Little Falls Gun Club. 
Little Falls, N. J., Dec. 13,—The ideal conditions 
Saturday afternoon drew a large crowd to the shoot of 
the Little Falls Gun 'Club at Little Falls, iN. J., and it 
was dark before the last gun was packed up. 
The members were pleased to have two professionals 
present, Tom Davis and H. H. Stevens. Davis broke 
83 per cent, and Stevens 96 per cent. 
The principal event was the 50-bird sliding handicap 
match, with six prizes to be awarded. This was won 
by Thomas Howard, with 46 kills, and the finish was 
exciting, as Howard had to go straight on the last 27 
to beat out H. S. Sindle, who finished second with 45; 
J. H. Francisco was third with 43; C. Canizzaro fourth 
with 40; S. G. Francisco fifth with 40, and Cleve Speer 
sixth with 39. 
The next regular shoot will be held Saturday, Dec. 
27, at 1:30, but there will be some who wish to shoot 
Christmas afternoon, so the club will be open to accom¬ 
modate them.

Jersey City Gun Club. 
Jersey City, N. J., Dec. 13.—This was another great 
day for trap shooting, but the crowd was smaller than 
it should have been, considering the unusual weather 
for December. However, the scores were not half as 
good as the weather, and Dr. Ittner and Dixon tied for 
high honors with 80 per cent. The leg on the Dupont 
Trophy was won by Everett with a full score, count¬ 
ing handicap. The scores follow, in strings of 25:

New York Athletic Club. 
Pelham Manor, Dec. 13.—There were plenty of ties in 
the weekly shoot of the New York Athletic Club at 
Travers Island yesterday. The fun started in the open¬

returned cards of 22 out of a possible 25 birds for the 
Monthly Cup. In the shoot-off that followed the former 
was a winner by 25 to 24. Mr. Ogden was both the 
high scratch and the high handicap man yesterday. He, 
however, could not win both events, so the high handi¬ 
cap prize went to T. Lenane, Jr. The scores:

Larchmont Yacht Club. 
Larchmont, N. Y., Dec. 13.—Full scores were so fre¬ 
quent at the Larchmont Yacht Club to-day that in every 
event at twenty-five or fifty clay birds shoot-offs were 
necessary to decide the winner. In several cases it took 
two extra sessions at the traps to break a tie, and on 
one occasion six of the fifteen contestants were engaged 
in the shoot-off. 
Three men were double winners during the afternoon, 
Thomas Lenane, Jr., earning a leg each on the December 
and handicap cups, A. L. Burns leading in two scratch 
events, while George J. Corbett took home the take home 
trophy and the club cup as well. In the latter event 
Mr. Corbett on the shoot-off made the only perfect score 
of the day.

Camden Shooting Association. 
In probably the most remarkable exhibition of marks¬ 
manship ever seen at the traps of the Camden Shooting 
Association Edward Vonkattengell, of Red Bank, yes¬ 
terday wrested from Eugene Springer, of Cape May 
Court House, the title of champion of New Jersey. 
Beaten four weeks ago in an effort to annex the honors 
which Springer has carried since the last State shoot, 
Vonkattengell again challenged, and yesterday afternoon 
he realized his ambition by breaking 98 out of 100 tar¬ 
gets to 89 for Springer. Not content with shifting this 
title from south to north Jersey, the new champion and 
J. Frank James, also of Red Bank, captured the two- 
man team title from Springer and Frank Hineline, both 
members of the Camden club. 
Vonkattengell was in rare form, cleanly smashing 
the first 66 targets thrown. His first miss was on the 
seventh target in the third twenty-five and his other
