Hudson Valley Rod and Gun Club. 
( Glens Falls, N. Y., April 25.—The second tournament 
of the Hudson Valley Rod and Gun Club was pulled off 
to-day with an attendance of forty-one shooters, notwith- 
j standing' the rain, which kept a number away. The entire 
i programme of twelve events was carried out, and over 
j 45W targets thrown during the day. Had it not been for 
i the rain, which started in the morning and kept up all 
j -day, we would have had a record-breaking crowd. 
The trade was represented by Ncaf Apgar, Sim Glover, 
Jack Fanning, A. E. Sibley, H. H. Stevens, Geo. R. 
t Ginn, and Mr. Smith. 
The shooting of the professionals was watched with 
1 interest by the crowd, Mr. Apgar’s score being the best 
ever made on the grounds. Mr. Ginn assisted in the 
office, while Mr. Fanning, Mr. Stevens and the others 
helped keep things going outside, all of which was 
greatly appreciated by the club, and the trade representa¬ 
tives have certainly made many friends here. 
For the amateurs, Valentine, of Albany, and Roberts, 
i of Troy, were high guns, and divided first average. 
Milliman. of Troy, won second average. Brown, of 
Glen? Falls, third, and Witt, of Sandy Hill, fourth. The 
1 shooting on the whole was good, and several straight 
1 scores made. 
The team shoot was won by a team of five men from 
the Mechanicville Gun Club with a score of 103 out of a 
possible 125; the Mountain View Gun Club, of Trov, 
being second with 98, while the Hudson Valley scored 93.

Orange Gun Club. 
Orange. N. J., April 25.—The regular weekly shoots of 
tlie Orange Gun Club have not attracted many members 
for the last few weeks. Last week only six put in an ap¬ 
pearance, notwithstanding the first leg for a $100 Smith 
gun was the attraction. Hopper took the leg, which was 
at 50 targets, handicap, scoring 34, 10, 44. 
This week the third leg for a Walsrodc cup was the 
feature, and Hopper annexed this, scoring 19-5-24. Mosler 
accounted for the fourth leg for the April*.cup, and is 
now tied with Hilsinger, Baldwin and Hopper for it. 
The tie will be settled at the next shoot. Mosler’s score 
was 20-3-23.
