with 145 and E. R. Holt third with 142.

Buffalo Audubon Club. 
The club members turned out in good numbers to our 
club shoot, twenty-three in all. It seemed like old times 
to see some of the members who have been out of the 
game for some time. We hope to see Messrs. Cannon, 
Imhoff, Eaton, Bargar, Babcock and Burgwardt out reg 
vdarly in the future. 
Some good shooting was witnessed by the many 
spectators present, F. S. Wright being high for the day 
with 93 out of the 100. Mr. Iloupt shot well for the 
second time at the traps, finishing with 75 per cent. 
Messrs. Wright, Burke and Rappock were winners in the 
badge event in Class A, B and C respectively, while 
Wright, Imhoff and Iloupt scored in the spoon event. 
In the W. H. Smith trophy event Messrs. Lambert and 
Imhoff won with straight scores in Class A and B. and 
Iloupt won Class C. Messrs. Moser and Rommel made 
application for membership. Scores follow:

Lorain Gun Club. 
Lorain, O., July 20.—Fancy scores were made at the 
second annual registered tournament of the Lorain Gun 
Club, held Thursday, in spite of the high wind and rain¬ 
storm. Geo. Volk copped high average in the amateur 
events, “killing” 140 birds. J. P. Traxler was second with 
a score of 139, and C. E. Doolittle, of Cleveland, with a 
score of 138 out of a possible 150, was third. 
The high wind and heavy rainstorm dampened the 
enthusiasm of the spectators, but the marksmen braved 
the stiff zephyrs and finished with good scores. 
Cleveland turned out with a good hunch of sports¬ 
men, as well as Sandusky. Come again, boys, we will 
not forget you.

Trapshooters’ 
League.

time. C. F. ‘Moore got away with the big roll with a 
score of 143 out of 150. He started badly, losing 3 in 
his first event, and 2 in the third. He ran the second

North Side Gun Club. 
Milwaukee, Wis., July 14.—Despite the fact that the 
fishing season is on in full sway, and as quite a number 
of our members are very enthusiastic in the art of Izaak 
Walton, the attendance at the North Side Gun Club 
shoot to-day was very gratifying. E. Reichel led a field 
of twenty-four shooters by breaking 97 out of 100. Groffy 
Immekus, Gus Piepenhagen and Obenberger tied for 
second honors with 95. In the sweepstake of 25, Groffy 
and Piepenhagen broke even with a straight. In a special 
match Geo. Sell defeated E. Reichel by one target, 
breaking 24 out of 25. Scores:

New Jersey State Rifle Association. 
Sea Girt, N. T., July 17.—The first trap shoot of 
the New Jersey State Rifle Association took place here 
to-day and was most successful. The score sheet looked 
like a page from ye olden days. They came from all 
parts. Mrs. Vogel shot pretty well on day one, but 
going off badly on second day. John Philip Sousa, J. T. 
Skelly, Les. German, Jack Fanning, Harry Kahler and 
other genial and artistic wielders of batons and rock- 
breakers vied with one another to keep up interest in 
the merry art of pull and bust. C. Newcomb took down 
high average kale with 288 out of 300. Harry Kahler, 
the redoubtable, made second upper with three less.

Triangle Gun Club. 
Madison, Wis., July 18.—There was a goodly gather¬ 
ing of powder igniters here to-day and plenty of excite¬ 
ment. A. E. Van Wald, did some great shooting, smash¬ 
ing cleanly 145 out of 150. J. F. Wulf trailed close up 
with 142, and but for a sad stumble in seventh and 
ninth events, would have come pretty close to counting. 
W. D. Stannard shot like a demon in the professional
