was tied for by Messrs. Wallace and Winslow, the prize, a box

Experts at Baltimore. 
Baltimore, Md., Dec. 21.— From Wilmington, Del,, the experts 
journeyed to Baltimore, to give a final exhibition shoot 'before 
separating for the holiday home comings. 
The exhibition was held on the grounds of the Baltimore Shoot- 
ing Association. The main event was at 100 targets, in strings 
of 25. 
The ground was covered with snow; the wind was strong and 
cold, and the glare was not a good kind of light for eyes intent 
on shooting. 
There was a good attendance of the local shooters, 24 in number. 
The best scores were made by C. W. Budd, of Iowa, and 
W. H. Heer, of Kansas City. Each broke 95 out of the possible 
100. 
C. B. Adams, of Iowa, a topnotcher in trapshooting, was second 
with 93. 
After the professionals had finished, twenty-four Baltimore 
shooters took part in one 25-target event. Lester German, J. 
Mowell Hawkins, Capt, James R. Malone and Hood Waters, who 
shot at a total of 100 targets, made 96 breaks — one better than 
the highest out-of-town man.

At "Watson Park. 
Chicago, 111.— Saturday, Dec. 17, was set apart by the Watson 
Park Shooting Park as turkey day. A liberal programme was 
provided, thus those not winning a turkey had recourse to a 
goose, duck or a chicken. All ties were shot off, which added 
interest to the target smashing during the whole of the after- 
noon. Boa, Lord, Vietmeyer, Willard and Tosetti won a. turkey 
and were then set' back a couple of yards and could win no 
more first prizes. 
The usual scores made at this park show how well it is set up 
and kept in order. There is every facility offered here for en- 
joyment at the traps. All strangers who may be in the city on 
Saturday or Sunday will find a warm bunch to shoot with should 
" they visit the old historic Watson's Park. Remember to drop 
in at Von Lengerke & Antoine's gun store, 277 Wabash avenue, 
and there make your wants known, and you will find the rest 
easy. The scores:
