The Palefaces. 
Boston, Mass., Feb. 15.—With weather just to the 
trapshooters’ liking, only eight shooters in all attended 
the regular Paleface shoot held to-day, but those who 
■did were completely satisfied with the afternoon’s enter¬ 
tainment, and were more than regretting the matinee 
did not continue for a longer period. Needless to say, 
Walter Clarke was one of the high averagites, with the 
prettiest score we have seen for a long time, and he 
deserves great credit for the phenomenal work; 96. is a 
dandy score anywhere, but right here on our grounds 
we look at it as being good for another two to three 
targets where targets are thrown for good scores, and 
not wholly for practice. 
Our friend Rule also took a hand in the good work 
and was right up near the top with a 92, but while good 
enough to win ordinarily, on this day, with Clark in 
the form which he was, had to be content with a second. 
All in all, every one seemed imbued with the target¬ 
breaking spirit, Frost with 68 coming along fine, and is 
extra good for the second appearance at any trapshooting 
grounds. Scores: 
Clark .. 
Rule ...

I' e b- -3.—With a handicap of 35. targets and an actual 
breakage of 129, Frank won the high gun honors for the 
holiday shoot of the Palefaces at Wellington yesterday. 
Franks score of 164 was 4 better than Marden, the next 
best handicap man. _ Marden led the field for net shoot¬ 
ing with 140, and with his handicap of 20, brought him 
within 4 targets of the winner in the handicap match. 
Centre and Richardson shot to a tie for the fifth prize, 
and will settle it later. A booby prize was won by 
Green, who failed to reach the 100 mark in net shoot¬ 
ing, his round score, with handicap, netting him a total 
of 124 targets.

Feb. 12.—I he Washington’s Birthday tournament was 
well attended and every one had a good time, in spite of 
the unfavorable conditions, due to a high wind and 
freezing temperature. While no one did better than 90 
per cent., many of the scores were creditable under the 
conditions. 
Interest now turns to our spring tournament, April 
7 and 8, for which an attractive program will be pre¬ 
pared and widely distributed.

Gilbert at this tournament shot at 475 targets, losing but 21,—thereby 
winning first average for the tournament.

INTER-OCEAN HUNTING TALES 
EDGAR F. RANDOLPH 
A series of hunting reminiscences of rare charm for the sportsman and for 
the wider circle which delights in true tales of outdoor life. With none of the high 
coloring and exaggeration which give a false note to so many hunting stories, Mr. 
Randolph’s book is never lacking in interest. 
He covers the field of sport with the rifle, east and west, drawing a vivid word 
picture of life in the open, subordinating his own exploits to the main incidents of 
outdoor experience, giving much valuable information on camp life, hunting and the 
habits of wild game, and continually delighting the reader with the freshness of his 
viewpoint. 
This book will strike a sympathetic chord in the memory of every big-game 
hunter, of experience and will prove of real value to the novice who is planning an 
excursion into the wild.
