Cincinnati Gun Club. 
Sunday, M.iy 11, was an ideal day for outdoor sport 
of any kind, and a big crowd was expected, but owing 
to the street car strike inaugurated on the previous 
day. none but downtown and Kentucky shooters could 
get to the grounds. The team match with the West- 
wood Gun Club was postponed on this account until 
the ISih inst., if normal conditions have been restored 
by that time. Good scores were made. Schreck and 
Trimble tying for first honors on 93, shooting an even 
race throughout. Gambell kept the leaders close com¬ 
pany and was only one behind at the finish. 
In the team race Gambell and Hammer put it over 
Gaskill and Smith, although the latter team had the best 
of the first two rounds. 
The Du Pont trophy contest was finished to-day, two 
scores being shot to catch up with time lost on account 
of the flood. There were si.x contests scheduled, four 
best scores to count, and the finish found Schreck and 
Sander tied on four perfects, including their handicap. 
Their scores in the contest, actual breaks, were: Schreck, 
46, 47, 47, 44, 49; .Sander, 33, 38, 36, 37, 39, 41. The tie 
will be shot off on May 18. 
In the contests to-day Trimble, Schreck and Gambell 
were high in actual breaks with 50, 49 and 48 respec¬ 
tively. The club is making arrangements for a big time 
on the 30th, and expects a good attendance of local 
shooters. 
John R. Taylor was in town on the 10th on his way 
to the Southern Handicap, but had to leave too early to 
get into the shoot here. L. J. Squier accompanied 
Taylor on his trip South. The scores:

New Jersey State Sportsmen’s Associatiun. 
'The tenth annual tournament of the State Sports¬ 
men’s Association will be held June 5-7, under auspices 
of Riverside Gun Club, Red Bank, Monmonth county, 
N. J. The grounds are located on Shrewsbury avenue, 
and are easily reached by trolley. 
Red Bank, the metropolis of Monmouth coiunty, has 
a population of about 8,000, and is situated at the navi¬ 
gable head of the North Shrewsbury River, about thirty 
miles from New York and six miles from the Atlantic 
Ocean. It is the terminus of ihe Merchants’ Steamboat 
Company’s line, whose boats run daily tO' and from New 
York, and it is on the line of the New York & Long 
Branch Railroad, thereby enjoying the advantage of the 
excellent train service of the Central Railroad Company 
of New Jersey, and the Pennsylvania Railroad to and 
from New York city. It is also, a junction for trains be¬ 
tween New York, Lakewood and Atlantic City. The fact 
that one hundred trains daily in the summer season and 
nearly as many the entire year, connect Red Bank with 
New York city, makes it a suburb of that city. The 
Riverside Gun Club was formed at Red Bank in the year 
1884, but no regular organization was effected until 1886. 
Dr. Edwin Field was its first President, and John P. 
Cooper, Secretary and Treasurer. Mr. Cooper occupied 
that office continuously for nearly twenty years. 
In the year 1890 the club leased grounds on the south 
side of Beech street, erecting a club house and enclosing 
the pr.'ipcrty. There it remained for many years, an 
active and flourishing gun club. For a time after the 
State abolished live-bird matches, interest in target 
shooting declined, and the club grounds were given up. 
Subsequently some of the members, principally Albert L. 
Ivins, the present president of the club, succeeded in 
arousing sufficient interest among the friends of trap¬ 
shooting to re-establish the Riverside Gun Club on its 
present firm footing, thereby giving us all a chance to 
enjov a mighty attractive and healthful sport. 
New grounds were secured and a club house erected. 
The membership now is about one hundred and com¬ 
prises the representative citizens of Red Bank and the 
neighboring communities, and is rapidly increasing. A 
cordial invitation is extended to all, ladies as well as 
gentlemen, who ai’e interested in target shooting, to at¬ 
tend the tournament and share in its success. 
To reach groun<ls take Long Branch trolley cars at 
railroad station direct to grounds. Shooting will com¬ 
mence each day at 9:30 A. M. sharp. The events are 
open to residents of New Jersey only. In the team 
championships, after the price of targets is deducted, 
the balance v;ill be divided among the three high teams, 
40, 30 and 20 per cent, respectively. Winners also to 
receive cups, which they hold subject to challenge every 
thirty days until the following annuaj shoot, when they 
must return them to the State Association. This shoot 
is to be run under the Squier money-back system, and 
any shooter who shoots in all regular events (champion¬ 
ships and merchandise not included) and fails to. win 
Analostan Gun Club. 
W.tSH’tNGTON, D. C., May 11.—Yesterday was cold 
and raw, .and during the day a very high wind prevailed. 
This accounts for the small turnout at the Analostan 
traps, and the very poor scores that were made. Capt. 
Peck was the leader to-day with 81 out of 100, followed 
by Ford with 77, and (he best Kirk and Graves could 
do was 72 each. Ford distinguished hijnself when it 
came to the doubles, and scored 22 out of 24. Following 
are the scores made during

Fulton Game and Gun Club. 
Fulton, N. Y., May 10.—Nineteen enthusiasts shot 
trapward to-day in practice, and some scores commend¬ 
able were made, considering Old Boreas and his friend 
gale, who did their best to. persuade the targets out of 
the straight and narrow path. J. C. Hunter smeared the 
afternoon sunbeams with 82 scalers out of 100 loosed. 
There were two 78’s, one going to C. Hobbie, the other to

Nekdow Springs Gun Club. 
Philadelhpia, Pa., May 10.—Harry H. Sloan was 
top .gun here to-day, getting 88 out of 100. This gave 
him the dipper offered by the club for the best actual 
score. Thompson carried home the spoon donated for 
the high score, handicaps included. He totaled 93, SI 
In the 50 blue rock merchandise event, Sloan landed 
the first prize with 48 out of his fifty. Rothaker and 
Thompson tied for second trophy with 45 each, and on 
the shoot-off at ten flyers Thompson won by breaking 8.
