♦Ties gallery revolver record. 
Not all of the shooting of our members is confined to 
■gulation targets and bullseyes. There are some who 
"0 a little side work, in one case a record being made 
) hich will be hard to beat locally. You speak of “cats” 
a weekly shoot, and one long fellow will prick up his 
jrs and grin. The fact is that this past winter there 
ave been 19 cats put out of the howling business in one 
; 'ooryard; hasty interment in the snow prevented any 
i ublicity, and cold storage worked well in this instance, 
[owever, as spring has come and snow disappears, we 
■am that this shooter has devoted some late hours to 
ight cultivating a private cemetery, but with the feeling

that the deceased Thomases, Marias and a few un¬ 
knowns will further the blooming of better flowers than 
could be provided by kind friends. Then we have the 
chap who shoots sparrows with a telescope rifle; others 
who indulge in exterminating rats; verily, target shooting 
has its good points. 
Massachusetts Rifle Association. 
Walnut Hill, Mass., May 4 —In spite of the down¬ 
pour of rain and general inclemency of the weather, the 
members of the Massachusetts Rifle Association held 
the weekly shoot at their range to-day. 
The attendance was somewhat smaller than usual, as 
several of the regular contestants had left for Charleston, 
S. C., to compete in the matches of the triennial Bundes- 
fest, held at that city the coming week. This left few 
of the offhand shooters, and the shooting was mainly 
confined to the 1,000yds. and pistol matches. 
That the conditions were far from poor was proven by 
the scores at long range, F. Daniels barely missing a 
perfect score by a close 4 on his last shot, getting 49 out 
of the possible 50. 
E. E. Patridge also approached the possible by a score 
of 98 at the pistol range. His shots were closely 
bunched, and had the group been a trifle to the left, a 
perfect score might have resulted. The scores:
