The Paleface*. 
Wellington, Sept. 25.—There were twenty-nine con¬ 
testants at the tournament of the Palefaces to-day. Mr. 
Horace Kirkwood was shooting in excellent form, scor¬ 
ing 165 out of 175 in the total of the day’s sweepstake 
programme. This was better than a 94 per cent, per¬ 
formance. Mrs. A. Topperwein was a close second with 
]63, better than 93 per cent. The competition for high 
average between Mrs. Topperwein and Mr. Kirkwood 
was very close, they being even at the 115th round. In 
the next 40 targets Kirkwood gained a lead of 2, which 
decided the high average. 
The special contest at 100 targets was won by Chap¬ 
man with a total of 100, of which 12 were allowance. 
Kirkwood and Daggett tied on 95, the former shooting 
from scratch and making the highest actual 
this contest. Scores follow:

a Springfield he had another

Highland Gun Club. 
Philadelphia, Sept. 23. —There was close competition 
at the monthly shoot of the Highland Gun Club, held 
at the Edge Hill traps to-day. The star performances 
of the day were credited to Wm. H. Wolstencroft and 
J. E. Roatche, the former shooting from scratch, the 
latter by virtue of his handicap. In the club shoot, a 
50-target handicap event, Mr. Wolstencroft scored 49, 
Tansey being second with 48, and McCarty third with 47. 
In the prize shoot, Roatche broke 40 out of 50, which 
with his 14 allowance, made a perfect score. Mercer 
also scored 40, and with his 12 allowance, placed him 
in a tie with Roatche. W. Wolstencroft from scratch 
scored 49, while Cantrell, also shooting from scratch, 
scored 47.
