[Jan. 21, 1911. 
ANOTHER 
VICTORY 
This Time a Legal One, and One of Great Importance 
We are glad to announce to all our friends the conclusion of the long and hard-fought 
legal battle between The Peters Cartridge Company and the Winchester Repeating Arms 
Company. Suit for infringement of Patents was instituted by the Winchester Company in 
July, 1906; a decision in favor of the Peters Cartridge Company was rendered in the C ircuit 
Court, July, 1909; the case was carried to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals the 
court of last resort—where on January 11, 1911, the decision of the lower court was affirmed. 
It is thus finally and conclusively established that the shotgun shells manufactured by us 
are not in any way an infringement of the Winchester Company’s goods, but on the contrary, 
are made according to our own original ideas and scientific tests, by methods and processes 
which have made PETERS AMMUNITION famous forits SUPERIOR SHOOTING QUALITIES.

Indianapolis Gun Club. 
Indianapolis, Ind., Jan. 7.—The cry of “dead” became 
a bit monotonous to-day at the initial contest for the 
president’s cup, a valuable and appropriate trophy of¬ 
fered by Dr. Britton, for competition under certain 
handicap conditions. The real fight was between Lewis, 
who has of late been shooting well, and consistently, 
and Moller, for some months out of form. Lewis’ first 
two targets “slipped through the pattern,” but he then 
made a run of 48 and seemed a sure winner. But Moller 
would not be downed, and broke 49, his “time” being 
perfect. He followed with 20 straight in practice, Lewis 
again but one behind, and finished with 69 out of 70. 
Next week he competes from the 18yd. mark, all others 
remaining at 16 until they score a win. 
The beauty of the cup appealed strongly to Dixon, 
wmose modesty—yea, generosity—has long kept him 
in the background, contented to see his friends line 
themselves with trophies. It is said Tom Parry had to 
go to the garret with some of his, but habit again 
overcame desire, and he was not noticed in the race, 
although in practice he was high gun.

Hudson Gun Club. 
Jersey City. N. J., Jan. 15.—The first of a series of 
prize events of the Hudson Gun Club was shot to-day 
under very favorable conditions, as the day was balmy 
and spring-like. There were twenty-six shooters who 
took part in the program events, and some good scores 
and some that could not be called record-breakers, were 
recorded. The best performer this morning was an old- 
timer at our grounds, shooting under the name of Clin¬ 
ton, who finished high gun with an average of 85 per 
cent., and who made the only straight score of the day, 
D. D. Engle, with 84 per cent., was a close second, 
'and another old war horse, George Piercy, who was not 
shooting up to his usual form, had to be content with 
third average. 
In the prize event, Mr. C. Von Lengerke and Mr. A. 
P. Lane were the lucky shooters to score 6 points each, 
and win a leg on one of the numerous prizes being 
contested for. In this contest the management has 
arranged so that each shooter shooting the series through 
will win a prize, and we have expensive bronzes, cut- 
glass, silver vases, loving cups, gold coin, fly-rods, load¬ 
ing implements and lots of other merchandise, that will 
take the eye of the most fastidious shooter to grace the 
wall of his den or home. 
The second shoot of this series will take place on 
Jan. 29, and any shooter that knows where the Hudson 
club house is situated is welcome to get on the job and 
enter and win one of the trophies.

Analostan Gun Club. 
Washington, D. C., Jan. 15.—The Analostan Gun 
Club held its annual meeting on the 12th inst. The fol¬ 
lowing officers were elected for the ensuing year: Pres¬ 
ident, C. S. Wilson; Vice-President, Dr. W. fa. Monroe; 
Treasurer. Dr. A. B. Stine; Secretary, Miles Taylor; 
Captain. Col. Geo. W. Peck, Jr.; Trustees, M. D. Hogan, 
R. P. Hawes and C. B. Wise. 
The trustees at the commencement of the season ar¬ 
ranged for the club contests. The regulations provided 
that to be eligible for prizes a member must shoot in at 
least ten regular shoots, and during the season must 
shoot at 750 or more targets. The shooters were divided 
into four classes, which were determined as follows: 
Class A, from and including the highest percentage ob¬ 
tained by any eligible member to and including 10 per 
cent, below, and so on down to Class D. The secretary’s 
report showed the following gentlemen to be the winners 
of the prizes:

Perhaps Dr. Stine is entitled to the largest meed of 
praise for consistent work done in view of the fact that 
he shot at 3255 targets and scored .868 per cent, of them. 
He shot in all kinds of weather, and did not miss but 
one shoot during the season. Hunter made a good record 
in the club contests, his average being' .927, but did not 
shoot at enough targets to entitle him to a place. Taylor, 
the secretary, was in the same boat, and had an average 
in the club contests of .915. 
At the meeting the trustees were authorized to install 
another trap and make other improvements. 
It was also decided to join the Maryland Shooting As¬ 
sociation, which was recently organized. 
During the past year twenty-three new members were 
added to the rolls. Over 75,000 targets were thrown, and 
the average attendance at each shoot was twenty mem¬ 
bers—those actually participating. 
In the election of Co. Geo. W. Peck, Jr., as Captain, 
the club has secured a most excellent officer. He was 
formerly a member of the Milwaukee and Racine, Wis., 
gun clubs, and is surely a live wire. He understands 
the game and there will be something doing every 
minute under the Colonel’s management. 
Montclair Gun Club. 
Montclair, N. J., Jan. 14.—The heavy fog this after¬ 
noon not only deterred several of the would-be shooters 
from showing up, but produced some very low scores, 
the best score of the afternoon being made in the 
fourth event, 21 breaks, by Frazee. The third event— 
the second leg on the January cup, 25 targets, kickers’ 
handicaps, was won by W. A. Williamson, with 14 
breaks and 9 added targets, a total of 23—away below 
his usual average.
