Columbus Gun Club. 
Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 4.—One dozen shooters faced 
the traps Saturday afternoon. Scores will tell the 
weather was very windy. Bert Call was a welcome 
visitor, so were Ross and Fuller. 
Looks like there will be some shooting from now on. 
The targets will be thrown about 50yds. instead of 40yds. 
as heretofore; so you will find harder shooting from 
now on, so as to be ready for the two big tournaments 
in Tune. 
The midwinter promises to be a good one, 150 targets 
each day on the Squier money-back system, also two 
extra events at 25 targets each, will liven up things. 
The State shoot will call for 150 targets each day on 
the monev-back plan, with 50 extra targets each day. 
The Interstate Association adds $300 as average money 
this year. Non-residents can shoot for the purses only. 
Average money and trophies are for Ohio shooters only. 
All other events are open to all. Scores:

*Not shooting for trophy. 
At each Saturday shoot a prize will be given for every 
25 straight made by amateurs. 
Feb. 11.—W. R. Chamberlain was high man at the 
traps this afternoon with an even 90 per cent. Capt. 
Carson won a point on the Dupont trophy by breaking 
a straight with his handicap allowance. 
Every week sees some new faces at the club, which 
shows new interest being taken. The writer is receiving 
congratulations every day for landing the Grand Ameri¬ 
can' Handicap, and they are pledging themselves and 
others to attend. There ought to be a record for at¬ 
tendance of Ohio shooters, also from the East, to say 
nothing about the Middle West. To-day’s scores:

Chicago Gun Club. 
Chicago, III., Feb. 4.—While this was a fairly pleasant 
day, the air was rather crisp, and a “choppy” wind 
from the northwest was the cause of quite a few lost 
targets, which would dip down when least expected. 
Stannard took first honors in the handicap event, break¬ 
ing 47 from 16yds; Young getting 46 from 20yds., while 
Mathews made the same score from 16yds. 
In event No. 2, at doubles, J. R. Graham was high 
with 33 breaks. Young being next with 31, and Mac- 
Lachlan third with 26. 
Besides the above events, quite a few frames of 25 
were shot, Graham having the best of it most of the 
way, as he scored 23, 24, 25 and 25, with a total of 97 
out of 100, losing only one out of the last 75 singles, 
also getting one 24. 
Young had two 24s to his credit, while MacLachlan 
had one of the same score.

Feb. 5.—Although the weather to-day was not of the 
most inviting sort, it being dark and cloudy, with a 
strong wind blowing from the east, which not only 
caused most of the targets to soar skyward, but blew 
the powder smoke back into the eyes of the shooters. 
We had just got fairly started, when it started to 
snow, and a genuine blizzard was raging in a short time, 
the cold wind driving the snow into the faces of the 
shooters. 
McGarv took first place in the handicap event, he 
scoring 39 from the 16yd. mark. Geo. Eck came in for 
second place with 37 from 19yds., Walsh getting third 
honors with 36 from 16yds., while Peck broke 35 from 
19vds. 
In the event at 20 pairs doubles. Peck showed the way 
by breaking 25, Geo. Eck landing second with 24, while 
Shaw brought down 23. 
In event No. 3, at 25 singles, all 16yds., Miss Anna 
Rieker and Seelig tied for first place, each breaking 
20, Peck and Taggart each scoring 19, while Crocker and 
McGarv each returned a score of 17. 
Cutler and Walsh each landed a score of 23 in a frame 
of 25. 
Peck, the “live wire” from Kenmare. N. D., was with 
us to-day, and incidentally returned the best score in a 
single frame for the afternoon, when he broke 24 out 
of 25. 
Miss Rieker, of Lancaster, Pa., was with us again to¬ 
day, and she assured us that she will visit our park 
whenever she comes to Chicago. 
Dr. Griffith did most of his shooting with a 28-gauge 
and tried one frame from 18 and 20yds.

Northern Kentucky Gun Club. 
Ten shooters took part in the live-bird events on Feb- 
9, given as preliminary practice for the shoot to be held: 
at the Cincinnati grounds on the 16th. Supt. Taggert 
was not able to supply enough birds to give all the 
shooters as much sport as they wanted, but those which 
he trapped were by far the best lot which the club 
has had this winter." The day was pleasant, with a fresh 
breeze blowing. George Walker, accounted one of the- 
best wing shots in this section, was decidedly off to-day, 
as he missed 13 birds out of 20. Schreck and Payne 
tied in the first event, the latter winning the shoot-off 
and taking the trophy, a sterling silver berry spoon. 
In the second event Irwin and Payne tied on 8. In 
the shoot-off Irwin won the trophy. He is new at this 
kind of shooting, having taken part but once previous 
to to-day’s events. A miss-and-out event ended th& 
day’s sport, and was won by Payne in a shoot-off. 
Before the live-bird events started, a few targets were 
thrown, D. Pohlar getting 20 and H. Pohlar 17 out of 
25. Koch and Schreck got 2 and 3 respectively out of 
5. The club will begin its monthly money-back tourna¬ 
ments in May. These will be on the same line as last 
year, ten 15-target events. The scores:

There was a very good attendance at the shoot of the 
club on Feb. 12, eight men taking part in the events. 
C. A. Young was high man with 114 out of 125. Payne 
did his best work in the first two events, breaking SS- 
per cent, and finishing in second place with 102. Hola¬ 
day, Jr., is still without his own gun, and his work 
shows’ the effect of using a strange gun. Dea shot up- 
near his old mark in the first two events, but dropped 
behind in the third. In the team match, Holaday, Sr., 
and Schreck defeated Payne and Holaday, Jr., by 6 
targets. This makes the third time that the former team 
has proven to be the better. Schreck did fine work in 
the match, breaking 92 per cent, while Payne went an 
88 per cent. gait. Shooting at twelve pairs of doubles, 
the following scores were made: Young 21, Payne 17, 
Holaday, Jr. 14, Irwin 13. 
The club will be well represented at the live-bird shoot 
on the Cincinnati Gun Club grounds on the 16th, and 
on that day a very interesting match is scheduled as an 
extra attraction, viz., Max Fleischman and Dr. Heyl 
against J. Schreck and J. A. Payne, at 50 birds per man.
