Providence, R. I., Revolver Club. 
It has been several months since we have had an op¬ 
portunity to record any pistol scores, by our all-around 
crack man,- Wm. Almy. Like most of us, he has been 
too busy to indulge in much practice; but unlike most 
of us, the rest has not caused any rustiness, as his 50- 
shot score of 442 proves. 
Some time ago we were taunted by the Taunton Rifle 
Club, who wanted to shoot a match with military rifles, 
ten men to a team. This was out of the question with 
us, as we had but three or four men who knew anything 
about the military weapon, and they were rusty. During 
the past month or two, however, interest in this style of 
shooting has picked up, and we now have five or six 
men who can handle the Krag in fair shape, and propose 
to trolley over to Taunton if we can get five men to¬ 
gether some Saturday afternoon. It will be_a nice ride if 
the weather is good; we will have a chance to meet some 
congenial fellows; that is where our end of the game 
comes to a brilliant finish, for the result of the match 
can be easily forecast. But if those five men can get 
away from work, they will be over the Massachusetts line 
ere long. 
There was an extra good attendance at the Saturday 
shoot, many familiar faces being in evidence, including 
the .45 “twins.” Lack ot practice showed poor scores, 
and but a few could be secured. 
Mr. Luther raised our 25yd. Standard rifle record with 
a pretty 93, all bullseyes. To fully appreciate this, one 
wants to try a few shots at the inch bull at 25 yards, 
an 80 is good work on this little terror, with us.
