Aofora Gtfn Clob. 
Aurora, 111., May 30.— This holiday was chosen as the best 
time to start up the Aurora Gun Club for this season. It was 
the intention to elect officers and get in line for this season's 
shooting, but many had business elsewhere, and the election was 
postponed until all the old officers should be present. 
The policy usually pursued by this club is to give some prizes 
af each shoot that would go to the winner of the event. The most 
popular prize has been that of silver spoons, and on this occa- 
sion two of the first prizes were won by Mr. Linn, who is a 
scratch man, while Henry Tanner, the oldest man in the club, 
took home another. 
There was considerable mterest in the medal shoot, as Linn, 
Parker and Tanner each had won it twice, and a third win for 
either meant ownership. All were somewhat surprised when Rob 
Kendall came on with his automatic and won out with more than 
a straight after adding his handicap. All were glad to see him 
win, as that would keep the medal in the club. The scores:

June 1 opened up warm and bright. It was such a lovely day 
to cultivate the growing corn that few of the farmers could be 
indticed to forsake the plow even for one day, yet there were 
nineteen who shot during the day. Nearly all shot the entire 
programme of 225 targets. 
The club is a large one, and yet there are but few who shoot 
in the programme events. The officers are: Will. A. Johnson, 
President; Homer Brown, Secretary; Chris. Mans, Treasurer, and 
Richard Keene, Captain. These gentlemen were ably asisted in 
the details of arrangements and the carrying out of same by the 
genial Tramp Irwin. 
The members were agreeably surprised to find Frank Riehl and 
W. H. Cadwallader present as experts. Both gave good exhibi- 
tions, neither being in good trim, as they came from, other 
shoots and were on the road all night, and were using strange 
guns. 
Mr. Riehl ran the first 70 straight, and finished the day with 
only 8 misses out of 225, while Cadwallader lost 7 more. 
. J. C. Harris came in little late, but shot up the programme and 
won high average with 208. Mr. Rosalius made 204, and J. T. 
Parks 202. 
These good scores show that this club havf good grounds and 
good traps, and know how to conduct a tournament. 
Those present were J. T. Parks, Brooks, Ind. ; A. P. Smith, 
Goodwin, 111.; T. P. Blessing, Milford, 111.; J. D. Neal, Rantoul;

win the G. A. H. 
Indianapolis gun clubs are now in consultation with the game 
warden, having the project of buying quail and turning them loose 
in the State to recuperate' the losses of last winter's cold and 
snow. A better plan would be to feed the quail each winter, then 
they will not succtimb to the winter's blasts. 
Fort Wayne, Ind., now has a new gun club. It may never 
rival the Corner Club, but the sportsmen of the South Side 
report that the membership is rapidly growing. This is good 
news. 
June 4, was the day set for the opening shoot of the Corner 
Rod and Gun Club of Fort Wayne, Ind. A bridge was destroyed 
and that caused the delay. 
Little has been heard of James Head since he was put on as a 
salesman, but his town of Peru was lately heard from at Prince- 
ton, N. J., where the gun championship was won by J. H. Stutes- 
man, '05, of Peru, Ind., with 90 out of 100. Why of course he 
is one of James Head's pupils. He was a trapper at the big 
shoot when Tramp Irwin shot the old tent full of holes, making 
patterns with his gun. 
The late shoot at Sacramento was a State shoot, and not, as 
heretofore, confined to entries from northern California. Iii con- 
sequence there was a large attendance of sportsmen. 
At the Sunday shoot of the Missoula, Mont., Gun Club, A. W. 
Woodworth won the B. M. Francis medal. B. M. Francis won the 
spoon with 14 out of 15. He also won the diamond medal. The 
wind blew hard across the traps. The marksmen were practicing 
hard, with a view of winning the prizes at the State shoot. 
All sportsmen are invited to join an association lately formed at 
Alden, la. The object is to maintain law and order sentiment 
on the subject of game preservation in accordance with the 
State law. The officers elected are: C. D. Parsons, President; 
G. B. Lighthall, Secretary; W. M.- Cousin, Treasurer; F. L. 
Spencer and S. A. Fisher are on the Committee on By-Laws. 
The chilled atmosph'ere made the attendance small at the 
Lemar, la., shoot on Thursday. 
The Union Gun Club, of Milton, Kans.,, will hold shoots 
Thursday of each week. All are welcome to shoot for targets at 
1 cent each. 
Dan Mumbrue, . of White Sulphur Springs, won the Bryan 
medal at the Helena, Mont., Club shoot last Sunday. Wind was 
very strong, and the shooting was done over five expert traps, 
and that made shooting harder than Sergeant system. If the old 
expert ' system was used, it will be news to many, as this style 
of shooting is iiow obsolete. It might, however, be a very good 
thing if this style was once more started up, and the use of both 
barrels allowed. 
At- Milwaukee, Wis., June 4, there was a match between the ■ 
North Side and the Parker gun clubs. 
Trapshpoting will be a feature at the Country Club, of Mil-

Budd with reverence. They call him "one of the fathers of the 
sport of trapshooting." 
Mr. John Reynolds, of Como, Wis., carried home prizes from 
the Elgin, shoot, and his friends rejoiced with him upon his 
success. 
Reports come from Sioux Falls, S. D., that the gun clubs are 
willing to hold a shoot there on July 4. If the resident shooters 
will but call to mind the failure they once made with their at- 
tempt to hold a shoot on July 4, they will think twice before again 
making such another attempt. It is the height of folly for any 
gun . club to even contemplate holding a shoot on the Fourth 
j..iere are too many other attractions on that day. All tourna- 
ments should be held on days when there are no other counter- 
attractions, and when the home shooters can get out to the shoot 
Few gun clubs have succeeded other thaa through the push 
and grit of one man. ' At Butte, Mont, the hard-working man 
is Secretary Smith. Of him it may be said that he practically 
made the sport in that town. He was last week presented by his 
admirers in the organization with a handsome shotgun. It was a 
complete surprise, and he evidently, from reports, felt deeply 
the manifestation of regard so kindly shown by the donors. 
Mr. James Drumgoole, of Anaconda, holds the State record, 
having broken 280 consecutive targets. He was lately presented

Breckenridge, the extreme western town of Minnesota, held 
their first shoot last Wednesday, at 25 targets. Frank Sykora was 
high with 23. Shoots will be held weekly during the summer. 
No wonder there are so many gun clubs in the Northwest, as 
there are so many good game shots. The Shelvin Gun Club has 
been organized at Bernidji, Minn., with seventeen members.: It 
is fitting that where there are so many guns and shooters that 
the guns should not rust for lack of use in the summer time. 
There was a tie at the St. Paul, Minn., Gun Club shoot. Wood 
beat Holt in the shoot-ofl: and won Class A medal. Wauschura 
won the Class B, with 20 out of 25. There were twenty-one pres- 
ent, including such old names as Gotzian, Kennedy, Novotny and 
French. , - 
To the zealous efforts of Dr. H. S. West and Messrs. Charles 
Kinney and R. L. Hibbs may be attributed the success of the ■ 
McMechen Gun Club, of West Virginia. These gentlemen are 
now organizing a trapshooters' league. We wish them success.

disks, 2%in. in diameter, thrown up by hand at a distance of 
15ft.

Notes. 
The New Berlin, O., Gun Club pulled off a very successful 
tournament on May 30. Thirty shooters took part. Haak landed 
high gun with 155 out of 165. Snow second, 153, and J. A. Smith 
and Raven tied for third on 152. Twenty men shot the entire 
programme. The most, interesting event of the. day was a five- 
:mfin team match, , 50 targets per man, for the tri-county cham- 
. pibnship arid a handsome cup, donated by the club. Four teams 
were entered. The Canton Gun Club team won with a score of 
- 217. Barberton team second with 208. Haak, of Canton, was 
hijgh individual score, 48. 
The regular medal shoot of the Hamilton, O., Gun Club was 
held on June 1, eighteen shooters taking part. Besides the medal 
event, several practice events were shot. . The medal was won 
by Jones, with 48. 
The merchandise shoot given by the Cleveland, O., Gun Club 
oh May 30 was a big success. Twenty-nine shooters took part 
and every one of them . shqt in all the ten events, at a total of 
]25 targets. Geo. Burns' work is especially deserving of men- 
tion, as he broke 123 out of 125., Tryon was second with 119, and 
Prechtel and Doolittle third with ,118 each. 
FoUo-w-ing are the scores made at the tournament of the New 
Moorefield, O., Gun Club. A strong wind was blowing through- 
out the shoot, and the scores suffered. Gross was high with 149 
out of 165. Poole second with 139, and Trimble third with 133 
out of 150. 
The Decoration Day shoot of the Advance Gun Club, of Dayton, 
O., was a success, although the stormy weather kept many 
niembers and other shooters with their families from attending. 
Tlie club served a substantial dinner free to all. A broad veranda 
along the shady side of the house gives a fine view of the firing 
line. One set of the members shoot on Thursday, and another 
on Saturday afternoon. The blackbird trap was used for the first 
time in this section, and gave satisfaction. 
Stormy weather on May 30 kept many members of the Walnut 
Hill Gun Club, Dayton, O., away from the Decoration Day 
shoot, and only four were present. 
Nineteen members took part in the shoot of the Welfare Gun 
Club, Dayton, O., on May 27, some of the cracks being present. 
Heikes was high gun with 162 out of 175. 
The ninth shoot in the medal series of the Greenville, O., 
Gun Club was held on May 29, with a good attendance of shoot- 
ers and spectators. Kirby and Eidson tied for the Class A 
medal, the former winning in the shoot-off. Hartzell and Hud- 
dle tied in Class B on 38, and the latter won the shoot-off. In a 
second 50 targets, Eidson broke 37. The Decoration Day shoot 
on May 30 , was quite a success. The scores were lower than 
usual in several cases owing to the high wind. McCaughey was 
high gun with 55 out of 65. 
The Springfield, O., Gun Club, held a pleasant little shoot on 
Decoration Day, which was enjoyed by all. Flenderson broke 90 
out of 100. Event 4, for the Hunter Arms Co.'s medal, had six 
entries, Poole and Henderson tying on 23. 
A heavy rain fell during most of the afternoon of June 2, and 
the attendance at the regular shoot of the Dayton, O., Gun Club 
was small, only six members being present. Rike was high gun 
with 154 out of 175. 
Garfield Gun Clob. 
Chicago, June 3.— The appended scores were made on our 
grounds to-day on the occasion of the seventh and ^ last trophy 
shoot of the first series. Thomas won Class A trophy on 21; 
Seymour Class B on 20, and Ostendorp Class C on 15. After the 
trophy shoot a number of team shoots were run off. The teams 
were formed by choosing sides. Thomas and C. Einfeldt were 
the captains, Thomas's team winning all the events. 
In the last race, Mr. George came in, and as the teams were 
even in men, his score was not counted on either side. It 
should have been divided and half given to each team. 
The day was a good one for target shooting, only for a rather 
strong head wind.
