MERIDEN FIRE ARMS CO., MERIDEN, CONN. 
Hyde Park Gun Club. 
Cincinnati.— The boat races on the Ohio attracted 
some of the regulars, and only nine shooters were 
present Aug. 27. The day was a delightful one, and fair 
scores were made. The club advertised a jack rabbit 
shoot for this date, with a program of 150 targets, but 
owing to small attendance this was called off and only 
practice shooting indulged in. Keplinger was high man 
in the 100-target shoot with 89. De Mar ran a close 
second with 88. In the Du Pont trophy event these 
two tied for first on 45, neither having any handicap. 
Froldiger shot in excellent form to-day, breaking 85 per 
cent. Rugg had one of his oft days and accounted for 
only 86, when he really should have been up in the 90s. 
All arrangements for the tri-state tournament on Sept. 
5 and 6 are complete, as was to be expected with two 
such hustlers as Rugg and Phillips in charge, and all 
indications point to a big crowd, and a good representa¬ 
tion from Indiana and Kentucky, as well as from the 
Buckeye State. A squad has already been entered from 
Lexington, Ky., and one from Paris, Ky. Dayton, O., 
has a squad of good ones coming. The famous Pomeroy 
squad. Young, Doc Shattuck, Gribble, Stanberry and 
Sperry, have sent in their names. Lon Fisher will bring 
a bunch of the best in Columbus. From Indianapolis a 
squad has been entered. The winner of the trophy this 
year will know he’s been in a shooting match. A buffet 
lunch will he served 
on 
each 
day. The scores:

Nine shooters were on hand for the weekly shoot on 
Aug. 27, a better bunch than has been at the grounds 
for several weeks. There were two or three new ones 
among the number, which is an encouraging sign, and 
they should be looked after and induced to come again.^ 
Ralph Trimble was high man with 48. Heilman shot 
in very good form and got second on 42. 
The tournament committee has begun its work in 
preparation for the tournament in September. The dates 
will probably be the 27th and 28th, and every effort will 
be made to gather a big crowd. The members should 
take hold and help; one good way to do this is to enter 
for the two days, and show up on the firing line instead 
of occupying chairs on the house veranda. To-day’s
