These victories, won against the hardest possible competition, show that our oft repeated claim for the ABSOLUTE SUPERI¬ 
ORITY of PETERS AMMUNITION is not mere idle talk, but a conservative and provable statement of FACTS. 
PETERS REVOLVER AND RIFLE CARTRIDGES of 32 and larger calibers are just as surely superior to other makes as Peters 
22 caliber. PETERS SMOKELESS Cartridges are as far ahead of competing brands as are PETERS SEMI-SMOKELESS. 
Shoot the P brand, the only kind that will shoot perfectly in ANY good gun.

Hudson Gun Club, held to-day. Dr. Culver with 92 per 
cent, was high, with good consistent shooting; C. Von 
Lengerke was the runner-up, scoring 85.6 per cent. The 
Du Pont trophy was won by B. Beyersdoft with a score 
of 192 with added handicap, out of 200 birds. W. 
Tewes and T. Kelley shot a 100-bird race with H. J. 
Burlington and A. Kurzell, and succeeded in trimming 
them to the tune of 17 targets, with the following 
scores: Tewes 69, Kelley 83; total 152. Burley 72, 
Kurzell 63; total 135. 
On our next shooting date, Dec. 29, we expect a

caps for our prize event, that starts early in January. 
Everybody is welcome at our grounds, so come out 
and pay us a visit.

Sunbury-Selinsgrove Gun Club. 
Sun bury, Pa., Dec. 20.—At our third annual poultry 
shoot to-day some very good scores were made, despite 
the high wind. The targets were caught in the gusty 
wind and were made to do all kinds of stunts to de¬ 
ceive the shooters. Hawkins, with 93 out of 100 targets, 
was high professional, Hassam at 86 being second pro¬ 
fessional. The high amateur score was rung up by 
Rohrbach with the good score of 88, he thereby winning 
the turkey of Class A. Schoffstall with 82 was second 
high amateur, getting the chicken of A class. Sigfried 
won the turkey of Class B, and Foster the chicken. 
Dawes and Spicer won the turkey and chicken of Class 
C. Cummings was the lucky man for a turkey in Class 
D. The scores follow:

Schoffstall, 
Sec’y. 
Westwood Gun Club, of Cincinnati. 
Cincinnati, O., Dec. 21.—Seven members attended 
the weekly shoot to-day. The weather conditions were 
not favorable for high scores, a strong, chilly wind 
causing the targets to take very erratic flights and 
making it very cold on the firing line. C. Rosemeyer 
was high with 39, and was closely followed by J. 
Schneider with 35, the latter breaking' his last 13 targets 
straight. Three new expert traps with electric pulls 
were installed yesterday, and getting them into working 
order delayed the shooting until late, so that only two 
events could be finished before dark. Weather permit¬ 
ting, the club will hold its next shoot on Dec. 28. 
The club has not put up its house, and it is rather 
cold work shooting in the open with the mercury several 
degrees below freezing and a brisk wind sweeping over 
the hills. That so many turn out speaks well for the 
enthusiasm of the members, and augurs well for the 
success of the club, and practice will soon bring up the 
scores of the beginners. 
The scores, oO targets per man, follow: C. Rose¬ 
meyer 39, J. Schneider 35, M. Stopper 26, H. Carlson 
22, C. Kuball 22, A. C. Kuball 20, Val Schroder 17.
