At the weekly shoot of the New England Kennel Club, 
held at Braintree, Mass., April IS, the club cup was won 
by Dr. C. G. Weld, with 25 from scratch, the first 
straight score during the season. This not only cap¬ 
tured the weekly cup, but it captured the trophy offered 
by the club for a full score. Mr. A. Blanchard scored 
a leg on the season cup with 24, one of which was target 
allowance. 
I* 
Mr. G. E. McMurtry, of the Rockaway Hunt Club, won

I* 
Mr. C. D. Reese was in fine form, and accentuated his 
superiority over his fellows in a contest at five live 
birds, held at Plymouth, Pa., on April 38. He scored 4, 
thus lacking but one of making a perfect performance. 
His opponents, Messrs. G. Hahn, E. W. Sherman, G. 
Pickering and J. Wilson pressed the winner very closely 
by scoring 3 each, while 2 birds each succumbed to the 
Powers trophy, 21yds.:

April 15.—The regular weekly Paleface shoot was held 
to-day despite the poor weather conditions, some thir¬ 
teen shooters in all taking part during the programme 
events. The interest of the afternoon centered in the 
50-target match, though during the entire time the rain 
fell in terrents and made the shooting very difficult. 
As it was, some very good scores were made, the score 
winning being the highest made on the grounds for some 
time past, and Jordan’s score, 42, for second scratch score 
was good shooting. 
In the Powers match, Charles was easily a winner, a 
scratch score of 20 with an additional 3 on handicap 
making the other scores made look something like 30 
cents. 
Buffalo looked somewhat out of place to be present 
without a gun, but health has to be considered some¬ 
times, even by a trapshooter, and he made the wise 
selection of being a spectator for the first time since 
arriving in Boston ten years ago. Scores:

The Palefaces. 
Boston, Mass., April 8. —The ninth New England 
championship race was held on the Paleface shooting 
grounds to-day, with some thirteen participants for high 
honors. 
With the conditions so much against the shooter the 
scores made were easily up to the average, but on the 
score board results did not show up to everyone’s satis¬ 
faction. 
Frost still keeps up. his newly acquired habit of high 
averages and proved to be the best poor weather man 
and now suffers the penalty in his next shoot of an extra 
yard for showing his superiority in such a decisive man¬ 
ner. Hodges’ win of second was a welcome one, it 
practically being his second attempt in an event of this 
kind and shows that with a little more experience the 
regulars will have to go some or take a back seat. 
In the Hassam match some creditable scores were made, 
high line being 24 from scratch, with Buffalo second on 
scratch score, and Charles, Hodges and Brinley tied for 
second on the handicap.
