TiROOKLYN, L. I., Jan. 23.—The heavy, dense fog, so 
thick that a target disappeared quickly within the 
gloomy mass, obstructed the view of the gunners. It 
was a severe test to eyes, whetlier old or new. The 
contestants moved nearer and nearer from time to 
lime, till the 10 -yard mark was reached, though this 
was but a partial relief, as the targets quickly dis¬ 
appeared from view after taking flight.. The scores were 
fairlv good. Air. G. G. Stephenson, Jr., scored a leg on 
the January cup with a full score of 25, and also was 
first in a scratch event with a full score at 15 targets. 
His brother, Mr. F. B. Stephenson, scored 25 straight 
from scratch in two trophy events, as also did Air. L. C. 
Hopkins, with the aid of his handicap. Air. A. E. Hen¬ 
drickson tied on 25 with Air.
