Analostan Gun Cluh 
Washington, D. C., April 7. —The officers elected for 
the ensuing year follow: I’resident, C. S. Wilson; Vice- 
President, Dr. W. D. Monroe; Treasurer, Dr. A. B. 
Stine; Secretary, Miles Taylor; Captain, S. A. Luttrell; 
Trustees, M. D. Hogan, R. P. Hawes, Dr. B. L. Taylor. 
The club emerged from its chrysalis state on the 6th 
and held the opening shoot. Twenty-five members were 
present. O. B. George, one of our old-time members 
reported and was enrolled for the season. E. W. Ford 
joined the club, and scored 89 out of his 100, and feels 
that he can do better with his pump. Frank Huseman, 
another new member, who has had no experience at 
target work, also made a creditable record for a be¬ 
ginner. The old-timers were on the firing line, and 
from tbe way they started out it will not be long until 
they get their "batting eye.” 
The officers are figuring on erecting a more commodius 
club house. Following are the scores:
