there were six entries: Col. Hake leading with 202. 
Four re-entries are allowed in this match, the last

Shoot at Maysville, Ky. 
The Mason County Gun Club held a very successful 
shoot on April 23. In point of attendance the shoot 
was rather a disappointment to the club officials, as 
they expected a much larger number of shooters, but 
in every other respect they have nothing to regret. 
The arrangements were all good, and everything ran 
smoothly from start to finish. The town’s people 
turned out in force to see the sport, a noticeable feature 
being the number of ladies who visited the grounds dur¬ 
ing the afternoon. The club is fortunate in having 
grounds near town, and directly on the street car line, 
a ride of ten or fifteen minutes from the hotels, landing 
one at the entrance to the park. There is a good sky 
background, distant hills at the shooters’ sight, not pre¬ 
venting the right angle targets from being easily seen. 
The program consisted of five events at 15 and five at 20 
targets each, entrance $1.50 in each event, money divided 
Rose system, 5-3-2 in the first five, and 5-3-2-1 in the last 
five events. The club added one-half cent for each target 
trapped for high average money, divided 40-30-20 and 10 
per cent, high guns. An extra event at 25 targets, for a 
trophy, was scheduled, but was called off owing to lack 
of time. An added feature was the contest for the Ken¬ 
tucky State Challenge Cup. which was first placed in 
competition in 1912, and which has been shot for five 
times, this making the sixth contest. It was first won 
bv T. H. Clay, Jr., of Austerlitz, in May, 1912, on a score 
of 96. Fie was challenged by W. FI. Hall, who won the 
cup in October, 1912, on a score of 95. In April, 1913, 
C. Strother, of Winchester, won on 92. J. D. Gay, Paris, 
won in May, 1913, on 96, and W. H. Flail, won for the 
second time in October. 1913, on a score of 96. The 
trophy is open only to members of the Kentucky Trap 
Shooters League. There were twenty-four entries, among 
the out of town shooters being F. E. Bell, Lexington, 
Ky.; Sam Leever, Goshen, Ohio; J. E. Nutt and F. H. 
Lawson. Portsmouth. Ohio; H. T. and C. B. Strother, 
Winchester, Ky.; H. M. Stegeman and H. R. Irwin 
Fort Thomas, Ky.; J. B. Lallance, Jr., Huntington, W. 
Va.; PI. S. Connelly, J. E. Schreck, Arthur Gambell and 
R. J. Dibowski, Covington, Ky.; A. A. Franklin, Louis¬ 
ville, Ky.; H. FI. Caines, Georgetown, Ky. The trade 
was represented by R. L. Trimble, W. R. Chamberlain, 
C. O. Le Compte, C. T. Moore and George W. Maxwell. 
The shoot was not started quite on schedule time, the 
first squad being called about 10:40, but this delay gave 
the strangers a chance to put in a little practice, and get 
a line on the targets, which were by no means easy ones. 
In the morning the wind was high, but from a quarter 
which caused the targets to soar and jump. As the day 
wore on the wind increased, and the shooters had their 
troubles. The officers of the club are: J. A. Simpson, 
president; J. M. Cochran, secretary and treasurer; W. FI. 
Hall, field captain, and they were all on the job today, 
looking after the details of the shoot, as well as the 
comfort of the contestants. The office work was done 
by A. M. January, who kept things right up to the 
minute, and’ paid everyone off promptly after the close 
of the program. Long runs were not very long, or very 
numerous. Maxwell had one of 55, and another of 79, 
which was the largest made. H. S. Connelly, ran 50 
straight, and thus secured a point on the Du Pont 
Trophy for the season’s long run. Lallance just missed 
getting a point, his run being 49. High amateur aver¬ 
age was made by H. Strother, 165; FI. S. Connelly, 161; 
W. FI. Hall. 160'; J. B. Lallance, Jr., and FI. H. Gaines, 
159 each. The shooting of Geo. W. Maxwell was a fea¬ 
ture of the day. and he always had a big gallery when 
on the firing line. Fie was high gun with 170. C. F. 
Moore was second high with 167, and W. R. Chamberlain 
was third high professional with 165. The challenge cup 
race was a close one between H. Strother, H. S. Con¬ 
nelly and W. FI. Hall, the holder. At the end of the 
third round, Strother and Connelly were tied with 3 
down out of 60. Flail was six down but still had bis ad¬ 
herents, for be is known to be a stayer, with the nerve 
to keep him fighting against odds. In the fourth round 
Connelly dropped 2, Strother and Hall going straight. 
Gaines 'also went straight in this round, making him 
tied with Hall, and one target behind Connelly. 
Strother finished his score first, going out with 95._ This 
left Connelly as the only one with a chance to tie. He 
kept up his pace, and it surely looked like a shoot-off 
was on the program, but his 16th target jumped out of 
the pattern and he finished with 91. Hall being third on 
93, and Gaines fourth with 90. This finished the day’s 
sport, and a run was made on the Cashier January, 
who speedily settled with the winners, and a most en- 
jcvable shoot was brought to a close. A little later the 
west bound train was stopped at the grounds, for the 
Cincinnati bunch, a courtesy which was duly appreciated.

FRED C. WPIITNEY, Cashier. 
Nemours (Ladies) Trapshooting Club. 
Wilmington, Delaware, April 22, 1914. 
To-day was an ideal one, and a large number of mem¬ 
bers and visitors were out for the weekly shoot. 
A fickle wind made the targets cut capers and caused 
some of the best shooters to fall down a trifle, but on 
the whole the scores were fair. 
Some of our new shooters came up wonderfully to¬ 
day—Miss Bingham who has only been shooting for a 
very short time broke 12 x 25 with her little 20 gauge. 
Mrs. Springer broke 9 with her new 12 gauge, and Miss 
Schofield in her practice shoot smashed 14 with her 
little 16. 
In the handicap event nine of the shooters tied for 
the Ramsay Trophy and the eleventh book in the Book- 
lovers’ Contest. In the shoot-off of 10 targets Mrs. 
Joslyn won and will be the holder of the medal until 
the next regular shoot. She also captured the volume: 
“Peerless Alaska” by Chas. Hallock. 
Scores (25 targets) follow: 
Mrs. J. R. Bradley, 8; Mrs. H. Stidham, 9; Mrs. H. 
White, 2; Miss C. Bingham, 10; Mrs. C. Springer, 9; 
Miss A. E. Rilev. 9; Miss M. V. Lannan, 12; Mrs. W. 
A. Joslyn, 16; Miss J. P. Hirst, xi; Miss H. D. Ham¬ 
mond, 16; Mrs E. L. Riley, 14; Miss E. P. Flammond, 
5; Miss B. V. Carson, 12; Miss A. Schofield, 3; Mrs. 
B. V. Clark, 8; Miss J. Gentieu, 12; Miss C. Wynands, 
4; Mrs. B. McKaig, 9. 
The ladies are getting in trim for the shoot with 
the ladies of the Fox Gun Club next Saturday, April 
25th, at the grounds of the Du Pont Trapshooting Club, 
Thirty-six ladies will participate in the event.
