FOREST AND STREAM. 
Chicago Gun Club. 
Chicago, Ill., Aug. 26.—With such a fine afternoon for 
target shooting we looked for a good attendance to-day, 
but the vacation season seems to have taken some of our 
shooters out of town; but don’t forget that this is a de¬ 
lightful place to come to, where you will forget business 
cares and the crowd of the city, and at the same time 
enjoy one of the most pleasant and healthful of sports. 
Morehouse and Dr. Wescott are two members who 
had not been out for several years, and now that they 
have made a start, we hope to see them out quite regu¬ 
larly. 
In the practice event at 25 targets, Morehouse and 
Davis each broke 23, while Goode scored 22. Fetherston 
walked off with first honors in event No. 1, when he 
scored 49 out of 50, although May was pushing him hard 
when he finished with 48, he having broke his first frame 
straight, this being the first time he had ever had a 
straight frame. Ed. Graham was next in line with 46, 
while Barto and Parker each broke 44. 
In the handicap event Keller put up a score of 49 
out of 50, and Davis broke 47, both shooting from 
16yds., while Fetherston finished with 45 from 22yds., 
having had a run of 77 straight. Davis made a strong 
finish when he went straight in an extra event at 25, 
having also gone straight in the last half of event 2 , 
which gave him a run of 63 without a miss. He also 
broke 22 out of the 12 pairs of doubles. 
After some of the shooters had left. Dr. Wescott 
drifted in for a turn at the traps, after an absence of 
over two years, and he promises to come out often in 
the future. 
Mitchell took a turn in the last few frames, of which 
he broke 49 out of 50 on singles and 20 out of 12 pairs. 
Keller had his gun lined up just about right to-day, 
as he was grinding the targets into dust quite regu¬ 
larly. 
In an extra event at 25 targets, which were thrown 
80yds., Barto cleaned up the bunch with 22 breaks 
Ed. Graham following with 21, while Cutler broke 20’ 
and Bill thought they were “going some.”

♦Practice. No. 3 was at 12 pairs. 
Aug. 27.—W hile many of our regulars were attending 
the Lake Geneva tournament, twenty-two shooters faced 
the traps at our park and had some fine sport, as the 
weather was all that could be desired. 
Mitchell, the genial U. M. C.-Remington representa¬ 
tive, was in good form, as he was in the lead most of 
the wav, taking first place in the practice event with 25 
straight, first in event No. 1 with a score of 48 out of 
50, and broke 43 out of 24 pairs. 
Among the amateurs Dr. Wescott and Mott tied for 
hrst in the practice, each breaking 21 out of 25; Eck 
1 enstermaker and Nimetz each scoring 20. 
I-ck landed first honors in event No. 1. by breakng 47, 
1'enstermaker coming in second with 45, while Wilcox 
returned a score of 44. 
Wilcox turned the trick of 50 straight in the handicap 
event, centering most of his targets in fine shape and 
grinding them into dust. Mitchell’s score of 47 from the 
;u yd ’i/ n f rk ’ w ? s another sr°od one. Earl broke 44 from 
the lbyd. mark, while Taggart scored 43 from 19yds„

Jl eV ^ f at singes, Wilcox and Mitchell

last week on his way to Iowa.

Warnimont says he don’t get as many as he used to 
0 a y i ars ." one by, but he thoroughly enjoys the snort 
and has just as much fun as any one. P ’ 
Becker and Nimetz came over a little late, as most of 
the boys were ready to go to the train 
lew frames to keep their hand in.

The Indians. 
Spirit Lake, la., Aug. 31. —The twelfth annual meet¬ 
ing and pow-wow of the Indians, held on the shore of 
Spirit Lake, about one and one-half miles from the town 
of Spirit Lake, closed to-day. This has been one of the 
most pleasant and congenial meetings that the Indians 
have ever held, and not an unpleasant matter came up 
to mar the pleasure of any one in attendance. This 
annual meeting is not for the purpose of seeing how 
many entries can be had, but for the good time as 
well as for a successful meet, and all those in attendance 
this year surely had one of the most pleasant outings of 
their lives. The pow-wow and dance on Tuesday night 
was one of the features of the meet. High Chief 
Marshall introduced each Indian, telling why and how 
each Indian got his name. This was sure funny for 
the many spectators, but a little hard on some of the 
braves. 
At the business meeting the following officers were 
elected: Tom A. Marshall, High Chief; W. R. Crosby, 
Vice High Chief; C. W. Budd, Secretary and Treasurer. 
The following new members were taken in the tribe: 
Alex. Mair, O. R. Dickey, C. C. Collins, D. W. Aker, 
Warren Beckwith, H. Dunham, H. E. Winans, C. Hol¬ 
lingsworth, F. K. Eastman. Wm. Ridley, Dr. B. A. Mil¬ 
ler, D. C. Bragsted, LI. W. Vietmeyer, John Noel and 
W. S. McGill. 
A resolution of thanks was tendered the Chamberlin 
Cartridge and Target Co. and their representative, 
Brother Charles, for courtesies extended the Indians. 
The traps and targets sure threw and flew fine. 
Indian Burnside, of the Orleans Hotel, did himself 
proud in looking after his guests. 
Mr. L. W. Rue, of Jackson, Minn., won the Mallory 
cup after a hot shoot with Gilbert and Taylor. 
A good number of the Indians brought their squaws 
and pappooses, which is one of the pleasant features of 
the meet. Scores follow:

Royersford Gun Club. 
The Labor Day shoot was eminently successful, there 
being twenty-four satisfied shooters out of the same 
number of entries. H. E. Buckwalter shot in his true 
form and made high gun with 145 out of 150, getting six 
more birds than J. M. Hawkins, who was first profes¬ 
sional. Allen Hill finished with third honors and 135 
breaks. 
J. Mowell Hawkins is sure a good scorekeeper and 
writes a jolly good hand.

Atlantic City Gun Club. 
Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 2. —We had two full 
squads out to-day, and some good scores were made. 
Norwood Johnson, of Pittsburgh, led on averages, finish¬ 
ing up with three straights. C. G. Westcoat, of Lees¬ 
burg, Fla., was next with 10 down out of 150. All of the 
local shooters also did well. Powers finished with 5 
down out of SO, and Cook and Westcoat also shot well.
