The Standard Gun Club. 



Baltimobb, May 3.— The Standard Gun Club held their weekly shoot 

 at Acton's Park yesterday, and about one-half of its members turned 

 out to enjoy the sport. The weather was very favorable and some 

 very good scores were made. The club will give an all-day's shoot 



this month, on which occasion the main feature will be a three-man 

 team race for a purse. Teams to consist of any three men and each 

 man to shoot at fifty targets. This race will, no doubt, bring a good 

 many teams, and a lively time is looked for. The following are yester- 

 day's scores at 50 bluerock targets:

"Six Shooter Mac," Fort Meade, S. D.— In the World Almanac for 

 1893, under the heading of "Rapid Revolver Firing," two experts, A. 

 A. Cohen and Wm. Kent, are respectively credited with having placed 

 inside of a lOin. circle at 12yds., five shots in three-quarters of a sec- 

 ond. Any information you can give me through your columns regard- 

 ing this remarkable record will be very acceptable. Such rapidity of 

 fire with any ordinary revolver seems incredible. Ans. Mr. Conlln, 

 in whose gallery these scores were made, vouches for the accuracy of 

 the timing. The shooting was done with a self -cocking revolver, held 

 at the height of the hip, we believe, and both hands were used.
