PETERS SHELLS FIRST 
IN SOUTHERN HANDICAP 
Peters Ammunition is justly famed for the old 'RECO'R'DS it has broken, and the new 'RECO'R'DS 
it has established. In Rifle, Revolver and Shotgun Shooting PEXERS goods have time and again distanced all 
previous scores, and the 1910 Southern Handicap at Columbus, Ga., May 3-5, is the latest instance. In the big Handicap 
Race, Mr. H. D. Freeman, shooting PETERS FACTORY LOADED PREMIER. SHELLS, made 
the wonderful—in fact sensational—score of 
99 OUT OF 100 FROM 21 YDS. 
No such 21-yard score has ever before been made, and it is given especial importance because it was made in 
one of the big trap shooting events of the year, in “fast company” and under regulation conditions. All credit to 
Mr. Freeman and to his ammunition. Such a score could only be made with loads having hiqh 'Velocity 
(without excessive recoil) quicK. ignition and perfect pattern .

amateur' championship, $1 entrance. Nos. 5 and 6 the 
State championship, $1 entrance. Nos. 5 to 8, inclusive, 
. e Young’s Hotel trophy. Nos. 7 and 8, the Consola¬ 
tion Stake. 
The “World’s” amateur championship was won by 
Charles H. Newcomb (Hastings), of Philadelphia, with 
97. Wolstencroft, Richardson and Ivins tied on 96. The 
winner received the Atlantic City cup and $15; the 
runner up, $10. 
The State championship resulted in a tie on 48 between 
Billings, Ivins, Kling and Day, Jr. In the first shoot- 
off, Ivins and Day tied on 24, while Billings and Kling 
scored 22 each. In the shoot-off, Day won, 24 to 23. 
This shoot-off took place after the program was finished, 
between 2 and 3 o’clock, when the conditions were ideal 
for good scores. It was a fine exhibition of nerve and 
skill of those in the tie. In this event, open only to 
New Jersey shooters, the winner received the Lafiin & 
Rand challenge trophy and 50 per cent, of the purse; 
second, 30 per cent.; third, 20 per cent. 
The Young’s Hotel trophy, 100 targets, resulted in a 
tie on 98 between Painter, Richardson and Griffith. 
The latter overlooked adjusting the safety at the first 
shot, but pluckily readjusted it after calling “pull,” and 
fired and missed in the shoot-off. He then ran 24 
straight. Richardson also scored 24, while Painted ran 25 
straight and won. 
In the Consolation event, the $70 in cash was divided 
into six parts, $20, $15, three of $10, and $5. McHugh 
and Sindle tied on 49. Piercy and Schlicher tied on 48. 
Anderson and E. Ford tied on 46. 
High amateur for the day, Richardson, 194, received 
the Seaside Hotel trophy and $15. Second and third 
received $10 each, while $5 each went to the next four 
places. Painter and Griffith tied on 192. Powers, 191; 
Ivins 190; Wiedebush and Mink 181. In the professional 
ranks Hawkins was high with 195. Elliott and Lyon, 
194; Glover, 193; Welles, Stevens and Brown, 191. 
A squad, whose members were Elliott, Painter, Welles, 
Schlicher and Weidebush, broke 125 straight, a perfect 
score. 
Lyon had an unfinished run of 116 from Friday, which 
he ran up to 156 on Saturday, and qualified for his sixth 
Du Pont long-run trophy of this season. Brown ran 116. 
Ford 102. Painter 101. Of runs less than 100 they were 
numerous, as a reference to the scores shows. 
The amateur high averages for the three days were: 
Richardson, 578; Foord, 577; Herman, 574; Wolstencroft, 
572; Mink, 570. 
For the three days, German was high professional with 
583 out of 600. Lyon, second, 581; Hawkins, 580; Elliott, 
Welles and Glover, 572.

Chicago (HI.) Gun Club. 
May 30.—The weather to-day was more like a late fall 
day than the last of May. A cold and raw wind was 
blowing from the northwest, which made the fire in 
the club house feel comfortable. The conditions were 
not very god for shooting, as it was dark and cloudy 
and a gusty wind caused many of the targets to duck 
just about the time the shooter pulled the trigger. But 
despite these trying conditions, some very good scores 
were hung up. 
C. E. Shaw was high man for the day with 142 out 
of 150 in the program, and a frame of 25 straight in 
practice, he having broke 97 out of the first hundred he 
shot at. Geo. Roll was next in line with 141 out of 150, 
and Einfeldt coming along with 138 out of 150, and 44 
out of 50 in practice. J. Taggart was going at a good 
clip to-day, breaking 96 out of 100. 
Among the new beginners were Mr. Craver, who had 
never shot at targets before today. Strauss and Gaut 
were in the same fix, but all managed to land some 
targets and all will improve quickly with a little practice.
