Jan. 4.—Too much wind slipped unexpected motors 
of an eccentric pattern into the aereosaucers here to-day, 
in consequence of which most of the scores do not seem 
to belong to the names alongside of them. However, 
it’s no printer’s error. They belong where they are. 
Frank B. Stephenson, possibly, may be made an e.x- 
ception—he outguessed old Boreas, 201 out of 250 times. 
G. G. Stephenson, Jr,, from a gift of 6, took limb on 
committee cup with 41, and a support on Remsen cup 
with (3) 23. F. T. Bedford with 2 gratis scalers copped 
pillars on monthly cup with 24. Take-home trophy was 
won by scratch man, F. B. Stephenson with 88. F. O. 
Williams was topper on James cup with 46 from the 
egg, but being a non.member, had to relinquish the 
honor to Stephenson, Jr. Scores:

Cincinnati Gun Club. 
On Dec. 29. O. J. Holaday was high gun with 90 
out of 100. The conditions were not good for high 
scores, drizzling rain falling the latter part of the after¬ 
noon. E. J. Squier was the only shooter to go straight 
in any one of the five events. In the team match, 
Tiimble and Holaday, the two local professionals, got 
the best of Squier and Ilammerschmidt by 6 targets. 
Ralph Trimble has not been much in evidence in the 
local shooting game for some time, and was in poor 
shape to-day. John Schreck is alway on hand, and 
generally puts up a better score than his to-day’s tally^ 
Jlc.Ardle got to the grounds late, and only shot at 65 
targets, in the last 25 of which he broke 17, Ham- 
merschmidt getting 22. O. T. Holaday shot at 50 tar¬ 
gets, breaking 8 out of the last 10. A. Sunderbrucli 
used to be one of the best shots in the club, and needs 
only a little steady practice to get back his old stand- 
ing again. The scores:
