Bound Brook Gun Club. 
Bound Brook, N. J., Feb. 2— Our secretary has asked me 
to hand you our scores of Jan. 30. We had an all-day shoot 
which was well attended. There were shooters from New York, 
Jersey City, Sommerville, Flemington, Trenton, New Brunswick, 
Plainfield, New Market, Dunellen, North Branch, Grandview, 
Martinsville, etc. Mr. Jack Fanning won the gold piece for high 
professional average. Mr. Sim Glover won the gold piece for 
longest straight run, 49 straight. Mr. Tingley, of Trenton, made 
high amateur average. The programme consisted of 15 events. 
Events 1, 5, 9, and 15, were sweepstakes. The other events 
were for free merchandise prizes, entrance, price of targets only. 
They consisted of tea sets, framed pictures, jewelry, brie a brae, 
etc. 
The merchandise events seemed te be very popular, and the 
shooters were well pleased. A vote of thanks was given the 
Bound Brook Gun Club for the hot lunch which was served 
free to the shooters. Mr. Tingley, of Trenton, won several prizes, 
including gold cuff buttons, and first money alone in the 25- 
target sweep. Mr. Rupell, of North Branch, N. J., won several 
prizes, including a fine brier pipe. Mr. Hunt, of Flemington, 
won a fine picture of the poets. Mr. Bisette, of South River, 
won a tea set and several other prizes. Messrs Wilson, Hobbs, 
Van Nuis and Corbender, from New Brunswick, were among 
the prize v/inners. 
A squad of shooters from East Millstone were present. They 
ended the day by having an exciting miss and out event. Over 
30 shooters were present. Much fun was had over the merchan- 
dise prizes. 
Our regular club shoot comes on the third Saturday of each 
month, but Monday, Washington's Birthday, being a holiday, 
we will hold our club shoot on that day. Visitors are always 
welcome at our club shoot. We expect to shoot for a .22 
Winchester on the 22d inst.

Boston Gun Club. 
Boston, Mass., Feb. 3. — The 1904 series of the Boston Gun Club 
was inaugurated to-day on their grounds at. Wellington, and as 
usual a goodly number of enthusiasts were present to lend a hand 
to the good time. Many new faces were seen for the first time on 
our grounds, among them being Climax; Bartlett, of Harvard; 
and Gokey, of Watertown; the former having things all to hiiri- 
self on the 21 yards mark, and most assuredly made some very 
creditable scores, his 22 on the team match being a combination 
of good shells, good gun, and last but not least, good aiming. 
Bartlett, while not up to his usual form, will no doubt bear watch- 
ing, and after getting used to the conditions of grounds, etc., 
will make tracks for the top of the list. Gokey, while a com- 
paratively new acquisition to the trapshooting ranks, evidently will 
come later on; a strange gun- being quite disastrous for high 
scores. Haze Kellar was there also, and seemed all the time 
to want to trim John Bell, the latter resenting such treatmen not 
a little, though Haze did have the laugh on him in the team 
match, but John quietly shot the next event, and had the satis- 
faction of vanquishing his enemy with a straight score, the only 
one made during the afternoon. 
In the prize match, Hodsdon, at 19 yards, was high, with 19, 
the tricky wind probably preventing a 21, though Keller and Bell 
had 18, and thought they shot like a streak. Others follower just 
one bird behind, and were very well pleased with the looks of the 
score board, as compared to what they expected. Other scores:

Poughfcecpsie Gun Club, 
PouGHKEEPSiE, N. Y., Feb. 4.— The regular monthly shoot of the 
Poughkeepsie Gun Club, held to-day, was fairly well attended. The 
bitterness of the cold perhaps kept a few away, as well as being 
responsible for the rather low scores. Except for the county 
championship race, which was a walkover for Tallman, the events 
were well contested. This was a 100-bird race, and the holder of 
the medal and title, Capt. Traver, was defending it against Tall- 
man, the challenger, as well as others, it also being an open event. 
Events 4, 5, 6 and 7 constituted this race, and after the first string 
it was seen that Tallman would probably be the easy winner that 
he proved to be. Du Bois won the club cup with a full score. 
Three men, Tallman, Rhodes and Marshall, tied for the Traver 
cup. In the shoot-off, however, Marshall scored a win with a full 
score. The cup events were run in with the championship race, 
eventsj^nd 5 constituting same, and No. 7 answering as shoot-off:

Cincinnati Gun Club. 
Twenty-three members took part in the contest of the Parker 
prize gun series on Feb. 6. The day was warm and clear, but 
a strong wind acro.ss the traps from the right made the targets 
very erratic, and the scores in some cases were not up to the 
average. Randall was high man in actual breaks, with 89, break- 
ing his last 20 straight. Linn and Ahlers tied on 88 each for 
second place, and Dick came third, with 81. Eleven full scores, 
including handicaps, were made. 
C. Dreihs was at the grounds for the first time in several weeks. 
He starts next week on a business' trip, Middlesboro, Ky., being 
his first stop. 
A. Sunderbruch has been under the weather lately, and was not 
in his usual form, but managed to get the best of Gambell in 3 
friendly match at 50 targets. 
Considerable practice shooting was indulged in, but everybody 
finished before dusk. 
Capt. A. W. DuBray is in the city for a brief stay, before an- 
other missionary trip for the Parker gun. The scores follow: 
Parker prize gun, 100 targets, handicap of added targets.

day on the club grounds, the following scores were made;

D C Kendig 50 26 
Owing to the inclement weather, the usual good attendance was 
lacking, as at these shoots, if the weather is at all pleasant, we 
have a great many more shooters present. 
At the regular monthly meeting, held Sunday, Feb. 7, the fol- 
lowing officers were elected for the following year: President, J. 
H. Heil; Vice-President, J. E. Genther; Financial Secretary, 'w. 
Ivey; Corresponding Secretary, E. F. Markley; Treasurer, w'. H. 
Maurer; Trustees, J. Pleiss, W. Ivey, O. Skeds; Captain, H.' 
Brunner; Assistant Captain, E. F. Markley. 
At this meeting is was finally decided that the club would hold 
their first annual target tournament on April 21, and that the 
professional gaining high average for the entire shoot would re- 
ceive $5, and for the three best amateurs shooting through the 
entire programme,, a purse of $6 would be divided between them as 
follows: 3, 3, 1. As there was never a tournament held in this city 
before, every effort is being made to make this first one a success 
in every particular. Our club is now in a thriving condition, both 
financially and in membership, we having now fifty-six members 
all in good standing, and we think we have not a few good shots 
who have partly learned the art of filling the air with dust at the 
crack of their guns. We also have some very good rifle and pistol 
shots, who need not be ashamed to say that they know something 
about the smaller, firearms. E. F. Markley, Sec'y.
