Irish rifle team urged to seek Briton rivals

The article notes plans to form a Great Britain selection from leading rifle clubs to challenge the Americans after Dollymount. It analyzes scores showing two-point gaps and credits Irish morale and individual performances like Lieut Fulton and Mr Coleman, while suggesting a British team could closely match the United States. It also mentions ethnological exhibits at the Centennial and a Smithsonian led project on living North American tribes.
