District Prize Firing.
Second Set.
Firing for the second set of district prizes came of at the Government Range yesterday. There were a large number of competitors, and the conditions were: Ranges, 200, 400, and 500 jards, 2-inch bull's-eye at 200 yards, and second-class targets at 400 and 500 yards; 5 shots at each range. The shooting was very fair, considering that at the longest range a rather uncertain breeze was blowing. The following are the prize winners :—
