Montclair, N. J., Feb. 27.— At the practice shoot on Feb. 27 
there was a good attendance and lots of fun. The targets were 
very swift. A wind blew in the face of the shooters, giving most 
of the targets a peculiar upward twist 
Over 1,100 targets were thrown. 
Many of the men tried experiments in 
gun; sighting, etc; these seores were not

East Millstone Qon Club. 
East Millstone, N. J., Feb. 22. — The first all-day merchandise 
shoot at targets was very successful, notwithstanding the hard 
rain all the morning of that day, and was very gratifying to the 
members of the newly organized East Millstone Gun Club. 
More than twenty-five shooters faced the traps during the day. 
Messrs. H. Carpender, E. Carpender, Blish, Van Nuys and Wil- 
son were the jolly delegation from the Brunswick Gun Club, while 
Dr. Pardee and M. Rosenthal crossed the flood in coming from 
Bound Brook. These comprised the out-of-town shooters, while 
the home club shooters were out in force, and being familiar with 
the grounds, succeeded in capturing eighteen out of the thirty 
prizes. 
The wind, which arose after it stopped raining, caused the tar- 
gets to soar or dip, and made the shooting exceedingly difficult. 
This accounts for the low scores, H. Carpender was high man, 
with 73 per cent., followed by Dr. Pardee, 71 per cent., and Van 
Cleef, 70 per cent., and Wilson 70 per, cent. Van Cleef, Welsh, 
Wilson and Carpender were largest prize winners, while Pardoe 
and Rcmsen were always in the money in the sweepstakes. 
Mr. Overbaugh. a trade representative, arrived in the afternoon, 
but did not shoot. The management feels quite safe in saying 
that all enjoyed the day thoroughly. Scorer, Mr. Swenson; 
referee, Mr. Pace; cashier, E. Garretson.
