Du Pont Gun Club. 
Wilmington, Del., Sept. 7.—The reed bird season 
and the extremely sultry conditions on Saturday after¬ 
noon had a good deal to do with cutting down the at¬ 
tendance at the weekly shoot of the Du Pont Gun Club. 
Many of the Club’s members were in the marshes, so that 
only twenty-one faced the traps in the eighth contest foi 
the F. L. Connable silver cup. Dr. Stanley Steele scored 
his second win for the cup, and since H. P. Carlon has 
also scored two wins, there are only six possible con¬ 
testants so far in the final competition, although eight 
contests have been held. The conditions of the com¬ 
petition call for twelve monthly contests, the winners in 
those twelve contests shooting off for final ownership 
of the handsome cup. In addition to Dr. Steele and 
Mr. Carlon, the following have a chance in the final 
shoot: W. M. Foord, W. Edmunson, A. B. Richardson 
and H. W. Bush. Dr. Steele did not score his win 
without a fight for it, as he and W. Edmunson tied on 
21, Steele winning in the shoot-off by 20 to 18. 
In the match between J. H. Minnick, holder of the 
Class A cup, and Edw-ard Banks, challenger for the 
trophy, Banks came out ahead by one target with 46 to 
45. On the first half of the match the scores were 24 to 
23 in Banks’ favor, and both men broke 22 in the 
second half. 
H. W. Bush, the holder of the Class B cup, was chal¬ 
lenged by J. W. Anderson, Jr., and successfully de¬ 
fended the cup by breaking 43 to 36. 
The 1911 Class D cup was also up for open com¬ 
petition, and was won by H. P. Reed, who now has the 
right to have his name engraved on the cup and to shoot 
off for final ownership of the trophy. Mr. Reed and the 
nine other members of the gun club who have at differ¬ 
ent times won and held the Class D trophy, will shoot 
off for final ownership of the cup some date in the near 
future, to be fixed by the management of the club. 
Several of those present shot at 100 or more targets, 
H. P. Carlon being high with 94, J. B. McHugh being 
next to him with 93. 
The scores in the F. L. Connable cup event were as 
follows: *Edward Banks (22vds.) 22, Dr. St. Steels (19) 
21, W. Edmunson (20) 21, *R. P. Willis (16) 21, J. H.

Analostan Gun Club. 
Washington, D. C., Sept. 7. — Many good scores re¬ 
sulted this afternoon in the weekly shoot of the Analostan 
Gun Club, held on the club grounds, on the eastern 
branch of the Potomac. Singles, doubles and the month¬ 
ly spoon shoot made up the program, fourteen members 
being on the firing line. 
Frank Huseman, one of the best shots in the club, 
and who is looked upon as a winner at the Westy 
Hogan’s tournament, to be held in Atlantic City, Sept. 
17, carried off high honors this afternoon and won first 
prize in Class A of the spoon shoot, as he missed only 
one target out of his first 50. At the single he killed 97 
out of 100, which is a splendid record. He also did well 
at the doubles, getting 19 out of 24 shots. A. B. Stine 
and James A. Brown tied for first place in Class B of 
the spoon shoot, each breaking 38 out of 50. On the

finally Stine won out on the second trial at 10 birds, when 
he missed only one. Brown got 8 out of 10. A. V. 
Parsons was the winner in Class C, as he smashed 33 
bluerocks out of 50, while Arthur C. Moses was best in 
Class D, getting 25 out of the same number. Each win¬ 
ner received a handsome silver spoon suitably engraved 
commemorative of the event. George W. Peck, Jr., was 
second at the singles with 92 out of 100, while E. W. 
Ford got 89. A. B. Stine, who shot at 110, managed to 
break 89, which is a percentage of .809. A. M. Rivero,

Meadow Springs, Pa., Sept. 7. —Al. Renner was the 
star of the weekly shoot of the Meadow Springs Gun 
Club to-day, scoring his third win on the pump gun 
offered for the member getting three wins on it. His 
straight for the Thompson prize was the third consecu¬ 
tive time he had been high for the trophy, although 
Keenan also got a leg on it. Renner showed remarkable 
speed, which was not to be wondered at, as the birds 
were slow and tended to high scores. Renner also tied 
Keenan for the club spoon, but in the shoot-off Keenan 
broke 24. Henry, who came late, let up Keenan bv get¬ 
ting a straight. The two tossed for the prize and Henry 
won. Scores: Lindley (0) 73, Stevens (0) 75, Turner
