CREEDMOOR, Conclusion of the State Matches. The Gatling Gun Won by the ‘Seventy-ninth. The Members of the Press Try Their Hand with the Rifle. A sti” wind blew across the Creedmoor range yesterday with suiticient force to interiere with the accuracy of the fring; but as it was constant ‘the driit of the projectiles was easily ascertained and allowed for, Itdid not, therelore, exercise such bad effect as the chopping wind of Wednesday. Bad weather this year has made bad scores, and as a result very little improve- ment will be visible in the aggregate number o1 Points made by the teams. Some consolation may, however, be found in the increased skill displayed fm the use of the rifle by the rank and file, whose Progress, as marked by the regimental scores, nas been most satisfactory. There remain many im- Provements to be made in the administration o1 the range before it can be made popular. The first part of the day was devoted to finish- fog up the State match and was followed by the Press and Ali Comers matches, in which a good eal of interest was felt. Several protests were emtered in the Press match, owing to several @f the Canadian marksmen having entered them- selves as members of the press, although some, at least, of them are known to belong to other walks in life. In connection with this matter the smaller Canadian journals are much to biame, as they seem to furnish journalistic certificates without much attention as to the use ‘that may be made of them, The Consolation match. too, which was supposed to be for the bene- it of unlucky marksmen, was by some strange ar- Fangement thrown open to the crack shots ef Canada and Ireland, It seems absurd to allow @ marksman like Dr. Hamil- ton or Captain Mason to shoot in a match | mtended to be open only to the second rate Creed- moor shots. This is exercising hospitality at tue expense of the popularity of Creedmoor. If the Yast majority of the gentlemen who entered into this match had known that they were te shoot against the crack shots jand and Canada they would certainly not have been tooiltsh enough to throw away their money paying entrance fees. These are, no doubt, errors of judgment, but they are errors that have created profound dissatisfaction among the majority of the Creedmoor riflemen, Henry Falton. 4434 The First Trot. ‘ne Gatling gun was won by the Seventy-ninth re 4 3 regiment, but the award was disputed by the | Hb Smit Seiad FLEETWOOD Park, Oct.

A new and convenient office for the redemption of pool tickets has been | erected, with room for nine paying tellers, this | number being selected that each race may be set- | tled as soon asitisover. A stand has also been built to the right of the latter office for the use of jockeys, grooms and stable boys, whose presence on the track during racing is not desirable.
