Lillie Rock Country Club Tournament. 
Little Rock, Ark., April 25—The inaugural tourna¬ 
ment of the Country Club was a success in every re¬ 
spect. Aside from being favored by good weather, it 
was graced with a splendid attendance, thirty-five shoot¬ 
ers participating during the day, and of this number 
twenty-one shot through the entire programme, borne 
very good scores were made, though nothing extraordi¬ 
nary; but the shooting was really much better than the 
scores indicate. A fierce gale prevailed during the 
entire day, and this made the targets very erratic, many 
a one managed to duck or rise at an inopportune 
and this caused many of the contestants to think haid 
things and wish for more ideal conditions. 
H. J. Borden, the well-known representative, was high 
among the trade representatives with 183 out of 200. II. 
D. Freeman, another well-known expert, finished sec¬ 
ond, only one behind Borden, with a total of 18— This 
pair had quite a race for the honor, and it was not 
until the last event that Borden managed to forge to 
the front and finish there. J. K. Lewis was third pro¬ 
fessional with 165. 
In the amateur class T. W. Adams, of Manila, Ark., 
sprung quite a surprise bv finishing in the van with the 
fine total of 180. Mr. Adams was comparatively un¬ 
known to Arkansas trapshooters, and when he took the 
lead early in the race and maintained it throughout, it 
was evident that he possessed the necessary nerve to 
accomplish this feat. Second honors went to that well 
known shot E. C. Arnold, of Pine Bluff. Mr. Arnold 
has shot but little of late, but with the exception of the 
third event, shot consistently throughout, and was the 
only amateur to make a straight in the 25-bird events, 
his total for the day being 175. F. W. Barton, of 
Dyersburg. Tenn., finished third, only one bird behind 
Air-. Arnold. 
Straight scores were hard to get for most of the con¬ 
testants. There were sixteen made during the day, and 
a vast majoritv of these fell to three of the principals. 
Freeman got four—one a 25 straight and three 15s, one 
of which was made in the only preliminary event. Adams 
got three, and Arnold got three also, one being a 25. 
The other straight scores fell to Borden, Miller, Proctor, 
Lewis, Campbell, and Simmermacher, each of whom 
managed to get one. 
The trade was represented by H. J. Borden, Memphis, 
Tenn.; H. D. Freeman. Atlanta, Ga.; J. K. Lewis, J. W . 
Hinkle, F. D. Clark and Paul R. Litzke. 
The out-of-town shooters Hn attendance were J. T. 
Lloyd, G. W. Clements, E. C. Arnold, E. A. Howell, 
W. ’ll. Simpson. E. V oss, and Wm. Bovefte, of Pine 
Bluff; A. H. Campbell and E. M. Carl Lee, Augusta; 
J. W. Adams, Manila; W. R. McCracken, Success; W. 
bimmermaeher, and C. D. Conrey, Stuttgart, and F. \\ . 
Barton, Dyersburg, Tenn. 
A special prize of $5 was given to the amateur shoot¬ 
ing through the entire programme and making the 
lowest average. This was won bv Lee Omohundro, a 
local shooter, who also managed the shoot, which, in a 
measure, accounts for his poor showing. The success 
of the tournament is largely due to the efforts of Mr. 
Omohundro, as it was he who conceived the idea of 
having a shoot and who so ably executed the same.

WINCHESTER 
Shotgun Shells and Shotguns 
Four big tournaments were held during the week of April 
20-25, and all of them rendered honors where honors were justly 
due; that is, to Winchester Shotguns and Winchester Shells 
—the Red W Brand. Read the record, which is a convincing 
story of their superiority :

J. M. HAWKINS. 
Amateur Championship —Won by 
Charles Rankin, shooting Winchester 
"Leader” Shells and a Winchester Shot¬ 
gun. 
Amateur High Average —Won by 
E. W. Arnold, with a score of 605-650 
targets, 93 per cent., shooting Winchester 
"Leader” Shells. 
JACKSONVILLE (Fla.) SPRING TOURNAMENT 
Professional High Average —Won 
by J. Mowell Hawkins, who broke 392- 
400 targets, 98 per cent., shooting Win¬ 
chester "Leader” Shells and a Winchester 
Shotgun.

Average Cup —Won by C. G. West- 
cott, who broke 376-400 targets, 94 per

Winchester Shotgun. 
GROESBECK (Texas) TOURNAMENT

er cent., shooting Winchester "Leader” Shells and a Winchester Shotgun.

96% per cent., using Winchester Shells

PENNSYLVANIA STATE CHALLENGE TROPHY 
Won by W. T. Speiser, of Danville, Pa., who killed 25 live pigeons straight from 
the 33-yard mark, shooting Winchester "Leader” Shells. 
Shoot the Red W Combination at Columbus 
tournament, not tieing shooters, did everything possible 
to make it pleasant for the visitors; and the manner in 
which they succeeded is best indicated by the universal 
expressions of satisfaction by the participants. I he un¬ 
qualified success of this tournament should lend im¬ 
petus to this branch of sport among the members of the 
Country Club, and in the near future this should vie 
with golf as one of its chief attractions. 
At noor hour adjournament was taken lor lunen, 
which was served in the handsome and spacious dining 
room of the club house , , , 
The programme consisted of twelve target events, ten 
15s and two 25s. The purse was divided Rose-Jack Rabbit 
system and there was $100 added money. Scores follow:
