Chicago Gun Club. 
Chicago, Ill., March 4. —With the wind blowing a 
gale from the northeast, only a few shooters concluded 
to come out to the park and test their skill in stopping 
the flight of the targets. MacLachlan made a walkaway 
of it in each event except No. 3, when Barto tried a 
string of 25 with a gun which was new to him, and 
after missing his first target, he broke the next 24 with¬ 
out a miss. Carter was second in both event No. 1 and 
No. 2, while Taggart landed in third place in both 
events. 
Event No. 5 was a match between MacLachlan and 
Taggart, in which they laid their guns down at the 
16yd. mark, went back to 23yds., called pull and then 
ran and picked up the gun and shot. MacLachlan 
broke 10 to Taggart’s 9, some of the targets being 
broken when almost down over the hill. They then 
shot a string from 23yds., in which they tied on 20, and 
as Taggart had enough shooting for one day, Mac tried 
another string from 23yds., again breaking 20, which 
was good shooting considering the way the wind was 
blowing. 
Carter has not been out for some time, and did well 
after about four months’ lay off. 
Miss Sullivan is slowly but surely gaining and im¬ 
proving her scores.

March 5.—Weather conditions were about the same as 
yesterday, with the addition of a drizzling rain, which 
the strong wind drove into the faces of the shooters, 
and made it quite disagreeable. 
First honors in the handicap event went to Ward 
Burton by scoring 45 from the 16yd. mark, Dr. Robb 
getting high amateur score in this event by scoring 44 
out of 50 from 16yds. Taggart broke 42 from the same 
mark, while Flewelling _ scored 41 from the 20yd. mark. 
Eck was next in line with 40 from 19yds., Thwaite mak¬ 
ing the same score from lSyds. Walsh and McGary 
also scored 40 from 16yds. 
Fetherston took first honors in event No. 2 at the 
doubles by breaking' 31 out of 40 from 17yds., Burton 
tying him from the 16yd. mark. 
Mott is coming along fast on the doubles, breaking 27, 
while Eck scored 26. 
Flewelling took first place in event No. 3 with 23 
out of 25. Miller and Thwaite each scored 22, while 
Eck and Crocker were next with 20. 
Event No. 4 brought out the only straight frame 
scored during the afternoon, Burton going through 
without a miss. Flewelling was hot after him by break¬ 
ing 24 out of 25, while Thwaite made another 23, of 
which he had three, also securing two 22s during the 
afternoon. 
Dr. Robb did well in an extra event at doubles, scor¬ 
ing 16 out of 10 pairs, Taggart taking second place with 
a score of 15, while McGary broke 14. 
We are in hopes of getting some better weather soon, 
when we will not only have a good big attendance, but 
will also give the shooters a chance to show what kind 
of scores they can make when conditions are favorable.

Wm. F. Mekkle, Supt. 
Red Lion G. C. Wins DuPont Trophy. 
York, Pa., March 4. —Shooting under conditions ad¬ 
mittedly difficult, the team representing the Red Lion 
Gun Club—Archie Davy, Dr. T. N. Yeagle, Grant Raab, 
Harry Neff and I. H. LaMotte—yesterday scored its 
second victory over the New York and McSherrytown 
teams and won the Du Pont trophy by a margin of 22 
targets. 
The third and deciding shoot was held on the grounds 
of the York City Gun Club yesterday afternoon. A gale 
blowing over the traps during the greater part of the 
contest made good scores almost impossible. At Red 
Lion three weeks ago, when the second shooot in the 
team race was held, the conditions were even worse than 
they were yesterday, and at the first shoot in McSherrys- 
town early in January they were equally as bad as 
yesterday’s. 
I. H. LaMctte, of the Red Lion team made the only 
straight score in yesterday’s shoot. Miller, of the Me 
Sherrystown team, led the field in the number of targets 
broken, by breaking SI out of 100. 
It is but fair to state that members of the York team 
in each of the three shoots shot from the 18yd. mark, 
while all the other shooters stood at 16yds. Another 
shoot, to decide the individual winner of the Du Pont 
trophy, a handsome gold watch fob, will be held on the 
grounds of the Red Lion Gun Club in the near future. 
The team race just concluded was one of the most 
popular contests in the history of trapshooting in this 
section, and did much to stimulate interest in the sport 
in Red Lion, .McSherrystown and York.

Trap af Larchmont. 
The trapshooting members of the Larchmont Yacht 
Club indulged in their usual Sunday pastime on the 
12th, and despite the bad light and generally unfavorable 
weather conditions, some excellent scores were put on 
record. G. L. Bready surprised all by his remarkable 
form, breaking 115 out of 125, and winning the special 
10-target, gun trophy, . Sauer gun, and 125-target handi¬ 
cap events. He tied in the March cup shoot with Dr. 
Short and J. R. Collins, and probably would have an¬ 
nexed that also, had not darkness prevented the shoot- 
off. The scores:

The Palefaces. 
Boston. Mass., March 8.—Another dandy little affair 
was the universal opinion of the Paleface shoot, held 
to-day, fourteen shooters trying their luck with the 
varied program. Mixing up doubles, singles and 18yd. 
shooting seemed to have the Jinx on all, Kirkwood 
alone being in the honor class on average, with Frank 
second, S targets away. Crane, with 79, captured third 
position, with President Charles and Burnes tied for the 
fourth honor. In the handicap match the scratch shooter 
was again high, but Paleface rules allow only one prize 
to a shooter, leaving Crane and Charles tied for first 
place with 91 each. Naturally, the shoot-off was a most 
interesting one, though Crane started in bad with 3 lost 
of his first 5. After that, however, he sure did shoot, 
but Charles was also delivering the goods, and won out 
with a clean lead of 3 targets. Frank, with his new 
single trigger gun, finished second, and after the double 
event proved the trigger o.k.—no other for him now.
