Ohio Trap* 
Cincinnati Gun Club* 
Aug. 13 was a hot, sultry day, the glass standing at over 90 in 
the shade on the Cincinnati Gun Club house veranda. The sun 
was partially obscured by light clouds and there was little wind. 
The light was poor. 
Sixteen shooters entered in the cash prize event, Herman head- 
ing the list with 45. Medico, shooting from 20yds., accounted for 
42, and Peters and Falk tied for third place on 41. 
Williams did some good shooting making the only straight score 
of the day in a 15-target event, and shooting at doubles from 
24yds., he broke 11 out of 6 pairs. 
In the cup race, twenty-three entries, Gambell and Medico tied 
on 23 for high score: Medico (18) 18, 23; Williams (18) 22 19; 
Peters (19) 18, 16; Herman (16) 19. 
Leonard Shepard, of Indianapolis, was at the grounds and took 
charge of things in the absence of Supt. Gambell, who did not 
get back from the Indian shoot at West Baden until 5 o'clock, 
owing to a freight wreck on the road, which delayed his train 
several hours. Mr. Shepard has resigned his position as Super- 
intendent of the Indianapolis Gun Club, and is visiting friends in 
Glendale, O. Several miss-and-out events were shot. 
Harold Money came back from West Baden with Gambell. He 
was not feeling well, as he had not fully recovered from effects 
of illness which he had in common with a number of other shoot- 
ers, at the Indian shoot. Yet it did not take much banter to 
induce him to shoot a match with Williams at 25 targets, he to 
shoot with one hand behind his back and Williams to have use 
of both hands. Result: Money 19, Williams 15. 
Maynard's poor showing was due to the fact that his gun got 
out of order. 
Tuttle and Keplinger, officers of the Peters Cartridge Co., are 
stayers. They did some very good work and kept together closely, 
the latter leading at the close of the day by 1 target, 94 to 93. 
Practice shooting was kept up by one squad of shooters until 
it became too dark to see the targets, and they didn't want to stop 
then. 
Cash prize shoot. 50 targets: Herman (16yds.) 45, Medico (20) 
42, Falk (17) 41, Peters (19) 41, Maynard (20) 39, Williams (18) 
38, Pfeiffer (16) '37, Norris (16) 36, Holloday (16) 36: Don Minto 
(16) 35, Tuttle (16) 30, Smith (16) 34, Campbell (16) 31, Keplinger 
(16) 30, Meyers (16) 18, Andrews (16) 15. 
Dayton Gun Club. 
The shoot at the grounds of the Dayton, O., Gun Club, on 
Aug. 5 was well attended. Seventeen members took part in the 
various events. There were five 25-target events, and in the first 
of these Diehl led with 24. He also made the longest run of the 
day, 30 straight. D. Tibballs made the next longest run, 29. 
Brady was high man with 94 out of 100; Diehl second with 91, and 
Tibballs third with 88. The shoot was kept up until approaching 
darkness forced the shooters to stop. 
The attendance Aug. 6 was larger than on Friday, twenty-one 
shooters taking part. The first event of the afternoon was the 
heavy-weight championship match at 50 targets between Ed Rike, 
3401bs., and Chas. Wyseng, 3121bs. Rike won this match with 49; 
Wyseng scored 42. 
Following this was a five-man team shoot, 25 targets per man, 
in which Rike's team was victorious by a score of 91 to 88. 
Then followed four 25-target events, shoot for the Gem City 
City medal, the day's sport winding up with a 25-target event, 
in which eleven members took part. 
Rike broke 142 out of 150 shot at, 96 out of his first 100; 98 out 
of 100 in events 2, 3, 4 and the medal event. D. Tibballs made 
two straights and broke 96 out of 100. Z. A. Craig 92. Rolla O. 
Heikes is getting back to his old form once more, and scored 91. 
The medal event had eleven entries, and was won by D. Tibbals 
with a straight score of 25. Z. A. Craig and E. Rike second 
with 24 each. R. O. Heikes third 23. 
The club will hold a tournament on Aug. 23, shooting to begin 
at 9:30 A. M. , 
Other Shoots. 
The weather on Aug. 10 was all that could be desired, and 
twelve men entered in the regular medal shoot of the Rohrer's 
Island Gun Club, of Dayton, O. Five members tied for first: 
H. Engle (32) 30, W. E. Kette (33) 27, Wm. Oldt (35) 27, C. F. 
Miller (26) 26, C. Hanauer (31) 26. The first shoot-off was at 10 
targets, Engle having a handicap of one extra target to shoot at: 
Hanauer 2, Oldt 4, and Kette and Miller 0. Engle and Kette tied 
on 10 each, the others scoring 9 and dropping out. In the second 
shoot-off Engle and Kette each shot at 6 targets, the former win- 
ning with a score of 5 to 1. Of the other shooters H. Lockwodo 
(26) and F. Oswald (32) were second with 24 each; Hanauer (26) 
23, E. Stoecklein (35) 22, J. Holmes (30) 21, F. Chambers (35) 20, 
J Schaerf (30) 19. 
Eight members took part in the eleventh trophy shoot of the 
Hamilton, O., Gun Club, held on Aug. 11. The weather conditions 
were nnc, and some good work was done. Parker was tied with 
E. D. C. for first on 45, and in the shoot-off the former won. 
Link and Stickels second with 42 each; Smith and Shumaker third 
with 41 each; Steinman fourth, 39; Wesley 32. 
The last shoot in the series of twenty handicap events of the 
Greenville, O., Gun Club was held on Aug. 8, six members taking 
part. Eidsen, Westerfield and Baker tied for first on 25 or better, 
the former winning the shoot-off. Fouts was second with 24, 
McCaughey third with 20, each shooting at 30 targets; Kirby fourth 
with 19 out of 25. W. Kirby and H. A. McCaughey having tied 
for first in the series, shot off, and the race proved to be the 
closest and most interesting which has ever taken place on these 
grounds. McCaughey is entitled to praise for his fine display of 
nerve and skill, as he is comparatively a new hand at the game. 
During the contest Kirby made a run of 41, and McCaughey one 
of 31. The first shoot-off was at 10 targets, each shooter having a 
handicap of 3 extra targets to shoot at, if they found it necessary; 
but each broke 10 straight. The reamining ten shoot-offs were at 
5 each, with a handicap of 1 extra target to shoot at in each event. 
Kirby won the shoot-off by 1 target, breaking 60 out of 61 shot at 
to McCaughey's 59 out of 65 shot at. Baker and Westerfield, who 
tied with Eidson to-day, wanted another try for the medal; so he 
put it tip, and Baker won. Then he put it up to please Wester- 
field; the latter won, and in his turn put it up, and Eidson proved 
his superiority by winning it for the second time in one day, and 
absolutely refused to take any more chances before the next club 
shoot. First prize, Parker gun, W. Kirby; second, corduroy hunt- 
ing coat and vest, H. A. McCaughey; third, leather gun case 
presented by Peters Arms and Sporting Goods Co., B. G. Eidson; 
fourth, shell case, W. F. Baker; fifth, woolen shooting jacket, 
Marion Westerfield; sixth, Jersey shooting jacket, Ed. Fouts. 
Not a breath of wind, thermometer registering 98, and targets 
thrown from magautrap, high and the right distance, were the 
conditions, on Aug. 12, under which record scores were made at 
the Dayton Gun Club's grounds. F. C. Dial, of Franklin, was the 
one who set the pace, and made a record for the new grounds of 
98 .-out of 100. He missed his 36th and 39th targets, and made a 
Straight run of 61. Lindemuth also shot in fine form, although he 
made a bad start, missing 3 out of the first 7. He then made a 
run of 74, missed his 82d, and finished second with 96. Pedro 
was third with 80, Jay T. fourth with 78, and Cord broke 67 out 
of 75 shot at. The trap pits are said to be the best in the country. 
Mr. Ryan, of Troy, is quoted as expressing this opinion, and he 
has certainly seen a lot of them, and ought to know.

WESTERN TRAP. 
Litchfield Tournament. 
itchfield 111.— On Aug. 9 the fourth tournament of the season 
of 1904 was' held, and it seems strange that there was a slim 
attendance, as there is everything at Litchfield to make a tourna- 
ment a success. It is very probable that the Indian shoot was 
mostly responsible for the falling off. 
On the second day the regular programme was abandoned, and 
a 100-target race was the amusement. In this Cummings won 
with 95 Vietmeyer was high professional and Cummings high 
amateur. • Ward Burton second and Snell and Stoner a tie. 
Mr Cummings seems to be honest in his opinion, and he 
states that this club has really the best-equipped shooting grounds 
in several states. The scores : . .

bay horse after the shooting becomes monotonous. 
When a programme comes into the office, and an inspection 
reveals that the secretary has printed therein "bluerock," "dickey 
birds," "blackbirds," "white flyers," "coast pigeons," etc., how 
well we may excuse the reporter for the daily and weekly papers 
when they refer to the sport as cruel, and as they print from the 
programme the word "bird" will naturally arouse the goody 
people when they note that at a shoot extending over four days 
the slaughter was 10,0(0 per day. 
The Indiana League of Trapshooters will hold a tournament at 
Lafayette, Sept. 8 and 9. The well-known Joe Blistain is secre-

Asheville Gun Club. 
Asheville, N. G, Aug. 8. — Our first handicap for a cup pre- 
sented by Mr. R. W. Bingham, brought out twenty-one of our 
members for the first time this season, and considering the small 
grounds upon which the committee had to work, the result shows 
how well the handicaps were arranged and how difficult the task, 
as both birds and distance were necessary to give each a show- 
ing. Some of them have never shot at the trap before, and 
some not for many years, until a few weeks ago. Mr. Lemcke 
and Capt. Gudger were guests. Scores inclosed herewith. Tie to 
be shot off on 10th :

Aug. 11. — Inclosed scores made in the second handicap for the 
Bingham cup, which was landed without a fight by Dr. S. W. 
Battle, 14yds., 10 birds added. 
The tie for the cup, Aug. 6, was won by J. D. Carrier, with 
24 out of 25 from the 20yd. mark. The general shooting was better, 
although a puffy wind from behind caused the targets to duck 
completely out of the load very frequently, and before the finiph 
it rained, so that for an hour we had nothing to do but bear the 
tales that were told, and "drown our sorrows."

Club, of this city, held its nineteenth regular shoot at Recrea- 
tion Park this afternoon, with sixteen men and several lady

were chalked up by the various members. The new carrier for 
our trap was tried, and it gives somewhat better satisfaction than 
the old stayle.
