[Jan. is, 1910.

At the weekly shoot of the New York Athletic Club, 
Jan. 8, at Travers Island, N. Y., Mr. F. A. Hodgman 
scored a leg on the January cup with a total of 24, from 
scratch. Messrs. \V\ J. Simpson, H. J. Thielman and 
G. Frederick tied on 25 in the Westley-Richards gun 
contest, Simpson winning with 24 out of 25 in the 
shoot-off. 
* 
The Keystone Yacht Club held its annual shoot at 
crows, at Tacony, Pa., on Jan. 8. Thirteen contestants 
ran 7 straight and tied for first, while six others missed 
but one. There were twenty-three contestants. Owing 
to the lateness of the finish, the ties were not shot off, 
but were decided by chance. Rose was first, McKane 
second, and Whitehead third.

At the live-bird shoot of the Penrose Gun Club, Phila¬ 
delphia, Jan. 8, Messrs. Lohr, Wark, Lamb, Aiman and 
Haldt tied on 10 straight, thus splitting up the money 
into small portions. Messrs. Clegg, Wingate and Will¬ 
iams tied for second on 9. Wingate had hard luck in 
losing his tenth bird dead out of bounds, though the 
same hard luck is inseparable from losing the first bird 
in like manner. 
The board of governors has issued the following: “The 
third annual target tournament of the Keystone Shooting 
League of Philadelphia will be held at Holmesburg

tournaments held by this organization, with several hun¬ 
dred dollars in cash and prizes to the winners. Entrance

in each event, divided Rose system, and for all who wish

tournament will be under the peerless management of 
Mr. Luther J. Squier, by courtesy of the E. I. du Pont 
de Nemours Powder Co., and Mr. Charles North will 
see that every target goes fast and true. Programs will 
be issued later.”

Dublin Gun Club. 
Dublin, O.—The first day of the New Year, nineteen 
hundred and ten was most fittingly celebrated by the Dub¬ 
lin Gun Club at their club house and shooting lodge, on 
the Scioto River, about twelve miles from Columbus. In¬ 
vitations were sent the members of the club to assemble 
on the afternoon of New Year’s Day, and some twenty- 
five shooters-responded and started things going lively. 
After a number of regular events were shot, a 50-target 
prize race was put on with three prizes up, which con¬ 
sisted of a pair of silk suspenders for first high, a fine 
pipe and case for second, and a gun cleaner for third, 
the race to be shot in three strings, two 15s and a 20. 
This race proved very interesting, and the high score 
and first prize went to Mr. Fred. Shattuck, who broke 
48 out of 50; second prize went to Mr. George Wing, 46, 
and third to Mr. Frank Smith, with 43. 
After the shooting was finished, the boys were enter¬ 
tained by the Dublin string band, which consisted of Mr. 
Ray Kauffman, violin; A. J. Athey, violin, Mr. Luce 
Chapman, ’cello; Mr. George Wing and Fred Shattuck, 
guitar. After the musical selections five large squab pies 
made of all the appetizing ingredients that could be 
thought of besides twenty-five squabs, had a tendency to 
attract everybody’s most careful attention for at least an 
hour. Mr. George Butler, of Columbus, one of the 
absent members, sent a surprise package that was opened 
with the dinner and was greatly appreciated. 
The evening’s entertainment lasted until 10:30, and 
every one to the man voted it one of the best, and 
after wishing many happy new years like Jan. 1, 1910, 
they were homeward bound. 
The Dublin Gun Club will give a one-day tournament 
in the spring, date to be announced later. The club has 
very pleasant grounds to shoot over, and will endeavor 
to entertain visiting shooters to the best of its ability.

Mr. Shell Davis and 
Mr. Dillahunt looked after the 
baking of the squab pie, and Mrs. 
Davis also 
had 
a 
hand in the construction. The pie spoke for itself, and 
left a longing for more with all present. 
The gun club proposed to give a masquerade dance at 
the town hall on St. Patrick’s day evening, which will 
most likely be preceded by a shooting fest in the after¬ 
noon. 
Harry Price says he had the time of his life. 
Ray Kauffman is some pumpkins with the fiddle, as 
well as the gun. 
Luce Chapman handles the bass bow with great -grace. 
Bert Wing shot a very consistent race and landed 
second place. 
Frank Smith got away well, but lost the flight for a 
spell. 
Pat Davis is there when it comes to keeping things 
on the jog. Fred. Shattuck.
