Seventeen men faced the traps to-day. W. E. Fer¬ 
guson, from a handicap of 97, captured a handicap 100-

Indian«polis Gun Club. 
Indianapolis, Ind., Feb. 22.—A temperature of 30 
degrees and a 45-mile wind was the weather contribu¬ 
tion to the tournament of the Indianapolis Gun Club 
to-day. But the twenty-two shooters did the best they 
could and were cheerful. There was no great attraction 
in the way of possible winnings—just a little jack rabbit 
program of lOO targets, entrance $5 and a dollar for 
targets which was preceded by a little practice while 
the folks gathered, and followed by an extra fifty under 
about the same conditions. Edmonson led the ama¬ 
teurs with 82% per cent. Jewett was close up with 80. 
The club will throw a tournament each month during 
the season of 1913, and perhaps solve the question of 
“too many tournaments.” The scores follow:
