O. L. GARL, Secretary. 
Cosmopolitan Gun Club. 
Manila, P. I., July 19, 1914. 
By the Spectator. 
F. H. Thompson was high gun for the day at the big 
Cosmopolitan Gun Club shoot today. The shoot was for 
fifty birds, the added handicap system being adopted 
for the day with 10 birds at 16 yards per frame. 
Five of the contestants made a total of 45 and were 
forced to shoot off the tie. The result was that Mr. 
Piatt, who broke 29 birds, got the cup. Roy Squires 
drew second prize and “Eddie” Sherman captured the 
third prize. Mr. Martin carried off fourth. In the 
snipe shoot, Lieut. Hodges carried off the trophy, 
breaking 18 and 25 with a 20-gauge gun—which is some 
shooting. Charlie Squires was high gun for the 20- 
gauge, making 64 per cent.

Dupont Trap Shooting Club. 
Wilmington, Del., September 5, 1914. 
Several of Delaware’s best gunners were either at Day- 
ton, Ohio or en route there for the Grand American 
Handicap, so the attendance at the DuPont Trapshoot¬ 
ing Club today was not quite up to the usual mark. 
Notwithstanding this fact more 25 straights were regis¬ 
tered than for many a day. The conditions were per¬ 
fect, and those who attended the shoot felt well repaid. 
The main events were contests for the Coleman du- 
Pont sterling silver spoons in each of the five classes, 
A, B, C, D and E. As usual, the spoon events were 
shot over two traps, 15 targets over trap one and 10 
targets over trap two. Not a tie was recorded and so 
no shoot offs were necessary. The following were the 
scores made in the spoon events: 
CLASS A. 
Stanley Tuchton .. 22—25 
W. A. Simonton . 21 
N. K. Smith . 21 
J. T. Roberson . 21 
L. L. Jarrell . 19 
C. T. Martin . 18 
E. M. Ross . 18 
CLASS B. 
Isaac Turner . 25— 25 
W. G. Wood . 24 
William Coyne . 22 
V. duPont . 21 
C. Leedom . 21

In the spoon events Isaac Turner and W. C. Corey 
showed to the best advantage, as they both turned in 
perect scores. J. W. Hathaway, a new member of the 
club got away in fine shape and scored 21 out of 25 
which was easily the best score in Class D. He is now 
a candidate for Class B. 
In the events at 100 targets, J. T. Skelly showed to the 
best advantage. Mr. Skelly turned in a card of 97 out 
of 100, a very excellent score indeed, and made a run 
of 74 consecutive breaks. This is the best work done 
by Mr. Skelly at the local club for many weeks, and 
indicates a very decided return to form on his part. 
Had he been shooting in a registered tournament he 
would have won a Hercules half century trophy. 
Another shooter who was looking them over in 
fine shape was Isaac Turner who broke 49 out of 50. 
Mr. Turner faltered on his thirty-fifth target, which he 
dusted badly, and by some it was thought he had broken 
it. However, a percentage of 98 is one to be proud 
of, and Ike was well satisfied.

J. T. Skelly . 97—100 
W. A. Joslyn . 94
