Cleveland Gun Club. 
Cleveland, O., May 26.—The regular weekly club 
contest of the Cleveland Gun Club was held on Saturday 
afternoon. May 25, at Shooting Park, Mayfield road, was 
fairly attended. The w'eather conditions were of the 
best for the game and some good scores were put up. 
Brother Rogers and Doolittle were the banner team, 
each breaking 96 out of 100 in the first two events, and 
in the two Du Pont fob contests, DoOiittle broke 50 
straight, and Rogers 49 out of 50, and some thought 
they both had an off day. 
The May trophy contest that was brought to an end 
showed that Mr. Dibble was the winner of first prize 
for the month, having 15 points, and Mr. A. B. Jones 
was second with 14 points. 
The Du Pont fob shoot, which has been going the 
round for the last two months, April and May, was 
also ended to-day, and the fob was awarded to C. E. 
Doolittle, who broke 122 out of 125, taking his best five 
scores out of seven shoots of 25 targets each. Dr. 
Brown kept Charlie moving all of the time, and at the 
close of 
the contest the doctor was only one bird 
to 
the bad.
