was some thmg' doing at the club grounds on 
April JO ten shooters keeping the trap boys busy until 
almost dark. The day was cloudy and threatening, but 
no rain fell, and barring a little wind, the shooting con¬ 
ditions were excellent. In the trophy event four of the 
contestants tied on perfect scores, including their handi¬ 
caps, and after two shoot-offs had been run off, two of 
the four were still tied. In the second shoot-off the 
handicaps were cut in half, and Luverne and Payne 
dropped out with totals of 24 each; Woodbury and 
Keifer each broke 24, the former missing his 24th target, 
and their handicaps gave them a perfect score. It was 
getting too dark to see bv this time, so the tie will be 
decided at the next trophy shoot on May 15. Payne 
H 1311 * n ac * ua I breaks with 47; Luverne, Keifer 
and Woodbury took second place on 42 each. 
.u P' White, in th e practice events, did better work 
than he did on the day before at the Cincinnati grounds, 
and was much nearer to his mark. George Dameron has 
so far recovered that he shot to-day with no bad effects, 
and will once more be one of the regulars. His score 
showed his lack of practice, but he will soon get back 
where he belongs. 
_ Th ^, club Wl11 hold . its first money-back shoot on May 
7. lhe program will be ten 15-target events, with a 
total entrance of $14, and an optional sweep of $2 on the 
entire program The first five events will be divided 
Rose system, 5, 3, 2, 1; and the last five, percentage 
system, 35, 30, -0 and 15 per cent. The club guarantees 
that every amateur shooting the entire program shall re- 
ceive 511 back, so that he will be out for the targets only. 
Ihese shoots were very popular last season, and judging 
front the number of letters received from shooters in¬ 
quiring when they were to be started again, they will be 
even more so this year. Everyone is invited to attend 
lhe shoots will be held on the first Sunday of May 
June, July, August, September, October and November!

It was much like an all-star performance at the In¬ 
dianapolis (Ind.) Gun Club Saturday, April 29. Parry 
evidently bent on evening up what he lost by three 
months absence from the traps, added a little to the 
P C , e h L has maintained since his return. In practice he 
broke 96 out of 100, which included two straights, while 
Dixon and Hymer each posted one 20. Burr, professional 
was credited with two of them. 
In j th , e „ trophy event Parry maintained his pace and

520 STRAIGHT —129 SRAIGHT 
w 
Some Very Classy Shooting 
Done On The Herron Hill 
Gun Club Grounds, With 
w 
Winchester 
“Leader” Shells, Regular Stock Loads. 
At a complimentary shoot given for him by the ! 
Herron Hill Gun Club of Pittsburg, on April 26th, 
Lester S. German broke 320 “Straight.” The tar- ' 
gets were thrown full fifty yards and at regulation 
angles. ^ 
At the same shoot Mr. G. E. Painter, the well 
known and skillful amateur, broke 129 “Straight,” 
beating the ground record. ; 
Messrs. German and Painter both used Winchester { 
“Leader” Shells—regular stock loads. Their ex- J 
ceptionally high scores add another stone in the | 
colossal monument of proof that Winchester Shells \ 
are the peers of all others for uniformity, pattern I 
and speed. |

Cincinnati Gun Club. 
The attendance at the grounds on April 29 was not so 
large as usual, owing to the rainy weather. But half a 
dozen of the regulars went out and shot at 100 targets 
between the showers. Hammersmith made high score 
of 91, with Johnson dropping into second place on 88. 
lhe trophy shoot was not milled off, as so Few shooters 
were present. Mr. E. O. White, of Butterprint, Ky., 
was a welcome visitor, but was not shooting in as good 
form as usual. Heilman shot a very nice race, though 
we have. seen him do much better. Payne did not do 
himself justice. It must be that he doesn’t like the wet. 
Dr. Bird also fell down quite a little from the mark he 
has set at other shoots. 
On April 30 four shooters visited the grounds and 
shot at i00 targets, besides a few for practice. J. Penn, 
of Dayton, O., one of the old members of the club, 
was present and gave Holaday a close race for first place, 
finishing only 2 targets behind him. Sampson came next, 
But not with the score we look for from him. Harring¬ 
ton is new at the game, and his score of 46 out of 75 is 
by no means a bad one. The club will hold a money- 
back shoot on May 21, and every shooter who happens 
to be in this locality is invited to attend, and may be 
sure of a warm welcome. There will be no shooting at 
the grounds on May 7, as the members will attend the 
money-back tournament of the Northern Kentucky Gun 
Club on that date.
