Chicago Gan Club. 
Chicago, Til.. Oct. 2.—Twenty-five members of the 
Hamilton Club, of Chicago, were guests of the Chicago 
Gun Club to-dav, most of them never having shot at the 
traps before. The object of this invitation shoot was to 
arouse interest in trapshooting among the members of 
the Hamilton Club, and from the enthusiasm shown 
by most of them, it was very successful, although the 
strong wind made conditions rather hard for beginners. 
After several events u’ere shot a team shoot was pro¬ 
posed, and the losing team to buy the suppers. Doc 
May and M. P. Northcott were chosen as captains, and 
then each took turns in chosing their men. A glance at 
the team totals will show how evenly they were matched, 
the winners having a margin of only two targets. All 
enjoyed the afternoon; and promised to be with us again 
in the near future.

Wilmington, Del., Oct. 9.—The following list rep¬ 
resents amateur and professional shooters who have this 
year won Du Pont solid gold long-run trophies. Quite

Nemours (Ladies) G. C. 
Wilmington, Del., Oct. 9.—In spite of a misty 
afternoon and a hazy light, fourteen women were present 
at the shoot yesterday afternoon. In the regular event 
Miss Hammond was high, scoring 19. In the handicap 
event for the Major Ramsay weekly trophy, Miss Gen- 
tieu led by breaking 16 straightaway targets. This with 
her handicap of 14. made her a perfect score. She was 
privileged to wear the medal until the next regular shoot 
and was also advanced from the B to the A Class. 
Scores (25 targets) with handicaps, were as follows:

There were eleven shooters at the grounds on Oct. 
8, the occasion being the contest for the Rum-Dum 
trophy, and incidentally as much more shooting as day¬ 
light permitted. The trophy shoot is a handicap affair, 
at 25 targets, and the finish found four men tied on per¬ 
fect scores, including their handicaps. These four lined 
up for the shoot-off. with the result that three of them 
were still tied, Willie dropping out. After several flip¬ 
pings of a coin, SchnoMer was declared the winner. He 
is doing very creditable work. This is his third time at 
the traps, and he shot at angling targets for the first 
time to-day. Berkmvcr is another of the new ones who 
is going to make good in the near future. Although an 
old member of the club, he has never until three or 
four weeks ago, taken an activei interest in the sport, 
and is breaking 19 out of 25v which is not bad. Chief 
Hit ’Em All. otherwise R. J. Dibowski, will soon war¬ 
rant his tribal appellation if he continues to improve. 
He is a new member and a new one at the traps, and 
is shooting better than 80 per cent, already. Gambel! 
put it over the boys in his selection of teams to-day, and 
was on the winning side in both matches. He shot a 
96 per cent, gait himself, reverting to his old-time form; 
but the losers say he’ll not catch them again. Another 
Rum-Dum will be shot for on Oct. 22.

This is for the shooters who want a real shoot, with 
chances to win a big wad, and the Northern Kentucky 
(inn Club, of Dayton, Ky. (sometimes known as South 
Cincinnati) is responsible. That is to say, Harry K. 
Irwin, the live wire of the club, has figured out a pro¬ 
gram that ought to bring together the biggest bunch ot 
shooters seen in this locality for many years. There will 
he 150 targets, shot in two races, one at 100 and one at 
50 targets, with total entrance of $15. The 100-target race 
will be shot in five 20-target events; $10 of the entrance 
money will apply to this race. Two cents per target will 
he deducted, leaving' $8, or $1.60 per man in each event, 
to be divided 40, 30, 20 and 10 per cent. Of the two cents 
deducted, one cent per target will be used for a high 
average fund, to he divided 60 and 40 per cent. If there 
should be two men tied on high average, they will shoot 
off at 20 targets, the winner taking first one and the 
loser second money. If three or more should tie, they 
will shoot off, the winner taking first money, and the 
losers dividing second money. The idea is that first 
money must be a one-man win. The managers are figur¬ 
ing on a basis of 120 entries'; this would give $192 in each 
event, with first money $76-80. The high average purse 
would be $1201, and first money $72. If a shooter is in 
trim he can take down a nice piece of money for his 
$10. In the 50-target event, handicaps 16 to 20yds., based 
on the scores made in the 100-target race, will be used. 
If a shooter has failed to shoot his gait in the first race, 
his advantage here should enable him to make shoot. At 
least he has a chance. Of the $15 entrance, $5 applies to 
this race, one cent per target is deducted, leading $4.50 
per man for the purse, which is divided 40, 30, 20 and 
10 per cent. With 120 entries the purse will be $540, 
divided three moneys for each $50 or fraction thereof. 
This is a little the best program that has been offered to 
the shooters for a long time, and it is up to them to see 
that the attendance is a big one. If the number does not 
exceed the figures given, there is a chance for high man 
getting; a sum not much smaller than that guaranteed 
the winner of the Grand American. Don’t forget the 
date, but come and have a try. 
There was a light attendance at the weekly shoot 
on Oct. 12, only eight members facing the traps. The 
conditions were hard, a high wind making the targets 
very erratic in their flight, and keeping scores lower than 
usual. Hammerschmidt did a little the best work of the 
afternoon, breaking close to 90 per cent, of the 95 targets 
shot at. with his 20-gauge. Schreck was second with 
over S8 per cent, out of 90 targets, and Shropshire, who 
came over late, broke 44 in his last 50. and a total of 83 
out of 100. At doubles Hammerschmidt broke 13 out ot 
12 pairs, using his little gun. The first contest for the 
President’s trophv will be shot at Oct. 25. This event 
will he at 100 targ'ets, distance handicap.
