The Palefaces. 
Boston, Mass., June 12.—IVhat proved to be the most 
enjoyable shoot of the season was held here to-day. 
Thirty-eight shooters, from here, there and everywhere, 
attended. It was certainly a dandy shoot, and the entire 
attendance agreed that next year’s trapshooters’ re¬ 
union would have at least double the attendance, if it 
was within their power to do so. 
The interesting feature of the afternoon of course was 
the team match. At the time of arranging the teams just 
thirty-five shooters were there, three of the contestants 
being unavoidably delayed, which made an even five 
teams with seven members each. That the teams were 
carefully selected, a look at the score will answer, as 
ten birds separated the high and low, which is going 
some on 700 birds to a team. 
At the beginning of the second 40 targets team No. 
2, captained by Gene Mayor, ably seconded by his 
brother, Elmer Reed, was 3 targets to the good, and the 
low team at that time was only 7 birds away. On the sec¬ 
ond 40, however, team No. 5 got in its deadly work. 
Marden, Roy, Muldown and Kirkwood accounted for all 
but 9 of their 160, while Mrs. Park, Worthing and Kelso 
put in good scores and jumped into the lead one target to 
the good. On the last round, the entire five teams put 
forth their best efforts, but No. 5 was going too good 
to pe denied, and increased its lead to 4 birds over No. 1, 
which had crept up into second position. No. 2 taking 
third. No. 4) fourth. No. 5 fifth. 
In the race for high average some eight participants 
secured the coveted 90 mark, with a home shooter high 
with_ 95, Roy Faye’s 94, however, was the winner of the 
special, as his score was the best among the regular 
entrants. Geo. Flassam made a good second. While 
Mayor, Frank, and Marden tied for next place on a score 
ordinarily good enough to win. 
The added-target match found some twelve shooters in 
the tie, which was shot off high gun to win. Cole in 
the tie shot well ahead of form, and made a 29%, which 
was of course beyond anything, beating out Gene Reed, 
whose phenomenal work of shooting straight availed 
him nothing. Scores:

Mrs. Park 
was the only 
lady contestant, but 
played 
the game to the limit. Her last two scores of 17 each 
helped not a little in the final results. A little more 
experience with the new single sticker will put her right 
back to form, which means the home boys will have to 
trot some to win. 
Frank at first intended to stay away, but could not bear 
the thoughts of leaving for Melvin for the summer with¬ 
out one more good time at the traps; 92 was the result, 
and if the remainder of the team had held up with him 
Captain would have been the tin can for the rest of the 
bunch. 
A trapshooters’ reunion and no Buffalo F. Smith— 
where, oh, where, has our Buffalo gone? Other States 
please send him home. 
Mayor Reed as usual in a tie broke them all, but 
owing to an agreement before the shoot-off, even this 
crackerjack work was no use alongside of a 7%-bird han¬ 
dicap given to Cole, who broke 22. 
\V. F. Clarke broke his usual 88 , but not quite enough 
to get a place in the first bunch. His specialty on the 
Novelty trap earned for him a very pretty souvenir. 
Geo. Hassam came late, went away early, but in the 
meantime let loose with a 93. George has just rounded 
into form, as the results o'f the Portland and Haines 
Landing shoots will show, 
Roy Hodsdon’s two 19s in the three or four events 
were as pretty a piece of work as was seen, each target 
being ground into dust. The two that Roy lost were 
the result of a little carelessness, otherwise it would 
have been two straights. Pump guns seem to fit this 
expert to perfection, and another month will put him 
right on edge. 
Jack Brinley and Arthur Sibley were the only profes¬ 
sionals present, and made themselves of great assistance 
to the shoot management. A great pair to draw to and 
no mistake. 
O. R. Dickey was to be there, but was not. This will 
have to be straightened out when Dick gets back. 
Charles and Horace picked out the teams, and could 
be seen after the shoot with chests expanded that would 
make a thoroughbred envious. Here’s hoping such good 
success can be duplicated. 
J. C. Todd had one bad event, otherwise it would have 
bee.n 86 or 87, as has been thei case ever since the ad¬ 
vent of his 34 in old reliable. 
Some ten to fifteen ladies honored the Palefaces during 
the afternoon. On June 17 the club runs its regular ladies’ 
day, which calls for a special team match, every lady 
present selecting a team and a prize is presented to the 
winner. 
The Novelty match was quite the thing at first, but 
had to play second fiddle tO' the team match after the 
latter got under headway. 
The score board was a popular place, and the ex¬ 
clamations heard from all quarters were both laugh¬ 
able and to the point. 
Fred. Whitney, Rw Fale, Charles Blinn, Mayor Reed, 
Bert Powel, Cush 'Todd, made up a strong. B. A. A. 
aggregation, three of them making over the 90 per cent. 
Charlie Marden came out after having accepted a new 
position with a well-known Chicago grain house, and 
proceeded to break 20 , and then at the end, to show that 
the first was no dream, broke another, which came in 
handy, to say the least. 
John Davidson was the only Plymouth representative, 
and held his end up in good shape, especially after such 
a poor start. 
Geo. Steele and Harry IVorthen were both welcome 
visitors. These two are the secretary and president of 
the Melrose Highlands Gun Club, and it is due to their 
energetic work that the club is coming into prominence 
so rapidly. Some thirty-five to forty members are on the 
club’s roster, with a number of shooters waiting to get 
in. Ralph Worthen and Harry Maine were also pres¬ 
ent, but played the part of interested spectators. 
Jason Spofford, of Amesbury, one of the remaining few 
shooters to stick to the gun below the elbow style of 
shooting, broke 82. It is a treat to see this old-timer 
handle a gun, and some of the newer generation would 
make no mistake to copy even a little from his methods. 
Buckman shot a 20-gauge throughout, and broke the 
targets up great when it hit them. 
Cavicchi ended up with a straight, which put his team 
in the winning. 
The club team picked from the bunch on the dope 
sheet at the start, would have pulled out 904 for ten men. 
It would have taken quite a fast team to have trimmed 
the boys this afternoon. 
The tonic stand was in great demand by all, but it was 
agreed that Cole won out, starting in early and ending 
late. If it has such an effect on winning prizes, we 
will all have to get busy next shoot. 
The first squad, composed of Frank 92, Rule 91, Mayor 
92, Reed 81, and, Powel 91, easily won out high squad 
honors. 
Rule and Allen, the latter accompanied by Mrs. Allen, 
made up the Lowell contingent. Had to leave Jimmie 
and Eddie Burns home because of the rifle game, but 
Rule uncorked a 91 just to show us that they still held 
some high averages on top in the Spindle City. 
Charlie Allen pegged away for the best interests of his 
team, but was a little off form, to the tune of six or 
eight targets. 
Tuck and Childs came, bringing regrets from the re¬ 
maining Haverhill bunch. Tuck cleaned up 60, but 
Walter was a bit off color with 68 . First attempt on these 
grounds makes a big difference, and bigger scores will 
be the rule on their second appearance. 
Charlie Worthing got a rather poor start, but made 
good in the latter events. 
Jim Kelso took away one of the special cuff links 
offered to the winning team. 
Bob Burnes was shooting a strange gun, but gave a 
good account of himself with 86 . 
Thos. Howe was easily the veteran of the entire bunch, 
but showed that good scores were still the rule. 
Langstroth, the Highland Gun (Ilub’s crack, came 
within an ace of getting in on the added target race. 
Pretty good work for a shooter with only a year’s ex¬ 
perience. 
Charlie Darrah accompanied Mayor and Elmer Reed 
from Manchester. Charlie found the targets a little bit 
difficult, but it certainly looked as though he enjoyed 
himself like the rest. 
June 9. — Just a dozen shooters attended the Paleface 
shoot held here to-day, and while a small number for 
such a nice day, it is safe to say that every one thor¬ 
oughly enjoyed himself. 
In the high average race, Frank again held his own 
and tied for first with 93, his second event being his only 
poor event of the afternoon. Geo. Hassam annexed the 
second average, his last 50 targets coming within one of 
a possible. 
The Curtis cup match brought forth the most enthusi¬ 
asm, and it took five shoot-offs in the tie, and there is 
still a tie to be shot off, Thomas and Hassam both shoot¬ 
ing in topnotch form, and not to be outdone in any case. 
A special tie shoot has been arranged, and on June 
17 it is to be a survival of the fittest.
