FOREST AND STREAM. 
Interstate Club Championships. 
Chicago, Ill.—The first annual interstate five-man 
team and individual championship shoot, held on the 
grounds of the Chicago Gun Club, April 17, was a 
grand success. Despite the unfavorable weather, it 
being dark and cloudy, with rain falling a good part of 
the time, we had over one hundred shooters, and a large 
number of visitors, of whom quite a number were ladies, 
who were intensely interested in watching the results 
on the firing line. 
A strong south wind was blowing, and kept most of 
the shooters guessing where to hold on the targets. 
The individual championship went to Guy V. Dering, 
a popular member of the Milwaukee team. He made the 
very good score of 98 out of 100. J. B. Barto was close 
up with 90. 
Dering and the five men on the winning team were 
each presented with a very handsome silver trophy, em¬ 
blematic of the Interstate individual and five-man team 
championship. They may well be proud of their win¬ 
nings, won under trying weather conditions. 
The teams and the individual scores at 100 targets fol¬ 
low:

San Jose Gun Club. 
San Jose, Ill., April 18.—Our attendance was cut short 
on account of the sudden change of the weather, there 
being about two inches of snow on the ground. But in 
spite of all that, we had a fair attendance to-day and 
our program shoot gave good satisfaction; so much so, 
that we will repeat it in October, and will issue a still 
finer and neater program than the one just issued. 
Thanking the representatives for the interest shown 
toward the good of the shoot, we hope to see them again 
in the near future.

Because it combines guaranteed shooting ability with the sim¬ 
plest and strongest repeating mechanism handles quicker and 
i shoots harder than any other repeating gun. 
The fflarAn solid top prevents powder and gases blowing 
back; the side ejection of shells allows instant repeat shots. The 
closed-in breechbolt keeps out rain, snow and sleet, and the dirt, 
leaves, twigs and sand that clog up other repeaters. 
The double extractors pull any shell, two special safety 
devices prevent the explosion of a cartridge while action is un¬ 
locked, and the automatic recoil lock removes all danger from 
hang-fires, making it the safest breech-loading gun built. 
From the light-weight ( 6 % lbs.) 16-gauge to the new 1 \{ lbs. 12-gauge. 
'7/ar/tn repeaters in all models, grades and styles are well-made, finely, 
balanced guns, especially'designed for hard shooting and quick handling.
