Media, Pa., vs. Wilmington. Del. 
WitmiInctTon, Del., Feb. 24.—The members of the 
Media, Pa., Gun Club visited the Wilmington Gun Club’s 
grounds to-day, the occasion being the second of the 
series of home-and-home matches arranged between the 
two clubs. In the first match, shot at Media, on Jan. 
27, the home team was victorious, but by the narrow mar 
gin of two targets only, the scores standing 404 to 40. 
The match was shot under original conditions: Each 
club was permitted as many as twenty members at the 
score, but only the ten highest totals were allowed to be 
counted as the club’s team total. The return match. 
shot to-day, was under the same conditions, and Mediz 
managed to put in eighteen men, while the home tea1 
sent to the score just twenty men. At Media Wilming- 
ton could only rake up fifteen men to Media’s twenty 
but both races have been productive of much sport anc 
interest, and this new system seems well adapted for 
team races between clubs. 
The weather was pleasant, and everything really in 
favor of good scores, but Wilmington’s total of 483 out 
of 500, a team average of 86.6 per cent., is one to be 
proud of. Media’s total was 8 higher than on the home 
grounds, being 412, a team average of 82.4 per cent., 
victory resting with the home team by 21 targets. 
Scores were:

After the above match was over, it was decided to 
shoot another series between the two clubs, the first of 
the new series being set for March 24 on the grounds of 
the Media Gun Club. The date for the return match on 
the Wilmington Gun Club’s grounds will Pe — oo

At the Washington’s Birthday shoot held by the 
Mechanicville, N. Y., Game Protective Association, fifteen 
shooters participated in the regular events, and thirty- 
one in the special event. The feature of the day’s shoot 
ing was the tie-off shoot by J. B. Saunders and H. H 
Valentine. Their scores in the first six events on the 
regular programme decided this contest, which was won 
by Mr. Saunders, who broke 90 out of 100, and Mr. Val 
entine broke 84 out of 100. 
The following are the percentages in the regular events 
shooting at 175 targets:

Mr. J. B. Saunders won first high average, which was 
$3, and H. H. Valentine second high average, $2 
Mr. Heath was present. Mr. Heer expected to be 
present, but was unexpectedly called to Buffalo. 
The committee is working hard to make the Decoration 
Day shoot a success, and hope to attract a larger number 
of shooters than they did last Decoration Day. 
The new trap was tried out at this shoot and worked 
very nicely. About 8200 targets were thrown, with a very 
small percentage of breaks from the trap. 
There will probably be two large merchandise events 
at our Decoration Day shoot, beside a lot of added 
money. We do not think anybody will make a mistake 
in coming to Mechanicville on Decoration Day. | 
The expert shooters who have been on our grounds 
say that we have the finest laid out ground in the State, 
and a nice cozy club house and a bunch of fellows who 
are always there with the glad hand.

ville will be furnished by :
