We are sure throwing some doubles, and Wiede has 
gone 87 per cent at the last 50 pair. 
President of County Court, G. M. Lilley, is sporting 
a new Peerless car, as well as breaking 90 per cent, at 
targets. 
Think it would be a good thing for you E. C. cup 
entries to happen around about Monday, the 13th, for 
practice. 
\\ e are swelling up to think the E. C. cup will be 
shot for in open competition the fifth time, and at 
Fairmont. 
If you don’t get your program in the next week, 
please write to Ed. H. Taylor, Secretary, Fairmont,

Richmond Gun Club. 
Va.. April 15.—The Richmond Gun Club 
held a practice shoot ori its grounds Saturday afternoon, 
and judging from the enthusiasm displayed by those in 
attendance, Richmond will have the best club it has had 
for many years. Brown was high man in twenty-five 
\vith a run of 37 without a miss, and his straight was 
the first made on the grounds this season. Boyd was 
high gun in fifty, accounting for 47, and Hechler a close 
second with 46. 
_ The regular season opens Saturday, May 4, at which 
time a large number is expected to be present. The 
scores, 50 targets each, were: Boyd 47, Hechler 46, 
Brown 45, Cooke 45, Tignor 37, Lawrence 42, McClay 24. 
Ilkeston Gun Club. 
SiKESTON, hlo., April 19.—Out of 50 clay pigeons th 
following scores were made, Friday, April 19: Wir 
Leslie 37, Dr. D. E. Sawyer 33, W. H. Tanner 31

Iriday at 1 P. M. Visitors welcome.

Royal Gun Club. 
Mt. Healthy, O., April 21. —The Royal Gun Club held 
a special shoot to-day as a means of letting the trap- 
shooters know that they were doing business, and to 
give them a chance to meet and get acquainted. The 
club’s grounds are fully up to the average shooting 
grounds. There is a fine sky background, against which 
me targets are plainly visible as soon as they leave the 
trap. A light rise in the ground makes the left quarterers 
rather deceiving, and seemed to bother some of the 
strangers a little at first. A club house will be erected 
this season, work on which will start at once, and when 
this is completed, the club will have a home which will 
be hard to beat. There was no regular program to-day, 
most of the contestants shooting at 100 targets in strings 
of 25, and a few of them finished the afternoon with a 
couple of events at doubles. 
German was high gun. In his first 50 he dropped 2, 
and then went straight in the last events, scoring 98. 
“Kid” Kendall was the second man, getting 92, while 
Charlie Young got in third place on 91. Capt. Dameron 
was not in form to-day at the start, but he struck his 
gait in the last two event^ breaking 92 per cent., and 
getting in fourth place. Donald and Hammerschmidt 
tied for fifth, neither of them shooting up to their mark. 
Donald was the only shooter, except German and Ran¬ 
dall, to go straight in any one of the events during the 
afternoon. Louis Bittner, a member of the club and 
new at the game, had the honor of tying with Squier 
and Holliday, and that is going some for a tyro. 
The club will hold an all-day picnic and shoot on 
June 22, and all trapshooters are invited to come and 
bring their guns. There will be a good attendance of 
shooters from neighboring cities, and a number of the 
prominent professionals will also attend. The next shoot 
of the club will be held on April 27 and 28.
