The Climax are Awake. 



The monthly shoot of the Climax Gun Club, of Plainfield, held at 

 Benner's Grove on Feb. 7, was very well attended, there being sixteen 

 in the club handicap shoot. The day was a good one as to weather 

 conditions, and everybody was enthusiastic. The club, s now in a 

 strong condition and will make a big effort to win first place in the 

 coming series of contests for the State league championship, which 

 will open on the 28th inst. 



Among the members of the club are Dr. P. J. Zeglio and J. Zeglio, of 

 Warrenville, the former being one of the best live-bird shots in the 

 State and rapidly coming to the front as a target smasher, a game at 

 which his brother can tie him at present. Ferd. Van Dyke, the tall 

 and slender blonde from Dayton, is another of the club members. 



The shooting of this club is all done from five unknown traps and 

 angles, one man up, otherwise American Association. The scores in 

 the club handicap event were as follows. The figures in ( ) indicate

Connecticut State League Meeting. 



The second annual meeting of the Connecticut League of Trap- 

 Shooters was held at the Hotel Heublein, Hartford, Tuesday after- 

 noon. Allen Willey acted as secretary of the meeting and the follow- 

 ing business was transacted. A. F. Rockwell, of Bnstoi, was elected 

 president of the league for 1894, and the following vice-presidents were 

 elected, each of whom is the president of his home club: H.J. Mills, 

 Bristol; A. C. Collins, Colt Hammerless, Hartford; F. F. Porter, New 

 Haven; J. W. Webb, Willimantic; Dr. U. S. Cook, Moodus; George C. 

 Strong, New London; E. P. Sperry, Ansonia; Egbert Decker, Hartford 

 Gun Club, Hartford, and Judge John G. Crump, Thames Club, New 

 London. F. C. Fowler, of Moodus, was chosen secretary and treas- 

 urer; G. Phiup Lecrenier, of Moodus, assistant secretary, and H. L. 

 Edgarton, of Willimantic, manager. The governing committee chosen 

 were C. E. Longdon, New Haven; H. J.Mills, Bristol; E P. Sperry, 

 Ansonia; M. F. Cook, Colt Club, Hartford; H A. Penrose, Thames 

 Club, New London; Allen Willey, Hartford Club. Hartford; H. L. 

 Edgarton. Willimantic; F. C. Fowler, Moodus, and J. W. Clinton, New 

 feondoa Club, 



The by-laws were changed so as to allow each club to enter as many 

 teams as they desired to. no man to shoot with but one club during 

 the year. The teams will consist of two men each instead of three, as 

 last year. It was voted to refund to the Bristol Club the $25 which 

 they bid for the last league shoot and the league also voted to adopt 

 Keystone targets. The team shoots will be at 30 birds per man, 

 known trap and known angles. The merchandise event will be at 15 

 birds per man, known traps and known angles. The team making 

 the highest total in one shoot over one-half the number of tourna- 

 ments held will take first money. Each team will pay $15 entrance 

 fee and there will be four moneys, divided 40, 30, 20 and 10 per cent. A 

 committee to obtain prizes was chosen, consisting of H. A. Penrose, 

 president, W. M. Thomas, F. F. Potter, Allen Willey, F. C. Fowler and 

 M. F. Cook. A ballot was taken to decide where the first shoot of the 

 season should be held and it fell to the lot of the newly-organized 

 Hartford Gun Club, which is officered as follows: Pres., Egbert 

 Decker; Vice-Pres., A. F. Pitkin; Sec'y-Treas., Daniel Wadsworth; 

 Directors, Allen Willey and John Melrose. 



The Hartford Gun Club has a pleasant shooting ground fifteen min- 

 utes' ride from the city by horse and electric cars, a good, new club 

 house and a complete outfit of bluerock traps and Paul North's elec- 

 tric pull. They will endeavor to make the initial shoot of the Connec- 

 ticut Trap Shooters' League a great success as they have the best of 

 everything to do with and experienced tournament managers to run it. 

 The shoot will be given the 23d of March— Fast Day. The Thames 

 Club of New London will be a fine addition to the league. Unless we 

 are mistaken, this club will be the great gun club of Connecticut. It 

 starts with twenty charter members who pay §25 initiation, and will 

 be much like the Larchmont and Carteret in a social position. The 

 club proposes to shoot live birds as well as targets, and will have its 

 live bird events shot on Fisher's Island, In Long Island Sound, State of 

 New York, but only seven miles distant from New London. A steam 

 launch is to be bought to carry the members of the club to the island.

Anaconda Gun Club. 



Anaconda, Mont., Feb 7.— Inclosed I hand you scores of our weekly 

 medal and sweepstake shoot. It was an off day for all and lower 

 scores than are usually made was the result. The day was perfect, 

 but a very bright sun, with the snow for a background, made it very 

 trying to catch the swift-flying targets. The boys trapping got it 

 into their heads too that a few puzzlers would make the shooting 

 more interesting and the variety of angles they gave us called for 

 very prompt action in many cases Twohy again captured the medal 

 after a very close shoot with Dr. Rockefeller, they being tied up to 

 the iast five birds. Ashford retained the B medal, but will soon be 

 compelled to shoot in the A class, as our conditions, 60$ for 150 con- 

 secutive shots in medal class, relieves the B men of his presence.
