Omaha Gun Clwb. 
Omaha, Neb. — The Omaha Gun Club held its annual fall tourna- 
ment Oct. 13-15, at the famous old grounds just across the Missouri 
from town. The attendance was good, and the shoot a success in 
all except that the weather was most unfavorable. It was an am- 
ateur shoot, with division of purses on the per cent. plan. Targets 
were thrown rather unusually hard, and high averages therefore 
scarce. Billy Crosby was again high man on this end of the 
programme. 
The last day was devoted to live birds, one 25-bird handicap 
and a number of shorter informal events. The birds were very 
fast and the wind blew almost a gale, so that the utmost uncer- 
tainty characterized the day's work. It took rare good form and a 
strong element of luck to make good returns under these cir- 
cumstances, as is shown by the number of participants who 
landed below the points. C. M. Powers shot a magnificent race, 
and came out ahead with 24 to his credit. Scores follow:

Lint, Sec'y. 
Daltok, O. — Disagreeable weather prevailed at the tournament 
of the Dalton Gun Club, Oct. 8 and 9. The tournament, neverthe- 
less, was a success. The management worked hard to have ar- 
rangements so that ail could be taken care of and made as com- 
fortable as possible. The very heavy rain of the day and night 
previous no doubt kept some away, but those who came w;ere 
amply repaid for their trouble. Shooters were present from all 
over the State. The jNlassillon Gun Club was represented by 
eight members. High scores were difficult to make, as the first 
day was very cloudy and windy, with a drizzling rain in the 
afternoon. Friday morning opened raw and blustery, bvit cleared 
off toward noon, and the wind blew a gale, making the targets 
very eccentric in their flight. 
Phellis was high for the two days, breaking 366 out of a possible 
400. Snow, of Cleveland, was next with 365 breaks- to his credit. 
Snow, Raven and Buffalo Bill (H. Santmyer) drew the high gun 
. average money, and Santmyer, Jr., and Stilson were low guns. . 
Manager Santmyer had hard luck on the first day, caused by the 
breaking down of his gun, necessitating the use of a strange gun, 
which was in a measure responsible for his low score. 
The trade was represented by Messrs. Ralph L. Trimble, Max 
Hensler and C. W. Phellis. A very genial trio they proved to be. 
The scores:
