Jersey City Gun Club. 
Jersey City, N. J., May 17.—We had a very disagree¬ 
able day at the Jersey City Gun Club to-day, as it rained 
pretty hard most of the afternoon, which seemed to make

their strings and back in the club house out of the wet. 
Geo. Piercy was high for the day with an average of 78 
per cent., and Harvey took second place with 73 per 
cent. The scores follow, in strings of 25:

Providence, R. I., May 17.—Sixteen leaders of the
