Highland Gun Club. 
Edge FIill, Pa., Jan. 30.—Thirty-four valiant con¬ 
testants^ faced the wintry weather at the club’s shoot to¬ 
day. Visitors of national renown were Fred Gilbert, of 
Sjiirit Lake, la.; Walter Huff, of Macon, Ga.; Art. 
Killain, of St. Louis; D. D. Gross, Kansas City, and J. 
T. Skelly, Wilmington, Del. Killain was high with 95 
out of 100 , which might reasonably be conceded as swift 
work in the company of such distinguished veterans. 
The prize, a silver soup ladle, for which only amateurs 
could compete, was annexed by Tom Tansey as a part 
of his personal belongings. Straight scores were con¬ 
spicuously absent, though Killain made two, which in 
this matter placed his name high above all the rest.

although the sharp, wintry wind and cold temperature

No. 1, was won by Wm. Peschman with a total of 22 
out of 25. Biddle, 21, was second. Rexon and Thomas, 
with 19 each, were tied for third. Biddle was the winner 
in the spoon shoot for Class .V marksmen, and Newkirk
