as last year, when the entire profits of the shoot were 
given to the contestants, allowing the very poorest shot 
to take part in the entire programme without losing 
a cent of his entrance. There will be plenty of oppor¬ 
tunities for the good shot to make money, and all con¬ 
testants will stand at 16yds. The programme will be 
ready on Sept. 1, and will be mailed to any one who will 
sent their address to Arthur Gambell, Station P, St.

Hotel cup, besides their sweepstake conditions. It is 
open to amateurs of Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois

The Interstate Association’s first Western Handicap 
was a magnificent event. It sustained the most sanguine 
estimates of the Denver, Colo., Trap Club, under whose 
auspices it was held The shooters rallied to it from 
far and near. The first day’s programme consisted of ten 
20-target events, a total of 200 targets, of which the re¬ 
liable W. R. Crosby scored 199. H. C. Hirschy, W. H. 
Heer and C. G. Spencer 195. The high amateurs for the 
day were S. A. Huntley and Robert Conley, 195. On 
the second day, the squad whose members were Messrs. 
Crosby, Heer, Hirschy and Spencer, from the 21yd. mark 
in the Preliminary, and 16yds. in the sweepstakes, scored 
395 out of the 400, breaking the last 295 straight, all of 
which goes to show that 16yds. is too near the traps as a 
standard mark for competition. When shooters can break 
all the targets from 21vds., some one should have suf¬ 
ficient backbone to readjust the mark. In the Pre¬ 
liminary Handicap, Messrs. Crosby, Spencer, Taylor and 
Shemwell scored 99. Messrs. Heer, Huff, Hubby and 
Rogers were 98. Crosby won the Western Handicap after 
shooting off a formidable tie. He scored 97 from 21yds. 
In the tie with him were R. Thompson, of Missouri, and 
George G. Pickett, of Denver, the scores in the tie being: 
Crosby 18, Pickett 17, Thompson 16. 
Bernard Waters. 
At a recent examination held in the public schools 
the sentence, “The horse and cow was in the stable,” 
was given in language, to be corrected, the reason to be 
given for the correction. 
On one little fellow’s paper the corrected sentence 
read: 
“The cow and horse was in the stable. (Reason) 
Ladies first—always.”
