Portland, Me., Feb. 7. —We have had some very bad 
weather the past week; a couple of very disagreeable 
storms and three days of severe cold has had a ten¬ 
dency to keep anything but a genuine gun crank away 
from the gallery. Those that have shown up are so high 
in the tournament that to secure another point is like 
finding a needle in the hay mow. 
Many members are lamenting over the fact that matches 
are hard to get this year. We haven’t heard from our 
Providence friends this year, but expect to meet them 
at the Massachusetts Rifle Association shoot on Wash¬ 
ington’s Birthday. 
There has been a shortage in pistols through this 
section for some two months, and members of our “trad¬ 
ing department” have held anything in the pistol line at 
a premium. This week the dealers here secured a dozen 
pistols which were eagerly grabbed as soon as the word 
was sent out that they had arrived. Several members 
have vowed they were going after somebody’s scalp with 
these new guns, and Mr. F. B. Marston was the first 
man to make his initial entry in the pistol division this 
week. Mr. Graffam has “done things” this week with 
the revolver, gaining 48 points. He has been shooting 
the hand gun but six weeks, and has now reached the 
80 class. Messrs. Folkins, Cobb, Strickland, Bailey, and 
Sterling have also shown improvement this week. 
Messrs. Stevens, Folkins, Stoughton, Eveleth, Marston, 
Berry, Strickland and Mitchell all bettered their rifle 
scores this week. A very hard luck target was shot by 
Mr. Stoughton this week, when he placed nine con¬ 
secutive shots within the five-ring and his tenth shot 
going to a wide three. Same old story, How did I do it?
