by Mr. George W. Wagner with his Remington Pump Gun and U M C Nitro Club shells, and the 
second by Mr. W. F. Booker—Mr. Tom Clay and Dr. I. P. Gould tied for second, all shooting U M C

its season on Oct. 31 with a championship event. The 
popular and efficient Secretary, Mr. Miles Taylor, was

Dufour was high with 24.

The following is from the Shooting Times: “We be¬ 
lieve it was a railway porter who classed turtles as 
‘hinsects,’ but the inclusion of snails under the head 
of game seems still more far-fetched. Yet this has been 
done in France by the Council of the Cote d’Or, which, 
anxious to preserve the choicest of all snails, namely, 
the Burgundian, has placed the escargot in the schedule 
of ‘game with horns that, under pain of fine, no hunts¬ 
man is to shoot, ensnare, or capture in traps’ from 
April 15 to June 15.” Let us congratulate ourselves 
that in this land of the free and home of the brave, 
there are no restrictions on snail shooting. The snail 
shots are still untrammeled. 
In the contest for the championship of Kentucky, shot 
on Oct. 29, the second day of the Kentucky State live- 
bird shoot, at Dayton, Ky., Mr. W. F. Booker, of 
Louisville, scored 24 and won. Only members of the 
League who also were citizens of Kentucky were eligible 
to compete for the trophy. Mr. Tom A. Marshall, in 
behalf of the State League, made the presentation speech. 
On the second day, Mr. Rolla O. Heikes killed a straight 
35, the total of ,the programme, which as a performance 
stood alone as a feature of this tournament.
