Freeport Gon Clob. 
Freeport, L. I., Feb. 2. — The shoot of the Freeport Gun Club, 
which owing to the heavy snowstorm, was postponed from Jan. 
25. was held to-day, and drew a goodly attendance of shooters from 
different sections. Thirty shooters competed in the merchandise 
event. 
A very high wind and bitter cold weather made shooting any- 
thing but easy. The scores therefore are very creditable. 
The winner of the cup in event No. 6 and of the high amateur 
average, Mr. L. B. Huntington, of New Rochelle, N. Y., had 
never shot in an open tournament before. E. W. Reynolds won 
second choice, a handsome oak gun cabinet, in the merchandise 
event, and Shanley Smith the third prize, a copper shell case. 
The trade was represented by J. A. R. Elliott, J. S. Fanning, 
Neaf Apgar, H. S. Welles, Frank Butler and Sim Glover. 
Neaf Apgar made high score, 46, of actual breaks in the mam 
event and made the only score of 25 straight of the day. J. A. 
R. Elliott won the $5 offered as a prize for the professional high 
average. Mr. E. W. Reynolds was cashier. 
Ties in event 6 were shot off in event 10, at 25 targets, handi- 
caps being cttf m \^q.

New York Getman G«n CIttb* 
Herewith you will find the monthly scores for 1904 of the 
New York German Gtm Club, shot at Cutwater's, Carlstadt, N. J. 
You will notice all the months are filled out. 
The club held two special shoots, June 3 and 15, at 25 birds each. 
These were added to the other months so as to make up the 
year's score of . 10 birds each month, excluding the months of 
July and November. In these two months the club never shoots. 
You will notice Count Lenone has the club's first prize, 15 
points. 
The annual meeting was held Jan. 26, at Baudendistel's Hotel, 
for the election of officers and the distribution of prizes, of which 
you will find a list on the score sheet. 
The following officers were elected: J. F. Wellbrdck, Presi- 
dent; Peter Albert, Vice-President; J. P. Dannefelser, Treasurer; 
Emil Stefifens, Secretary; Peter Garms, Captain. 
The president appointed a committee to see what arrangements 
could be made for the club to shoot live birds at Allentown, Pa., 
and to report at a special meeting in February. After other busi- 
ness and discussions, the meeting adjourned, and the members 
partook of a game supper put up by member Baudendistel's wife. 
Between Peter Garms and President Wellbrock it was a clean 
score on the potatoes, for Wellbrock got the last dish and won 
out. 
After supper the table, was cleared and the members got real 
sociable. Doc Hudson sat with a big black powder cigar, throw- 
ing rings of smoke into the air that looked like Japanese bombs 
bursting over Port Arthur. Then came the gun surgeon, who 
has a hospital at No. 9 Chambers street. He was a pitiful look- 
ing sight, like all the commuters. The big snowstorm had him 
snowed in and he could not get to Orange, N. J. He had two or 
three time-tables, and was figuring which railroad would get their 
tracks clear of snow first, so we kept Mr. Dannefelser at Bau- 
dendistel's Hotel for the night, and we hope he slept walk Ten 
bu'ds were shot each month. 
Prizes taken were a rocker, dress suit scarf, toilet set, leather 
cartridge case, fishing pole, German beer mug, fancy gilt clock, 
$5 check for merchandise, order for merchandise, box of 100 
special cigars, check for $10 for merchandise, fancy gilt calendar, 
order for dress hat, Barnegat fishing reel, check for $3 for mer- 
chandise. : -

Analostan Gan Clob. 
Washington, D. C, Feb. 3.— The year 1904 marked an era of 
prosperity for the Analostan Gun Club of this city. In April, the 
club was reorganized with a small but enthusiastic membership. 
Excellent grounds were secured, first-class traps installed, and the 
affairs of the organization were conducted on strict business prin- 
ciples. The result of this was to interest the shooters, and, appli- 
cations for membership were received at every meeting. The 
club closed the season with an active membership of sixty-eight. 
Targets were thrown at one cent each, and more than 60,000 ^yere 
trapped during the season. All the improvements were paid for, 
and the club closed the season with a handsome balance in the 
treasury. 
The club contests were commenced on July 5 and closed on 
Oct. 27. The shooters were divided into three classes, A, B, and 
C. The trophies were two elegant silver cups, and the Hunter 
Arms Co.'s gold medal. The co.nditions were 25 targets, and the 
winners were handicapped one yard every time they were success- 
ful — the limit being 20yds. 
Mr. Jos. H. Hunter, one of our veterans at the trapshpoting 
game, won Class A trophy. He was successful four times, and 
his scores were 24, 23, 21 and 22. The runner up was Mr. L. 
F. C. I-Ieintz, who tied with Mr. Hunter in the number of wins, 
but was shot out for the prize. Messrs. Burridge Wilson and 
Francis Petrola each won it twice, and Messrs. Brown, Craig and 
Wilhite had wins to their credit. In the Class A shoots. Uncle 
Billy Wagner scored 23 four times out of six shoots, but did not 
contest for the trophy. 
The Class B trophy was won by Mr. F. N. Bauskett, who had 
a walkaway for it, winning it five times on scores of 21, 20, 20, 
21 and 18. W. H. Hunter won it twice on scores of 23 and 21, and 
M. D. Hogan the same number of times, his scores being 20 and 
23. Mr. Geo. Nalley also scored two wins for it, while Mr. Ralph 
Nvitting and Harry Utz were each successfiil once. 
The Class C trophy — the Hunter Arms Co.'s gold medal— was 
won by Dr. Bruce L. Taylor, who carried it away six times, his 
scores being 19, 15, 17, 18, 17 and 18. Dr. W. D. Monroe was the 
runner-up in this class, winning it four times on scores of 20, 18, 
18 and 14". Mr. Chas. Williams (the oldest and one of the most 
respected members of our club), won It twice, and Messrs. Pushaw 
and Flaven each scored one win for it. 
The club will offer numerous prizes for the year 1905, and ex- 
pects to increase the membership to 100 or more. More interest 
is manifested in trapshooting in Washington at this time than 
there has been since the '80s. The two days' tournament to be 
held May 30 and 31, will do much to stimulate interest in the 
spcrt. Assurances already received by the officers indicate that 
the tournament will be a great success. The $215 in cash which 
will be added to the purses has attracted the attention of shooters 
all over the East. The programmes will be ready for distribution 
about April 1, and can be had by addressing the secretary. Miles 
Taylor, 222 F street N. W., Washington, D. C.
