FOREST AND STREAM 
[Sept, g, ign. 
Northern Kentucky Gun Club. 
The money-back shoot of the club was held on Sept. 3, 
with a fair attendance. If the local men had turned out 
according to expectations, there would have been nothing 
to find fault with in this respect; but they were con¬ 
spicuous by their absence. The club officers are con¬ 
sidering a proposition to present every local shooter dis¬ 
covered on the grounds at the next tournament with a 
$20 gold piece, and they are doubtful if this would 
necessitate a very great draft on the club’s funds. The 
surrounding towns were well represented, among the 
visitors being C. A. Young, of Springfield, O.; T. J. 
Donald, of Felicity, O.; R. Stickles, of Hamilton, O.; 
C. L. Moeller and E. M. Stout, of Circleville, O.; Ike 
Brandenburg and Ed. Cain, of Dayton, O.; W. Webster, 
of Columbus, O.; R. H. Bruns, of Brookville, Ind.; 
Francis, of Harrison, O., and G. G. Williamson, of 
Muncie, Ind. But for these shooters, the affair would 
have been a fizzle, and the officials wish to extend to 
them thanks for their attendance, and to express the 
hope that they will come again. The day was a good 
one for shooting, a slight fall in temperature making 
outdoor sport agreeable. In the early part of the day 
the wind affected the flight of the targets badly, but 
later the conditions were more nearly ideal, and some 
better work was done. The program consisted of ten 
15-target events, entrance $1.40 in each, money divided 
Rose system, 5, 3, 2, 1, in the first five, and 35, 30, 20 
and 15 per cent, in the last five. There was also a $2 
optional sweep on the entire program, divided high guns. 
50, 30 and 20 per cent. 
At the conclusion of the regular program a special 
event for^a silver basket was pulled off, with fourteen 
entries. I. J. Donald won the trophy for high amateur 
with a score of 141, or 94 per cent. E. M. Stout gave 
him rather a close race, being tied at the close of the 
fifth event on 5 misses each. In the last half of the 
program, Donald succeeded in getting one target the 
best of him. W. Webster divided second place honors 
with Stout. Charlie Young' was high man for the day, 
breaking 96 per cent., 144 targets, and making a run of 
t>5 in the last five events. Ed. Cain and George Dameron 
were not m their best form, though the latter picked up 
a little in the last three events. The former captured 
third place honors on 138 to Dameron’s 137. Ike shot 
? pr e Ry even Sait all through, and was only one target 
behind Dameron at the close. 
The money-back purse amounted to $21, (there was no 
loo co en rr- ai ?. c . e *?/ c ^ ar g e d)> and the losses totaled up 
$-0.60. E^ht shooters called for help in sums ranging 
from 65 cents to $4.05. ® s 
T h f ,special event resulted in a tie on 24 between Cain 
a 01 . oo am m, n - and the sh °°t-off was won by the latter 
—-1 to 20. I his was a handicap shoot, the extra yards 
cuttmg down the scores of some of the contestants. 
the next money-back shoot will be held on Oct 1 
an y wa y t0 draw ou t the local talent to this 
shoot, the club would like to receive suggestions.

The Fred Macaulay Business Men’s Gun Club. 
Newark, N. J., Aug. 30.—Fine shooting at the weekly 
meet of the Business Men’s Gun Club at the Speedway 
traps. Dr. E. Guenther, a recent acquisition to the 
gun club, carried off first honors yesterday afternoon. 
The Doctor came twice within one of a perfect score, 
getting 24 out of a possible 25 on each occasion. All 
his scores were very good, not one going below 18. Wm. 
Hassinger was second, and he too turned in some cred¬ 
itable tallies. Wm. Stengel, who recently had his 
L. C. Smith field gun overhauled, gave the gunners a 
surprise by smashing 20 and 21 out of a possible 25 
shot at each time. The scores follow:
