July 22, Third Day. 
The third and last day of the Eastern Handicap 
started in vvith a promise of trouble, as the indications 
were for ram, which finally set in pretty hard at times. 
As this is nothing new to Mr. Shaner, he easily proved 
to those who had any fears about finishing the shoot 
that day, that he could handle the situation all right. 
The shoot commenced promptly at 9:30 A. m, and by 
noon the five events at 20 targets each were finished, 
and plenty of time was given for lunch. At the finish 
of these events J. E. Jennings, of Toronto, was high 
with 99 out of a possible 100, closely followed by A. B 
Richardson, Dover, Del., with 98, and a tie, viz Hess 
ar |d D Wadsworth, J. M. Hawkins and W. R. Crosby 
with 97, L. J. Squier and R. O. Heikes finishing with 
96 each. 
Promptly at 1 p. m. Mr. Shaner called up squad No. 
1 to start the Handicap and the 21yds. men stepped 
fordward to the score. This squad are deserving of a 
great deal of credit as they finished their 100 each with 
an even 94 per cent, on 500 targets. Harry I. Hess, of 
Nanticoke, Pa., again demonstrated that no one has it 
over him as an amateur, as he finished up with 95 at 
20yds., and it looked very much as if his score would 
be high on that day. Later in the game, one Mr. F. 
D. Peltier, of Mt. Clements, Mich., stepped in and 
stilled that argument by finishing with 96. This looked 
like an even bet that it would hold good, when slowly 
creeping along in the ninth squad, came Harry E. 
Smith, of Columbus, Ohio, who finished up with 9S, 
which put all minds to rest as to the winner. At least 
this was settled when the last squad had finished the 
first event at No. 1 set of traps; then only was it safe 
to say that he was surely the winner. It was a good 
race and one that he can be very proud of, as he shot 
from the 18yds. mark, and in competition with the best 
shots in the country. Despite the rain, which set in 
at times pretty hard, the shoot was finished in ample 
time for all, and twenty minutes after the finish, Mr. 
L. J. Squier, cashier, announced that he was ready to 
pay out each contestant for all events. Mr. Elmer E. 
Shaner made the presentation speech, and in a few 
well spoken words, presented each winner with a trophy 
presented by the Interstate Association, a handsome 
diamond watch fob. Each of the winners responded 
with a few words and thanked Mr. Shaner for his kind 
words of praise. 
The total number of entries was 119; for targets only, 
39 shot; the total number of actual starters was 114. 
The purse was as follows: 78 entries at $S—$624; two 
penalty entries at $13—$26; added money, $200; total 
purse, $850. 
The winners and their winnings and score follow: 
H. E. Smith, 9S, $136; F. D Peltier, 96, $119; H. I. Hess. 
95, $93.50; Woolfolk Henderson, 94, $76.50; J. B. Barto’ 
C. D. Henline and G. M. Phillips, 93 each. $59.50; O e’ 
Carpenter and G. N. Fish, 92 each, $42.50; IL D. Kirk- 
over, Hugh Fleming, C. L. Frantz, C. F Lambert and 
G. E. Burns, 91 each, $25.50; F. E. Foltz, T. E. Jennings
