Canandaigua Sportsmen’s Association. 
Syracuse, N. Y., Aug. 27.—The usual old guard 
was on hand to-day to carry out the scheduled shoot of 
the Canandaigua Sportsmen’s Club. Kibbe was high 
gun on actual targets broken, and Stoddard second. 
Stoddard, Kibbe and Van Wormer were tied with per¬ 
fect scores, including their handicaps, and shot off at 
10 targets, resulting in Stoddard 9, silver spoon; Kibbe 
8, cut-glass dish, and Van Wormer 7, Nyoil. 
Stoddard also won the Stevens gold watch fob trophy 
with 177 out of 200; Van Wormer scored 176. 
Mason defended his championship successfully against 
Kibbe, 44 to 39. 
Two more shooting days, Sept. 6 and 20, will finish 
the season, comprising 600 targets. The first prize, a 
china vase, is conceded to Stoddard, who maintains an 
80 per cent, pace, but the competition for the four other 
china prizes is close. Mason stands 73 per cent., Soule

Portsmouth, Va., Aug. 23.—There was an awfully 
strong wind blowing yesterday afternoon, and the targets

Dr. Corbell 46, Dr. Bvrd 42, Richardson 42. Talbot 41,

Chicago Interurban League. 
Chicago, Ill., Aug. 19.—The fifth shoot of the Chi¬ 
cago Interurban League of Gun Clubs took place on the 
grounds of the South Chicago Gun Club, Aug. 18. The 
day being very sultry cut the attendance down, without 
a doubt, as it was fully expected there would be one 
hundred shooters in attendance; but then seventy-nine 
shooters is not so bad—that has been about the average 
attendance at the league shoots. 
The fight for first place promised to be interesting, 
and no one present was disappointed. The Chicago 
Gun Club and Long Lake Club were tied with 24 points 
each, and the finish of this shoot found the two clubs 
tied with 232 each. On the shoot-off Chicago got 115 
and Long Lake 112, giving Chicago first place for the 
day. South Chicago landed third place with 230, only 
2 targets behind. The National scored 227, South Shore 
217, Hammond 208, Arlington Heights 205. 
The high individual score was made by C. E. Shaw, 
E. Silver, G. Hausler, Dr. Carson, C. Iloix, each break¬ 
ing 48. 
The shoot was well run off, the South Chicago Club 
having all arrangements in perfect running order. 
The standing of the league to date is as follows: 
Points. 
Chicago . 31

National . 24

North Side Gun Club. 
Milwaukee, Wis., Aug. 19.—In spite of the threat¬ 
ening weather, quite a number of the boys turned out 
for the monthly handicap tournament at the North Side 
Gun Club. The schedule called for 100 targets, but be¬ 
fore running off half of the events a continued heavy 
rain set in. making it impossible to complete the balance 
of the schedule. 
From Sept. 1 until Dec. 1 the club will shut down, so 
as to give the boys ample opportunity to take advantage 
of the open season for game. Chas. Groffy and Otto 
Tmse tied for high honors in the tournament, both 
breaking 40 out of a possible 50. Frank Heiden was » 
close second with 39. Ernst Reichel tied A. Piepen- 
hagen with 38 out of 50. the former trying out a new 
$150 trap gun. with which he expects to clean up every¬ 
thing in sight, after becoming accustomed to the gun. 
In a sweepstake before the tournament at the 16yd. 
line, Chas. Groffy, A. Piepenhagen and Geo. Obenber- 
ger tied with 24 out of 25. Scores follow: 
In the 25-target sweepstake, all at 16yds., the scores
