Indianapolis, Ind., July 20.—Favorable conditions, 
fast work and surprises marked the meet of the Indian¬ 
apolis Gun Club. First came Carter, emerging from 
mediocrity, who led in the first 100 targets shot at with 
96 broken, and made a run of 58. In the finals, 160 tar¬ 
gets having oeen shot at, Edmonson again led with 154, 
Carter being second with 149. Edmonson, starting with 
the fourth frame, broke 99 out of 100, losing only the 
81st bird. That is the best performance credited to' a 
local amateur in the history of the club. Summary:
