to hold the return inter- 

 national match with tlio Amateur Bilie Club of Kew York, a most 

 desirable end to have in view. 



As usual the matches were divided into the Snider and small- 

 bore series, the former at 200, 500 and COO yards, and the latter at 

 900 and 1,000 yards. In the f(ffmer, A. Miller, ot tho Thirteenth 

 Battalion, came out easily fu'st with the e.'icellent score of 81), 

 wiuuing the Snider rifle presejited by Lieut. Col. Gibson, and the 

 Snider gold modal for the year, which last year was won by Col. 

 Oibaon with a si'ore of 92.

 The coiTirnunication of Mr. Gralin is doubly interesting for the 

 deductions in model cited, and for the proposition to miOse use 

 the miniature yacht as a subject of experimeut before risking 

 heavy stuns iu tlieir reproduction on a large scale. Tlie observa- 

 tions on model rrmst be accepted as of the utmost value, and 

 we are inclined to lay ranch store upon tho conclusions Mr. Grahn 

 has come to. His exi!erience is at once more extended and 

 ins dedncti.jus more accurate than those any buildra or' 

 oivner of large ya.chts can olibr, for llie reason that ho builds a
