Twenty-three contestants participated in the monthly 
target shoot of the Independent Gun Club, held at 
Holmesburg Junction, Pa., on April 9. The competition 
was very keen for the four silver spoons,, which were 
the prizes. Oliver, Landis and Lockwood tied on 90 
for actual breaks, a shoot-off by these three was neces¬ 
sary to determine the winner of the spoon, the prize for 
actual performance. Oliver ran 24, missed his 25th, but 
won. Landis broke 22; Lockwood 20. Class A spoon 
was won by Boyer with a score of 100, of whjch 85 
were actual. Appleton and Wilson tied in Class B on 
90, Appleton winning by default in the tie. Firth and 
Scheffy tied in Class C on 80, the latter winning by 
scoring 21 to 18 in the shoot-off. 
The second of the home-and-home series of contests 
between ten-man teams of the New York Athletic Club, 
the Crescent Athletic Club, and the Larchmont Yacht 
Club took place at Travers Island, April 9, and resulted 
in a victory for the home club. The totals were: New 
York Athletic Club 901, Crescent Athletic Club 887, 
Larchmont Yacht Club 814. The totals of the two 
contests for the three teams are 1700, 1701 and 1553 re¬ 
spectively in the order mentioned above. Thus there is 
but one target difference between the two leaders, the 
Crescents being one in the lead. This indicates that the 
third contest, to be held on the Larchmont grounds, 
April 23, will be keenly contested, and will represent the 
best talent that the clubs can marshal for that event. 
High individual score, 96, was made by Mr. F. B. 
Stephenson, of the Crescents; Mr. R. L. Spotts, of the 
Larchmonts, being second with one less, 95; and Mr. 
F. H. Schauffler, of the New York A. C., in turn was 
one less, 94. Of the thirty contestants, thirteen scored 
90 per cent, or better.

Lebanon, Pa„ Gun C!ub. 
Allentown, Pa., April 4. —For the Lebanon Gun Club 
shoot, this was a cold, rainy, gloomy day up until noon, 
when the sun came peeping on several sudden occasions, 
which kept the shooters away. Some of the boys—Brown, 
Apgar and Glover, of New York, and Cumberland, of 
Columbus, O.—arrived Sunday night, and Ludwig and 
Silfies on the first train from Allentown in the morning. 
We weqt to the grounds at 10 A. M. Lewis took charge 
of the office. We entered and opened firing with the 
first squad at 11 A. M., our teeth chattering on several 
occasions. 
You should have seen these boys smash them. Col. 
Cumberland broke 193 out of 200—second high profes¬ 
sional, with three straights and 19 in seven events. 
A jolly_ good fellow is he. We admire him, especially 
the ladies. 
Sim Glover was high professional with 196 out of 200, 
with a straight in each of 7 events—a great record. Sim, 
although his gills were swollen from the cold, gave 
us some jolly songs between the events, while Neaf 
Apgar sat up close to the stove, thawing his corns. 
Brown ranked as third professional with 192 out of 
200, with four straights during the day. He took an 
occasional smile while peeping over his goggles, which 
were signs of pleasure. 
Lewis put up a good gait, with 183 breaks, and kept 
the game moving by his funny stunts. 
Apgar suffered from severe cold—sickly. Fell a little 
below his average with 179. 
G. W. Hansell, of the home club, was high amateur 
with 183 out of 200. He had straights in three events. 
Martin, of Harrisburg, Pa., was second high pro¬ 
fessional with but one target less than 182—a very close 
race. 
Silfies, of Catasauqua, Pa., scored some good events. 
His big hat of the South made him famous. 
Van De Sande shot a 70 per cent, clip on 100 birds. 
North could not reach the 20 mark to-day.

SELF-LOADING RIFLE, MODEL 1910 
This new Winchester shoots a heavier bullet 
and hits a harder blow than any other recoil 
operated rifle made. It is even more power¬ 
ful than the .30 U. S. Army, of big-game 
hunting fame. The loading and firing of 
this rifle is controlled by the trigger finger. It 
HITS LIKE THE HAMMER OF THOR. 
Send for illustrated circular fully describing 
this new rifle which has strength and power plus.
