Springfield Shooting Club. 
Springfield, Sept. 4.—The numerous shoots dotting 
the map of New England on Labor Day kept down the 
attendance here to-day, but the quantity of shooters 
easily was made up for in the quality of the work done 
by the thirty who faced the traps. More perfect weather 
for both shooter and spectator could not be asked. 
Sixteen gunners went through the entire program of 
200 birds, and the heap of dust behind the traps repre¬ 
sented 4000 targets. 
High amateur average ran into a tie at 185 between 
IT. E Burgin and Chester E. Doten. In the shoot-off 
Burton won out. For third, Louis Misterly tied with 
A. M. Arnold at 175. The shoot-off went to Misterly. 
High professional was Bill Blood (and they said he 
couldn’t come back), with 190, after very pretty shooting. 
George Lewis made 187, and Ernest Sawin 179. 
The trade was represented by W. D. Blood and T. C. 
Montgomery, Stevens Arms and Tool Co.; D. T. Cow- 
ing, Lefever;

Longmont Gun Club. 
Longmont, Colo., Sept. 4.—An unusually good pro¬ 
gram was offered here to-day. Regular ten 15-target 
events, two special 25-target events, and one 15-target 
special. Twenty-five guns were in line, and good scores 
ruled. 
High average was shared by L. P. Lawton and Wm. 
Thomas with 205 out of 215. Third man, E. L. Kittley, 
had 199. Thomas won both added events on 25 birds, 
making 24 and 25 respectively. He also tied Lawton in 
the special event by breaking his 15 straight. 
J. L. Day shot prettily, making 209 for the high pro¬ 
fessional average, and breaking straight in the two 25- 
target events. He got a bad start, losing two birds in 
the first event, one in the second, and one in the sixth, 
breaking straight in all the rest. In the 15-target special 
he lost one target. G Burt was second with 185, and 
\Ym. Bowman third with 181.
