Mountain View Gun Club. 
Troy, N. Y., Jan. 16.—Zero weather prevailed here 
to-day and was the means of keeping a number of the 
boys away. * 
The third leg for the Albany cup was shot for to-day 
and was won by Milliman, he shooting from the 19yd. 
mark and breaking 41 out of 50. This contest is attract¬ 
ing the boys and great interest is being taken in the 
same. 
One of to-day’s features was the race between Roberts 
and Sanders, who shot at 75 targets each. Roberts was 
declared the winner by 2 targets. 
The club has decided to cancel the tournament for 
Feb. 22, but will hold a two-day tournament during April 
or May, and at which $150 will be added to sweepstakes.

Indi&napolis Gun Club. 
Indianapolis, Ind.—Jimmie Bell, of St. Louis, had an 
inning at the Indianapolis Gun Club last Saturday after¬ 
noon. Jan. 16, that will long be remembered. When he 
got through with the locals they did not look much 
better than a'bunch of scattered cripples. It was a 
most disagreeable day for target shooting—cold, windy, 
and cloudy, with the ground covered with snow—and 
nobody would have thought of going out to the club 
grounds for any purpose other than to keep some com¬ 
petitor from gaining a vantage point in the members’ 
trophy contest by reason of a sheer default on their 
part. Nobody knew that Bell was going to be in town, 
and if they had they would not have suspicioned that 
he would shoot like a demon under such weather con¬ 
ditions as were prevailing, else they would all stayed at 
home, where they could have been comfortable. He 
shattered 47 out of the 50 targets in the trophy shoot, 
and did it in a manner that indicated that they were 
dead easy. He smashed them right square in the nose, 
just like a target ought to be hit. But no one else 
could do it. He gave this exhibition from 16yds. In the 
next event in which he participates he will have an 
opportunity to work out at 18yds. The scores were: 
Bell 47, Dixon (18) 43, Denny (18) 40, Hymer 40, Neigh¬ 
bors 40, Voris (18) 43, Roland 39, and Parry (18) 37.

shooting follow:

NOTES. 
Young is getting back into form. 
Cook and Wescoat had it nip and tuck, but Cook won 
by 6. 
Anderson was trying out a new gun and did steady 
work. 
Smith was on the sick list and could not stand but one 
event. 
We are negotiating with Woodbury for a series of 
shoots for the championship of South Jersey. Perhaps 
Haddonfield and South Camden would like to join in. 
Let us hear from you either five or ten-man teams. 
Pennell felt brave and came out again for more scalps.
