D. Sayre 18, John H. Emanuel, Jr. 17. 
First and second prizes won by President Towne and 
C. M. Camp respectively. The prizes were two beauti¬ 
ful medals, on which the names of both gentlemen will 
appear hereafter. Mr. Towne and Mr. Camp were ap¬ 
plauded by the spectators, and the finish was a very 
close one. Mr. Camp missed his 25th bird, which would 
have tied President Towne.

SOO targets at end of month:

this season. 
Most of our gunners are using the Daly single-barrel 
shotgun. There are only three gunners using double- 
barrel guns. E. H. Lott was shooting his new single- 
barrel gun for the first time on Saturday; he shot very 
well. Lott is the most accurate shot at the Marine and 
Field traps. Geo. H. Bender, Supt. 
Northern Kentucky Gun Club. 
A FEW members gathered at the grounds on March 10, 
and for the first time in several weeks there was a little 
something doing in the way of smashing the clays. The 
weather in this section has been prohibitive of out- 
cioor sport for two or three weeks. The contestants 
generally shot up to their average. Woodbury has been 
hibernating all winter, but came out to-day and started 
in to prepare for the State championship shoot at 
Lexington this spring. Flammerschmidt was high gun, 
missing but 8 targets out of 125, and breaking 96 in the 
last 100. Capt. Dameron gave a nice race for first 
honors, breaking 93 out of 100. In the last 50 he shot 
like old times, losing but 2 targets. Irwin is still ex¬ 
perimenting a little, and does not put up the work he 
has done in the past; he shot nearer to his old form 
in the last 50 targets, but was still several targets away 
from his high mark. Gould shoots a few occasionally, 
but has had no time to keep in practice. He is on for 
a match with J. B. C. on March 17 at 50 targets. The 
club officers are preparing a program for a season open¬ 
ing shoot, which they say will be very attractive, and 
will contain several new features that ought to bring out 
a crowd. There will be inducements for the experts as 
well as the 85 per cent, men, and every one is invited 
to attend.

Meadow Springs Gun Club, 
Philadelphia, Pa., March 9. —Thirty-two gunners 
entered in the banquet shoot and more than double this 
number sat down to the festive board in the evening.

with 66 out of 75. It required two shoot-oflfs to decide

Cleveland Gun Club. 
Cleveland, O., March 3.—The club shoot of the 
Cleveland Gun Club, held Saturday afternoon, March 2, 
was somewhat of a live wire, fourteen shooters putting 
up as much shooting as a little tournament and having 
everything to themselves. The weather conditions were 
not ideal for trapshooting, the day being cold and dark, 
and many a shot went astray because the light was bad; 
but the light of the day was the guest we had with us, 
Mr. J. P. Blakeslee, better known as Jack, and Mr. Wm. 
Ambler, both members, but their first time to the 
grounds tor six months. Jack is the real thing, and when 
he meets Grant at the firing line there is something 
doing, and it’s fun for the bunch. But Jack went to the 
wrong side in the first 100. as Grant beat him by 3 tar¬ 
gets, breaking 86 out of 100 to Jack’s 83. But the race 
of the afternoon at all the events the president, Mr. 
Rogers, chased Jack and Grant to the tall timber on 
the home stretch by breaking 169 out of 200; Jack 167 
and Grant 165. This contest was not for $5,000, but just 
for the love of Mike, and the next will be when the 
boys get into condition. The February trophies were 
won by A. J. Stevens, first, and C. B. Genner, second.

March 10.—The regular weekly club contest of the 
Cleveland Gun Club, Cleveland, O., was held yesterday 
afternoon at Shooting Park, Stop 16, Mayfield road, and 
was somewhat of a shoot, fifteen target-breakers facing 
the traps, and some good scores were put up. C. E. 
Doolittle, one of the come-backs, handing in the high 
card for the day, 91 out of lOO. Very good. Come again, 
Charley. The next to this was A. J. Stevens with 86, 
who is a comer. Starting the year at 66 per cent, shows 
what a man can do when he gets down to business and 
knows what he wants. At this writing, I wish to an¬ 
nounce that the application of the Cleveland Gun Club 
to hold a registered tournament, May 30, has been ap¬ 
proved by the Interstate Association, and we ask our 
brother target-breakers to take notice of the same. 
In looking over the sporting papers, I notice that some 
of our native gun clubs are to hold tournaments the 
coming summer only a few miles from Cleveland, and 
they are .going to be up and doing something to draw 
the crowd. This is a splendid idea, and the way to 
make it a success is to be alive and get out among 
the other clubs that are holding shoots, and ex¬ 
tend your acquaintance with your brother sportsmen. 
Give them the glad hand and ask them to come and see 
you. Those who stay at home can’t expect others to 
come to see them. Don’t expect something for noth¬ 
ing. If the weather will be kind to us on April 3, the 
Cleveland Gi,tn Club will hold the Washington’s Birth¬ 
day tournament that was to be held Feb. 22, but was 
declared off on account of the weather conditions. This 
shoot is a Simon-pure amateur contest. Everybody gets 
some of the money and lots of fun, so don’t stay away 
and say you were sick, but come and give us the glad 
hand, and we will return the same to you when you 
are in need. Scores:
