straight grip. The length of pull is 14 inches, drop at comb 
1 ^ inches, and at heel 1 13-16 inches. The stock was worked

the physical requirements of the average shooter. The barrel Is 30 Inches long 
and handsomely matted on the top. Almost any dealer can show you one 
of these guns. It Is enthusiastically

Chicago Gun Club. 
Chicago, III., Feb. 22.—After one of the worst blizzards 
of the year, on Wednesday, the sun came out bright 
and clear this morning, .and the weather warmed up 
so that we had a splendid afternoon for our Washing¬ 
ton’s Birthday team shoot, in which twenty-eight shoot¬ 
ers took part, fourteen on each team, and we had a 
total of thirty-three shooters for the day. 
Doc May’s team put it over Shorty JefT’s team m all 
three events, winning the first event of 50 singles per 
man by a margin of 18 targets. Roth double events 
were close races, the first being won by three targets and 
the second by five. The rivalry between the two teams 
was quite keen, and the result of each squad’s total was 
eagerly awaited. _ 
Not the least interesting was the heavy work done 
by both captains, who were continually coaching the 
different members of their teams, and telling them just 
how to get the birds. 
A good number of excellent scores were made, espe¬ 
cially on the doubles, MacLachlan doing extra good on 
them, breaking 44 out of 25 pairs, and again breaking 
21 out of 12 pairs in an extra event in which Jeff also 
uruKc zj., , , , . - . , , 
Quite a number of shooters had their first trial at the 
doubles in events 2 and 3. Scores;

Feb. 25. — A field of thirty shooters was out to-day, de¬ 
spite the fact that it was dark and quite cold, with a 
raw wind blowing from the northeast, which made it 
quite uncomfortable when on the firing line. The 
wind played many pranks with the flying targets, and as 
a consequence high scores were the exception. Young 
stood at the head of the list in most of the events, 
breaking 24 out of 25 In practice. 47 out 50 in the club 
event, tying E. S. Graham with 19 out of 25 from 21yds., 
and also taking first place in the last event at doubles. 
Kammerer scored a total of 43 in the club event, while 
May, Goode, Shaw and M’inters each broke 42. The 
above were the leaders in Classes A and B, shooting 
at 50yd. targets. Phil Miller headed Classes C and D 
on the 40yd. targets. Goode. Jeff and Schultz each 
scored 22 in an extra event at 25 targets. Goode finishing 
up for the afternoon with 47 out of his last 50. Jeff 
with a score of 42 out of 50, had the best of a match for 
the lunches. May, Kammerer, Goode and Schultz also 
being iri on this race. Dr. Griffith found the strong 
wind quite a handicap for his 28-gauge. Winters, Selter 
and Hanrahan were visiting shooters who were in the 
city for the day, and came out to enjoy the day at the 
traps. The scores: 
‘Practice events. Nos. 9 and 10 were at 12 pairs each.
