One week earlier than originally scheduled will be held

10-11 instead of Oct. 17-18. 
R 
At Carlsbad, N. M., the Carlsbad Gun Club will hold 
a registered tournament on Oct. 9. Information from 
Secretary W. E. Smith. 
R 
A number of shooters have written about caribou 
shooting in Maine. There isn’t any. Had no action 
Been taken by the recent legislature, the season would 
liave opened October, 1911, but breeding conditions are 
so good that the last legislature extended the closed 
season to 1917. 
R 
Ed. Banks relieved the office force at the Westy 
Hogans’ shoot, of lots of question answering by getting 
out daily score and information cards. Each daily card, 
of a distinct color, gave space to fill in score and winner, 
as well as full particulars and rules governing each 
event. The rules governing the E. C. cup shoot were 
especially valuable, because of the recent change in 
conditions. 
R 
Harry W. Der.ny, who retires as secretary of the 
Trapshooters’ League of Indiana, has made a host of 
-friends among trapshooters and others interested in pro¬ 
moting trapshooting in America. Mr. Denny has served 
the Association honestly and courageously and always 
has seen to it that the sporting press received proper 
attention. We extend hearty thanks and good wishes to 
him and good wishes to his sucessor. 
R 
The big New Jersey event takes place next Wednesday, 
the 27th, when A. B. Brickner, of Newton, shoots Jim 
Wheaton, of Speedway Gun Club, of Newark, for the 
State championship. The passage at arms will be held 
at Newton. A team race at 50 birds also will be shot 
between Speedway and Newton. Trains leave New York 
on D., L. & W. R. R. at 8 A. M. and 11:45 A. M. 
This shoot will be well worth the half hour’s trip en¬ 
tailed. 
At the annual meeting of the Ossining Gun Club, held 
Sept. 11, the following officers were elected for the 
ensuing year: President, Franklin Brandreth; Vice-Pres¬ 
ident, J. Curry Barlow; Recording Secretary, John T. 
Hyland; Financial Secretary, S. Arthur Kipp; Treasurer, 
Amos Bedell; Captain, Chas. G. Blandford. Master of 
Rifle Range, John F. Jenkins. Directors: J. H. Moran, 
I. T. Washburn. The report of the treasurer showed 
the club to be in a good financial condition. The bi¬ 
monthly shoots will be resumed Sept. 23. 
R 
J. S. Day, a Peters Cartridge Company shooting rep¬ 
resentative, has been spending a few weeks in the State 
of Colorado, giving the trapshooters of that section an 
idea of the kind of work he did in 1910, when he won 
the official high amateur average for the year with the 
record-breaking percentage of 97.28. From Aug. 16 to 
Sept. 6 he shot in seven tournaments, scoring 1208 out of 
1250 singles and 181 out of 200 doubles. Included in this 
total is the score made Aug. 28 at Delta, Colo., 149 out 
of 150 singles and 49 out of 50 at doubles. This score of 
198 out of 200 stands as a world’s record, no previous 
amateur or professional having made such a score on 
200 targets, which included 25 pairs.

Dorchester Gun Club. 
Dorchester, Neb., Sept. 14.—The two days’ shoot 
ended here to-day wasn’t much for crowd, but it was 
voluminous in its enthusiasm. There were nineteen 
entrants, three of whom shot only three events all told. 
C. G. Gellatty took honors with 278 out of 300, followed 
by C. L. Richards, who made only one less, while John 
Gausman made 273 for third money. None of the pro¬ 
fessionals did shooting good enough to brag about. 
Geo. L. Carter made 272, beating C. L. Bates by one.
