S 'e, Henry Stopple, Frank Taylor, G. E. Bayley, Homer 
. Parker, Fay Stidman, Roy Marsh, Chas. Castle and 
Win. Conklin, of Lansing, Mich., on Thursday, last 
week, went to Laingsborg, Mich., and were there de¬ 
feated in a team race. Edward Sweet, of Laingsburg, 
who scored 24, was high for the day. It is probable 
that a shoot for the cup will be held in Lansing during 
the latter part of August. 
Columbus, O., shooters won honors at the shoot at 
Circleville, Friday last. L. W. Chamberlain was high 
with 1S3 and Win. Fisher was second, 181. 
F. C. Fessenden won the first prize at the third shoot 
held by the Sharon Gun Club. 
The Youngstown, O., Gun Club held a shoot Wednes¬ 
day, with many present from out of town. Billy Osborn 
was third high amateur. 
“Pop” Heikes is popping the targets this year better 
than he ever did. Very seldom is he beaten for high 
average. 
Lea, Wis., Gun Club is doing some shooting, ano 
some of the more bold and enthusiastic members arc 
thinking of shooting team matches with nearbv teams. 
Doings in the tournament line at Colfax, Ill., at 150 
targets: Rupert 139, Arnold 132, Crothers 128, Park 128,

Club resulted, viz.: P. Caster shot at 50, made 45; c. 
Trefs 60, 32; S. Worthing 25, 15; A. Anderson 50, 20; 
Fred Daily 35, 18; R. Dunlap 25, 7; Omer Caster 10, 2. 
The Parker Gun Club at Milwaukee, did not hold a 
shoot last Sunday, as so many of their members were 
at the Menominee, Mich., shoot. 
Peshtigo, Mich., Gun Club contemplates holding a 
tournament during the fall. A large turnout from Me¬ 
nominee and Coleman and other towns is expected. 
Dates will be sent in later. 
Last week. Sunday, the North Side Gun Club, Mil¬ 
waukee, held the trophy shoot, and G. Kloman won. 
E. Kilohn and A. Asterman were tied on second. 
The Swansea Gun Club, Belleville, Ill., has a date 
to shoot with the Tannhauser Club, of St. Louis. 
The Missoula, Mont., Gun Club is now getting their 
guns ready for the fall game shooting season. 
Columbus, 0., Gun Club. 
Columeus, O., July 31.—A great many of the Columbus 
Gun Club boys are away on summer vacations, and the 
Saturday crowd was not as large as usual. George 
Buchanan was high in the Peters Cartridge Co. trophy 
shoot, with 44 out of 50, and high in the Hunter Arms 
Co. trophy shoot with 41 out of 50, which consisted of 
30 singles and 10 pairs. 
The new rifle and pistol ranges were completed on 
Aug. 3, and are now ready for the long-range rifle shoot¬ 
ers and the pistol men. The police officers of Columbus 
will begin a series of practice shoots at the ranges. The 
efficiency attained by the officers in many of our large 
cities has been due to range practice out in the open. 
No finer shooting facilities than the Columbus Gun Club 
affords in this line can be found, and the department 
here is to be congratulated on having the use of such 
an up-to-date place.

W. V. Baker has gone to Oregon. Look out for the 
big game dinner on his return. 
The turtle dinner and the fish, frog and spring chicken 
dinner have been of great interest to the boys. They 
say it’s just like camping out to be out on the big porch.

Boston Gun Club. 
V ellingtoNj Mass.—The fact that J. Mowell Hawkins 
and J. S. Fanning were to be at Wellington to-day proved 
to be sufficient attraction for one of the largest after¬ 
noon crowds of the season, some thirty-four shooters in 
all shooting through the programme of eight events. 
While the entire attendance was bent on enjoying to the 
fullest the beautiful weather conditions, the shooting 
itself was the real feature, and was even higher than 
the usual standard, which for this season has been higher 
than at any time in the club’s history. 
The special prize put up by the club for this special 
shoot proved to be most interesting and novel, and cer¬ 
tainly was a success from beginning to end. 
Roy, with almost 97 per cent., easily acquired high 
average, a bad habit of his, to be sure, though a score 
of this kind deserves its reward, even if the usual high 
.average of 94 per cent, was still in evidence. 
Freeman and Cook tied for the 85 per cent, prize, 
Freeman proving the best man when calling the turn 
on the coin, winning in straight heats. 
Powdrell’s ambition as a prize winner was gratified, 
his 90 breaks coming the nearest to the 75 per cent, ot 
the programme.events. 
The exhibition given by both Hawkins and Fanning, 
while not quite as high as the home aggregation, was 
appreciated by all. and proved, without a doubt, that 
they were there with the goods when needed. Scores ot 
events follow:

Denver Trap. 
Berkeley as a shooting ground was opened Sunday 
'morning, July 29, and the initial shoot of the Denver 
Gun Club at their new traps proved a success in every 
way. Blue skies and a crossing Lake breeze, lured many 
spectators to the scene of bombardment. Several of the 
shooters insisted their score was lowered because the 
pretty women, sitting in picturesque groups under the 
shade trees on the hillside, were such an attraction they 
could not resist “looking backward” when their gaze 
should have been concentrated on the bluerocks they 
let fall unbroken in the lake. The traps worked well, 
considering it was the first time they had been used. 
Beyond right-angle targets—which were in the majority— 
there was nothing to complain of. Waters and Shaw 
had the distinction of making the only straight of 25. 
In the first 100 targets shot at Shaw was high gun with 
89. Waters was high on the second with 93. 
Denver sportsmen are taking keen interest in the In¬ 
terstate Association’s first Western handicap, Aug. 20. 
A large crowd is expected, and everything will be done 
to make it the most successful and most talked-of shoot 
ever held in this country. Western liberality has been 
displayed in the $3,000 added money, and all the shooters 
have a good chance to win either money or a trophy. A 
contestant can shoot in all regular events of the tourna¬ 
ment, and should he prove to be out of form, and not 
shoot up to expectations, his three days’ shoot will cost 
him the price of targets only. A contestant should 
certainly be willing to pay for the targets he shoots at 
when his average falls below the point which brings 
reward for good performance. 
Denver is well equipped to handle a large crowd. The 
hotel accommodations are good, and extensive, and the 
entire city will be turned over to the visiting shooters and 
their friends. The scores;

Ossining Gun Club. 
Ossining, N. Y., Aug. 4. —A few of the members hap¬ 
pened along for some practice to-day. Wynant, Willi 
and Brewerton, all shooting new guns, shot well at 
fast targets, Wynant negotiating the only “straight” 
made during the afternoon. Arrangements are being 
made to feed one hundred and fifty at the clambake on 
the 22d. Good shooters are generally good feeders, and 
big scores are expected on clams as well as targets:

Fixtures. 
Aug. 26-Sept. 2.—Boston, New York, Springfield, Chicago,

Association championship. 
Aug. 27-Sept. 6.—Sea Girt, N. J.—National Rifle Asso¬ 
ciation tournament. Lieut. Albert S. Jones, Sec’y. 
Providence, R. I., Revolver Club. 
The principal excitement at the Saturday afternoon 
shoot was the raising of this year’s 50yd. revolver record 
to 93 by Air. Parkhurst, whose 10-shot group was a re¬ 
markably pretty one, six shots being well within the 
3in. “10” ring. 
A limited amount of Krag practice was indulged in at 
200yds., and also in the gallery with reduced load, and 
the new day two of the enthusiasts journeyed down to 
Portsmouth and laid out the 200, 300 and 500 yard range, 
which will be used Labor Day, Sept. 3, for the National 
Rifle Association medal match and qualification scores 
in the National Marksman’s Reserve. 
Shooting is not very brisk with us at this time of 
the year, many of the regulars being away on vacations 
or business. 
Another ladies’ shoot was held Tuesday evening, and 
some very good work was done, two of the shooters 
allowing their scores to go on record.
