shoot here to-day was one of the most successful in the 
club’s history. The attendance was large, with New

club within easy traveling radius had representation. N. 
M. Graham, of Oakland Golf Club, and R. B. Pell, of 
Manhasset Bay Y. C., tied for winners, each with a 
full score. Mr. Graham shot from a 25-bird handicap, 
while Mr. Pell had a start of 20. In actual breaks, H. 
M. Brigham, of Crescent A. C., was high with 92, fol¬ 
lowed by H. L. Hoyt, Jr., and W. S. Silkworth, each 
with 90. The day was good for target shooting with 
very little wind.

You can’t buy a safer, faster, harder, a more even shoot¬ 
ing or a better keeping load than Winchester “Leader” 
smokeless powder shotgun shells. For field, fowl or 
trap shooting, they are in a class by themselves, and 
give entire satisfaction in any make of shotgun. The 
results they give are due to their patented construction 
and the careful and exact manner in which they are 
loaded. The patented Corrugated Head used on Win¬ 
chester shells is an invaluable feature. It absorbs the shock 
of the powder explosion and takes the strain from the paper 
tube instead of localizing it, as the old English method 
of metal lining does. That’s why “Leader” shells are 
stronger and less apt to cut off at the mouth of the cup 
than shells made according to English ideas of long ago.

Cleveland Gun Club. 
Cleveland, O., April 12.—The Cleveland Gun Club 
tournament, held Wednesday April 10, was one of the 
nicest little shoots ever held on the club grounds, 
twenty-seven shooters taking part in the same, and some 
record-breaking scores being made by both professionals 
and amateurs. The weather conditions were just right 
for the sport. The shoot was the Washington’s Birthday 
tournament, which was to be held Feb. 22, but was post¬ 
poned owing to the severe weather conditions. 
J. E. Doolittle was the amateur daddy of the day with 
the fine- score of 179 out of 190, but was pushed hard 
by R. W. Ewalt, of Youngstown, who was just 3 birds 
out of the way with a seore of 176, and Hogen with 174. 
All three were high gun winners. J. R. Taylor looked 
after the professional end of the game, and made a score 
of 186 out of 190. Mr. Clancy was not high gun, but he did 
some great shooting in the last end of the tournament, 
going better than 100 straight. Pop Heikes was also 
going some, dropping cnly 7 birds in 190. 
The out-of-town shooters were Ewalt, Sloat, Witmer, 
Hansen, Knapp, Mowry, Barr and Harris, and each one 
of them left an order tor dinner for the tournament on 
Dfay -30, which will be 100 strong on that day. 
Mr. Krupp, the manager of the Sandusky Gun Club, 
was with us, but not just up to his old time record, 
owing to duck shooting, which he has been doing. He 
says ducks and bluerocks don’t look alike over a man’s 
gun, and then again the trap houses of the Cleveland 
Club are not as high as the trap houses of the Sandusky 
Club. I3ut Ira will get on to it after he finds the spot.
