East Millstone Gun Club. 
East Milestone, N. J., Feb. 27.—The East Millstone 
Gun Club held its seventh annual Washington’s Birth¬ 
day shoot under the most trying weather conditions 
one could imagine. The shooters never knew whgt 
minute they would be pushed off the platform by the 
gentle zephyrs blowing between 70 and 90 miles an 
hour. Notwithstanding the high wind, twenty-seven 
shooters faced the traps. High professional turned o.ut 
to be H. S. Welles with 138 out of 200. Pligh amateur 
guns were as follows: R. Morgan, Bergen Beach Gun 
Club, 137 out of 200. W. T. Laird, home club, 129 out 
of 200, and E. H. Wyckoff, home club, 128 out of 200. 
A new county champion turned up in the person of 
Elmer Gardner, of Bernardsville. This event was the 
most hotly contested of the day, and there were ten 
contestants. Gardner, shooting in superb form, broke 
39 out of his 50 targets. Until within a few targets of 
the close, C. E. Welsh, of the home club, shot him a 
close race, breaking 35 out of 50. The boys were gratified 
to see so many shooters on the most disagreeable holi¬ 
day in years. They have already a petition in circula¬ 
tion to have Feb. 22 clear, still and W'arm next year.

Trap at Palm Beacb. 
Palm Beach, Fla., March 2. —Owing to the rainy * 
weather this season, we had to postpone six of our cup 
shoots, and the event to-day has been the first cup 
shoot we have held.

Brokaw won the cup and $30; Keech won second 
money, .$15; Gates won third. The birds were very 
fast, and more than 15 of the missed birds were blown 
over the bounds, owing to the high east wind, which 
blew directly into the faces of the shooters. The grand 
stand was well filled with visitors.
