Columbus Gun Club. 
Marcu 17.—The first shoot of the Inter-City League of 
Columbus, Cincinnati and Dayton takes place on Wed- 
nesday, March 21, at Dayton. This series of shoots be- 
tween the above-named cities will be of great interest 
to shooters all over, and will be closely watched through- 
out. The ten-man team, selected from the Columbus 
Gun Club is composed of Messrs. Stanley Rhoads, Wm. 
Webster, H. FE. Smith, James Ward, George B. 
Buchanan, L. W. Cumberland, N. N. Gross, Wm, Fish- 
inger, Chas. Holman and Fred Shattuck. 
Extensive preparations have been under way at Dayton 
to entertain Cincinnati and Columbus, and the fact that 
the Rohrer’s Island Gun Club has it in charge is enough 
said. A great number of shooters will accompany the 
team, as special events will be shot outside the 100-bird 
championship race. All members of the club are invited 
to attend these shoots and help root.

Boston Gun Club. 
Boston, Mass., March 14.—The baker’s dozen trap- 
shooters that assembled at the Boston Gun Club grounds 
to-day were amply repaid for their trouble, the conditions 
being nearly perfect, and could not be improved upon. 
Naturally, with conditions of this kind, the afternoon 
was replete with good scores, all taking a hand at some 
time or other, fifteen clean scores resulting before the 
last shot was fired, two’ of these being in the 25-target 
events—Gleason securing one of these and Roy the other. 
Conner’s 90 per cent. on 130 targets entitles him to 
high average honors, though Roy and Carver had higher 
marks on a smaller number of targets, and from indica- 
tions there would have been no let up, as each target 
was snuffed out just like a puff of smoke. 
Griffiths and Dickey had a merry little game together 
in the prize match, Dickey coming under the wire in the 
lead by a nose; but on the 16yd. line Griffith cleaned up 
a raft of them, and evened up matters with a bird to spare. 
Next week we expect to have another of these ever- 
welcome contests, with the addition of Heer and Butler, 
who will make the shoot look more like a Grand Ameri- 
can Handicap than an ordinary gun club afternoon shoot. 
The two nerviest shooters, Irish and Peabody, came in 
for their share of the honors, each securing one of the 
straights, Peabody’s match score being worthy of a 
veteran. 
“Bufialo Smith” arrived late on the scene, but in plenty 
of time to shoot a few matches with his old friend, the 
Doctor, and made good in the majority of cases without 
the 1-bird handicap the Doctor allows him. 
The regular team men, Frank and Muldown, were 
somewhat out of it; though, barring Frank’s match score, 
he averaged a good 88 per cent., his bad half hour spoiling 
what would otherwise have been near to the honor mark, 
Muldown’s new gun was a little bit obstreperous at first, 
but in the 25-bird events proved itself to be a winner, 
just as its owner claimed it is. Other scores:

At Denver. 
THERE is nothing going on in the trapshooting world 
in Denver, Colo. The Sedam Club, where all the shoots 
are held, has been deserted for the past two weeks for the 
keener sport of ducking. Sunday, with zero weather, a 
number of enthusiastic sportsmen went out to try their 
luck. One of the gunners walked twelve miles, and shot 
two mallard ducks, three canvasbacks, a teal and a red- 
head, and felt ccmpensated. Mr. Howard, Mr. Hood 
Waters, of Baltimore, and Mr. Tinckler, of the E. I. 
duPont Co., leave on the 14th for a trip to Colorado 
Springs and Pueblo. A Socrat TRAMP. 
Pequea Gun Club. 
LancasTErR, Pa,, March 14.—Only a few of the mem- 
bers of the Pequea Gun Club braved the snow and cold 
weather to come to the weekly shoot to-day. <A high 
wind interfered considerably with the flight of the targets, 
but some fair work was done, in spite of this handicap. 
Miss Ricker was present and did some very creditable 
work, especially in the cup event, breaking 21, and win- 
ning a point on the much-sought-for prize, by the aid of 
her small handicap. Scores, each event at 10 targets,
