There was keen competition at the traps of the

the winners were: W. B. Ogden, Westley Richards gun; 
O. C. Grinnell, Haslin cup; G. M. Thomson, Stoll cup, 
and for the March cup there were six who scored 25,

The particulars concerning the death of Charles F. 
Jordan, Secretary of the Portland, Me., Gun Club, at 
Wellington, Mass., March 5, are published elsewhere in 
our trap columns. There were over one hundred shoot¬ 
ers on the grounds at the time, and the big team match 
had just been started, captained respectively by Messrs. 
Horace Kirkwood and Bob Smith. When the grievous 
loss occurred, the shoot was immediately ended. A 
warm friendship existed between the members of the 
Portland Gun Club and of the Palefaces, a condition 
which added a broader sense of grief and loss. Mr. 
Jordan was an enthusiastic trapshooter and was an in¬ 
defatigable promoter of it. As one of his friends de¬ 
clared: “He stood for good, clean, manly sport.” His 
funeral took place at his late horp^, 8 Nevins street, 
Portland, Me., on Tuesday of this week.
