Rochester Gan Club, 
Rochester, N. Y., April 13.— The long struggle between Messts. 
Harry M. Stewart and Thomas F. Adkin for the diamond medal 
emblematic of the county championship, resulted in favor of the 
latter at the shoot of the Rochester Gun Club to-day. This was 
their fourth shoot-off of the tie which occurred two weeks, ago, 
when Stewart defended the trophy. Two weeks ago yesterday 
Adkin and Stewart tied for high gun and again tied in two suc- 
cessive shoot-offs. Last week Wednesday there was another tie 
between tliem. 
The snow bothered the shooters yesterday. Stewart had retained 
the diamond medal since it was first offered. The scores in yes- 
terday's shoot-off follow: 
Adkin 23 22 24 24—93 Stewart 23 23 25 22—92 
Tliere were more members in attendance than usual. The 
diamond medal contest was the attraction. The scores:

Ossining Gun Club. 
OssiNiNG, N. Y., April 36. — Appended you will find the scores 
of the Ossining Gun Club, made at the regular bi-monthly shoot. 
We must blame the small attendance to the weather. A full 
gale blew out of the northwest, directly across the traps, which 
made the shooting most difficult, as the scores will testify. The 
team of the Ossining Gun Club will go to Poughkeepsie next 
Saturday, 23d Inst., to shoot against the Poughkeepsie and 
Schenectady gun clubs, 50 bluerocks per man. A fine shoot is 
anticipated. 
Changing the programme of our Decoration Day, May 30, 
shoot, as published, last week, the 25 target event will be $2 
entrance, instead of $2.50, and a trophy will be presented to the 
shooter making high percentage of breaks out of the 100 targets. 
Programmes will be sent on application to C. G. Blandford, 
captain, Ossining, N. Y.

Analostan Gun Club. 
Washington, D. C, April 17. — The annual meeting of the 
Analostan Gun Club, of Washington, D. C, was held recently, and 
the following officers were elected for the ensuing year: Bur- 
ridge Wilson, President; C. S. Wilson, Vice-President; Miles 
Taylor, Secretary; John Coleman, Treasurer; E. O. Craig, Cap- 
tain. 
Trustees: M. D. Hogan, W. R. Baker and W. H. Hunter, 
New grounds have been secured on the Tennallytown car line, 
overlooking the city, which are much more accessible than the 
old grounds on Analostan Island. The club, to be up to date, has 
ordered a Leggett trap, which will be installed this week. A new 
club house is being built, and when the improvements now 
under way are completed, the grounds will be the best any club 
has ever had in the District. New members are being added at 
each meeting, and the indications are at present that this will be 
a prosperous year for the club, and a lively one for the trapshoot- 
ers in this vicinity. Sec'y. 
Bristol Gun Club. 
Bristol, Tenn., April 14. — Not many were out to-day. The

His record has not been equaled by any new member. Messrs.

Mt. Kisco Gun Club. 
Mt. Kisco, N. Y., April 13.— The Mt. Kisco Gun Club held 
their first regular club shoot of the season to-day. Too much 
strong wind for hight scores prevailed. But the traps worked 
exceptionally well, and made very pleasant shooting. 
In practice and sweeps, 558 targets were thrown, and not one 
left the trap broken. Pretty good record. 
The club will shoot every other Wednesday. Next shoot

Pattenburg Gun Club. 
Pattenburg, N. J., April 15.— About twenty contestants took 
part in the tournament to-day. The scores below show the "re- 
sults. There were numerous prizes, and they were well dis- 
tributed; yet Harry Gano, of the home team, took all the first 
prizes, winning a hammerless gun, a Marlin repeating gun, a gold 
watch, and was in for first money m sweepstakes. 
The day was as nice as ever a day could be. Visitors were here 
from Baltimore, New York, Jersey City, Perth Amboy, Riagoes, 
Easton, and the surrounding towns. Our boys will soon put in 
a Leggett and hold a sweepstake shoot for a reopening. Due 
notice will be given. The trade was represented by J. M. Hawkins 
and H. Overbaugh. Mr. Hawkins did good work and left a good 
impression on the people here. Mr. Overbaugh, who has been 
with us before, has established himself with the boys, and they 
think things are not going right without him.

Hudson Gun Club. 
Jersey City, N. J., April 17.— The Hudson Gun Club held its 
second April shoot on April 17, and it was a good one; in fact, 
the best of the present year. The day was fine for target shooting 
and some good scores were made, especially the run of 34 by 
Schorty in the cup event. 
Mr. George Piercy kindly donated two fine hand-painted steins 
as prizes for a 100-target race. Schorty started off as if he in- 
tended to make a runaway race of it by breaking 25, while Chas. 
Dudley broke 20 and F. Schoverling 21. The prizes were won by 
Chas. Dudley and Schorty. At the close of the 100-target event, it 
was found that Schorty and Piercy were tied. Pope, Jr., shot a 
good race for a beginner. 
This club holds shoots every two weeks, the next being on 
May 1. The scores:

Bound Brook, N. J., April 17. — Herewith please find scores 
made at our silver shoot, AprilTO, entrance, price of targets. The 
day proved to be a very windy one, and the targets were very hard 
to land. The new trap worked very fairly; not a hitch all day 
long.

Capt. Money, Glover and Vosseler. Mr. Hawkins won high pro- 
fessional average, a silver cup. Mr. Bissett, of South River, N. J., 
won high air.ateur average, a silver loving cup. He also made the 
longest straight run, 24, which was a good many under the con- 
ditions. Mr. Lyon, of Raleigh, N. C, won second high amateur 
average, and the Easter loving cup with 23 out of 25, a very 
good score under the conditions. Some other winners were 
Tingley, Jules, Hadkins, Brown and Martin. Mr. Overbaugh did

Little Rock, Ark.— On April 8 John W. Dickinson, Jr., holder, 
and Nick Peay, challenger, met to dispute the possession of the 
Peters Cartridge Company's live bird trophy, emblematic of the 
State championship, on the grounds of the Little Rock Gun Club. 
The conditions of the match were 25 live birds per man. Interstate 
rules, 30yds. rise, challenger to put up $10 against the medal; 
winner to take money and medal, and loser to pay for the birds. 
Dickinson experienced little trouble in defending his title, and 
won handily by the score of 23 to 19. Peay, however, shot a much 
better race than the score indicates, and with a little more luck 
would have made matters more interesting. The birds were a good 
strong lot, and a fierce gale was blowing, which handicapped him 
materially and caused him to lose four very hard hit birds dead out 
of bounds and but two got away entirely. Dickinson also had 
one dead out of bounds. Litzke acted as referee. 
After the match, several 10-bird sweeps were shot. John Pem- 
berton showed to the best" advantage in these and scooped all the 
money. 
Little John Dickinson, No. 3, the thirteen-year-old son of J. 
W. Dickinson, Jr., did some very clever shooting considering the 
high wind, scoring 8 out of 10 in one event. Following are the 
scores of the match; 
Dickinson 21212212*1122121011222122—23
