smokeless powders—it throws but little smoke, and is as safe to shoot as black powder.

Du Pont Gun Club. 
Wilmington, Del., July 7. —One thousand spectators 
were present. A special feature was a match between 
Lester S. German, of Aberdeen, Md., and Linn Worth¬ 
ington, of Rising Sun, Md., at 25 singles and 15 pairs. 
Worthington led in the single target feature with 24 to 
22, but in the doubles, German scored 28 to 15 for his 
opponent. The totals were as follows: German 50; 
Worthington 43. Worthington was handicapped by qn 
injured finger. 
In a shoot-off to decide ties made in the merchandise 
event last Saturday, Eugene du Pont with 23 out of 25 
won his race in Class A. In Class B G. H. Mitchell was 
the successful contestant. In the other two classes ties 
were not decided, as the breakdown of the traps delayed 
matters to such an extent that a finish was impossible. 
These ties will be decided next Saturday. 
The event for the afternoon was the “Coleman du Pont 
merchandise event” for gun club members only. This 
was contested for by 73 shooters. The prizes were four 
silver spoons. The results were: 
Class A—J. A. McKelvey winner, with 24 out of 25. 
Class B—Dr. Bedford and R. P. Choate tied at 16 
with L. Evans; R. B. Evans and E. M. Hoopes, Jr., also 
tied, but were not eligible for the trophy, not being club 
members. 
Class C—O. B. Clark, R. Baily, Willard Kerr and W. 
S. Simpson, all tied at 13. 
Class D—F. H. Megaw tied with W. J. Hartlove at 
9. Mr. plartlove not being a club member and therefore 
not eligible, the trophy went to Mr. Megaw. All ties will 
be shot off next Saturday. 
In the revolver, pistol and rifle division, considerable 
interest was manifested in the shooting of Capt. K. K. V. 
Casey and J. H. Hessian. They were members of the 
American team of riflemen which represented the United 
States during the recent Olympic games, and both have 
made world’s records with the military rifle. These

In the trapshooting division a number of improvements 
have been made since last week, and others are contem¬ 
plated. Contract has been let for the laying of a cinder 
path from the club house to the roadway, also for a suit¬ 
able approach with signs indicating entrance to the 
grounds. An automatic trap of another design will be 
installed by next Saturday, and with other improve¬ 
ments provided for, the club hopes to be in position to 
handle the crowds and permit of more shooting. 
The interest in the match between German and Wortn- 
ington was so marked that the club hopes to have several 
interesting matches among -club members and others 
before long. William M. Foord, of this city, one of the 
crack amateur shooters in the East may shoot an exhi¬ 
bition race with Charles Newcomb, of Philadelphia. A 
handsome trophy will be provided for the winner.
