DuPont 
Gun 
Club. 
Wilmington, Del., March 8. —To-day J. T. Roberson 
won for keeps the handsome sterling silver cup donated 
by Frank L. Connable to the Du Pont Gun Club, and 
which has been the subject of so many interesting 
contests during the past twelve months. Mr. Roberson 
did not win his title to the cup without a struggle, as 
his best “two scores out of three” only totalled 82 against 
81 for Alden B. Richardson. In third place came W. 
M. Foord, who scored 43 out of 50 on Washington’s 
Birthday. Eight of the nine qualified to contest put in 
an appearance. The scores:

With the aid of the above totals, Roberson won out 
by virtue of his having scored 41 out of 50 on Feb. 15. 
A. B. Richardson, who also scored 41 on the same day, 
started out badly yesterday, but finished with 23 out of 
25 from 22yds., being the best score made from handicap 
marks during the afternoon. 
Another event of interest during the afternoon was 
a challenge contest for the Class B 1912 trophy, donated 
by Eugene E. du Pont. N. K. Smith was the holder 
of the cup, and J. W. Anderson, Jr., one of the reliable 
members of Class B. was the challenger. Mr. Anderson 
won by breaking 40 out of 50. Mr. Anderson’s name 
is the twelfth to go on the cup, and consequently the 
next proceeding in connection with the cup will be the 
shoot-off for final ownership between the twelve in¬ 
dividuals who have at different times held the trophy. 
Four weeks ago Eugene E. du Pont, J. H. Min- 
nick and W. M. Foord tied in a contest for the Class A 
sjioon, and the tie was shot off to-day. The first shoot- 
off resulted in a tie between Mr. du Pont and Mr. 
Minnick, but on the second shoot-off du Pont won easily. 
In the regular T. Coleman du Pont spoon contests, 
lies occurred in no less than three out of the five classes, 
W. Edmanson, however, won the Class A spoon with 23 
out of 25 without a tie. C. T. Martin, R. P. Willis and 
Stanley Tuchton tied for the Class B spoon on 22 out of 
25, Tunchton winning on the shoot-off. In Class C, Dr. 
Horace Betts and A. M. Lindsay tied on 20 each, and 
in Class D, L. W. Crawford, W. G. Robelen and E. M. 
Ross tied on 15 out of 25. Class E was won by J. R. 
B. ailey with 13 out of 25. 
Sixty-one shooters in all competed in the regular 
events, but scores of 24 and 23 out of 25 were extremely 
scarce, while only one score of 25 straight was hung up 
during the afternoon, that being credited to Edward 
Banks, who broke 48 out of 50, running 45 straight. 
The scores made in the spoon events were as follows: 
Stabler 5, Bailey 13, Tomlinson 21, H. Winchester 17, J.

Se& Side Gun Club. 
Bridgeport, Conn.—In spite of the cold and dis¬ 
agreeable weather, there was a good-sized crowd out for 
the regular shoot of the Sea Side boys, Saturday, March 
8, and several very good scores were turned in under 
the circumstances. Lyon won the leg on the president’s 
cup, he being the first one to score a double win on 
this trophy, and breaking 48 out of the 50, with a 
handicap of 4, making him a perfect score. Billings 
won the leg on the handicap cup, and Blatz tucked 
away another one on the Island Brook cup, he and 
Kellogg now having two each on this trophy. It bids 
fair now for some very interesting matches at the close 
of the season in the shoot-off on several of the season’s 
trophies.
