Daniel Boone Gun Club. 
Marthasville, Mo., Oct. 14.—One of our gun club 
members, a farmer, brought in seven sheep, to be butch¬ 
ered and the meat shot for. Each sheep was divided 
into six parts—four quarters, hide and heart and liver. 
We made four events of them, two sheep for each of the 
first three events and one sheep for event 4. The shoot¬ 
ing did not begin until late, so each event was made to 
consist of 10 birds. 
Below are the scores. A. F. Ahmann had a “crooked 
neck,” but it seemed to help him rather than hinder, for 
he made a straight in the last three events. The first 
event he did not shoot, on account of his neck, but the 
crack of the guns made him forget his dread of the 
recoil.
