DRIVERS AND TWISTERS. 
The Fred Macaulay Business Men’s Gun Club, of 
Newark, N. J.. will hold an all-day shoot on June 14. A 
large attendance is anticipated, of whom a number are 
famous in the trapshooting world. 
Dates of registered tournaments have been changed as 
Follows: Seneca Falls Gun Club from May 28 to July 
15, owing to the death of Mr. Jos. N. Knapp. Worth¬ 
ington, Minn., Gun Club, from June 23-24 to June 19-20. 
Midland, Tex., Gun Club, from June 24-25, to Aug. 8-9. 
Cumberland, Md., Gun Club, from July 4 to July 20, 
and name changed to South Cumberland Gun Club. 
Ouray, Colo., Gun Club, from July 5 to July 4. 
Secretary-Manager Elmer E. Shaner writes us as fol¬ 
lows: “Gun clubs applying for registered tournaments 
will please note that, owing to the Grand American 
Handicap tournament, the office of the Secretary-Manager 
of the Interstate Association will be closed from June 18 
to Tune 25, inclusive. Applications received during that 
time will not be passed upon until the week beginning 
with Monday, June 27.” 
The West Chester, Pa., Gun Club’s registered tourna¬ 
ment, June 16, has a program of ten 20-target events, 
$1.40 entrance, a total of 200 targets, $14. Average 
moneys, $5, $3 and $2. There will be a special event at 
10 targets for a gold watch fob, entrance 25c., targets 
extra. Class shooting will govern the division of the 
moneys. Competition will begin at 11 o clock. Lunch 
obtainable on the grounds. The popular expert, Mr. 
Lloyd Lewis, will be manager. Mr. F. H. Eachus is 
secretary. 
K 
We are informed that “the fifth annual trapshooting 
tournament of the Canadian Indians will be held on the 
grounds of the Queen’s Royal Hotel, Niagara-on-the- 
Lake, Ont., on June 29-30 and July 1. The sum of $300 
in cash and trophies will be added to the regular purses. 
The programme will shortly be ready for distribution. 
This shoot >is looked forward to' as the trapshooting 
event of the year, and great stress is laid on its social 
side, as most of the members and participants are accom¬ 
panied by their families. The tournament is open to all.” 
We profoundly sympathize with Mr. Gilbert in. his 
illness, an account of which is communicated to us as 
follows: “Fred Gilbert, ‘the Wizard of Spirit Lake,’ is 
once more under the weather, having been taken sick 
Sunday night, May 29, with tonsilitis. He was at Cleve¬ 
land at the time, prepared to take in the Ohio State tour¬ 
nament at that point, but was confined to his hotel, where 
he was still located on June 2, at the Colonial Hotel, pre¬ 
pared to leave for his home at Spirit Lake just as soon 
as his medical adviser would permit of his doing so. 
Mr. Gilbert has been far from well for several weeks, 
particular,y at Columbus, Ga., and Des Moines, la., so 
that his scores made at those points may be considered 
as little short of remarkable. By taking great care of 
himself and resting up for the next two weeks he hopes 
to be sufficiently recovered to take part in the Grand 
American Handicap tournament in Chicago, where on 
Tune 24 he will be called upon to defend, against all 
comers, his title as the professional champion of America, 
a title which he won at the last two Grand American 
Handicaps, the one at Columbus, O., in 1908, and the 
one at Chicago, Ill., in 1909.” 
V. 
The annual State shoot of the Trapshooters’ League of 
Indiana will be held on the grounds of the Indianapolis

trance each day, constitute the program. The money- 
back system will be a feature. Class shooting, 35, 30, 
20 and 15. The sweepstakes are optional. Shooting will

unconditionally the League’s diamond championship 
badge. Events 3-9 of the first day and 2 and 8 of the 
second day—100 targets—will be the 2-man team contest. 
' After the program of the first day is concluded, the con¬ 
test for the President’s cup, 25 targets, 16 to 22yds. 
handicap, $3 entrance, class shooting, 40, 35 and 25, will 
take place. After the program of the second day is con¬ 
cluded, a special handicap event, for the Secretary’s 
cup and saucer, will take place. The special events are

apolis, is secretary of the League. The annual League

At the seventh annual tournament of the New Jersey 
State Sportsmen’s Association, held under the auspices 
of the Atlantic City, N. J., Gun Club, June 1-4, there 
was much phenomenal scoring done. Mr. C. F. Mink 
won the Marlborough-Blenheim trophy with 98 out of 
100, and the Western Cartridge Co. trophy with 50 
straight. The three-man team championship was won by 
the Freehold Gun Club with 144 out of 150. Dr. D. L. 
Culver won the Chalfonte trophy with 50 straight. Mr. 
\Y. M. Foord won the Chelsea trophy with 99. The

the “World’s” amateur championship with 97 under 
windy weather conditions. The State championship was

Ivins and Kling. Shooting off the first tie, Day and 
Ivins were high with 24 out of 25 targets. Day won 
the shoot-off, 24 to 23. Messrs. G. E. Painter, A. B.

Messrs. Painter, 101; W. M. Foord. 102; H. L. Brown, 
116; G. Lyon, 156, and lesser runs of notable merit were 
numerous. Richardson was high amateur for the three

with 583. Bernard Waters. 
Monlpelier Gun Club. 
Montpelier, Vt., May 27.—The sixth annual tourna¬ 
ment of the Montpelier Gun Club, May 24-25, was a 
great success from every standpoint. The shooting was 
of a high class, considering the conditions which pre¬ 
vailed, the wind making the targets very erratic at 
times. Everything possible was done to make the shoot 
a meeting of good fellowship, and with the 
of merchandise and average prices and the $-00 aduea 
money, there was a choice plum for every event. W hile 
the attendance was not as large as the shoot deserved, it 
will go down in history as a banner shoot in 1910. 
Several hundred spectators were at the grounds and 
evinced a heartv interest in the contests. A large tent 
was erected north of the club house, where the ladies 
served a most excellent lunch to shooters and members 
° f \ h E C Sibley was high professional for the two days 
witli a score of 368 out of 400. Second high professional 
went to O. R. Dickel with 367. W. G. Hill third, with 
Jl \V F Clark, of Boston, and Mayor Reed, of Man¬ 
chester N. H., shot a close race. At the end of the 
first day the Mayor had a lead of 3 targets, which he 
was unable to hold, and the Boston shooter finished 4 
birds over the Mayor, with a score of 3o9 out of 460, 
therebv winning the high amateur average and the silver 
decanter set and glasses donated by the Board of Trade. 
Mavor Reed took the bronze loving cud as second aver¬ 
age prize and G. IT. Hassam. the Needham shooter, 
with a score of 346 out of 400 took third prize, a bronze 
trophy.he shooters. President Moulton set a pace 
which outstripoed his club members, breaking .34- out 
of his 400 targets,'and was fourth amateur which was 
very creditable, considering the responsibilities and 
cares which fall on this official. 
Prize winners were: B. A. Eastman, first. Marlin 
repeating rifle, .32-40. Second G. H Hassam; third, 
G B Walton, E. F. Greenwood, H. L. Abbott, \v. F.
