FOREST AND STREAM. 

Columbus Gun Club. 
Saturday afternoon, March 24, was enjoyed by the 
gentlement present. The line of snow drifts that have 
piled up about the club grounds showed that there had 
been some winter weather in Arlington. Mr. John R. 
Taylor and Mr. D. D. Gross were present, and Mr. 
Taylor carried away the high score, breaking 138 out of 
a possible 150. A hungry hawk came quartering over 
the firing line just as the last event was about to begin, 
and Taylor, Gross and Rhoads opened fire. Taylor and 
Gross both hit him, and then Rhoads threw in both 
barrels, and the hawk turned somersaults in the air. 
Arrangements for the big tournament on May 9, 10 and 
11 are going on merrily, and it is reasonable to assume 
from the present outlook that there will be a very large 
attendance. The elegant big programme will be ready 
to mail about April 20. The Cincinnati and Dayton 
teams line up here on May 8 for the third interstate con- 
test, and this will make four days’ shooting.
