Mountain View Gun Club. 
Troy, N. Y., Jan. 1. —The following scores were made 
at the New Year’s Day tournament. A cold wind blew 
across the field, making it very uncomfortable for the 
shooters, also interfering with good scores. Sanders, of 
Albany, was high gun. Messrs. Darton and Hill, trade 
representatives, paid us a visit, while the genial George 
R. Ginn acted as cashier. 
After the regular events were finished a number of the 
boys indulged in some practice. Scores:

New 
York 
Athletic Club 
Travers Island, N. Y., Jan. 2.—Twenty-three gunners 
faced the traps to-day, the holiday events being shot as 
the traps were closed for regular competition yesterday. 
We had a number of visitors with us, among them 
former champion J. H. Hendrickson, who hails from 
the Bergen Beach Gun Club, and J. A. Henderson, from 
Wykagyl Club. 
The strong light reflected by the water, and a puffy 
wind, made shooting rather difficult, and the scores suf¬ 
fered, especially in the earlier events, the conditions get¬ 
ting better later in the afternoon. 
Six events were run off, three of which went to Dr. De 
Wolf, who was in fine form, and as a result now joins 
that small and select circle of scratch men. 
First event, practice, at scratch. 
Second event, January cup: Leg won by De Wolf, 
assisted by 3 targets after shoot-off with Greiff and 
Schauffler. 
Third event, holiday cup: Leg won by Billings, making 
bis third win and giving him possession of the cup. 
Fourth event, Sauer gun: Leg won by De Wolf with 
full score. 
Fifth event, Stevens gun: Leg also won by De Wolf 
after tie with Elias, both falling down badly on shoot- 
off; score, 18 and 17 respectively. 
Sixth event, special trophy: Tie between Crowe and 
Pelham, with no result after two shoot-offs, and it was 
then so dark it had to be postponed.

.22 CALIBER REPEATING RIELE 
The Model I9O6 Handling Three Cartridges

as Winchester rifles of larger caliber, which means that it is accurate, 
reliable and well finished. It takes down easily and packs in a 
small compass, making it a handy adjunct to any sportsman’s 
kit. The list price is only $10.50 and it retails for less.
