Pine Hills Gun Club. 
Albany, N Y., May 4. —The first annual tournament 
of the Pme Hills Gun Club took place to-day. A more 
unfavorable day could not have been selected. The 
morning was ushered in in a downpour of rain, which 
continued through the best part of the forenoon. When 
the heavy clouds did break away the wind shifted to the 
northwest and blew a gale throughout the afternoon. 
1 hu ty-one of the good and faithful put in an appear- 
cinec. Some tine shooting 1 was done by both profes- 
sionals and amateurs. The trade was well represented 
by Messrs. Ginn, Taylor, Clark, Stevens, Fanning, 
Glover, Sibley and Harvey McMurchy. 
This was Mr. Taylor’s first appearance in this section. 
His fine shooting was very much admired by those pres¬ 
ent. The office was filled very acceptably to all by Mr. 
White. The club had made spendid preparations, or 
the shoot never could have been pulled off so success¬ 
fully under the unfavorable conditions. The scores:

Paleface Shoot. 
Boston, Mass., May 1.—Eighteen shooters, represent¬ 
ing as many different clubs, were present at the im¬ 
promptu shoot of the Palefaces to-day in honor of the 
opening of the new grounds for regular shoots. The 
afternoon was replete with enthusiasm, as there is 
nothing that comes up to a real Wellington attendance 
for good fun from a gun crank’s standpoint. 
Mayor Reed, from Manchester, a small berg in size, 
but a busy bee in the political bonnet, easily romped 
in a winner in the high average line with almost a 
clean slate, only one target escaping unscathed during 
the seven events. With one run of 108 straight, the 
Boston boys admitted Gene to have had the bulge on 
them, though surely some of the regulars were making 
very few mistakes. 
Powers easily carried off his game sack filled to the 
brim with a pretty run of 119 straight, nosing ahead of 
Mayor by 11 more targets, after the programme was over. 
Second with 143 proved that Newport has some shooters 
there good enough to travel with the best. 
Griffith, as usual, came in among the first four, tying 
for second average and putting in two runs of over 
sixty during the regular events. 
Frank looked somewhat lost with only 86 per cent., 
but promises better results next shoot, and very rarely 
but what he keeps his word.
