THE MINNESOTA STATE SHOOT. 



FORT SNELLING, Sept. 13.— The opening of the second annual 

 rifle tournament of the National Guard of the State of Min- 

 nesota at Fort Snellrng to-day was a decided success, so far as the 

 attendance of the riflemen of the regiments interested and the 

 weather could combine to make it so. The rnorniiit; was cloudy, 

 and just before the firing began, there wasa Ught sprinkle of raiii. 

 but the northwest wind springing up soon dispelled the cloutls.' 

 The light was good and the air cool and comfortable. The only 

 serious drawback was wind, which was stront; and gust>', varying 

 from 9 to 11 o'clock. The shooting, however, was excellent and 

 .shows a marked improvement over that of last year. 13ul few 

 spectators were present during the day; among theju were Col. 

 Bend, of the First Regiment; Col. King, inspector gen end of tlie 

 State, and Lieut. W. Fish, of tlie Fourth V. S, Artillery. Lieut. 

 C. C. Tear, of the Twenty-fifty Infantry ^\ as selected as range 

 officer and will continue to act in that capacity duriTiK tlie tour- 

 nament. The first match on the programme was an individual 

 match at 200yds. off-hand, 10 shots each, i lie number of entries was 

 30, 5 prizes were offered, the first awarded to Private J. W.Wi-ight, 

 of Company F, First Regiment, on a score of 43. Following is the 

 score: 



Pvt J Wright, Co F, 1st Regt..43 Lieut A E Chantler, 1st Regt..42 



Sergt Shanks, Co D, 3d Regt . .43 Pvt N F Revell, 1st Regt 40 



Lieut J E Cowie, 1st Regt 42 Lieut T C Clark, 1 at Regt 40 



Pvt C MaudUu, 1st Regt 43 Pvt R W Carpenter, 1st Regt..40 



For Match No. 3 no entries were made on account of the high 

 ^vind. This is the newspaper match, so called because the prizes 

 are one j ear's subscription to certain leading daily and weekly 

 journals. It Is a continuous match, remaining open throughout 

 the tournament. Private C. Maudlin, of the Ist i3eginient, won 

 the first prize in Match No. :3, with the excellent score of 13 out of 

 a possible ,50. This was an individual match, open for all, 5 shots 

 at 300yds., st^inding, and 5 shots a t 300yds., kneeling or sitting.
