Roanoke G. C. 
Roanoke, Va., Sept. 20.—The wind, which was 
blowing at a high rate of speed, took an active part in 
the week-end shoot of the club, held to-day, the result 
being that some low scores were made. Only a short 
time now remains before the official shooting season 
comes to a close, viz., on Oct. 25, on which date the 
annual turkey shoot of the season will be pulled off. 
Attention is called to the fact that the turkeys are already 
engaged, and it is hoped that all members of the club 
will be present on that occasion and win a turkey if 
possible. Preparations are being made to make this 
shoot as popular as ever, and the public is cordially in¬ 
vited to be present and witness the shooting. No ad¬ 
mission is charged to the grounds. 
The weekly trophies offered by the club were won 
by the following members: 
Scratch class No. 1, P. T. Jamison; No. 2, A. M. 
Shepherd. 
Class A No. 1, S. H. Holland; No. 2, W. C. Bring- 
man. 
Class B No 1, H. E. Dyer. 
Class C No. 1, R. T. I'ishburne; No. 2, A. S. Payne.

Baffklo Audubon Club. 
Buffalo, N. Y., Sept. 20. —Several of our regular 
shooters were absent to-day. Messrs. Covert and Rogers 
are in the North Woods after moose, while Messrs. 
Wright, Kelsey and Ebberts were at the Westy Hogan 
trapshooting tournament at Atlantic City. Suckow was 
high gun to-day on the regular program with 89 dead 
out of his 100. There was a tricky head wind blowing 
and the burnt powder was blown directly into the shoot¬ 
ers’ eyes. Shooting glasses assisted wonderfully to-day 
on that account. Scores:

West Philadelphia Rod and Gun Club. 
Phtl adei, mi a , Pa., Sept. 15. — The annual fall outing 
of the West Philadelphia Rod and Gun Club, Camp 88 , 
U. S., was held at the club farm on Saturday, Sept. 13. 
The members’ wives and friends participated in the 
■various sports, consisting of clay target shooting, fly- 
casting, bait-casting, quoits, standing" target shooMng,- 
and special events for the ladies. The"events were under 
the management of Mr. George Williams. It has been 
voted by the club that this was one of the most suc¬ 
cessful outings we have ever held. The winners of the 
events were as follows: 
Clay Target Event — Class shooting, 50 targets: Dr. 
M. Grow first; W. K. Harris, second. 
Second event. 50 targets, handicap: M. P. Mills, first; 
B. Robinson, second. 
Fly-Casting—H. Beaston, first; W. A. Dill, second. 
A special prize (a silver spoon), set aside for visitors, 
was won bv George Anderson. 
Long Distance Bait Casting—J. Prince, first; B. 
Brogan, second. 
Special event for Ladies (5 shots to eliminate figures) 
-Mrs. Dorp won first prize; Mrs. Prince, second; Mrs. 
Grow, third; Mrs. Williams, fourth; Mrs. Rowe, fifth; 
Mrs. Brogan, sixth; Mrs. Bryan, seventh; Mrs. Beaston, 
eighth. 
Quoit Contest—Miss Bryan won first prize; Mrs. 
Harris, second; Miss Harris, third; Mrs. Henzey, fourth; 
Mrs. Mills, fifth. 
The shooting contest for the ladies was enjoyed very 
much, and some of them displayed very much more skill 
than that shown at the last outing, and thus the result 
was quite a few ties, which were shot off miss-and-out, 
as follows: Miss Baird won first prize; Mrs. Dill, sec¬ 
ond; Mrs. Shaw, third; Miss Prince, fourth; Mrs. Rob¬ 
inson fifth; Miss Savage, sixth; Miss Bryan, seventh. 
After all events were finished, the members and 
friends enjoyed a light lunch, after which the prizes 
were distributed to the winners by Mr. George Williams 
with an appropriate speech for each. Darkness falling 
fast we hied to our abodes, after having one of the most 
enjoyable afternoons of the season. 
Sociedad de Cazadores de Habana 
Havana, Cuba, Aug. 10.—The twelfth annual trap¬ 
shooting competition for the historic championship cup 
of the club was pulled off to-day on the grounds of 
the club at Buena Vista. 
The field was limited in number, only twelve com¬ 
petitors taking part in the match, but gave promise of 
a good race, four of the shooters having held the cham¬ 
pionship in previous years. The result, however, was 
very disappointing. After the first string of 25 targets 
it was evident that the “probables” were few in num¬ 
bers. Senor Juan Federic Centellas, Chief Game Warden 
of Cuba, ex-champion of the club, and considered one 
of the finest shots on the island, went out with a 
miserable score of 71 out of 100. O’Connor, another ex¬ 
champion, arrived late on the grounds, did some tall 
hustling to take his place in squad No. 1, made four 
clean misses to start with, got cold feet and went away 
back and sat down. Dr. Thomas V. Coronado, twice 
ex-champion, says in exp anation of his score of 57 out 
of 100 , that he had ki.ied so many of his patients dur¬ 
ing the week he felt sorry for the poor blue-rocks and 
refused to pulverize them as was his wont. Dr. Serapio 
Rocamora sat down with 79 out of 100 to his credit, 
having probably murdered fewer of his patients than 
Dr. Coronado; and Dr. Carlos Alzugaray, president of 
the club, an extremely “probable” previous to the match, 
on y accounted for 65 out of 100. Senores Jose Angel 
Scott, our most youthful member, and Fe.ipe Martinez, 
last year’s champion, tied on 85 out of 100. In the shoot- 
off they again tied on 16 out of 20. A second shoot-off 
was therefore imperative, and the two again took up 
their positions in the lime-light. Each broke 13 straight, 
but at No. 14 Jose Angel took a chance on a broken 
target thrown by the Ideal-Leggett and scored a miss. 
(Our rules do not permit a second target if the com¬ 
petitor has fired.) Felipe very considerately allowed his 
14th also to go “Scott” free, likewise his 16th, but Jose 
Angel took no more chances and cleaned up 19 out of 20 
against Felipe’s 18 out of 20. Jose Angel Scott will 
therefore have the pleasure to exhibit the cup to a 
circle of admiring and envious friends until some date 
in August, 1914, when an enemy will probably come 
along like a thief in the night, and—Good Bye, Dolly 
Gray.” 
Complete scores are appended. Latch-string remains 
out, and visitors to Cuba will always be welcomed at 
the grounds of Buena Vista. The scores:

Club Cazadores del Cerro. 
The annual championship of the Club Cazadores del 
Cerro was held on Aug. 17, and won by Sefior Jose 
Angel Scott, with a score of 91 out of 100. Senor Felipe 
Martinez toilowed with 89 cut of 100, and Senor Luis 
Aguirre came third with 85 out of 100. 
There will be nothing doing now in trapshooting in 
Cuba until March, 1914, as we are all after the birds 
during the open hunting season, but we expect to make 
things hum next year at the traps, as it is projected to 
amalgamate the two local clubs, which with their ag¬ 
gregate of over 150 members ought to be able to wake 
up things. 
Visitors from the United States interested in the 
sport are cordially invited to look us up, and the “g ad 
hand” will always he extended to brother trapshooters.

National Trapshooting Championship of Cuba. 
The veteran trapshooter Senor Don Juan Federico 
Centellas, after an absence of some six years from the 
traps, turned up on Aug. 24 and walked off with the 
1913 championship, with a score of 83 out of 100. 
The morning was dull and cloudy, with fitful gusts 
of wind. In the first string of 25 Senor Centellas 
e'eaned up 24, followed closely by three 23s and two 
22 s, but a baby cyclone sprung up and took charge of 
the aerodiscs, making good scores impossible. 
The crowd, especially the ladies, were enthusiastic 
over the victory of Don Juan Federico, whose eye at 
sixty-three years of age does not seem to be much 
dimmed. May his shadow never grow less!
