handicaps may be changed by the committee at any time. 
The Columbus, O., Gun Club held a turkey shoot on Nov. 27. 
There was a big crowd present, and twenty-four shooters took 
part in one or more of the events. The programme called for a 
total of 200 targets, with turkeys as prizes for the successful ones. 
The weather man handed out about as poor a brand of his stock 
as he had, and when it was raining it looked so threatening that 
the boys were kept busy wondering if there was anything worse 
coming. The sport began at 9:30, and was kept up until 1 
o clock, when a recess was taken and a turkey dinner served. 
Not one of the shooters missed this event, and ’ they all made 
clean scores. After dinner Nichols brought out his rifle, and a 
match for a turkey was shot. The entries were: Rhoads, Gross, 
•Shattuck, Nichols, Fink, Fosh, Darby, Holman, Lacey and 
Fisinger. Fink and Shattuck tied, and Fink won the shoot'-off. 
Curkeys were won by Rhoads, Fisher, Cumberland, Gross,' J. H. 
Smith, Posh, Jennings, Bassell, G. M. Smith, Darby, . Lacey, 
Hinkle and Fink. Eleven men shot through the programme. 
R. S. Rhoads headed the list, as usual, scoring 177, Lou Fisher

Abner Rhoades, Dayton, is back from a hunt in upper Michi- 
gan. He was gone about three weeks, and killed a big buck. 
Sheriff Frank Smith, Dr. Hostetter and party, of Greenville, 
have returned from a month’s hunt in Maine, where they killed 
five deer. Sheriff Smith getting two of them. 
Adolph Sander and William Senders, of Dayton, will spend this 
month hunting quail about ten miles from Huntsville, Ala., where 
they will be the guests of Lou Miller, who formerly lived on a 
farm on the Xenia pike, east of Dayton. Mr. Miller invited them 
to spend the month with him and enjoy all the quail shooting they 
Wanted on “the best quail grounds in the world. Sander will have 
ins prize-wdnning pointer, Topsy S., and Senders will have an 
imported German dog. 
j' Harry Georg^e '.vere hunting near Lancaster, 
•and relate a curious incident. George was new at hunting and 
was therefore allowed to carry the game, which Pierce should. 
After some time spent in hunting without getting any birds, 
'George vaulted over a fence, and landed in the midst of a bevy, 
killing four of them. This was the only game killed on the day. 
Here’s another yarn most as good. Engineer Collins, of the 
Big Four, states that on his trip when between Tiffin and Watson 
he ran into a bevy of quail on the wing. The birds struck the 
headlight with sufficient force to break the glass, and when re- 
pairs were made, two dead quail were found within the head- 
light. 
Representative Earle Stewart, of Clark county, proposes to 
introduce a bill in the next Legislature providing that no quail 
shall be killed for a period of three years. He believes that the 
bill will receive a large support, and feels that this is the only 
way to- prevent the extermination of quail in the State. Hunters 
in different parts of the State report quail unusually scarce this 
season, and such a bill would probably receive the support of very 
many sportsmen. 
The Cleveland, O., Gun Club held a shoot on Thanksgiving Day 
fitteen members being present. The day was cold, snowy and 
blustery, not at all ideal for trapshooting. The programme called 
for ten 15-tai'get events, and eleven men went through in spite 
of the weather. Geo. Burns and Sheldon tied for high gun on 
133, J, S. 125, Doolittle 121, Allyn 120, Hogen 119, Ledgftl 11(5 
Hopkins 111, Tamblyn 109, Kramer 106, Rice 104. The club will 
hold -a tournament on New Year’s Day. 
Baltimore Shooting Association. 
The Baltimore, Md., Shooting Association gave its first Thanks- 
giving shoot at the club grounds on Thursday. The prizes were 
turkeys. 
A very high wind made shooting difficult, and in the events 
many of the targets were not broken until they “hit” the ground

high honors and fowls. He secured two fine gobblers, and 
there were no other experts who won more than a single bird.

A Social Tram.^. 
Sheepshead Bay Gon Club. 
Sheepshead B.\y, L. I., Nov. 30. — A good crowd filling the 
club house to the limit was present to enjoy the competition 
either as contestants or spectators. It was a good shoot. There 
was a plenty of wind to help the targets in the way of ac- 
celerated and erratic flights. Mr. Every Wingate, son of Mr. 
Chas Wingate, of Dean Richmond Cup fame, was present and 
shot along. 
Messrs. J. A. R. Elliott and LI. S. Welles represented the 
trade.

, Ridge, L. I., Nov. 30.— The Thanksgiving Day shoot of 
Athletic Club was well attended, notwithstanding 
that the. weather was cold and that a raw, blustering wind, almost 
a gale at times, prevailed throughout the day. Fourteen events 
were contested, and. about 2-,600 targets were thrown. The main 
contest was for the holida.y- cup., and eighteen shooters partici- 
pated. The victor was Mr. A. E, Hendrickson, who scored 22, 
his four handicap allowance being of winning value. Mr. A. G. 
Southworth, a scratch man, scored 20, and with him three others, 
Messrs-. H. B. Vanderveer, W. C. Damron and C. E. T. Foster 
tied for second. 
Mr. O. C. Grinnell, Jr., was first in the Stake trophy contest 
with a score of 22.

pleasing rate, seventy-nine being on the list at present. The first

CssiDing Gun Glut. 
■ ^'■> Rov. 25. — At the annual rnefeliilg of the Ossiii- 
ing Gun Club, at the Weskora Hotel, 22d inst., the following of- 
!?®ers were elected for 1906: Franklin Braridreth, Presiderit; Edw. 
u J ^*®®‘Pi'®sident; Gaylord B. aubbell. Secretary; Amos 
Bedell, treasurer; Chas. G. Blandford, Financial Secretary and 
I. Hyland, Compiler of Scores and Game Warden. 
Ihere was a slim attendance at the regular bi-monthly shoot 
ot the Ossining Gun Club to-dav. Those who came out had a 
good time, and the weather conditions were all that Could be de- 
siied. Mr. Plarry Persons Taber, the well-known author, was 
with us as a spectator and as he wouldn’t shoot, he had to 
score, which he did willingly. 
Events 4 and 6 were from 20yds., use of both barrels allowed, 
^vents 7 8 were sniping” events, shooters walking diagonally 
from the field toward the traps, gun below elbow; one barrel! 
targets thrown by puller any time, between 25 and 16yds. This 
was heaps of fun. Messrs. Mead and Hyland were shootirig 
strange guns.

jSov. 31.— There was plenty of sport at the Thariksgivirig- Day 
poultry shoot of the Ossiriiflg Gun Club. The shootirig did riot 
start till 3 P.M., and as it was quite dark at 6 , things had to be 
hustled considerably.^ Mr. B. S. White, who hails all the way from 
West ya., but who is at present situated in New York city, came 
Up to look on, and was beguiled into trying one event, in which 
he did well with a strange gun. We will be glad to see him up 
this way at any time. 
We used a sort of sliding distance handicap to-day. The main 
object was to give every one a chance at a fowl, and if the handi- 
caps proved a little severe for some, they did not bother Ray 
ITendncks, who got two ducks and two turkeys to lug home. 
There was a strong, cutting wind blowing across the traps 
which ca-jsed the bunches of “goose eggs” recorded. J. T. Hyland 
got a 19 out of 20, which was the nearest to a straight made in the 
20-target events, though Hendricks and Clark both knocked out a 
straight in the preliminary ( 10 ) target events, 
thrown at one cent each, and the poultr 
no profits accrued to the club.
