The “OLD RELIABLE” Brands 
Newton Gun Club. 
Newton, N. J., Oct. 21. —Seventeen took part in to¬ 
day’s shoot, the rain preventing the Newark boys from 
coming in their auto. Mr. Barney Stanley was the only 
man that braved the rain, and he made good with 90 
per cent, for the day. The main attraction was the State 
championship race between A. B. Brickner, of this 
place, and Chas. T. Day, Jr., of Newark, N. J. 
Brickner. 24 23 —^47 Day. 20 23—43 
Stanley, Morford and Brickner tied for high average. 
Will County Gun Club. 
Lockport, Ill., Oct. IS.—Notwithstanding the big 
noise over the Eads Bridge down St. Louis way, there 
was a goodly shooting of trapshooters at our shoot 
meeting for the depletion of the bluerock supply, held 
here to-day-—thirty-seven were there. Kneussl not only 
was high gun for the full program with 141 out of 150, 
but he made a run of 78, during which he was called 
upon to take some mighty hard chances. He tied high 
professional Graham in his total. Second honors were 
worn away by T. E. Graham with 140, while third man 
was B. Smith, three behind. None of the professionals 
except Graham did any shooting worthy of mention.

Buffalo Audubon Club. 
Buffalo, N. Y., Oct. 21. —“Shooting days” play hob 
with the attendance at club shoots these days. Many of 
the boys would rather go afield than stay to smash mud 
pies. Nevertheless, we had nineteen members out to¬ 
day, and over 2000 targets were trapped. Fair scores were 
made under favorable conditions.
