The January competition took place on Saturday, for the first time under the new rales, by which competitors are now divided into two classes. The weather was cold and there was a strong and rather baffling right wind, which seemed to considerably affect. the shooting at 500 yards. Driv. Bourke was the winner in A class with an only one competitor, whose shooting wa: extremely erratic; but as there was no opposition, he took the prize, consisting "f 100 rounds of ammunition.'

B444985-28 4434355-28 56
