The Result of Over e Century’s Experience 
Perfection in powder-making is only achieved by exercising the most 
scrupulous care in the selection and preparation of raw materials, 
employing skilled workmen exclusively, and using only the most 
improved modern mechanical equipment. 
This is the Du Pont method and accounts for the unequaled repu¬ 
tation among sportsmen enjoyed by the Du Pont brands of Smoke¬ 
less Shotgun Powders Two of these brands that are in high favor 
among shooters are 
**C. g. 5 . PAT.©**' 
(Bulk) 
(Bulk) 
Hard Grain—Smokeless—Uniform. Requires 
no special wadding to make it do its best. 
Loaded just as easily as Black Powder. “The 
Old Time Favorite.” 
A perfect shotgun powder with light recoil. 
Unlike other powders of light recoil, Schultze 
gives high velocity and remarkable patterns. 
These powders positively will not pit the gun barrels.

Wilmington Gun Club. 
The first merchandise shoot of the season at the Wil¬ 
mington Gun Club in South Wilmington proved suc¬ 
cessful. About thirty marksmen faced the traps. The 
weather conditions were perfect, and the clear blue sky 
as a background, made the “rocks” comparatively easy 
to see. 
State champion J. B. McHugh and J. G. Roberson 
led the field throughout. McHugh carried off honors in 
the special 25 target event, and Roberson took first prize 
in the merchandise shoot. 
In Class 1 Messrs. Roberson, Willis and I. Turner 
were the winners. Dr. Buckmaster, Messrs. Edmund- 
son, N. K. Smith and J. J. Magahern won the prizes 
donated for Class 2. Messrs. Robinson, Godwin, C. 
Buckmaster and E. H. Hawk took home the prizes for 
the third class. The prizes in Classes 4 and 5 were taken 
care of by Messrs. David, Dr. Betts, U. Jackson, C. E. 
Springer, J. Bradford, A. Hickman and J. Davis. 
The merchandise event was the feature of the day. 
Roberson, Willis, Turner, McHugh and Dr. Rumford 
tied with a score of 23 out of 25 targets. In the shoot- 
off Roberson qualified by outshooting the field and cap¬ 
tured first prize.
