Scribner Gun Club, 
_ Scribner, Neb., Jan. 23. — The sweepstake shoot given by the 
Scribner Gun Club took place on the meadowland south of town 
this afternoon. The day was far from a perfect one for trap- 
shooting, and the scores were not up to the average as a con- 
sequence. Several marksmen were here from North Bend and 
the surrounding towns, and in spite of the chilly wind prevailing 
managed to get much enjoyment from their favorite sport. 
Five traps were used, and the targets were sprung from un- 
known angles, and three sqviads were kept firing most of the 
time. The purses were divided in a ratio of 50, 30 and 20 per 
cent., and Beveridge, of the Fremont Gun Club, gathered in 
the most of the money. 
The shooters did not get warmed up for work until the second 
event for 15 birds, the score of which is as follows:

There were only four of the bluerock events shot off, owing to 
the late time of starting. 
There were two live-bird events, the one of 7 birds having 
seventeen entries, and the last one of 10 birds having fourteen 
entries. These consumed much time, as the birds did not fly 
well from the box traps used, and the last event was only 
finished at dark. The scores of these are as follows:

Bostoa Gun Club. 
Wellington, Mass., Jan. 27. — A very windy afternoon, yet ten 
sliooters made themselves comfortable at Wellington last Wed- 
nesday, and asked no further favors than the usual programme 
and a twenty-four hours' respite from an ammunition advance, 'i'his 
constant onward march of shells, shot and fixed ammunition is 
becoming monotonous,* and shooting for the poor man will 
soon be a tabooed sport. The trap-shooters of the future will 
need to be millionaires, and they are in the small minority com- 
pared to the present rank and file. 
Mr. Leroy joined the crowd to-day — once again after a month's 
immersion in business to the entire exclusion of trap-shooting — 
yet 87 per cent, was all he broke at 21yds. rise, and , the indi- 
vidual score was his at the end of day, while the team total 
was jointly his property, together with Leonard.

Sidell Gun Club. 
SiDELL, 111., Jan. 21.^Herewith are scores made to-day in 
I^ractice for the big shoot next Wednesday, which will be at 
Sidell. Scores on targets were only fair, owing to the day. The 
magautrap was used. Two events on live birds were shot, and 
some very good scores were made. These were handicap races, 
and Mr. Sconce, standing at scratch, won the first by killing 
straight; Mr. Carson, at 28yds., won the second event, killing all 
but one out of his string. Most of the boys are young at pigeon 
shooting, but are learning fast, as the scores show:

Jan. 25. — The Sidell Gun Club held its winter tournament at 
targets to-day, and a light crowd was in attendance. One sweep

only a light wind, and some very good scores were made. J. 
L. Hoosier, of Evansville, Ind. ; J. L. Dietrich, of Waveland,
