Pahquioque Rod and Gun Club. 
Danbury. Conn., July 4.—As our club, the Pahqui¬ 
oque Gun Club, is to hold its annual tournament July 22 
I will give you an outline of some of the principal 
features. We are to give 100 prizes, actual value $500. 
There are seventy average prizes, so you see we are 
pretty confident of having a good crowd, as this is more 
than there are shooters attending most of the tourna¬ 
ments. There are four series in the program. First 30, 
open, with six prizes; next 45, handicap, with seven 
prizes; next 55, handicap, with seven prizes; next 30, 
open, with six prizes. There will be an extra charge of 
25 cents for each of the open and handicap events in the 
program. 
Every shooter is eligible for the average prizes for 
the price of targets, which are 2 cents each. Any ama¬ 
teur shooting the entire program, who does not "win a 
prize, gets one gratis. 
Danbury is the largest hatting center in the world— 
so hats have a prominent place in the prize list. If 
your headgear shows signs of having been talked through 
or is out of style, come and win a new one. 
The average prizes, the four series, and the five-man 
team race are open. There are several special prizes for 
Connecticut shooters, also for members of the Western 
Connecticut Trapshooters’ League. This is the fourth 
of the series of tournaments held by the League, and 
our club is endeavoring to make it memorable. 
The Du Pont Powder Co. has donated a sterling silver 
pitcher for the Connecticut shooters, to be shot for at 
the six tournaments held by the League. High average 
at each League tournament wins a leg. It has three 
individual legs thus far. 
The Western Cartridge Co., has donated a gold fob. 
The Western Connecticut Trapshooters League offers 
a trophy for the highest total for six tournaments. 
The amateur championship of Connecticut will be shot 
for, also the five-man team race and two-man team race. 
The five-man team race will be open to any club. Ten 
dollars in gold to winning League team, and five Dan¬ 
bury hats to winning team outside of League. 
Write for program to E. H. Bailey, Secretary, 27 Spring 
street, Danbury, Conn. 
North Dakota Sportsmen's Association. 
Kenmare, N. D., June 27.—Fargo won the four- and 
two-man team shoots, the State championship, the latter 
being taken by Nashold, of Fargo, with 272 out of 300. 
Portal took second in the team shoot, while Kenmare 
courteously waited for third. H. E. Peck, the genial 
Association’s . secretary, and one of its best shots, after 
several months out of the game through illness, pumped 
fast into 139 out of 150, shooting only the second day. 
H. G. Taylor successfully beaded 288, winning first 
money in professional class.

Analoslan Gun Club. 
Washington, D. C., July 2.— Twenty-five enthusiastic 
members of the Analostan Gun Club reported for prac¬ 
tice and a good time Saturday afternoon. They had a 
good time, too. During the afternoon an aeroplane from 
the War Department’s practice grounds, at College Park, 
passed over the field at a high altitude, and shooting 
was suspended for several minutes to watch the machine. 
Uncle Billy Wagner and C. S. Wilson, our genial 
president, tied for high gun, each scoring 93 out of 100. 
Geo. W. Peck, Jr., the original “Peck’s Bad Boy,” 
crowded the high man by breaking 92. Forest W. Mc- 
Neir. from Texas, however, was high man over all in 
his 100, scoring 97 of them, and two of them were missed 
in his last string of 15. He also shot well in the doubles, 
breaking 21 out of 24. Several new members were out, 
and of those, Mr. Matteson had his first experience at 
the clays. He will learn to break them without much 
trouble. Following are the scores:
