The first big shoot of the Asbury Park Gun Club 
was held at the club grounds in Loch Arbour, Asbury

wind and intense cold, creditable scores were the rule. 
Many out-of-town gunners attended, including some half 
dozen professionals, among whom W'ere Neaf Apgar, 
Carl von Lengerke, Garrison and Davis. The shoot be¬ 
gan early in the morning and lasted until dark, three 
traps being used. There were ten events of 15 targets 
each, for cash prizes under the Rose system; also the 
weekly competition among members for the handicap 
cup, together with the regular practice events and trophy

Saratoga Gun Club. 
Saratoga, N. Y., Feb. 22.—The holiday shoot of the 
Saratoga Gun Club held to-day was attended by eight 
pottery smashers and a driving sleet in the face of the 
shooters. Considering the conditions, there was plenty 
of sport, and we hope the next tough day the porch 
shooters will come out and enjoy the sensation. 
In the event for the Stevens fob Corey broke 9 out 
of 10 and captured the event. In the Levengston cup 
race Kearney, with 8 added targets, won by one target, 
beating Corey (scratch) for the honors. Hammond 
finished third. Other scores were as follows:

Independent Gun Club. 
Frontier Rod and Gun Club. 
Easton, Pa., Feb. 22.—The Independent Gun Club 
held the first shoot of the season for a challenge cup on 
its grounds at Cedarville to-day. There was a small at¬ 
tendance owing to the weather conditions, there being 
a rainstorm and a heavy fog hung over the grounds, 
which made it very hard to see the targets. The cup 
was won by .Sked, a professional “but a member of our 
club,” he having broken 65 out of 75. J. Maurer was a 
close second with 64. Sked did not want to accept the 
honor of winning the cup, but as he is a member of 
the club, the “boys” said he would have to defend it, 
and he was promptly challenged by J. Maurer to shoot 
for it, and March 22 was decided on for the day to 
shoot it off. This cup is to represent the championship 
of the club, any member being eligible to challenge the 
holder, the conditions being 75 bluerocks per man.
