W. D. Elliott, Secretary, Chatham (Ont.) Gun Club, 
writes that the registered tournament to have been held 
July 6-7, was abandoned because of small attendance. 
V, 
The Carthage Rod and Gun Club has fine new grounds

If any questions arise in your club that need an arbiter, 
send them along to me. I will settle them for you. Or, 
if there are any phases of the shooting game that you 
think will be improved by discussion among the fra¬ 
ternity, or that will be improved by the lime-light of 
publicity, let me have them. Our columns are open to 
vou at all times. 
P, 
The Ungua Corinthian Yacht Club at Amityville, L. I., 
is breaking into the trapshooting world quietly. They 
are not making any big scores yet, but practice will take 
care of that. Last week there were twelve shooters, and 
while three of them got only 1 out of 10, and several 
broke 3 out of 30, one or two pretty fair scores were 
made. I look for much better scores within a month.

The majority, cr twenty-first, tournament of Arkansas 
State Sportsmen’s Association shoot was held in Clinton 
Park. It Was here that the first tournament was held, 
and it is interesting to note that three men who shot at 
the initial tournament were on the firing line at the 
tournament held on the 14th. They were: J. T. Lloyd, 
Pine Bluff; Dr. A. W. Williams, Plot Springs, and J. M. 
Pemberton, Little Rock. Their scores were: Pemberton 
521 out of 570; Williams, 126 out of 150; Lloyd, 275 out 
of 360. Beec-roft. 
SL Paul Rod and Gun Club. 
Minneapolis, Minn., July 17.—A highly interesting 
day’s shoot was held on the St. Paul Rod and Gun 
Club grounds on Sunday, July 16. The conditions called 
for ten events of 20 targets each, 18yds. rise, targets 
thrown the limit, and nobody barred. Targets left the 
trap at a merry clip, and with the assistance of the wind 
would cover a distance of 80yds. after leaving the trap. 
Contestants found it hard to connect with the disks, and 
the shooting extremely difficult, consequently no straights 
were recorded during the day. 
R. R. Barber was successful in landing first average 
by a comfortable margin, and not being satisfied with 
this honor, took first money in the extra event at 10 
pairs, with a score of 18 out of a possible 20, easily lead¬ 
ing his field, as his nearest competitor, who turned up 
in Dick Clancy, scored but 14. Scores as follows:

Trap. 
Clearview Gun Club. 
McCullough, shooting with a handicap of 7 dead tar¬ 
gets to his credit, won the sixth summer shoot of the 
Clearview Gun Club, which was decided yesterday after¬ 
noon at the Darby traps. Out of his 50 targets McCul¬ 
lough broke 44, which with his liberal allowance enabled 
him to top both the club members and the visitors, who 
shot through the program. McCullough won the shoot¬ 
ing blouse offered for the high club member, and also 
got a win on the trophy which has been donated for the 
season winner. 
Allen Bonsall and Dalton tied for second place with a 
total score of 49 breaks, they all reaching that mark be¬ 
cause of their handicap. IPolznagle with 48, beat out 
Harry Fisher for third place by a bird. The latter was 
the best actual breaker of bluerocks on the grounds, he 
smashing 45 of his 50 lot, but only having 2 as a handi¬ 
cap, failed to get up among the leaders. 
Jesse Griffith, of the S. S. Whites and Independent 
Gun Club, won the visitors’ trophy, a shooting glove, 
by breaking 42 of his 50 birds. J. P. Pratt tied up with 
Stevens for second place with 4i. Scores:
