Mr. Woolfolk Henderson, of Lexington, 
WON THE GOLD MEDAL 
at Olympian Springs, Ky., July 4, using 
‘INFALLIBLE 1 ’ SMOKELESS 
LAFLIN & . RAND POWDER CO., 170 Broadway, New York. 
E. II. Starr won the $5 in gold donated by Frank 
Anthony for high average at the Richmond, Va., shoot 
held last week. 
A “Kremple” shoot was the programme at the North 
Side Gun Club, Milwaukee, Wis., for the iast holiday 
shoot. This means that each shooter draws a prize. 
G. Irnmekus was the high man. He broke 43 out oi 
50. The best part of this meet was the presence of the 
families of the participants, and all were happy in the 
good German way. 
A ladies’ gun club has been organized at Port Huron, 
Mich. It will be known as the North End Bright Lights, 
and will hold weekly shoots at the 'Lighthouse grounds. 
Officers have been elected, and the first shoot held, 
scores: Mrs. Kimball 3 out of 10; Mrs. Edward Reynolds 
3, Mrs. William Pilky 2, Miss Kibbetts 4. Miss Kibbetts 
won a gold ring, Mrs. Reynolds a hat pin, Mrs. Kimball 
a parasol and Mrs. Pilky a pair of shoes. 
Horace Bonsor, champion shot of Cincinnati, O., Gun 
Club, won high average lately with 142 out of 150. 
H. J. Borden was high professional at the tournament 
at Spring Hill, Tenn., with 140 out of 150. 
The Ames, la.. Gun Club held a shoot for practice last 
Thursday. The secretary reports a large attendance 
and good scores. 
The gun club at Vncennes, Ind., reports that regular 
shoots are held, but that so long as their ball team is 
in the lead, ball is the talk of the town. 
There is now a rivalry between St. Paul and Minne¬ 
apolis in the shooting line. Each team has won once, 
and the rubber will come at the next meet. O’Brien 
was high man over all, with 96 out of 100; Parker, 
Seymour and Wilkie, 91. 
The newly organized Rock Island Gun Club is now 
on the progressive order. About 400 persons witnessed 
the contest here on July 12. In the prize shoot, Mr. 
Kranor won out, with W. Lang a close second. A. D. 
Sperry was in good form, and at the 21yds. line he made 
23, which was a good showing. 
The Fourth of July is not celebrated in the south same 
as the north, yet it being a holiday, is better suited and 
much better attended than those held in the north. 
This year the Eswell Gun Club, of Spring Hill, Tenn., 
held a shoot that was a good one. Shooters were present 
from Nashville, Columbia, Franklin and other towns. 
A feature of the shoot was the team race, which was 
won by the Cumberland team, with a small majority 
over Eswell. IT. J. Borden was high professional, and 
R. B. Campbell high amateur, with 140 out of 150. 
Pequea Gun Club. 
Lancaster, Pa.—The opening shoot of the Tri-County 
League, was held on July 12, on the grounds of the 
Pequea Gun Club, Lancaster, Pa., and proved that 
matches of this kind are needed to instil the interest 
of trapshooting. A better day could not be expected; 
no wind to bother the flight of the targets; but, strange 
to say, the targets thrown from No. 2 trap seemed to 
be a puzzler, as the scores will show. No one was able 
to reach 90 per cent, at this trap; but this was made up 
on No. 2 set of traps, and very good scores were made. 
The office was in care of our worthy president, Dr. A. 
E. Leantan, ably assisted by Bernard Elairson. They 
performed their duty very satisfactorily. At the end of 
the last event a contestant could step up and get his 
money. 
The trade was well represented by Messrs. J. Mowell 
Hawkins, Luther Squier, Neaf Apgar, Sim Glover and 
Lloyd Lewis Le Noir. 
The Lebanon boys, headed by Sammy Trafford, were 
first to arrive on the grounds. Looking them over, 
Sam said he wanted to turn his colts in pasture in 
plenty of time; but they could not stand the pace set by 
the other two teams, and had to go back to the mines 
with third place packed in their cases. 
Chester county won the first match, breaking 436 out 
of 500; Lancaster county second, 406; Lebanon third, 398. 
Each county shot fifteen men, ten high scores to count; 
50 targets per man. 
In the programme, J. M. Hawkins was high gun, and 
won the general average. Nat Ressler was high ama¬ 
teur, but was pressed hard by Jebb, Andrews and 
Bennett. 
Everything worked like clock-work, as there were no 
hold-ups or arguments of any kind. Plenty of time was 
taken for a splendid dinner prepared by Lord Hanser, 
and all felt very well pleased with the day’s outing, 
especially Capt. E. M. Ludwick, when the results of 
the team scores showed his team a winner. But Capt. 
Trafford, of Lebanon, claims his bunch will make some 
noise on Aug. 7, at the next meet at Atglen, Chester 
county. The programme was finished early, leaving a 
margin in time to rehearse some past memories and 
arranging squads for the Eastern Handicap at Philadel¬ 
phia. The programme totaled 200 targets. Scores:
