PETERS .22 CALIBER SEMI-SMOKELESS CARTRIDGES have won more honors in National 
Tournaments and Championship Matches during the past 15 years than all other makes put together. 
The evidence as to the actual shooting superiority of the P brand is overwhelming.

Mobile Gun Club Tournament. 
Tom Cassetty (“Rabbit Eyes”), back in the game, is 
an awfully good thing for the game, and the U. M. C. 
Co., are to be congratulated on securing his services. 
Rabbit’s many Mobile friends wish him unbounded 
success and will do everything' in their power to help 
him along and keep him forever and ever with us and 
the shooting game. 
Walter Huff, as smiling and good-natured as ever, 
ran in on us with two wild turkeys and treated a number 
of his friends to an elegant dinner in the Vineyard of 
Cawthon Hotel. Come again, Walter, with or without 
turkeys; you are always welcome. 
Fred Stone, of Mongomery & Stone Theatrical Co., 
shot with us part of the last day, and shot well, too. 
Fred dealt Walter Huff an awful blow during the per¬ 
formance Friday night, by announcing from the stage 
that Walter had said he never missed a target, and that 
all targets scored him as lost were made of tin and 
therefore wouldn’t break. Walter got even, though by 
making Stone furnish a number of passes to his show 
which was thoroughly enjoyed. 
We are in receipt of a letter from Houston, Tex., 
signed Sunny South Handicap, telling of a shipment 
by express or otherwise (the otherwise a cattle car) one 
Nick Arie, and requesting that immediately after the 
shoot we tag him for home and see that he got away 
safely. This Nick won all our money and a silver loving 
cup, and we understand went home in a Pullman, so he 
could sleep with his cup under his pillow, thereby keep¬ 
ing his running mate, Ben Schwartz, from stealing 
same. 
Rollo (Pop) Heikes is always a welcome visitor to 
Mobile, not only by the present-day shooters, but by 
all living members of old-time clubs. 
Mr. H. P. Voss, one of the best-known men in 
Mobile, and in his day (he is not old yet), one of the 
best shots, and still an authority on everything per¬ 
taining to guns and shooting, was so glad to see “Pop” 
that he quit his business and refereed for us all of one 
day. 
Guy Ward says that since he has been with Stevens 
Arms Co., it is next to impossible to keep a gun, as 
some one will borrow same to shoot in two or three 
events and then demand that he sell them that very 
gun. I don’t blame the buyer, as a gun once used by 
Cuy Ward must be well trained; but I pity poor Guy, 
who has to wait until he can get another gun from 
the factory. 
We have known Jake (“Nigger”) Gibs a long while, 
but this is the first time he has honored our city with 
his presence. Now he wants to purchase the Cawthon 
Hotel and spend the rest of his days in the Vineyard. 
If he can’t succeed in this, he promises to visit us just 
as often as his company will allow, and maybe some 
few times without their knowledge. 
Dr. Lawson, of Greensboro, Ala., a bank president, 
therefore a law-abiding citizen, wouldn’t shoot with us 
on the second day because he unintentionally killed a 
white flyer target and a sea gull at the same time. We 
promise to not let this occur again, as we are very fond 
of the doctor, and want him with us often. 
We had a prize for low professional (sack horse feedj. 
It was stipulated that the winner of this prize must 
carry same on his back from the shooting grounds to 
the Battle House, a distance of about five blocks. 
Clyde Hunter, of Dupont high explosive fame, really 
won this honor, but being small of build, and really 
not in the sporting division of Du Pont’s big business, 
the prize was awarded Mr. C. M. Brady, of Union 
Arms Co., who balked on “toting the sack” so far and 
gave it away to a local horse owner.

Birmingham Gun Club. 
Birmingham, Ala., Feb. 17.—There was a good attend¬ 
ance at the regular shoot of the Birmingham Gun Club 
this week, and good shooting was done. R. R. Skinner 
and James Hillman broke 95 of their 100, closely fol¬ 
lowed by John Fletcher. H. C. Ryding was high on 
doubles. Mrs. O. L. Garl’s gun broke down when she 
attempted to shoot doubles after a good start. Some 
new shooters are shooting very well for beginners. 
Programs are being printed this week for the grand 
Birmingham handicap, to be held April 8-10. Scores 
were made as follows:

’•’Professional. 
Feb. IG.—There were seventeen shooters at the weekly 
shoot of the Birmingham Gun Club this afternoon, and 
considering the cold wind which made the targets very 
difficult to hit, some good scores were made. John 
Warren and James Hillman shot high percentage, closely 
followed by John Lambeth and Gentry Hillman, Ira 
Armstrong and Gentry Hillman had a race on to see 
which could blow the targets into black smoke the quick¬ 
est and quit about even. Mr. Pinkard and Cornwall, 
Jr., were trying the targets for the first time, and made 
splendid scores. J. K. Warren is trying out a new gun, 
and with that lightning speed of his there is nothing 
left of the targets but a black smoke. Scores follow:
