To Citizens belongs the honor of being game enough 
to finish, although losing every match. 
Osborn has the distinction of shooting herself out of 
the prize list of Class F to a position in the class above. 
Is there anyone who isn't glad to see Belleville’s 
plucky struggle for three years rewarded? 
The question of suitable prizes for first and second 
place in the different classes is now in the hands of the 
executive committee. 
One record has heen broken, Pittsburgh raising 
Portland’s 1147 of last year one point, to 1148. Pittsburgh 
had in that score three shots that were close and was 
given the lower count.

New York City, March 21.—A. E. Wells, Corporal 
C. iMartens and Private J. Bianchi, of Company H, 71st 
Regiment, N. G. S. N. Y., established a new regimental 
record in the sixth annual shoot for the Banks trophy 
to-night with a score of 198 out of 210, the best previous 
figures were 197, made three years ago by Company K. 
The event was for a loving cup donated by Com¬ 
modore David Banks, in addition to individual prizes 
to the three members of the winning team. 
The entry list mustered twenty-two teams, consist¬ 
ing of three men each, comprising a marksman, sharp¬ 
shooter and expert. The first event was at seven shots 
standing for a possible score of 105, and the second 
at prone position for a like number. The team’s two 
strings showed scores of 94 and 104 at standing and 
prone positions, respectively. In the latter position they 
missed a full score by only 1 point, establishing a record 
in the event. 
Company K was second with 193, and Company L 
third with 190. The scores:
