dent, G. B. Wolton; Vice-President, C. E. Megrath; 
Secretary and Treasurer, Dr. C. H. Burr; Field Captain, 
B. A. Eastman; Executive Committee—H. B. Moulton, 
W. IT. ITarsington. 
The club is in a prosperous way financially, and has an 
active membership of fifty. 
The club has redeemed the Vermont State trophy cup¬ 
valued at $25, and will place it in open competition for 
residents of Vermont. 
Friday an invitation shoot at 50 targets, events 6 , 7 
and 8 of the regular programme, for which the club 
donates a suitable trophy. Open to all clubs. Each 
team to consist of five bona fide members of the club 
which they represent. 
The management is already assured of a large attend¬ 
ance. Among the professionals who are coming are J. 
A. R. Elliott, Jack Fanning, Sim Glover, Tom Marshall 
and Gil. W. Heller. Among the crack amateurs are A. 
S. Head, St. Albans, Vt., who last year won the State

Jackson Park Gun Club. 
Pa.terson, N. J., April 21.— Some of the boys most 
interested in the club are at the present time entering 
their busiest business season, and as a consequence 
there will be a little shortage of members at the traps for 
a few weeks. Otherwise the traps will be kept in 
motion on their regular shooting days. We have been 
busy at the grounds in fitting up a first-class revolver 
and rifle range for the homeless shooters of Paterson, 
and I must say they are proud of the generosity of the 
Jackson Park Gun Club in coming to their aid in 
their hour of need. It has proved a popular move, as 
it is going to cater to a long-felt want, and for a large 
number of shooters. There are many experts of both 
classes around Paterson and Passaic who have been 
waiting for just such an opportunity. They are coming 
forward with their applications for membership beyond 
all expectations. In a short time it is expected that 
Paterson will be able to boast of one of the finest and 
best equipped revolver and rifle ranges in the country, 
and a large membership. The target arrangements are 
the patents of a member of the club, and far sur¬ 
pass anything in use in this country. 
There will be a formal opening of the new range, 
which adjoins the present club house of the Jackson 
Park Gun Club, on Decoration Day, Thursday, May 30, 
at which time the two clubs will co-operate and give a 
grand double shoot at both bluerocks and on the re¬ 
volver range. 
They will offer a popular programme at both competi¬ 
tions. It will be sent out about May 1. The re¬ 
volver enthusiast will send invitations to several revolver 
clubs and to many expert revolver shots to be their 
guests. 
While the Jackson Park Gun Club will look after the 
comfort of the many guests expected to visit us on that 
day, every one will be courteously received at either 
rdange, as it is expected that there will be many to 
visit us who are interested in either one sport or the 
other. 
Two separate entertainment committees will be ap¬ 
pointed to look after their separate guests while at the 
different ranges. 
Further particulars will be sent in after a meeting 
next week. The revolver club will be known as the Jack- 
son Park Revolver Club, governed by their own ground 
officers. Wm. Dutch er.
