Geo. Roll "Wins Montgomery Ward Diamond Badge. 
Chicago, 111., Aug. 5.— George Roll, of Blue Island Gun Club, 
yesterday won the Montgomery Ward & Co. diamond badge in 
the twelfth and final contest and wears now the last trophy open 
to the general public in Chicago shootingdom. Mr. Roll was 
closely crowded by Mr. J. W. Aniberg, runner-up, and had the 
latter won in the day's contest he must have been final winner 
without an additional shoot, for he was in the ties for first (he was 
the only .scratch man to go straight out of the thirteen entries) 
and had won the trophy twice before. As it was, Dr. Shaw, 
Messrs. Simonetti, Amberg, liarto, Hollister and Parker were 
the only ones in the tie on 15, Roll dropping back to the 14 hole, 
■where he had to kill 12 tie birds to win second place, third going 
to Elias. All of the men in the 15 tie killed their 5 straight ex- 
cept Ambei'g, to whom a .straight meant more than to any of his 
rivals. .'Vs he was thus shut out, and it was the last reixiaining 
chance for a three-time winner, it Avas decided to save time by 
discontinuing that tie and going on at once to the final contest, 
for whicli three men qualified, each of whom had won the badge 
twice, namely, Amberg, Sturdevant and Roll. All shot at 30yds. 
and at :I5 birds, Sturdevant showed in poor form and missed 5 
birds, withdrawing. Amberg missed his 5th bird, and Roll, not 
lo be outdone, also missed his 5th. The men then ran together 
up to the 12th bird, which Amberg failed to stop. RoU killed on 
out and won, the race being decided in the first string of 15 
birds and not getting to the tie frames. Both men were warmly 
Congratulated by tlieir friends, and thus the very successful and 
■pleasant series came to an end. 
The second capital prize, the high average medal, was won very 
decisively by Dr. Shaw, who in the ten times he has shot for this 
badge has gone straight eight times. This, too, is a very beauti- 
ful emblem and denotes a very meritorious performance in so 
Uargc and good a field as these contests have brought out. Dr. 
Shaw mi.ght have found a rival in Mr. Hollister had the latter 
shot in as many of the contests as Dr. Shaw. Out of five times 
entered, Mr. Hollister has gone straight five times. 
Of the diiTerent holders of this badge, Messrs. Roll, Ajnberg 
and Sturdevant won it twice each, and it was won once each by 
Messrs. W. B. Lefiingwell, J. L. White, J. O'Brien, J. Elias and 
Nels. Nelson. There was no winner declared in the twelfth con- 
test. In this last shoot the weather was close and humid — not 
good flying weather — but the birds did well. Below are the scores 
of the contest:

Messrs. Montgomery Ward & Co. will not offer any further 
medals for a series of shoots, having now shot the year round for 
the boys and done their share. There is talk, however, at Manager 
Leffingwell's suggestion, of beginning another series of medal 
Shoots among the shooters themselves, they to put up their own 
medal and to arrange for a sweep entry on the side in each shoot 
for all who may prefer, any shooter being allowed to shoot for the 
medal alone if he wishes. It is not at this writing determmed 
what will be the conclusion in regard to this proposition, but it 
is likely to be adopted, as the boys will feel lonesome without 
something to shoot for every other week at least.

Garfield Gun Club. 
Chicago, Aug. 5.— The followiiig scores were made on our 
grounds to-day, and are not quite up to our usual grade in average, 
although some good scores were made. Dr. Shaw won Class A 
medal on a score of 23; W. Northcott and Ford tied for Class 
H medal on scores of 21, and after a spirited shoot-off Northcott 
won. Class C Medal was won by Cornelson on a score of only 
11- very few members of Class C being present. The weather was 
very cloudy and threatening rain; in fact, did rain all forenoon 
and up to 1 o'clock, which accounts for our small attendance. 
It is a very unusual thing for Garfield to have an attendance of 
less than twenty-five shooters.

Jack"' Fanning was first, with Harold Money second, a number 
following close up. 
Friday, July 28. 
This day and the following were devoted to the live-bird pro- 
gramme. The weather was rather against the birds, no wind blow- 
ing to assist them, and the birds themselves were not a good lot. 
The feature of the day's shoot was the performance of Capt. du 
Bray and Harold Money, the former missing his first bird and then- 
running 44 straight, losing but 2 for the day; the latter went 
through the three main, events without a miss, a total of 22 birds. 
In the miss-and-outs he lost 1, killing 44 out of 45 for the day. 
Fox, Fames, Cartledgc, Malone, Fanning, also shot well.
