At Lilly Lake. 
Lilly Lake, 111., Oet. 23. — There are matiy shootei's alorig the 
kes that are connected by the ToX Rivet; VVhefe you find 
inters there you generally find trapshooters; So it came in the 
■tUral order of things that, with the opening of the fall duck 
ooting that a tournament and a game dinner should be held; 
lly Lake was the place selected, and John Boulett was the host, 
le dinner was a great success, and those present enjoyed the 
ck and “fixings” immensely. 
3nly part of the shooters reported before dinner, and after din- 
r most of those who made away each with a whole duck, could 
t shoot well. 
The regular- programme whs not followed by the nlanagemeriti 
d fnost of the events wete lO targets. There wete some everlts 
en only to green shooters, and these proved popular. 
Billings was the only man to shoot in all the events; he made 129 
It of 145. Mr. Stodfield made a good score for the number of 
ents, getting .63 out of 60 shots. 
The Graham that you see as present is a brother of J. R and 
d;, and the Dunnell is a cousin of Bert and Harry Dunnell, the

Chicago, Oct. 28.— The appenc 
grounds to-day on the occasion of the seventh and last trophy 
shoot of the fourth series. 
In the club trophy event. Dr. Meek and George tied in Class 
A on 22, Stone won in Class B on 21, and John Wolff won in Class 
C on 11. 
In the Dupont cup event. Dr. Reynolds won Class A on 20 
straight; Stone won Class B on 17, Mrs. Wolff won Class C on 9. 
In the Hunter Arms Co. event, 10 singles and 5 pairs, John 
Wolff and George tied in Class A on 18, Stone won Class B on 
15. No Class C shooter in contest. 
The day was not a good one for target shooting, as a Lake 
breeze from the rear chilled the shooters, and caused the targets 
to beat down very quickly, and as a consequence few good scores 
were made. This closes the season on our grounds.

The Columbus Gun Club’s new' grodnds are located at the end 
of the Arlington car line,' about twenty minutes’ ride from the 
city, and comprise ten acres, With a frontage of 450 feet arid a 
depth of 968 feet. , The surroundings are very attractive. The 
club house is a Iwo-story structure, of old English architecture, 
a large covered porch, and grand stand above being the prom- 
inent external features, From the latter a perfect view of all 
contests may be' had. On the ground floor are ' the office, gun 
and locker room, lavatory, closets, etc., and a large assembly 
room. The living rooms of the superintendent and the club 
dining room are on the second floor. Automobile and carriage 
sheds have also been built on the grounds. The trap pits, three in 
number, are built of concrete, and are said to be the most perfect 
in the country. ,The targets are 'thrown against a clear sky back- 
ground, a' fact which shooters will appreciate. The new club 
house and grounds were dedicated in a proper manner .on Oct. 26- 
27. On Oct. 21, at the regular shoot of the club fifteen members; 
took part in a programme consisting of nine events at 10, orie' at 
15 and two at 25 targets. Togo was high man with 121 out of 145., 
H. E. Smith 115 out of 155. Wolf 77 out of 105. Bassell 73 out of 
100. Williams 67 out of 95. The others shot at 60 targets or less, 
Capt. Tom . Marshall was the guest of Mr. Rolla O. Heikes, of 
Dayton, for a day or tWo, en route to the tournament at Columbus, 
He was to have visited the Rohrer’s Island Gun Club on Oct. 25, 
but the rain prevented. ’Mr. Marshall spoke favorably of the sport 
this season, and seemed sanguine of even more improvement next 
year, as he thinks indications point to an increased interest in all 
parts of the country. He also had words of praise for the efforts 
made by the Welfare Gun Club (N. C. R.)_, to get tho next G. A. 
H. for this place, and stated that it would undoubtedly prove 
even larger than the one held at Indianapbjis this year. 
Frank H. Snow, of Parma,- a well-known'expert trapshooter of 
Ohio, committed suicide on Oct. 23, by shooting himself, using 
the same gun with which he had won many trophies. "The dis- 
patch states that in doing this he carried into effect his creed that 
“life -is given to man' and he may take .it when he chooses.” The
