Mountain View Gun Club. 
Troy, N. Y., Dec. 21.—The regular weekly shoot of 
the Mountain View Gun Club was held this afternoon 
at Syracuse. It was an ideal day for trapshooting and 
a good attendance was present, twenty-six of the mem¬ 
bers taking part in the day’s programme. 
The sport of trapshooting is becoming quite popular 
here in this city, and the large number of spectators 
here to-day showed their enthusiasm by the way they 
applauded the good shots made by the marksmen. 
The club had as their guest to-day the genial Doc 
Welling, from Mechanicsville. He, like Maxwell, is a 
one-armed shooter, and he rolled up a very good score 
to-day, breaking 37 out of 55. 
In the contest for the Ithaca gun, Harris again was 
high. This is the second leg of this event, and if 
Harris can keep up the clip he is shooting just at 
present and with his handicap of 10 added targets, he 
will make the boys hustle for the Ithaca gun. Scores:

Frenchfown Gun Club. 
Fkenchtown, N. J., Dec. 28.—Mr. O. N. Ford, the 
noted Iowa amateur, was high gun for the day. Mr. 
\\ ilson, of the local club, was second; Mr. Schoverling, 
of New York, was third. 
Mr. Ford is now making his home at Shamokin, Pa., 
and expects to wrest the Pennsylvania championship from 
some of his Eastern friends in 1908. 
The clay was ideal and the grounds are among the 
best in eastern Pennsylvania, and the targets regulation, 
with not a breath of air to disturb them.

Hudson Valley Rod and Gun Club. 
Glens Falls, N. Y., Dec. 25.—A few of the boys, wish¬ 
ing to keep in touch with the game, got together 01 . 
Christmas morning and enjoyed an hour’s sport trying 
to see how many of the clays, they could break. The 
trap seemed to feel that there was something doing, and 
pushed the targets out for a good 50yds. every time, with 
an extra twist on the left-quarterers. The scores follow;

Independent Gun Club. 
Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 28.—Spring-like conditions 
prevailed at the monthly target shoot of the Independent 
Gun Club, held this afternoon on the Keystone League 
grounds, at Iiolmesburg Junction. Sixteen members at¬ 
tended and placed totals in the second contest for the 
A. H. Fox hammerless gun. Notwithstanding lack ot 
wind and mild conditions, only one or two good scores 
were made. This particular trap throws a swift, high 
target, which proves deceptive to all but a few. G. b. 
McCarty was high gun with 90 out of 100 targets. H. S. 
Welles came next with 86 , J. A. R. Elliott and Jesse 
Griffiths 82, President Eames and C. H. Newcomb 
fourth position on 81. Club handicap governed first 
event; thereafter sliding scale, according to score. 
Straights and 19s shot irom 20yds., 18s from 19yds., 17s 
from 18yds, 16s from 17yds., and under 16 from regula¬ 
tion rise. . ... 
Heretofore 89 has been the high amateur score over 
this trap, so McCarty’s 90 raised it a peg. Silver spoons 
were offered in three percentage classes, Griffiths, Shew 
and Wickes being the fortunate winners. Scores: 
G S McCarty, 20yds.

Sistersville Shooting Club. 
Sistersville, W. Va.—Now that the hunting season 
is practically closed, and taking it that our shooters 
are beginning to wonder if it isn’t about time to _ be¬ 
gin to turn their attention to the trap, we have decided 
to break the ice by giving our mid-winter tournament 
on Jan. 16. We have an exceptionally warm club house, 
with plenty of natural gas, and will have no difficulty 
in keeping everybody comfortable. We have just re¬ 
cently installed a new trap, and this will be the first 
shoot over it. Our programme telling all about it will 
be out in a few days. _ ,
