C. B. ®. Q. Tournament. 
La Crosse, Wis.—The first annual tournament of the 
C., B. and Q. Gun Club was held at La Crosse, Thurs¬ 
day, Aug. 6, under most favorable conditions. Not one 
complaint was heard during the shoot. On the con¬ 
trary, all present expressed themselves as being sat¬ 
isfied. As this was our first tournament, we were pleased 
to have everything satisfactory. 
Our aim now is to give a two days’ shoot next year 
and the State shoot for 1910. Our grounds are situated 
on the banks of the Black River, two blocks from the 
car line and fifteen minutes’ ride from hotels. Any one 
who has ever visited us knows our hotel accommodations 
are first-class and ample enough to care for any crowd. 
Out of fifty-three shooters, fifteen shot from_ 90 up to 
96 per cent. Hammersmith, from Milwaukee, shot high 
and high general average for the day, while J. V. Winter, 
of La Crosse, finished second high amateur, losing but 
3 out of the last 120 targets. 
Wm. Stannard was high professional with 142 out of 
150, giving him 94 2-3 per cent, for the day. 
Following are the scores for the full programme:
