PARTICULAR ATTENTION 
is directed to the fact that all of Mr. Day’s shooting was done with PETERS REGULAR FACTORY LOADS, purchased from dealers where the 
various tournaments were held. His shells were not special in any sense, but were regular stock goods such as can be procured trom any 
PETERS dealer. YOU can get this SUPERIOR AMMUNITION as easily as ordinary loads. You may not always score 97.282 but you will 
average better than with any other make. 
Shoot the shells that have established another World’s Record—97.287—the kind 
that do not have to be used in any special make ol gun to give best results.

Passaic County Gun Club. 
The Passaic County Gun Club held its weekly shoot 
on Feb 4, at Clifton. Despite the fact that a stiff 
gale blew across the grounds, some good scores were 
made. First honors went to Dr. Smith, who has shown 
good form during the past three or four shoots. Bowes, 
Carless and Hudson, also came in for prizes. 
The weekly shoots of the Passaic County Gun Club 
are becoming very popular, and always draw a large 
number of spectators. n 
Secretary VV. Dutcher, of the Passaic County Club, is 
arranging for a monster shoot to be held Washington’s 
Birthday, Feb. 22. A long list of prizes will be awarded 
the winners of the different targets, and a few specials 
will be added for the members. The shoot for the pres¬ 
ident’s fob proved to be such a success that arrange¬ 
ments are now under way for another such event: All 
gunners are invited to participate in their shoots. Scores:

Feb. 11.—At the Passaic County Gun Club regular 
weekly shoot at the Clifton shooting grounds, ten mem¬ 
bers and about an equal number of visitors were out 
to-day. Several left early and motored over to Mont¬ 
clair Gun Club to take part in the team match between 
(Orange and Montclair. Every arrangement is being 
completed for our shoot on Washington’s Birthday, and 
if the weather is favorable, we expect a great crowd. 
The management is going to leave the conditions under 
which the program is to be shot to the wish of the 
majority of shooters present. Prizes will be provided, 
and if they desire sweepstake, or both, the club will be 
pleased to accommodate them, or shooters can shoot 
for the price of targets only. 
The following are the scores of yesterday’s shoot:

Ohio and Kentucky Revolver League. 
The Cincinnati Revolver Club and First Regiment 
(O. N. G.) teams shot their match in the League series 
on Feb. 10, at the armory range. Some very good in¬ 
dividual work was done during the evening. The rapid 
fire round still remains a hoodoo for all the contestants, 
although they are improving in this style of shooting. 
Elmer Hake and Sergt. Miller, of the regiment, led in 
this round with 39 and 32 respectively, while Elliot Pugh 
made high score for the citizens with 30. Dr. E. H. 
Thompson, of the Revolver Club, carried off the in¬ 
dividual honors of the match, getting 168 in the four 
slow fire rounds, putting 14 shots in the black, best 5- 
shot score in his second round; two 9s and three 10s, 
total 48, and high total of 197. Capt. Myer, of the 
soldiers, was second with 1S6; he also made second 
high score at slow fire of 15S. 
The League rule limiting the revolver used to one of 
.32cal.. with 6%in. barrel, has been changed to comply 
with that of the National Revolver Association, and it is 
thought that this will result in more teams joining the 
League. The Cincinnati Revolver Club has joined the 
National Association, and many of the members will 
enter such of the competitions as are still open for this 
season. The next League match will be shot on Feb. 24, 
between the teams of the Cincinnati Police and the 
First Regiment. Scores: 
Team match, 20 shots slow fire and 5 shots rapid fire 
(20 seconds), possible 250; 20yds., standard American 
target, .32cal. revolvers, full service ammunition:
