FOREST AND STREAM 
[March 4, 1911. 
Y OU know mallards—wisest and wariest of all 
ducks- Solomons of the air. You can’t knock 
down mallards with a paddle nor can you get them 
with a gun that plasters its shots all over the face , 
of creation. 
A mallard shot is generally a long shot, and long 
shots require a hard-shooting, close-shooting gun. 
That’s why the long-headed man Mho goes to a 
mallard country takes a Lefever. When he swings 
it on a towering pair of mallards he does not ques¬ 
tion the result. He know it— 
TWO CLEAN KILLS 
The reason a Lefever kills clean and sure and 
far is Lefever Taper Boring. i 
But if you buy a Lefever for the taper boring 
alone, you will get more than your money’s worth. 
For insiance, you will never be handicapped with 
looseness at the hinge joint. The exclusive Lefever 
screw compensates for a year’s wear by a trifling 
turn that you make yourself with a screwdriver.

ver simplicity and strength make the $28 gun the 
peer of any 850 gun on the market. Upwards to

Northern Kentucky Gun Club. 
It has been many weeks since so many shooters have 
attended a club event as were present on Feb. 2fi—fifteen 
men took their places on the firing line, and nearly all 
of them shot in all the events. The spring-like tempera¬ 
ture was responsible for the turnout, and in spite of the 
hazy condition of the atmosphere and a strong cross- 
wind, which made the targets rather difficult, some good 
scores were made. Bert Call, the well-known trade rep¬ 
resentative. of Newark, O.. and J. A. Payne, one of 
Cincinnati's crackerjacks, had a close race for first 
place, the former winning by only one target, with a 
score of 92 to 91. Luther Squier, of Pittsburg, got in 
third place, on a score lower than his average by several 
targets, hut he had bad luck in the second and third 
events, which cut his total down. “Sunday” got back 
into the game to-day, and was fourth man. He used to 
be one of the best shots in the Cincinnati Club, but has 
done no shooting for several years; a little steady prac¬ 
tice would put him back where he belongs. Darton, of 
Portland, Me., a popular trade man, came over to look 
on, but could not resist the temptation to take part in 
the sport, the result was a low score, made with a bor¬ 
rowed gun. J. B. C. has not been out for some time, 
but a rest has evidently done him good, as he put up a 
somewhat better score than usual, and improved in each 
event, missing but one target in the last 20. Frohliger 
was too busy to do any shooting at Hyde Park on the 
25th, so came over to get his weekly sport here, and 
put up a very good race. Woodbury shows the lack 
of practice, as his work to-day was not nearly up to his 
usual mark, when he is in good form. George Dameron 
has not yet recovered his health so as to be able to 
shoot, but is slowly improving, and we hope will be 
with us again before long. Uncle John. Dea staved in 
to the end, as he always does, but he did not make so 
good a showing as usual. Richards’ gun does not fit 
liim exactlv, and he attributes his misses to this cause. 
Something' is surely the matter, as he generally gets 
nearer 90 than 80 per cent. The team match to-day was 
the fourth of the series between these teams, and for 
the first time the youngsters, Holaday, Jr., and Payne, 
were victorious. It was a close finish, and the old- 
timers promise to reverse things next week.

East Millstone Gun Club. 
East Millstone. N. J., Feb. 23. —The sixth annual 
shoot of the East Millstone Gun Club was held on the 
club’s grounds, Washington’s Birthday. Twenty shooters 
faced the traps, and high gun for the day turned up in 
R. C. Stryker, the crack of the Whitehouse Gun Club. 
Van Cleef, of the home club, was second, shooting 
steadily throughout, and Morgan, of the Bergen Beach 
delegation, was third. 
The championship of Somerset county and the right 
to hold the Fleischmann cup for one year was won by 
W. T. Laird, of Franklin Park, N. J., and a member of 
the home club. The competition in this event was keen. 
Welsh, Jackson and Laird were all- tied on 40 out of 50. 
In the shoot-off, under the same conditions, Laird won. 
A fine case of articles used in “first aid to the injured” 
was nresented to the club, and was shot for after the 
regular program had been completed. During events 
9 and 10 the wind had fallen, and some fine scores 
were made in this race, which was at 50 targets. Laird, 
shooting in fine form, got a straight, and emerged the 
winner by 46 breaks. Events 5 and 6 constituted the 
championship race. . 
The Millstone boys were glad to see a delegation from 
the Bergen Beach Gun Club, as well as shooters from 
Plainfield, New Brunswick, and other nearby towns. 
The best of good-fellowship prevailed, and every one 
vowed to come again at the next shoot of the club. The

Western Connecticut Trapshooters’ League. 
Danbury, Conn., Feb. 20.—A meeting of representa¬ 
tive trapshooters of western Connecticut was held at 
the Seaside Outing Club’s house, on Saturday afternoon 
which resulted in forming the Western Connecticut 
Trapshooters’ League, with a membership of six gun 
clubs. The clubs of which the League is made up are 
Pahquioque, of Danbury; Bethel, of Bethel; Seaside, of 
Bridgeport; Mattatuclc, of Waterbury; New Haven, of 
New Haven, and Hill Side, of Long Hill. 
The League is the result of the members of the 
Pahquioque Club, of this city taking the initiative in its 
formation. Edward H. Bailey, of Danbury, was unani¬ 
mously elected president of the new organization and the 
other officers are as follows; Vice-President, W. Rice, 
of New Haven; Secretary-Treasurer, Dwight W. Hall, 
of Bridgeport; Directors, W. G. Olmstead, of Danbury; 
W. I!. Judd, of Bethel; Dr. E. M. Johnson, of New 
Haven; Charles Sherwood, of Bridgeport; Samuel Cut¬ 
ter, of Long Hill, and Peter Fitzhenry, of Waterbury. 
During a discussion previous to the actual forming of 
the League, it was voted that an association be formed 
not only to create increased interest in trapshooting, but 
to take up the protection and propagation of the fish 
and game of the State and work for the enactment of 
better laws by the Legislature to these ends, this idea 
of the representatives being that in a union of clubs 
there would be strength for concerted action. 
The plans of the League are to give tournaments 
under the auspices of each club in the union, starting 
May 1 with a shoot at Bethel, May 30 at New Haven, 
Tuly 29 at Danbury, at Waterbury in September, and at 
Bridgeport and Long Hill upon dates to be decided on 
later. 
There will be five-man teams representing the clubs 
at each tournament, and this is expected to increase the 
attendance, as each club can enter as many teams as it 
wishes, the team winning the most legs at the end of 
the season being declared the champion of the League. 
The League will also offer a trophy for the high gun 
for the series of shoots. The tournaments will be reg¬ 
istered with the Interstate Association. 
The League starts with the brightest prospects, as 
some of the most active members of the six clubs of 
which it is made up are the men instrumental in its 
formation, and with E. H. Bailey, of Danbury, at its 
head during the crucial test of its first year of existence 
it should develop into one of the strongest organizations 
of its kind in New England. 
Buffalo Audubon Gun Club. 
Buffalo, N. Y., Feb. 21.—George F. Fish, the Lyn- 
donville thresher, who won the high average on Jan. 1, 
again demonstrated his superiority in trapshooting yes¬ 
terday at the Audubon shoot, and was high gun, de¬ 
feating Stevens and Glover, both professionals. His 
score of 73 out of 80 was high enough to defeat all the 
others. . , 
Dr. W. H. Wootton shared the honors with Mr. Fish 
in winning the Class A badge, also the Reed trophy and 
breaking 19 targets for each event. 
Dr. Burke and Will ImhofT won again yesterday, this 
being their fourth consecutive win. 
It has been suggested that these two be given their 
prizes for their respective classes and begin all over 
again, if, in this way, there might be some chance of 
the others winning. 
There was some very excellent double target shooting, 
and Covert was high with 52 out of 60. Lambert fol¬ 
lowed with 51, and Fish next with 50. These are scores 
which are very hard to beat, and will win in most any 
company. Scores:
