Chicago, III-, Jan. 25.■—The weather to-day was not 
the most inviting for target shooting, as it was cloudy 
and dark, with a good stiff wind driving the targets down, 
and had most of the thirteen shooters who faced the 
traps guessing as to where to hold on them so as to 
score dead birds. _ Fetherston landed the coveted prize 
of high amateur in both 15-target events with a total 
score of 90 out of 100. May and Barto did not allow 
Fetherston much leeway in the second 50, as they each 
broke 43. Ed. Graham started in with 15 straight in 
practice, _ broke 93 out of the next 100 and went 25 
straight in the last event, thus winning the pro. honors. 
Most of the scores are considerably below their usual 
average; and the marksmen all agreed to try to make 
up for it next week. Scores:

Jan. 20.—During the early part of the afternoon the 
weather was more like a spring day than midwinter, and 
a field of twenty-six shooters turned out for the several 
events shot during the afternoon. 
Fifteen new members were added to the club roll the 
past week, with more being reported in 'almost every 
day. A. H. Winkler, F. C. Young, A. B. Chladek, F. M. 
Libbe and P. Patrick were new members who were out 
to-day, and all did good work at the trap, this being 
Patrick’s second trial at smashing targets. 
C. K. Seelig was high amateur for the day with a 
total of 93 out of 100 in the two 50-target club events, 
and 21 out of 25 from 20yds. E. Silver ran him a close 
race for the honors of the day, showing the same total 
of 93 out of 100, but dropped behind in the extra event 
at 20yds., in which Silver broke 18 out of 25. Fred Bills 
ground ’em up to the tune of 97 out of 100 in the two 
50-target events. Bob Seelig’s 98 in the first was good 
for high mark. Silver’s 46 taking second place, Kammerer 
breaking 45 for third, while Schultz and Riley each 
broke 44. _ Silver concluded to go one better in the second 
50, and his total of 47 landed first, Seelig, Jr., and Schultz 
each crowding him along with scores of 46. Seelig, Sr., 
broke 45, while Kammerer and Winkler each broke 44. 
Doc. May showed the way in the practice event by tak¬ 
ing first place with 14 out of 15. Geo.. Eck landed the 
top score in eyent_ No. 4, breaking 22, gun below the 
armpit until bird is in sight. Hardy Wolfe took the 
honors in event No. 5 by breaking 24 out of 25, Young 
and Kammerer keeping him close company with a score 
of 23. Winkler, Young and Libbe did better each time 
they shot a frame, and their scores show that with 
regular practice they will soon land among the leaders.
