Larchmont Y. C. 
The Saturday shooter, being at leisure on Sunday, be¬ 
comes a guest at Larchmont Yacht Club traps and makes 
some mighty interesting shooting for the members. Dr. 
Culver from N. Y. A. C., put one of these guest tricks 
over. He won the 15-target scratch prize and made W. 
J. Elias beat him in a tie for the vice-commodore 
trophy. Mr. Elias also made a leg to windward on the 
accumulative cup with 46 out of 50. Tom McCahill was 
there with all kinds of accuracy. He drew four out of 
the eight prizes offered, winning a limb on the Decem¬ 
ber cup, 10 targets scratch shoot, A. B. Alley trophy, 
and a special 25-target handicap. Stuart Scott was high 
gun with 106 for the day. C. \V. Chance and George 
Abbott shot excellently, although they got away with no 
emblems denoting the fact.

Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 16.—Johnson won a 501b. pig 
at the shoot here to-day, but the struggle home through 
mud and rain made the prize almost a penalty. In the 
middle of a deep yellow puddle Johnson stopped long 
enough to soliloquize: “This pig is dressed so he’s 
easier to carry than a live one, but I wish I wasn’t 
dressed, it would make going easier.” 
The drizzle made shooting very difficult. Other con¬ 
testants were Wakemann, Biddle, Pechmann, Horner, 
Lippincott and Holloway.
