Hercules Gun Club. 
. July 17.—The tournament held by 
the Hercules Gun Club, of Temple, Pa., was an enor- 
mous sue ces s. A high gale of wind prevailed. H. Linn 
Worthington led the professional line with 91 breaks 
PPL 0 ’ A 0, Neaf Apgar was second with 89; Stevens 
third with 87, followed by Lewis with 86 . 
-T ee Wertz was high amateur with 89 breaks out of 
100, tying the Senator. J. W. Rahn was second high 
amateur with 87, tying the popular expert Mr. Stevens, 
r. S. Rader, of Newmanstown, Pa., was third high 
amateur with 86 , tying Uncle Tom. 
Mf- Worth, of Hebron, Pa., paid us a visit and shot 
an 80 per cent, gait throughout the programme. Billy 
promised us a visit again on Oct. 17. 
All were pleased to see Mr. Shanaman with us, who 
is also widely known throughout Lebanon county. 
_E en S°°P e . r ’ tbe popular amateur of Mahanoy City, 
Pa., made his first appearance on our grounds to-day. 
His smiling countenance was admired by all. We shall 
be pleased to see him on Oct-17. 
Secretary Ludwig shot a 50 per cent, gait throughout 
the programme. 
Messrs. Adams and Melchior arrived in the fourth 
event, and shot the rest of the programme, 
Harry Coldren paid us a visit and shot through the 
programme. 
The eighth event was an interesting feature, of 20 
targets, for the Ithaca gun, in which Kenny, Landis, 
Rootz, Brunner and C. Adams tied with 19 out of 20. 
ihe gun was sold and the receipts divided. 
Stoudt and Schrack were at the helm. A. A. Fink, 
known among the boys all over the sporting world,’ 
showed his courtesy in paying us a visit after the 
parade. 
,. In I 5 : tar e et events, three straights were made by 
Mr. Worthington, Apgar two, Stevens one, Lewis one, 
Kader one, and Wertz one. This shows great enthusiasm. 
We are sorry that Geo. W. Hansell, the popular ama- 
T r ’ T R ebanon > was kept away on business. 
J. L. Englert, the pleasing amateur, of Catasauqua, 
f a -> was expected, but informed Secretary Ludwig that 
he had promised to shoot with his brother amateurs in 
ms own town, who held their opening shoot on this 
date, and that he had to pay his respects to them first. 
John you are excused, but we think this absence was 
greatly due to one of your friends of the fair sex. We 
tr M yOU W1 " brin S ber a l° n g on Oct. 7. 
Many of the boys expect to go to Newmanstown, Pa., 
on Saturday, July 24, at their annual tourney. Secre- 
iary Koder extended a kind invitation.
