there being some liberal allowances out of the lt> possi¬ 
ble. Those in the tie were Hogan, Chandler, Pierce, 
Gideon, Hewlett, Clegg, Fry and MacAlonan. Six 
dropped out in the first and second shoot-offs. When it 
was drawn to shoot-off miss-and-out, Chandler missed 
his seventh target, Hogan scoring his and winning. 
Chandler won second place. . , , 
In addition to the high scores counting for the weekly

Indianapolis Gun Club. 
Indianapolis, Tnd., Jan. 28.-An ideal spring day at 
the end of January and a good attendance marked the 
day at the gun club. In practice Smoke, a bit out ot 
form, broke 49 out of his last 50 targets. Barr a so- 
called professional, was admitted to the competition for 
the president’s cup, and at once found he was in a 
dilemma. Consideration due the club under such cir 
cumstances demanded that.he do the best he could, while 
on the other hand, his old friend Dixon-T-stt 11 without a 
cup—stood to win unless beaten by him. The right 
thought prevailed, and the summary of scores showed 
Barr 47, Dixon 46.

Haddonfield Gun Club. 
Haddonfield, N. J., Jan. 23.—The Haddonfield Gun 
Club held an irregular or bi-monthly shoot on Saturday, 
Jan. 21. The shoot was the best attended and most 
enthusiastic of any club shoot held on the grounds for 
months. The scores will show the importance of the 
Haddonfield gunners getting busy. They should remem¬ 
ber the adage, “practice makes perfect,” and get down 
to work at once, or they will be tail-enders in the 
Philadelphia l'rapshooters’ League when the season is 
James Logan won first prize. M. Manning won sec¬ 
ond. The shoot was at 25 targets, target allowance:
