The Pelefeces. 
Boston, May 26.—The twelve attendants at the Pale¬ 
face shoot to-day were treated to some of the slickest 
shooting that has been seen here in the east for many 
moons. 
Sibley and Brinley. the two inimitable pros., furnished 
the head-liner, with Todd, of the amateur ranks, a good 
easy second. For some time Brinley looked as though 
97 was enough for him, but a tricky left-quarterer in the 
last event escaped unscathed, and the honors were 
divided between these tw'o well-known crackerjacks. 
Todd’s 92 was the highest average he has ever attained, 
and speaks well for his own selection of a 34in. weapon. 
Clark, Charles and Cavicchi had a great go for second 
average, one target separating the former two and two 
in the case of the latter. 
Mrs. W. K Park shot through the programme, and 
considering the handicap of a new gun, surely shot a 
good race. Scores:

Nkcun^ie Gun Club. 
Allentown, Pa., May 24.^ —It was a cloudy day, al¬ 
though good scores were made. A. Heil was high gun 
breaking 58 out of 75. Gaumer came up very close, not 
having been present in the first event. 
Mr. Heil made the best percentage, 92, from 50 pos¬ 
sible breaks. * 
Some of the boys are new at the traps, and after a 
little practice, will be able to compete with most of the 
boys. Some of the Emans Gun Club boys participated, 
and all showed them a hearty welcome.

Brown, a professional, ran a nice average and made lots 
of friends. 
P,owers was a little off. Trying out two different guns 
was hard on his score. 
Shooting was quite hard, a high wind coming in squalls, 
nearly blowing the shooters off the firing line.

Portland Gun Club. 
Portland, Me., May 28.—A raw east wind and a 
drizzling rain were unpleasant weather conditions to 
face, but trapshooters from various parts in New Eng¬ 
land were present at 9 o’clock, when the first registered 
tournament of the Portland Gun Club was begun. It 
was a success. The Palefaces, of Boston, were repre¬ 
sented in goodly number. The famous bandmaster, 
John Philip Sousa, was a distinguished contestant. 
This was the twenty-first anniversary shoot of the club. 
Merchandise prizes were a popular feature of the com¬ 
petition. There were twelve, first prize being an Ithaca 
hammerless gun. The prizes were won by first. Kirk¬ 
wood, 491; second. Mayor Reed, 189; third, Hassam, 
181; fourth, Powell, 180; fifth, Marden, 179; sixth, C. 
Randall, 176; seventh, Sousa, 176; eighth, E. Randall, 
176; ninth. Mayor Reed, 175; tenth, A. Alexander, 168; 
eleventh, C. Alexander, 166; twelfth. Hinds, 164; Parker, 
low man, 108. 
The programme consisted of ten 20-target events, all 
at 16yds. 
Secretary Charles F. Jordan managed the tournament 
skilfully, and all were highly pleased. The weather 
conditions undoubtedly lessened the attendance. The 
scores:
