National League Telegraphic Matches. 
With the end of June the series of telegraphic inter- 
:y team matches reaches the half-way mark. The inter- 
t in these contests has been very well sustained but 
e Grand American Handicap caused a little break the 
ter part of the month, and a couple of the clubs found 
impossible to get their teams together and were 
liged to forfeit the matches. Nothing is in sight now 
•it should interfere with the full complement of matches 
ing shot m the last three months of the series, and 
e clubs losing the one match in June have a good 
ance to land some of the handsome trophies yet. For 
■ June matches, Columbus took both first and second 
?h team honors with 472 against St. Louis, and 459 
atnst .Northern Kentucky. Columbus carried off the 
;h individual honors for June, Fred Shattuck record- 
x a score of 98 and W. R. Chamberlain one of 97 
d another one of 96. P. Baggerman and Mr. Grund- 
.n, of St. Louis, also scored 96 each. During June 
dianapolis won two matches; St. Louis lost two- Col- 
ibus won two; Kansas City won one, and failed to 
•dot the other; Chicago forfeited one and failed to 
ttot the other; Northern Kentucky lost two. Since 
t beginning of the series Indianapolis and Northern 
ntucky have each won three and lost three; St, Louis 
li won two and lost four; Columbus has won four and 
U two; Chicago has won two, lost two, forfeited one 
: 1 laded to shoot one; Kansas City has won three 
It two and failed to shoot one. High team score so 
[has been made by St. Louis, 479, in May; second 
I h, by Chicago, 462, in May. J. W. Bell, of St. Louis,

Jersey City, N. J., July 18.—Appended find scores 
ot the bi-monthly shoot of the Hudson Gun Club of 
Jersey City, N. J. There was an attendance of fifteen 
shooters, to-day, the majority shooting the programme 
through. High average was won again by Lou Schorty 
with 88 per cent.; Williams, with S5, and Engle, who 
finished one point shy with 84 were the runners up and 
were the only ones to show any class in to-day’s shoot, 
their targets being scored clean and quick, leaving a 
cloud of dust to tell the tale. 
In the Du Pont trophy event ? the traps were screwed 
up to the last notch, throwing targets 60yds., but 
Schorty and J. Pape managed to scratch out two per¬ 
fect scores and win a leg on the same—Schorty with 
47 actual breaks plus 3 handicap, and Pape breaking 34 
with an allowance of 16 targets, doing the trick 
The day was bright and pleasant, but a stiff wind that 
was blowing made shooting a little difficult at times as 
it caused the targets to take a sharp dip downward which 
caused - - r -’ 
sheets.
