April IS.— It has been our luck— ill-luck— for several weeks 
back to have a howling wind to shoot against. But anything that 
we have had heretofore was not a circumstance compared with 
the wind to-day. There was a regular hurricane blowing from the 
north — from the direction in which the targets are thrown, and 
which raised the targets to an immense height. Several times 
targets, after losing their force, given by the trap, were carried 
back by the wind to the shooting platform. Some of the boys 
were tempted to shoot at them when coming back. Event 8, for 
the Marshall cup, was, as usual, the principal one of the day. 
PI. E. Winans scored another win by breaking 18, which, with 
his allowance of 4 misses as breaks, scored him 22. Buckley was 
next high with 20 to his credit.
