BLENHEIM RIFLES.
The final match for the Poison Cup and N.Z.C.F. clock was fired this morning. The Cup was from scratch and the clock from handicaps, which were opened on the range. After an exciting contest Sergt. Hammond won both the cup and clock. Major Rogers succeeded in putting on a fine score of 47, which is the record for that range. The range was 600 yds, ten shots. The following are the scores:—
