Du Pont vs. Camdem. 
Wilmington, Del., Oct. 26.— Du Pont got away with 
the gun to-day in the first shoot in the Philadelphia 
Trapshooters’ League. The Wilmington aggregation put 
the pall on the huskies from Camden by a score of 460 
to 424. Camden had twenty-one scores to draw from, 
while Du Pont lifted from forty-three, the rules of the 
game allowing selection of top ten shooters. Camden 
was well off form, based on last season’s scores. Du 
Pont shooters .were in fine fettle, the lowest ten qualify¬ 
ing being 45, while McHugh, topper for both teams, 
reduced to infinitesimal atoms 48 of the whirling der¬ 
vishes of clay. High cracker from Jersey was H. 
Greene with a bag of 45. Low Jersey man punctured on 
40 of his allotment. During the shoot of the big guns, 
Linn Worthington worked a 20-gauge gun for 38 out of 
50, while nd. Banks, who because of his attachment to 
the pink sheet brigade, was ineligible to crack rocks in 
the match event, busted up 49 out of 50 and 98 out of 
100, much to the annoyance of Les. German, who came 
along one behind. 
The scores made in the 
Du Pont Gun Club.

Cold weather having driven the piazza fleet behind 
battened hatches and left empty porch rockers to be 
rocked by the November winds, the trappers at Travers 
Island timidly overtimed last Saturday to shoot up a 
few clays, as is apt to be the case when two or three 
trapshooters are gathered together under the left hind 
foot of Mercury. A take-home trophy event at 100 tar¬ 
gets was decided upon for an opener. Handicaps were 
based on averages of the shooting last year. George 
Corbett was allow'ed four, but he didn’t need ’em, as 
he turned in a net score of 94, the same being four 
better than his nearest neighbor. Tom McMahon and 
Doc. Culver, each of whom proved partners on 90. J. 
Stuart Blackton tried his hand at steering No. 8 shot at 
high speeding aerosaucers. He did pretty well for a 
tyro, netting 31 out of his 100, with 6 to his credit out 
of ten pairs. 
In doubles, C. W. Billings came back to his form, 
cracking 16 out of 20, H. II. Shannon and Dr. Culver 
trotting a dead heat at 13. T. H. Keller, Jack Fanning 
and J. H. Hessian took care of the professional interests 
with their usual consideration.

Ossining Gun Club. 
Ossining, N. Y., Oct. 26.—There was a practice 
shoot held on the grounds of the Ossining Gun Club 
to-day which drew a small attendance. Scores were low, 
Blandford being the only one in form. On Thanksgiving 
Oay a Westchester county championship shoot will be 
held on these grounds during the afternoon. A team 
match between Peekskill, White Plains, Mt. Kisco, Os¬ 
sining and possibly Mt. Vernon will be one of the 
features of the shoot. Two merchandise events will be 
included in the program of 100 targets. 
Scores to-day at 50 targets each: C. G. Blandford 45 
A. R. R. Wood 29. Wm. Holden 35, A. Bedell 37. 
Wood and Bedell shot with strange guns, which, in 
a measure accounts for their poor showing.

Orange Gun Club. 
Albert Ivins, of Red Bank, essayed, last Saturday, 
to take from Ernest von Lengerke, of Orange Gun Club, 
the title of New Jersey State champion, and his essay 
came within two of being successful, when, after a match 
that was eitherbody’s to the finish, von Lengerke kept 
the title with one aerosaucer to the good. His final 
score was 48 out of 50. The match was as interesting as 
the post season baseball game, and had to go the limit 
before a winner could be picked. 
Four sweepstake events were shot, at 25 targets each. 
Ivins shot in two of these and got place in each. Event 
one went to Dukes, Colquitt and Von Lengerke on 23 
each. Second to Dukes and Ivins on 25 each. Third 
event to Hopper on 25 straight, and fourth to Colquitt 
on 25 straight. Scores in sweepstakes:

Princeton Trims Dartmouth. 
Princeton, N. J., Oct. 26.—While the Tiger eleven 
was putting the Dartmouth football squad in Hanovarian, 
the trap five of old Nassau was shooting the heads off 
the New Hampshire five over back of the green. The 
final score was 198 to 192, which, considering the advan¬ 
tage of home grounds, was not so appalling as might 
have been. High gun of the ten wore the green, being 
H. A. Stiles, who cracked 44 out of 50. Comstock, of 
Dartmouth; E. R. Simpson and H. R. Green, from 
W'ilson’s burg, tied on 43. Had L. C. Martin shot up 
to standard, the answer would have been different. He 
broke only 29. Scores:
