Portland, Me., May 21.—With the sky overcast and a 
-ray light, we held our branch shoot for the purpose of 
ndeavoring to qualify for the Olympic pistol and re¬ 
aver team. After the scores were turned in, we looked 
t one another and shook our heads and wondered what 
he rest of the scores were around the country. L. R. 
latch, the new satellite, created another stir among 
lub members by running away with this shoot. It was 
. very pretty race between him and the veteran, S. B. 
\dams, and up to the scoring of the seventh target 
\dams had slightly the better of the argument. At 
his stage of the game Adams broke his even shooting 
ind drew a couple of bad targets, while Hatch was 
lolding very consistently. The last two targets they 
iroke even. It was a surprise to note the shooting of 
Tayden, and for some unknown reason he failed to

of the occasion. During the greater part of the afternoon 
all firing points were filled and more than the ordinary 
attention was given the hand gun. There were only a 
few scores turned in by the rifle shooters, and when ap¬ 
proached tor scores would simply smile and turn away.
