WINCHESTER 
Colorado Springs Gun Club. 
Colorado Springs, Colo.—The Thanksgiving matinee 
shoot, held on the Broadmoor shooting grounds by the 
Colorado Springs Gun Club, of Colorado Springs, Colo., 
was a most pleasant social shoot, the only detraction 
being the quite disagreeable chilly weather so rarely ex¬ 
perienced here thus early in the fall. 
Mr. W. Bowen was up from La Junta, and Messrs. 
Bowman, Plank, Ricker, Younkman, Hendrickson and 
King arrived from Denver on a delayed tram, being a 
little late for luncheon at the Alamo Hotel, but as the 
Thanksgiving meal was one of the main features of the 
entertainment, and the visitors the guests of the gun 
club, this part of the programme had to be “shot,” even 
if the latter part of the shoot had to be cut out. Such 
proved to be the case, and but 60 of the 100 targets in 
regular events were shot, and the last, 20 of these were 
shot in almost total darkness, especially by the last 
squad. Notwithstanding, all had a pleasant time. 
In the Spalding medal contest, emblematic of the 
State championship at 100 targets, Mr. Joe H. Rolirei 
shot a most consistent race, making three 23s, and 
closed with 25 straight, winning with 94. 
Mr. Fred King looked like a winner until the last 
string of 25, when he missed two- and went out with 93. 
A. J. Lawton, who handled the pencil and counted the 
cash, was stepping a two-minute clip in good form until 
the last quarter, when he broke and went under the wire 
with 92. , . 
Charles E. Younkman shot well, but not up to Ins 
usual form, and took 91. . , . . , 
Out of the thirteen entries, nine lost their wind and 
had to be contented this side of 90 per cent. mark. On 
this number, on the back seat, sat John W. Garrett, wno 
had held the medal since 1902, and had won it tnree 
out of the last four times it had been shot for. 
In the regular events, Mr. W. W. Shemwell was high 
with 54 out of 60, or 90 per cent. Frend King and 
Charles E. Younkman second with 53, and J. H. R*hrer 
third with 52. - ■<—. —• 
SHOTGUNS AND SHELLS 
The duck shooting season being here again, we are prompted to 
remind sportsmen that the best combination for this exhilerating 
sport, as well as for field or trap shooting, is a Winchester 
Repeating Shotgun and Winchester Factory Loaded Shells. Why 
best, do you ask? Because Winchester Shotguns are strong 
shooters, strongly constructed and so inexpensive that you won’t 
be afraid to use one when the briny spray is flying. As for 
shells, Winchester Factory Loaded brands are thoroughly water¬ 
proof and loaded to give the greatest accuracy, penetration and 
killing pattern. You can get them loaded with practically any 
combination of powder, shot and wadding that you prefer. Just 
try this combination of gun and shell and see if we are not right.

Outside of Mr. Rohrer’s score of 94, and King’s 93, 
the general shooting was far below Colorado’s usually 
high standard. 
Colorado Springs will likely hold a similar little shoot 
cn New Year’s Day, when the shooting will begin earlier 
in the day, so as to complete the programme.

Montclair Gun Club. 
Montclair, N. J., Dec. 5.—Ten men participated in 
the afternoon shoot to-day. Messrs. Fischer and Stoger, 
of the Caldwell Gun Club, paid us a visit and made 
arrangements for a team match on the Montclair grounds- 
on the 19th. 
While no straight scores were made to-day, Messrs. 
Colquitt and Allan made fairly good scores, considering 
the wind. The rest of the bunch were not in very good! 
^°Three handicap events were run off, the visitors taking 
home the prizes. . , . , 
The annual meeting and dinner of the club takes 
place on the evening of the 12 th.
