always depend on for shooting quality and results. 
It is not necessary to use high-priced ammunition to win success at the traps or in the field.

Cleveland Gun Club. 
Cleveland, Ohio, Dec. 21.—The regular weekly club 
shoot of the Cleveland Gun Club, held on Saturday 
afternoon, Dec. 20, at shooting park, Mayfield Road, 
Stop 10-A, was in keeping with the times, eighteen 
shooters taking part in the contests. The day was a 
real one, with good light and no wind, and could not 
have been better if ordered. The high gun honor was 
taken in by Mr. E. S. Rogers, with a score of 93 out 
of 100. Mr. Rogers had just returned home from a 
hunting trip from the South, and some of the boys 
thought they had him, 'but they will have to try again, 
as the week with the birds was just what he wan-ted, 
and to get away with the bunch was just like eating 
pie—so be good hereafter, boys. 
The_ following are the scores:

Pittsburgh, Pa., Dec. 15.— Editor Forest and Stream:

team round match on the Bon Air range Saturday after¬ 
noon, Dec. 13. Score: Dr. Hertig, 94-518; Mr. Holmes, 
9I-5I3- 
On the morning of the 14th James S. Jiles and W. 
J. Holmes, on one side, defeated G. W. Postgate and 
Dr. Hertig on the other, in a team round match. A high 
wind lowered the score somewhat, as Mr. Jiles had been 
going at a 500 clip for several weeks. Score: 
W. J. Holmes. 93-455 0 . L. Hertig. 91-451 
J. S. Jiles. 83-371G. W. Postgate. 72-324

Total score of team of four, 339-1601. O. L. H. 
Jersey City Gun Club. 
Jersey 'City, N. J., Dec. 23.—The turkey and chicken 
shoot of the Jersey City Gun Club was very well at¬ 
tended considering the inclement weather, as the indi¬ 
cations were for a stormy day early in the morning 
and at noon it began to blow hard and rain and kept 
on blowing harder and raining harder until at 3 P. M. 
it was a regular gale from the southeast and the rain 
so heavy the shooters could hardly see the targets—and 
these were the conditions under which the shoot ended 
at dark. Only ten had the courage to shoot through the 
entire program, and of these L. Colquitt was high gun 
with 71 per cent., which will give one some idea of 
the elements the shooters had to contend with. Al. 
Ivins won the fifty bird event for a ten-dollar gold 
piece. 'Several professionals were in attendance: H. H. 
Stevens, of U. M. C. Co., had charge of the office, as 
has been his custom for several years past at our poul¬ 
try shoots. Neaf Apgar, of Peters Co., Tom Davis, of 
Winchester Co., Carl Von Lengerke, of U. S. Cartridge 
Co., H. S. Welles, of Dead Shot Powder Co., and Jack 
Fanning, of Du Pont Co., all helped to keep things 
moving when some of the boys needed a little coaxing 
to induce them to get out on the firing line. Mr. and 
Mrs. A. Randall came over from New York, and Mrs. 
Randall didn’t mind the wind and rain, and when some 
of the men cried enough she was ready to take their 
place in the squad, and not only took their place but 
shot as good as the others of her squad.
