M assachusetts Rifle Association. 
Walnut Hill, April 19.— The Massachusetts Rifle As- 
sociaton observed Patriots’ Day by holding an all-day 
shoot at its range, the matches being open to all comers. 
The cold, raw day, with its accompanying rain, proved a 
damper on the attendance of competitors, which, although 
quite fair, was by no means as large as was expected. 
Early conditions were decidedly poor, nobody appar¬ 
ently being able to correctly judge the varying wind, 
which, although light, was very unstable, and at noon 
few creditable scores had been made at any distance. A 
change for the better was noticeable shortly after lunch, 
and nearly all of the best scores were made at this time. 
F. Daniels’ score of 47 was the best for the day at 
1,000 yards, but his next score, counting 45, with a miss 
on the fourth shot, somewhat exceeded the limit for hard 
luck. The only plausible explanation of the miss seems 
to be that the jacket of the bullet was split and de¬ 
flected it from its course, as it was the only one of 
twelve consecutive shots which failed to find the bulls- 
eye. _ A bullseve on this shot would have given Mr. 
Daniels his first perfect score at this most difficult 
distance. 
J. Burfield’s last score, 221, was his best, and the best 
for the day in the offhand match. 
The bronze and silver military medal was won by J. 
Barton on 40s, and better. The summary: 
Bronze and silver medal; won on ten scores of 40 or 
better by J Barton, 43, 42, 40, 41, 42, 42, 42, 45, 44, 40.

April 20.—The regular weekly competition of the Mas¬ 
sachusetts Rifle Association was held at its range to-day 
in a howling gale, which very effectually prevented any¬ 
thing in the line of high rifle scores, 
f; The score of 40 made by R. L. Dade, was distinctly 
good work, all the shots being on the target under con¬ 
ditions requiring the most accurate judgment of wind 
i velocity, as an incorrect estimate usually meant several 
feet difference in the flight of the bullet at the target. 
F. C. Fitz was the only offhand shooter whose score 
reached the 200 mark. 
The pistol shots were less affected by the wind, and 
good scores were made, E. E. Patridge getting 96 in 
practice, and E. H. Foote a couple of 91s in the medal 
match. The summary:
