Smith Gun Club. 
Newark, N. J., Jan. 13.—At the Smith Gun Club 
grounds to-day a fair turnout of shooters was on hand, 
and the scores made were up to the standard. W. Has- 
singer was high gun man with 95 out of 125 breaks to 
his credit. He was followed closely by Louis Colquit 
with 93 out of 125. J. Baldwin came in third with 88 out 
of 125. Considerable interest was aroused over a 50- 
bird match between H. Page and R. Trimpi. Both men 
broke 14 out of the first string of 25. In the second 
string Trimpi took the lead by breaking 15 against 14 
by Page. Several interesting sweepstake events were 
also shot off. The following were the scores made:

\\ ILMINGTON, Del., Jan. 13.—Chilblains and frost-bites 
took charge of the shoot here to-day, and kept the entry 
hst pretty low. J. B. McHugh was top gun with 
w out of 100. He won the Coleman du Pont spoon in 
Class A, with 23 out of 25. The Class B spoon was 
carried off by J. W. Mathews, with a score of 21 out of

his quota of 25 targets, laid claim to the Class C sterling

Bergen Beacb Gun Club. 
Once more the clay pigeon cracksmiths of the Bergen 
Beach Gun Club found it impossible to decide tneir 
weekly sliding distance handicap on the 13th inst. The 
intense cold made even the most enthusiastic gunner 
seek the shelter of the shooting lodge and hug the warm 
stove that was kept at summer’s heat. However, there 
v/ere many strings of 25 targets decided. The best runs 
v/ere made by D. Sauer (a new member), J. Voorhees 
and J. S. Simonson. The scores:

Elkton Gun Club. 
Elkton, Md., Jan. 11.—Last night we completed the 
organization of a gun club here, and if enthusiasm 
counts for anything, 'it will be a real success. The offi¬ 
cers elected are all trapshooters of no little ability, and 
understand the game of management thoroughly. They 
are: William Stephens, President; John A. Morgan, 
\'ice-President; Harvey J. Scott, Secretary; Jacob Ray- 
nolds, Treasurer. The members of the club, besides the 
officers, are: Samuel Kink, Albert Alexander, Harry 
Taylor, Harvey Reynolds, Albert Constable, Reginald 
Constable, Morris Strickland, Edward Morgan, Ralph 
Morgan, Herbert Morgan, D. J. Ayers, David Lindsay, 
Charles Dilks, Henry B. Mitchell, Robert J. McCauley, 
Joshua Clayton, Cleaver Potts, William McDowell, Nor¬ 
wood Atkinson, Alfred H. Davis, Harry D. Carrett, 
Myron Miller, Scott Green, Albert Johnson, Harland 
Johnson, Samuel Simmons, James Naylor, Dr. John 
Mackall, Lewis 'Vansant, Clarence Diebert, Wirt Rou- 
chelle. Noble Heath, George Heath and Hooper Heath. 
Columbus Gun Club. 
Columbus, O., Jan. 12.—Clarence Coburn was high 
amateur. John R. Taylor high professional. Eighteen 
shooters braved the blizzard Friday to attend the regu¬ 
lar monthly shoot. It sure took nerve to come out in 
such weather, and then shoot all day. After each event 
was shot every one sought comfort before the big log 
fire in the club room. 
The Webster system was used and proved O.K. At 
the end of the program there was found to be $21.75 
for average money. Coburn got first; Cooper, second; 
H. E. Smith, third; Jones, fourth; Le Noir and Fisher 
fifth. 
The management wants to thank one and all for 
coming. We are sorry to announce the death of one of 
the Asheville shooters—John L. Stevenson,, who died 
the first of the week. He will be missed very much. He 
was universally liked by all, and a good shot. Scores: ■

Independent Gun Club. 
Holmesburg Junction, Pa., Jan. 13.—Fourteen cold- 
proof, courageous gunners bucked the northwester to¬ 
day and journeyed to the Junction to run into a little 
surprise uncanned by J. F. Pratt, an ebony-hued pony, 
who was given a handicap of 12 because nothing great 
was expected of him—and he furnished enough excite¬ 
ment to warm up the whole meet. Dr. W. H. Matthews 
had the 100-target match pretty safely packed up, with 
6 birds to spare at the end of the third string, when 
Pratt ran the last string with only one miss, beating 
the doctor out by one scaler. As runner-up, tbe doctor 
took the silver dipper, he also was high on actual num¬ 
ber of breaks with
