Norwich Shooting Club Tournament. 
Norwich, Conn., Sept. 22. —The rainy weather marred 
the tournament, though it was a success even with that 
handicap. The rain began at the time the competition 
began and continued till the end of the day. About 
thirty shooters were in attendance, and all reported a 
satisfactory time. Had the weather been good, there is 
no doubt but what fifty would have been in attendance. 
Over 3,000 targets were thrown. 
Mr. J. A. R. Elliott was high gun for the day with a 
score of 148 out of 160, and Mr. G. S. Fanning was 
second with 147. High amateur average was to the 
credit of Mr. P. H. Powell, of Newport, R. I., who 
scored 145 and won the prize rifle. 
Mr. Harry Metcalf, of Rockville, won the eastern 
Connecticut championship with the excellent score of 
95 out of 100. He is only 18 years old, and it is the 
opinion of many shooters that he is the best shot in 
the State. 
During the shoot Secretary Brown had charge at the 
office and everything moved off smoothly. Lunch was 
served at noon to all shooters and spectators present. 
The trade was represented by J. A. R. Elliott, J. S. 
Fanning, S. Haight and G. M. Wheeler. Souvenirs in 
the shape of scarfpins and badges were distributed by 
Messrs. Fanning and Haight. 
Shooters were present from New York, Boston, New¬ 
port, Hartford, Willimantic, New London and other 
places. The scores:
