WESTERN TRAP. 
Brandon Gun Club. 
Brandon, Man., Aug. 12. — The annual trapshooting tournament 
of the Brandon, Man., Gun Club was held at the club grounds 
on Aug. 12, and proved to be the most enjoyable and altogether 
successful of any yet held by this organization. A number of 
shooters were present from KiLarney, Fort Garrys, Winnipeg, 
Portage La Prairie, Virden, Yorkton and others. The Fort 
Garry Club came off victors; their team was composed of Bain, 
Johnson, Britton and Turner; they take away the Brandon chal- 
lenge cup. The high average was won by Paul Johnson, with R. 
J. McKay second. There was a strong wind, which caused many 
•'rocky" scores; even the old hands found that they could not 
gauge them. 
Bod Lane, of Brandon, managed, and carried . the shoot to a 
perfection hard to excel. 
It was not the club's fault that hotel accommodations were 
limited, and individually they sought to provide for the comforts 
of all -present. The totals follow: ■

Audubon Tournament* 
Audubon, la., Aug. 17. — On Tuesday the boys who compose the 
gun club conducted a one-day shoot, and the shooters to the 
extent of twenty-eight came from the surrounding towns, and a 
good time was the result. 
The weather was on the cloudy order, and during the last two 
events the wind developed into a storm that made shooting very 
uncertain. Some good scores were made, especially that of 
C. B. Adams, 193 out of 200. C. E. Petty came on strong for a 
new shot, and made high amateur average, 188, leading the ex- 
cellent shot Russell Klein, by just 3 targets for the day. Wm. 
Lambert came third with 180. 
The club here is composed of a rare lot of sportsmen. The 
grounds and traps are well nigh to perfection, and there was 
general comment on the way the shoot was conducted. All pres- 
ent Will act as boosters for the next shoot they hold. 
The club and participants were under obligations to Mr. Fred 
Whitney for the easy and careful manner in which he kept the 
office and passed out the tickets with the cash at close of the 
shoot." L 
The programme consisted of thirteen events, 10, 15, 20 and 25 
targets. Following are the totals:

In Other Places, 
At the good city of Lafayette, Ind., a new amateur club is to 
be ^started. Fred Jamison is at the head of affairs, and with 
twenty-five names to his list, success is assured. 
The programme for the Davis County Gun Club shows that there 
will be a challenge medal open to shooters in both Kentucky and 
Ii.dfana. 
The second shoot between the Detroit and Battle Creek, Mich., 
clubs was pulled off last Sunday, and this time Battle Creek won 
out, though with a small margin. The third and deciding match 
will be held in two weeks, at Jackson, the half-way place. Some 
good shooting was done, Nelson, for Battle Creek, making 48, 
and Marx 49 and Schaberle, of Detroit, 48. Total score: Battle 
Creek 302, Detroit 298. 
At a meeting of the Highland Gun Club, of Duluth, Minn., 
Bert Holcomb was elected as captain. Plans were discussed 
leading to establishing a new ground. The management is to be 
congratulated, as, starting in February last, they are now twenty- 
eight members. 
Peter. Galles won the medal at the Kenosho Gun Club on 
Sunday last. Fred Palmgreen was second. 
When you see a good gun club in a town it can generally be de- 
pended on that some one man is the leading genius. So in this 
case, Fred Keef is the man at Kalamazoo, and now comes the 
announcement that he will secure the silver loving cup for com- 
petition. A strong string of rules has been provided, which call 
for handicaps from 14 to 23yds. 
The Bridge City Gun Club, of Logansport, Ind., is keeping up 
weekly practice, and will hold a shoot Labor Day. The last 
time out the high scores were made by Furgeson and Jenkins. 
The Freeport, 111., Gun Club will hold their practice shoot 
every Friday. 
The Homer-Ogden Club, of Illinois, made famous through 
Charlie Wiggins, is holding regular weekly matinees. 
The Lincoln City, 111., Gun Club has leased grounds at the 
Johnston race track, and will hold regular shoots until Sept. 21 
and 22, when a tournament will be held. 
At the last regular shoot of the Pastimes, of Detroit, the 
medals were won, viz.: Class A, Wolf; Class B, Whitmore; 
Class C, Gordon; Class D, AVebber. 
Charley Grimm , has been heard from. He has organized a gun 
club at his home town, Clear Lake. McGowan is president, Martin 
Peterson, Vice-President, L. E. Boyd, secretary. 
The Biloxi Gun Club held a tournament,_ Aug. 20 and 21, at 
which many shooters were expected to participate. 
Kalamazoo, Mich., will hold a tournament Sept. . 3 and 4, if 
plans mature that are now under consideration. 
The Fort Adams, Miss., Gun Club held a tournament Satur- 
day last, and Dr. Magruder, of Woodville, made high score, 99 
out of 103. 
There will be an awakening m the old Lafayette, Ind., Club 
scon. About once a year Livinguth, Thompson, Blistain and 
Kraus get going sufficient to pull off a tournament. The an- 
nouncement is made of a league shoot to be held Sept. 8 and 9, on 
the Interurban street car line, which will obviate any possibility 
of a stick in the river, which sad fate befell those who trusted the 
boat ride on the occasion of the last shoot. Since this club lost 
their famous old park, it has been without a home. If the old 
traps possessed by this club could be placed on exhibition it 
would be the wonder of the trapshooting world. 
Trapshooting at Des Moines, la., has blossomed out afresh. At 
the last meeting, H. Patterson made the very excellent score of 
97 per cent., Mr. French 90 and Holgerson 89. Holgerson, Wind- 
sor and Patterson tied on Hopkins Bros.' prizes, each scoring 
24 out of 25. This should cause our C. W. Budd to look to his 
laurels. . , , 
And now comes Elkhead, Ind., with an announcement that the 
Highland Gun Club will hold a shoot, with many visitors from 
South Bend and other nearby cities, to assist them. What a 
great convenience the trolley cars are to the trapshooters. 
At Wellsburg, la., a new gun club has been organized. _ In a 
statement made, the promoters claim that the principal object of 
the club will center in the enforcement of the game laws m their 
immediate vicinity. . ■ 
Another new gun club has been organized at Eansmg, Mich. 
About forty names have been recorded with a promise of making 
it a social club. There will be target tournaments held at various 
times during the season. The officers are: President, J. E. 
Nichols; Vice-President, Frank G. Rome; Secretary, Homer D. 
Parker; Treasurer, Fred Hopkins. 
The Saturday Afternoon Club at Beldmg, Mich., has been 
resurrected, and shoots will be held each week until cold weather 
gets in. 
The Pine Bluff, Ark., Gun Club was visited last week by Jack 
Fanning,- and of course there was a visit to the shooting park. 
The scores made will put the home boys on edge for the re- 
mainder of the season. Scores at 20 and 25 targets: Fanning 
19 22; Clements 17, 23; Ambrose 16, 21; Lloyd 12, 14; Simpson 
12. 18; Arnold 15, 18. 
There was not a large turn-out at the Janesville, Wis., last 
shoot, owing to many being , off rusticating. As the fishing is 
good, there is ample excuse. 
A letter from Portage, Wis., states that Guy Derihg, of Colum- 
bus, won the high average of 94 per cent, at the Fox Lake tourna- 
ment, held Aug. 13. Joe Raup, of Portage, was second. The 
shooting on the whole was below par, as 66 per cent, only was 
scored of the 3,000 targets thrown. 
Owing to the state shoot, at which all non-residents are barred, 
the Ft. Smith, Ark., boys were out and held a practice shoot. 
H. C. Cox made 23, Walter Mann and Mr. Copeland were next. 
To show how the trapshooting comes and goes, it will be inter- 
esting to mention that Mr. Copeland has not shot over the traps 
before in five years, although he was formerly one of the best in 
the State. 
The fifth semi-annual shoot for the gold medal will be held at 
Watertown, Wis., Sunday. There will be twelve events, and the 
Jefferson county medal will be the center of attraction. H. C. 
Ryder, of Waterloo, is the present holder of this medal. 
Mr. G. F. Burmister managed a very good shoot on Aug. 15 
for the Donahue, la., Gun Club. Shooters were present from 
the towns of Davenport, and the nearby villages. This being 
the first; shoot the club was much elated at its success. At the. 
completion of the programme there was yet time for other amuse- 
ments, and many of the shooters put away their guns for the 
more vigorous exercise of dancing. 
The shoot at Elkhead, Ind., was a success from the standpoint 
of attendance, as there were forty-five shooters present from the 
surrounding towns of northern Indiana, viz., Knox, La Porte, 
South Bend, La Grange. Bitner and Kolb, of Goshen rather had 
the best of first money positions. The success of the day stimu- 
lated South Bend 'enthusiasts to announce that a shoot will be 
held by them in September. 
The Tacoma, Wash., Gun Club are enthusiastic in their deter- 
mination to win the prize at the next Association shoot, which 
will be held at Cosmopolis. To this end weekly practice shoots

Chicago, Aug. 20.— The appended scores were made on our 
grounds to-day on the occasion of the third trophy shoot of the 
third series. McKinnon wen the Class A trophy on 24. W. Ein- 
feldt won Class B on 23. Kehl won Class C. on 20. 
In the cup shoot, which followed, Thomas won Class A on 23, 
Kamp, Class B on 23, and Birkland, Jr., Class C on 17. The cup 
shoot was at 15 singles and 5 pairs. 
The day was an ideal one for trapshooting, being just pleasantly 
warm and but little wind, and twenty-eight shooters took advan- 
tage of it for an afternoon's sport at the traps. All had all the 
shooting they wanted, and all went off very pleasantly.

IN NEW JERSEY. 
Fairview Gun Club. 
Fairview, N. J., Aug. 20. — The main .event was the cup race. 
In it Mr. H. von Lengerke was high with 45 out of 50, breaking 
his last 34 straight; but he did not compete for the cup. The 
conditions were 50 targets, from the 19yds. mark. 
Owing to the threatening weather, the attendance was less 
than it otherwise would have been. Dr. Moeller was heavily 
handicapped by shooting his field gun with 26in. cylinder barrels.

Bound Brook Gun Club. 
Bound Brook, N. J., Aug. 20.— This, our regular afternoon, 
turned out quite rainy and windy, but it did not keep sixteen 
shooters from taking part. Event No. 1 was won ! by Mr. Moffatt, 
of Westfield. Mr. Brugman, of New York, proved to be the crack 
amateur, winning a majority of the prizes, including the sterling 
spoon and silver loving cup. Mr. Stella won the Pardoe cup. 
Mr. Du Four second. Mr. Welles shot through the programme at 
a 90 per cent. gait. 
Dr. Pardoe won the gold scarfpin in the Jack Snipe event. This 
event proved quite a novelty; none of the shooters present had 
shot this way before. Mr. Brugman and W. D. Pardoe tied for 
second money in event No. 1. Messrs. Hand and Enderbrook, 
of the Franklin Gun Club, of Trenton, were present.
