[Feb. 1, 1908. 
The Palefaces. 
Boston, Mass., Jan. 25.—The Paleface shoot, held at 
Wellington, to-day, in honor of their secretary and treas¬ 
urer, brought forth a most representative attendance, with 
some thirty shooters, representing the majority of trap¬ 
shooting clubs in and around Boston. 
The shoot itself, ably handled by Chas. E. Comer, Geo. 
H. Hassam, B. F. Smith and the help of a few other 
enthusiasts, ran just like clock-work, and many com¬ 
pliments were heard, which goes to show that the Pale¬ 
faces are well stocked with the proper ability and spirit 
to tun enjoyable shoots for all. 
The high average for the day went to the worthy rep¬ 
resentative of Rhode Tsland, the first 100 targets seeing 
a battle royal between Nelson, Griffiths and Mayor, 8 
misses for the former and 9 for the latter two; but in 
the last 75 Griffiths let out a notch and ate up all but 
three, which gave him the win with 6 targets to the 
good. In the shoot-off between Mayor and Nelson 
the former proved his ability as a, tie shooter by a good 
23 score, and Nelson having lost 4 in the meantime, had 
to be content with third position. 
In the 100 added target handicap, the winner proved to 
be Nelson, whose 92 netted high score from scratch, and 
with the addition of a 2 handicap, placed a 94, just one 
target too many for Charlie Marden, who thought the 
boys had given him too liberal a handicap, and pro¬ 
ceeded to prove it with his trusty weapon and load. 
Charlie is too conscientious a shooter, and delights in 
pulling off a win -with a low handicap, but the handi¬ 
capping committee would not allow this, and the close¬ 
ness proved their good judgment. 
In events 2, 4, and 6, the cup winners were Nelson for 
first and a tie between Hassam, Marden, Mayor and 
Kirkwood, the four in shooting off furnishing the best 
tie shoot of the day, the two latter tying in the first 25, 
and then both cleaning 25 straight in the next tie. As 
this was glory- enough for both, and the' laurels were 
even, a split was agreed upon, and now half a cup 
adorns each den with this memorable tie engraved on 
each. 
The team match with its entrants was not the runaway 
race expected, when the roster of the Middlesex boys 
was looked into, and after considerable seesawing, etc., 
the boys representing East Lexington, under the able 
guidance of Bob Smith, emerged a winner, with Griff’s 
48 for high individual. The home boys now state that, 
as usual, they want satisfaction, and it would not be 
surprising if a series of team matches between the two 
clubs was arranged. 
Two barrels was thd rule in the last 25, and car¬ 
tridge manufacturers would have been pleased to have 
seen the decided increase in consumption of shells *that 
this event created. Kawop, in his first effort, cleaned up 
24 with an extra target^ hafldicap, and tied with Jordan, 
who had 25 for a straight, the former in the shoot-off 
keeping up the good work, while the latter fell off a 
trifle. 
Altogether the shoot was one of those pleasant affairs 
where every shooter enjoys himself, and with events 
running off on scheduled time, things could not be 
better. 
Too much credit cannot be given to Supt. Dickey, 
whose work in’the office was of the best, and winners 
were announced with the greatest dispatch and accuracy. 
One of the most pleasing incidents connected with the 
shoot took place during the noon hour. Governor- 
General Smith, on behalf of the Palefaces and New 
England trapshooters in general, presented Secretary 
Horace C. Kirkwood with a solid gold Paleface Watch 
charm as a token of appreciation of his services since 
the organization of the association.

New York Athletic Club. 
Traverjs Island, N. Y., Jan. 18.—Our regular weekly 
shoot to-day brought out fourteen guns, some of our 
boys having gone to Pinehurst for the Country Club’s 
midwinter tournament. With the exception of a gusty 
wind from the southwest, the weather was ideal for 
shooting. 
Fred. Hodgman, shooting a new gun, got a straight 
in practice, and Fred Schauffler celebrated his return 
from abroad with a straight from scratch. 
Event No. 1, was for practice, with Hodgman high 
gun. No. 2, for January cup, leg won by M. V. Lenane, 
with handicap of 6 targets. No. 3, for Sauer gun, leg won 
by Hodgman, after tie with Pelham, winning shoot-off 
by 1 target. No. 4, high score cup, won by Hodgman 
and Tilt, with 23 each. No. 5, trophy shoot, won by 
Pelham after tie with Thomson. No. 6, trophy shoot, 
won by Schauffler with straight score from scratch; No. 
7, trophy shoot, at 5 doubles, 5 targets with gun below 
elbow, and 10 singles, all at scratch, and was won by 
Pelham.

leg won by Dr. Held with 47 breaks, but Pelham wins
