Twin Cities. 
'Minneapolis, Minn., July 1— I inclose scows made , on these 
grounds since June 23. In the sweeps the winners were handi- 
capped 2yds. on each win, and but three men shot from the Myd- 
The shooting on the new grounds shows a marked improvement 
in the scores of some of the shooters of the Twin Cities. This is 
no doubt due to more practice ajad a far better, background. At 
present there is some talk of a large tournament, to be given bv 
the St Paul and Minneapolis clubs combined. -If this goes througli 
I dare «ay it will be one of the largest mud pie parties given this 
year, with plenty of added money and courteous treatment.

Mississippi Vafley Notes. 
The Independent Gun Club, of Belleville, 111. gave a very satis- 
factory shoot on July 1. This club has nicely located grounds on 
East St. Louis and Belleville suburban line just at the foot of the 
bluffs marking the southern boundary of the great American bot- 
toms, and is noted for the number of its successful- "family" 
shoots, which are always open to any who care to attend. 
Blackbirds were thrown from three expert traps' at 1 cent ' each, 
division of moneys being under the Rose system. Of the men 
who shot through. Spencer, Riehl and Taylor "made the high 
averages, Mr. Spencer making a continuous run of 98 straight.

Progressive Gun. Club. 
Late in the afternoon the crowd moved down the highway half 
a mile to the Progressive Gun Club grounds, where members of 
that organization engaged in their semi-monthly contest for the 
Heim's trophy. Eugene Deletine, a comparatively new shooter, 
surprised the boys by distancing them all with a score of 20 
straight. The scores: Delatine 20, Harvey 5, Bellcour 16, Le Page 
18, Exted 17, P. Baygerman 14, Poyeur 16, W. Baygerman 15, 
Huff 14.. 
Afterward a matdh was-arranged for a $10 stake at 50 single tar- 
gets between Deletine and Le Page. In this, however, the former 
lost his gait, and the race was against him from the start. The 
scores are appended:

Piasa Gun Club. 
The Piasa Gun Club, ^Vlton, celebrated the Fourth after its 
well-established custom, with a rousing home talent shoot. The 
programme began at noon and included all 10-target events, targets 
1 cent each, with four moneys, divided on the Rose system. This 
gave every man a show to get frequently into the divides, and 
has proven very satisfactory here. There were a number of new 
faces on the grounds to-day, and the crowd was such that only 
five events were finished. ' ■ ' 
A feature of the day was the initial shoot for the gold medal 
donated by the Western Cartridge Company. The conditions of 
these contests, to be held once a month for one year, are: Thirty 
birds per man, with handicap- according to rating, and allowance 
also on the handicai>- targets. As, for instance, the 80 per cent, 
man would miss 6 in 30 and 1 in 6; consequently he is allowed 37 
targets, and so on down to the 50 per cent, man, who shoots at 53 
birds. This system gives even the poor shooter a fair chance 
to win, and consequently adds interest and attendance. Mr. G. H. 
Lane, who won the first contest, did so by virtue of an excellent 
score, which included .31 straight kills at the finish. The scores ■

The magautrap was set in front of the grand stand and the tar- 
gets thrown over the Connecticut River. Owing to the men hav- 
ing to stand on low ground, the targets were thrown very high 
and the wind blew very hard down the river. This made most of 
the targets either tower or dive, and the.^ shooting was very dit- 
ficult. C. H. Gibson, Sec'y. 
Auburn Gun Club. 
AuBUKN, Me., July '7. — The Auburn Gun Club held its weekly 
shoot Saturday afternoon with three squads in attendance, and as 
hot as it was in the city, they enjoyed a very pleasant, cool after- 
noon on the range. The same breeze that kept the shooters cool 
kept the mud pies flyipg and dodging pretty lively and is a regu-- 
lar attendant at, the shoots, for no matter how still and hot, it is in 
the city we always have that cool breeze on the hill. 
Mr. \\'. B. Barton was a guest of the club Saturday afternoon 
and did some v^ery nice shooting. The local shooters are warming 
up to the sport, as their scores will show, and the veteran trap- 
shocter Cy. K. Hunnewelt is always in form for a good score, bfe 
it rain or shine. The club hold their annual tournament Aug. 8, 
wjiich will give^the boys a chance to get in shape for the State' 
shoot, which W7II no doubt be held the latter part of the same 
month, ^ ^ C. E. Conkok, Treas.
