Colombia Pistol and Rifle Club, 
San Francisco, Dec. 22 — Columbia Pistol and Rifle Club held 
is ninth annual banquet and prize distribution for 1901, Dec. 22. 
ifty members and friends took part. It was the most enjoyable 
ithering yet in our history, and this has been the best^shooting 
lar. We also have a larger membership than ever before, though 
Was said that an American club could not exist here, and there 
IS been much effort put forth to destroy us. Still being on top, 
e can wish our enemies as well as our friends a happy New Year. 
The adoption of Walnut Hill's system of shooting on clean tar- 
ets at 50yds. has been a great benefit to the club, and our close 
ieasurement keeps the shooters busy to beat it, causing rapid 
tiprovement in the art. Our aim has been to elevate, not de- 
snerate, the art of shooting; this, we believe, is American, ana 
ill be supported by the lovers of true sport. 
The winners of the year are as follows, shooting being off-hand 
k Columbia target. The prizes, Columbia medals and bars, being 
on on 10 best scores, re-entry. .

Hoffman shot his new rifle, which he had just received. It is a 
eauty, and he was well pleased with his average shooting and 
romises to be in it next season. 
Th is was one of the liveliest shooting days ever experienced in 
;e club. Every one was out for a few more points, to win a higher 
:ore and place in the prize matches, and some succeeded, while 
Iters lost by only one point. 
The annual banquet will be held Dec. 22, when prizes and medals 
ill be awarded and winners published, also team shoot.

Rifle at Shell Mound. 
San Francisco, Dec. 23.— The attendance of marksmen at Shell 
found range yesterday was unusually large, owing chiefly to its 
eing the last day of the yearly competition for medals and prizes 
i some of the clubs. Moreover, the day was simply perfect for 
fle work. 
The Golden Gate Rifle and Pistol Club closed its year's work 
ith a delightful banquet in Capt. Siebe's dining hall, on the range, 
hirty-five members and a few guests were present. After the 
feast there was a distribution of prizes %von during the ycafj to- 
gether with much merriment and speechmaking. 
The best prizes were won by some of the youngfer marksmen, a 
result not unexpected, as the various open-to-all events were con- 
ducted on a handicap basis. This, while hard on the scratch men 
and veterans, mightily stimulates the "colts." . 
The winners of the rifle events in order were A. Gehret, M. i. 
Blasse, C. M. Henderson, A. B. Dorrell and D. B. Faktor. 
■ Winners of pistol contest: J. E. Gorman, and P. A. Becker. 
Winners of revolver contest: W. F. Blasse and Major Tomp- 
kins. . _ .

clubs since. Roeel.

At the range of the Massachusetts Rifle Association, Walnut 
Hill, Mass., Dec. 7, Thomas Anderton, the well-known pistol shot, 
broke the 50-shot pistol record at 50yds. on the standard American 
target. He scored 476 points, which exceeds the former record by 
one point. The old record of 475 points was held by J. E. Gorman, 
of San Francisco, Cal. Mr. Anderton used Peters long rifle car- 
tridges in making this new record. A copy of his target reduced 
from an eight-inch bullseye is shown herewith.

Mr. Frank E. Butler, slttce retiring froth the Wild West show, 
has been active in trapshooting in a quiet, unostentatious way. 
On Friday of last week at Interstate Park, he shot a match at 
50 live birds with Mr. A. H. "Hoffman," of Nutley, N. J. The 
latter is an amateur, and this match was his first attempt at 
pigeon shooting. He scored 34 to Butler's 36. On the day fol- 
lowing* they shot a match at 100 targets, in which "Hoffman" 
scored 76 to Butler's 71. Mr. Butler has given quite an impetus 
to the sport since settling in his old home in Nutley. A new 
gun club is in process of formation. We are pleased to say that 
his wife (Annie Oakley) is recovering surely from the frightful 
railroad accident which she experienced some weeks ago. She was 
under a doctor's care till a recent period, as a result of the injuries 
received. 
Arrangements on the New Year's Day shoot at Interstate Park 
were made between Messrs. Frank D. Creamer and W. L. Wood 
on the one side and Messrs. C. A. Lockwood and T. R. Chapman 
on the other, to shoot a team race at 25 live birds or more per 
man at Interstate Park at some date in the near future, or pos- 
sibly some day this week. All arc members of the New Utrecht 
Gun Club. This race should be one of great interest as all the 
contestants are skillful, high-class amateurs. 
New Year's Day was the twenty-fifth anniversary of the New 
Utrecht Gun Club, and it celebrated the day in a most pleasant 
and active manner by holding a shoot at Interstate Park. There 
was an excellent attendance of members and their friends. The 
club rooms in the Casino are elegantly furnished, and few clubs 
combine so much in the way of pleasing competition, good at- 
tendance and club domicile. 
The Brooklyn Gun Club, of which Mr. John S. Wright is the 
manager, will hold their regular monthly cup shoot on Saturday 
of this week. The conditions are 30 singles and 10 pairs, handi- 
cap. The loving cup, the trophy of this contest, has been on ex- 
hibition at 318 Broadway for some days, and it has evoked much 
interest in its beauty, and much desire for its ownership. 
Mr. C. W. Billings, one of the active and popular shooters of 
New York, left on Monday of this week with his family for 
Florida, to spend the winter and spring months in his home on 
the Indian River. Mr. Billings has in a great measure 
given up shooting at the traps for the greater pleasures of field 
shooting and sport with the rod. 
Although this session of the New York Legislature has hardly 
well begun, the anti-pigeon shooters are already endeavoring to 
induce legislation which will make illegal the shooting of pigeons 
from the traps. Since the world began there seems to be a 
steadily growing class of mote hunters, those who remove motes 
from their neighbors' eyes. 
Mr. E. Detmold, of Von Lefigerke & Detmold, 318 Broadway, 
New York, has taken a month off for an outing, which he much 
needs, after a very close attention to business through a long, 
active season. He left Saturday of last week on an ocean voyage 
southward, where the winter is free from the arctic rigors of the 
North.

The match last Saturday between Messrs. L. Colquitt, of 
South Orange, N. J., and E. Geoffrey, of Newark, for $25 a side, 
was won by the iatter by a score of 15 to 14. This contest took 
place on the grounds of the East Side Gun Club, Ferry and 
Foundry streets, Newark. Mr. Carl Von Lengerke acted as

We are informed that the contest between Capt. A. W. Money 
and G. H. Piercy, holder, for the E. C, trophy, emblematic of the 
championship of New Jersey, will take place on Jan. 15, probably 
on the grounds of the Jackson Gun Club, of Paterson. The trolley 
between Paterson and Signac passes close by the club grounds. 
The Ideal Gun Club was recently formed in Michigan, its 
members being of Trenton, Wyandotte and River Rogue. It will 
shoot live birds.- Mr. F. J. Linderman is the secretary. It held 
two contests in December for a loving cup, presented by the 
Peters Cartridge Company, of Cincinnati. 
Among the gentlemen famous in the world of sport there are 
visiting in New York Messrs. J. Hildreth and J. H. Cameron, 
of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company; Mr. J. L. Head, of 
the U. M. C. Company, and Mr. J. S. Fanning, of the Laflin & 
Rand Powder Company. 
On New Year's Day Mr. S. T. Mallory, of Parkersburg, and 
"Dade," of Sistersville, W. Va., contested for the target cham- 
pionship of West Virginia. The former won by a score of 87 to 
84 out of a possible 100. Another contest will take place for the 
badge on Jan. 11. 
Mr. S. M. Van Allen contemplates giving a live-bird shoot in 
early February at Interstate Park, The prizes will be in cash, and 
will be added outright; that is to say, the added money and the 
entrance fees minus the cost of the birds will all go to the con- 
testants. 
At the New Year's Day shoot of the Sheepshead Bay, L. I., 
Rod and Gun Club Mr. Ed Voorhies alone killed straight in the 
main event and won first prize. Messrs. A. Linder and J. Tabor 
tied for second; in the shoot-off, miss-and-out, the latter won. 
Mr. F. T. Bedford, Jr., was high man in the contest for the 
New Year's cup, at the shoot of the Crescent Athletic Club, Bay 
Ridge, L. I., Jan, 1. He scored 48 out of a possible 50, Mr, H. 
B. Vandeveer was close up to the leader, he scoring 47. 
Messrs. Waters and Farraday left New York on Saturday of 
last week on a business trip to Cuba, in the interest of their, 
cornpany, the Laflin • & Rand Powder Company. They sailed on 
the Prinzessin Victoria Luise. 
The secretary, Mr. F. B. Cunningham, of St. Joseph, Mo., in- 
forms us that the next Missouri Amateur Shooting Association's 
tournament will be held at St. Joseph, Mo., on April 14, 15 and 16. 
On the grounds of the Clearview Gun Club the home club
