Columbus Gun Club. 
Columbus, O., May 6. —All was needed was warm 
weather to bring the shooters out again. Some more 
new faces. Come again. We want you with us. Webb 
shot the best, breaking 24 out of 25 from 21yds. The 
writer got only 22. The grounds are being put in shape 
for the State shoot and Grand American Handicap, 
Both promise to be record-breakers. Now is the time 
to join the gun club. Only $5 the first year; dues $3. 
A nice lot of fellows to be with, and a comfortable club 
house. Hill broke his first 15 straight. Webb got some 
70 without a miss. Shattuck was showing what his 
shells could do. Those 90 per cent, shooters from the 
City on the Lake are still there. No return match in 
sight yet. What the Columbus boys will do to them 
when they do come down will be a plenty. May 19 will 
be the next monthly shoot, with 150-bird program.

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. 
i 
At the same shoot Mr. G. E. Painter, the well 
known and skillful amateur, broke 129 “Straight,” \ 
beating the ground record. L 
L 
Messrs. German and Painter both used Winchester 
“Leader” Shells—regular stock loads. Their ex¬ 
ceptionally high scores add another stone in the 
colossal monument of proof that Winchester Shells \ 
are the peers of all others for uniformity, pattern \ 
and speed.

birds, thrown from expert traps. Everybody welcome
