For the past six weeks we have been doomed to dis¬ 
appointment at every Saturday shoot because of stormy 
weather. At first we grinned, because we have a new 
extension, which allows of 20yd. pistol and 25yd. rifle 
practice indoors; but the storms being for the most 
thunder and lightning combinations of unusual propor¬ 
tions, the members have become a little weary of the 
natural competition with noise which comes from smoke¬ 
less powder. Argus tried to drown it out one night by 
using his- big .45 and full charge of black powder, (40- 
grain) cartridges inside. It was a question which was 
the most terrifying, the echo of the thunder from the 
nearby ledge or the ear-splitting racket of the “cannon.” 
For the Fourth we planned a fitting celebration, with 
matches at all ranges, and for the novelty, a trapshoot. 
The inevitable storm came, however, yet we managed 
to work in some scores between drops, and a few hardy 
ones stood in the open and broke some clays. 
Not all the scores shot were obtainable, but the follow¬ 
ing were secured by hard work on the part of the shoot¬ 
ers and secretary:

*Medal entry. 
We have found a great deal of amusement shooting 
the , 22 cal. rifles, such as used for fine target work at 
25yds., indoors, on the reduced Standard American target, 
with 2in. black, on the 50yd. revolver range, and believe 
it one of the most difficult combinations on which to 
make good scones. Our Mr. Luther holds the club record 
with a 92 for ten consecutive shots.
