he crumpled up and came down—a dead

THE FARTHEST NORTH TRAPSHOOTING 
CLUB UNDER THE FLAG. 
Gun Club at Nome, Alaska, Holds Tournament. 
November 18th, 1914. 
Editor Forest and Stream: 
Wonder how many people fully realize the 
vast extent of the growth and spread of trap¬ 
shooting. We have just been advised through 
their enthusiastic and hardworking president, 
Dr. W. D’Arcy Chace, that the Nome Gun Club, 
of Nome, Alaska, which is close to the Arctic 
Circle, has completed the most active season in 
its history, and wound up by wiring to “The 
States” for an Automatic Trap. During past 
seasons the club has competed for Du Pont Gun 
Club trophies, which have helped materially in 
keeping up the interest, and next season they 
want to hold a registered tournament and say 
they have some men up there who are anxious 
to win a Du Pont Long Run Trophy. 
The newspaper account of their final shoot for 
the season reads: 
“A large and enthusiastic group of gun lovers 
turned out on Sunday to witness the shoot of the 
Nome Gun Club at their Steadman avenue 
grounds. The weather conditions were favorable 
and a most enjoyable time was had. Walter 
Johnson won the coat, manufactured by Neu- 
stadter Bros, of Portland, Oregon, and donated 
by Geo. E. Lomen & Co., also the cartridges given 
by Darling & Dean. Grant Jackson walked away 
with the fine razor from the Board of Trade 
Barber Shop. Dr. Chace became the possessor 
of the knife given by Carleton & Melin. McLeod, 
of the Fairhaven Water Co., now wears the 
handsome cravat donated by Pinkie Daniels of 
the Board of Trade restaurant. Ira Rank won 
the gloves offered by Doc. Kemp. Frank Fletcher 
will treat from the decanter of The Nevada’s 
Monogram. Ed. Burroughs will follow suit from 
that given by The Eagle. Otto Van Sickle now 
owns an electric curling iron donated by the 
Seward Pen. Power Co. Russ Downing won the 
bottle of Johnnie Walker offered by himself and 
also got the big doughnut given by John J. Mey¬ 
ers. Dr. Chace made the best score of the day 
and won the Du Pont trophy for 1914. Lomen 
Bros, were in evidence and took a number of 
good views of the crowd and the shooters, which 
will be highly prized by all who were present.” 
It is worthy of note that mail addressed Octo¬ 
ber 16th reached us November 12th, which will 
give an idea of the length of time it takes to 
make the journey to the Farthest North Gun 
Club under the Flag. 
Thought some of your readers would be in¬ 
terested in this account.

INTERCOLLEGIATE TOURNAMENT. 
Harvard Wins College Shoot Handily. 
While Harvard students were lighting their 
cigars with Yale football coin, the backers of her

other college kale around the traps. Harvard 
cleaned up in the annual intercollegiate clay tar¬ 
get event with nine to spare over Princeton, who 
in turn hung it on Yale by thirty-five saucers, 
the latter taking it out on Dartmouth with five 
to spare. Princeton had the honor of showing 
high gun, this being held by Johnson with eighty- 
three. High man for Harvard was Cunningham 
with eighty-one; Yale’s topper was Capt. Barrett 
with a destroyal of eighty. Alexander led the

NEW YORK ATHLETIC CLUB. 
A. Elliott Ranney Wins Scratch Event. 
Pelham Manor, N. Y., Nov. 21. 
Glen Island, across from the traps, looked as 
bleak as Greenland to-day, but at that the entry 
list was pretty good. Events spread themselves 
pretty well about. A. Elliott Ranney got away

this he took the distance event with 20 from 19 
yards. A. B. Hubbell sauntered off with limbs
