Hudson Gun Club. 
Jersey City, N. J., Sept. 25. —Appended are the 
scores of the regular bi-monthly shoot of the Hudson 
Gun Club, held on Sept. 22. There were eighteen shoot¬ 
ers in attendance, and Billy O’Brien, with an average of 
84 per cent., was high man. 
The morning was bright and cool, with just enough 
wind blowing from behind to put a little extra speed on 
the targets, and making the boys shoot quick to get a 
fair percentage of them. We had the pleasure of meet¬ 
ing one of our old club members, Mr. Craft, who has 
been on the Pacific Coast for the past two years, and 
who could not resist the opportunity while in New 
York to pay us a visit. He showed us that he still 
knows how to handle the tools to break targets with bv 
keeping very close to the leaders. We were all pleased 
to have him with us again, and wish him the best of 
good luck in his new field of business. 
The Du Pont trophy contest will start next shoot, 
Oct. 6, and we would like to see a good gathering on 
hand to compete for it. Joe Whitley says that the corn 
is ready to pick, and promises to have several barrels on 
hand for shooters and their friends to dispose of, so 
come out and help us eat it. Everybody welcome. 
Don’t forget the date, Oct. 6. Take the Turnpike car 
to the west side of the Hackensack River Bridge and 
follow the crowd. Scores:

Prepare for Exposition Tournaments. 
One of the attractions of the Panama-Pacific Inter¬ 
national Exposition, to be held in San Francisco in 1915, 
will be a series of target tournaments of interstate, 
national and international importance. The leading shoot¬ 
ing societies of California have formed a corporation 
known as the International Shooting Festival Associa¬ 
tion of 1915, to promote target shooting in all its 
branches, establish a federation of shooting clubs and to 
arrange and supervise the contests that will be held. 
Trophies and cash prizes of such value will be offered 
that marksmen will be justified in coming to take part. 
Suitable ranges will be provided for all contests, and suf¬ 
ficient targets will be provided to accommodate any num¬ 
ber of competitors. Golden Gate.
