A. B. C. Gun Club. 
Platteville, Wis., July 31.—We gave a picnic for the 
Dubuque, Iowa Gun Club last Thursday, and while they 
enjoyed every minute of it, we only rejoice at part of the 
ceremony because their five-man team was just a little 
rough in the treatment they gave our team. The shoot 
was fifty birds per man and the final score 199 to 165. 
Isn’t that a bit unkind? We had such a good crowd at 
the picnic that the Sunday shoot was light, only 8 men 
grunting—pull. 
E. Bellmeyer was high with 42 out of 50; J. C. David, 
second with 38 and B. Dorscher, third with 36. T. J. B.
