I/euienant-CJolorel Sommerville has requested 50 of the highest aggregate to write him whether, if selected f. r the team for Bislcy, they will be prepared to go. The fact of being asked to send their names will not in aoy pay bind the executive committee to select thcs3 asked.

At 4,15 tlie bnglo sounded for the 50 wi'o Iml qualified ro fire in rhe championship :q awemtle, and nil paraded, tho attendar <:<» of thn puhliu b ing lim'-pd, ai d the tpecti'ws practically i ocfined to computers who wt-r« not takiug p!l rt in the match. The weather was dull with a fre*h south-rly wiijd, which c<m« in from t :, o 'igh',, but remained ste idy and did not trouble • the men. Of the ex-ohampione who

wore competing a the roeeiii'g, Wttl.amu Wellington, Okey Taranalri, Churton Wanganui, Kruse Wanganui and Wakslia did not qualify. On the other hand, among the final 50 were ex-champions Kiog Oamaru, A. Ballinger Patoue, Kelson Woodvilie, White Auckland, and W. Ballinger Pe oo«. Of these, A Bellinger and W. Ballinger hare each woa the b« Itwici>, and had either of then* prevailed to-day the covered trophy would have become his own property. Hyde and Hawthorne, who eventually proved winner aod runner up, have unique records at this sboo'ing inp, having jjrme to the front at tin s'art, and held their position! throughout When the men vent to compete at the final etsge today, t.Vre were not a few who, remembering Wang tnui last year when Nelson pul'ed twelve on the leader and won the belt, thought that the leaders would certainly have one burst at the meeting, and that that was reserved for the Champion Match; also that redoubtable shots such aa W, Lov day, of Woodvilie, King, of Oamtru, and A. Ballenger, of Wellington, who finished fourth, fifth, and sixth for last years ohampionsbip, being within over of the leaders, one of them would be hailed the winner The result was, however, never in doubt, On drawing for targets, Hyde got on 2S, his mate being Sergeant Okey of Tarenak'. There we're two competi'oi* a 1: each of the 25 target*. Afur Colo el Somerville had posted Oap'ain Ro"'iusim in the butts, and waa satisfied that all wss ready, the bi.-le sounded, aod the men lo«t little timi in trying to find the target with their sighting shots. None of the fint ten got anything of any moment, a magpie being the highest register. Immediately the "business" began in real earnest, Hyde showed that hi* previous shoo'ing at 700 yards was no fluke, and his first five shots resulted in 23, Hawthorne only registering 20. This whs higher than any of the placed men except Anderson, who, having missed his sighter, had 22 to hiaoredit with five shots. Bid well, who was fourth when the shooting began, was the first to buret, and he soon lost his position. With this exoep'ion those next to the leaders, though making no gun on the Jesden, were keeping well in order; bat it was"riotic«able tha% Arderson was shooting so well that unl ss something unfotsatn happened he wuld be amongst the first flight,and s> it proved, for he shot from 17th to 5-.K All the interest was confined to tho m< unds oo wb:c'u Hydn and Howtborne were firing, aud when thj foimer Had fi-od his ninth shot it was appareht that the championship for 1902 was in his keeping. This fact did not impair hie shooting for, finishing with a doggedness that has marked his shooting throughout , the meeting, he i-cored tbree bulls with his 1 st shot', and thos'redused bis opponents ad vintage by one point. Love day, Sine, and A. Ballinger finished in the order thrr started:* A glance at the subjoined scoreterill show how the leading men fa^ed: Hyde, 5455443353 .. ~ 41 Hawthorne, 5445252555.. 42 W. Loved*y, 2245555255 .! 40 King, 3542324585 .. .. 3# Anderson, 5255554555 .. .. 46 A. Ballinger, 2534344543 .. 47 Matnsgy, 2455255555 .. ..ft Carlson, 4525554525 . 43 R. King,5523452524 ..' ..87 R. Rerdall, 4452445559.. .. 43 Hyde, the winner of the belt, ia about 35 years of age, and, though he shot at Trentham one year and aJss at Oamaru in 1896, baa never been prominent as a shooting man. He is a nonsmoker and most abstemious, though not altsgether a total abstainer. His shooing throughout has been most consistent, und his win very popular. Hawthorne is an old WeUingtooiao, and though in previous Association meetings, he has not been on top of the tree, he gave every promise of soma day developing in'o a top-nricber.' Of the others little need be said. King's shooting the last three ye<rs ie worthy of note. At Wangacui, in 1900, he won the championship, next year he was beaten »nthetio for fourth position, while tbii year be is fourth. Truly Bandmaster King and A, Ballinger may be regarded as the two best shots New Zealand possestei at the prtsent moment.
