Arkansas State Sportsmen's Association. 
The programme of the Arkansas State Sportsmen’s As¬ 
sociation tournament, which will be held at Little Rock, 
Ark., June 8, 9 and 10, will be the most attractive ever 
offered by this organization in its nineteen years of ex¬ 
istence. There will be 31000 added money, which should 
assure a good attendance of both State and non-resident 
shooters. 
The first day’s programme consists of eight events— 
four at 15 targets, two at 20 targets and two at 50 targets, 
the latter being a handicap. Twenty-five dollars will be 
added to each of these events, making $200 for the day. 
On the second day the programme consists of twelve 
events, eight at 15 targets and four at 20 targets. There 
will be $30 added to each of the 15-bird events and $35 
to the 20-bird events, which brings the total amount of 
added money up to $380 for the day. This programme 
will be repeated on the third day with the same amount 
of added money; and the total for the three days is $960. 
The remaining $40 has been set aside for low average 
money, and will be divided among the six low guns, as 
follows: $10, $8, $7, $5, $5, and $5. 
A high average fund will be created by taxing each 
contestant 25 cents each day, and the money derived 
from this source will be divided among the three high 
guns on a basis of 50, 30 and 20 per cent. 
The first 50-target event on the first day will be the 
individual championship contest; only members of the 
Arkansas State Sportsmen’s Association will be eligible 
to compete for the trophy in this or the handicap which 
follows, but all can compete for the money. 
On the second day the three-man team championship 
event is scheduled, and on the third day the two-man 
team championship will be decided. Each of these will 
be at 25 targets per man, entrance price of targets. These 
constitute the state events, but all others are open. 
Trade representatives can shoot for targets only. 
The purses will be divided Rose-Jack Rabbit system, 
and there will be four moneys in the 15-target events. 
ratio 5, 4, 3 and 2, and five moneys in the 20i-target 
events, ratio 6, 5, 4, 3 and 2. 
For further particulars and programmes address Paul 
R. Litzke, Secretary Arkansas State Sportsmen’s Asso¬ 
ciation, No. 523 East Eighth street. Little Rock, Ark. 
Columbus Gun Club. 
Columbus, O.—Mrs. James T. Miller, of Marble Cliff, 
died very suddenly of heart failure, at the family resi¬ 
dence, on Wednesday evening. May 19, about 8 o’clock. 
Her funeral took place Saturday, May 22, at 2 P. M. 
The officers and members of the Columbus Gun Club 
were shocked to hear of Mrs. Miller’s death, and reso¬ 
lutions were passed providing for the sending of a letter 
of condolence and floral design. Mr. J. T. Miller is a 
member of the Columbus Gun Club, and while not an 
active one, has shown great interest in the affairs of the 
club, and has done a great many nice things for it. 
The boys have all expressed their sincere and heartfelt 
sympathy for Mr. Miller and his family. Saturday’s 
shoot was postponed until Wednesday, May 26. 
Programmes for the Ohio State shoot have been rnailed 
to shooters all over the State, and from the gist of 
correspondence; and daily inquiries received, it looks as 
though we were to have a splendid shoot, with a record- 
breaking attendance. The programme is so arranged that 
it will go along smoothly and without a jar. The Colum¬ 
bus Gun Club will endeavor to make it as pleasant as 
possible to all strangers and friends within our gates. 
The programme was gotten up with a view of pleasing 
the majority. If you don’t like it, come anyway, and 
you may have a better time than you anticipate. The 
medium shooter is taken care of by the Squier money- 
back system, recognized as one of the fairest propositions 
ever offered. The good shots will take care of them¬ 
selves, as all surplus money from the Squier system will 
go to high guns, divided Interstate Association division 
of surplus money. The special merchandise event on the 
first day will be worth a look, as all the prizes will be 
on exhibition at the club house, where you can take your 
choice. Fifty dollars to ten low guns. Fine prize for the 
greatest event of the tournament, which will be well 
worth coming miles to see, the Ohio amateur champion¬ 
ship, 200 targets per man and a fine prize to winner. 
Don’t miss the greatest shoot of the year. Hotel ac¬ 
commodations, street car service, and all appoir.'fments 
of the club and club house, unexcelled.

for the first time in a year got a win with 18 for the 
Hunter Arms Co. medal. . 
No. 2 was at 15 singles, handicap, misses as breaks, 
for the Du Pont trophy. O’Connor, Blandford, Fisher

shoot-off in No. 3. . tv ^ c

the shoot-off in No. 5 Blandford broke 6, which gave 
him the cup. The next prize shoot will be held on May
