Hud son Gun Club. 
Jersey City, N. J., Sept. 8. —Appended are scores 
of our regular bi-monthly shoot, held this morning. 
There were eighteen shooters in attendance, and Carl 
von Lengerke was high gun with 81 per cent. The day 
was bright and cool, with a good stiff wind blowing 
across the traps, which made the targets cut up all kind 
of antics, making it necessary to shoot very quickly to 
get a fair percentage of them. W. Hutchings in the 
fourth frame broke 24, which was the best individual 
score of the day, getting his targets right in the center 
and making a cloud of smoke out of them. 
Billy Emmons, one of our old members, blew in 
from Hartford, Conn., where he now makes his home, 
to take a try at the game again. Billy had a chip on 
his shoulder and was looking for blood. He shot several 
matches with G. Emmons and A. Emmons, and won out 
by a small margin. The boys say that they were stalling, 
so as to make Billy feel good and go back to Hartford 
and tell his friends what a remarkable shot he is. Come 
soon again, Billy, and we will trim you to the Queen’s 
taste. 
Kelley tried to get a match with Toe Whitley, but 
I guess “Whit” knows that Kelley is too strong for 
him, as he refused to take a chance of another defeat. 
Otir next shoot will be held on Sept. 22, and we 
would like to have a good attendance on this date. 
Everybody is welcome, 
so come out and look 
us 
over.
