Atlantic City, N. J., May 14.—The week-end shoot 
of the Atlantic City Gun Club was well attended, and 
with good weather conditions the scores ran exceptionally 
high. 
Young was high for the afternoon with 96 per cent. 
He is polishing up a bit for the State shoot in June. 
Powers and Watson were both shooting new guns, and 
considering that fact, their scores were more than satis¬ 
factory. What will they do after they get them broken in? 
Algar won the cut glass event after two shoot-offs with 
Dr. Watson. This event was very keenly contested, and 
Algar deserves lots of credit for his good work and 
steady nerve, just when he needed to “get them.”

The New Jersey State shoot will be held here June 
1 to 4. We believe we have the oest offering of any 
“ATLANTIC CITY” CUP, VALUE $300. 
To be shot for at the New Jersey State shoot, June 1 to 
4, at Atlantic City. 
St. James, Mo., May 13.—The two-day registered tour¬ 
nament was held here by the Gun Club on the 11th and 
12th, some twenty-five shooters participating. It is the 
opinion of the club that Barre and Dixon should be 
classed as professionals, both having had long experience. 
At any rate, it is felt that these two- trapshooters should 
be handicapped in future events.

Henry Robson, Pres. 
State in the Union, and also believe we will have the 
largest State shoot for the year 1910. The program has 
an actual value of $1,200 besides the sweepstake shoot¬ 
ing which is arranged for the best shooters, who are really 
tl’.e only ones who should go in such events. We be¬ 
lieve in letting the big ones fight it out among them¬ 
selves in sweepstake events. The consolation money 
takes care of the intermediate shots. 
From the number of inquiries coming in for pro¬ 
grams we will | have more shooters than we could 
handle, if it were not for the splendid facilities we have 
for running off a shoot of this magnitude. By addressing 
the undersigned at 1218 Atlantic avenue, any one can 
get a program. t „ „ „ ,

gave him a perfect score and the trophy.

tuted the second leg on the members’ cup for May, J. 
C. Atwater winning out with a total of 49 points.

Atchison, Kansas, May 1(5.—The Forest Park Guo 
Club held its tournament May 8 and 9, and while the 
attendance was cut down by the inclement weather of 
the few days before the shoot, yet there were forty- 
three entries. The shooting was most remarkable, there 
being no wind to bother the shooters, and at the close 
of the tournament it was found that there had been 
eight runs of 100 straight or better, as follows: Ed. 
O’Brien, 169; Mrs. Topperwein 123; Fred Bills, 116 and- 
107; Wm. Veach, 113 and 106; Harry Snyder, 111; Chris. 
Gottlieb, 108. 
The second day Harry Snyder won a gold medal 
offered by the Dupont Company to shooters running 
100 straight with Dupont powder. 
On May 9 squad No. 1, in event No. 2, broke 100 
straight. The squad was composed of O’Brien, Bills, 
Hensler, Gottlieb and Page.

of 420; second. Ed. O’Brien, 412 out of 420; third, Geo.

lay Wm. Veach, 411 out of 420; second, Harry Snyder,

Jos. Fusselman, 
Mgr. 
Cincinnati Gun Club. 
The sweepstake shoot of the club on May 14 was quite 
successful, sixteen shooters taking part. The program 
consisted of four events at 15 and two at 20 targets, 
purse divided 35, 30, 20 and 15 per cent. A purse for 
high average was made up of one cent for each target 
trapped and was divided 40, 30, 20 and 10 per cent. 
Shooting began at about 1:30 in the afternoon, and the 
events were run off without a hitch. Woolfolk Hender¬ 
son, W. R. Chamberlin and O. S. Haladay represented 
the trade, and were heartily welcomed by the club 
members. ... 
A strong wind prevailed until late in’the afternoon. 
What it did to the targets may be surmised by a glance 
at the scores. Henderson was the only one who shot 
anywhere near up to his mark, and he went along re¬ 
gardless of the wind, finishing high man with 95. 
Westcott was second and made high amateur score with 
89* Then came Chamberlin with 87, and De Mar, second 
high afnateur, in fourth place on 85. 
At the annual meeting of the club, held at the Grand 
Hotel on May 13, the following were elected as di¬ 
rectors for the ensuing year: Dr. R. Lee Bird, H. S. 
Connely, E. Hammerschmidt, John P. Heidel, Dr. A. 
A. B. Heyl, Elmer G. Lawrence, John A. Payne, D. 
Pohlar and R. W. West, Jr. The Board will meet and 
elect officers on May 17,
