The proof of the Cartridge is in the shooting. The United States Army, 
by careful tests, have proven the UV. S. Cartridges to be the most 
accurate and reliable.

Cincinnati, O., Gun Club. 
Tue weather on April 1 was all that could have been 
desired, and a good-sized crowd assembled at _ the 
grounds. Fred Stone could not resist the temptation to 
make a farewell visit with the boys. A 100-target race 
was shot with eleven entries. Maynard, Bleh and Ahlers 
were high with 88 each. The scores: Maynard 88, 
Bleh 88, Ahlers 88, Trimble 86, Dick 88, Bonser 80, Cady 
78, Bullerdick 76, F, Stone 7 12; Miles (ile ‘Gambell 66. 
‘April 7 was a warm, sunny day, but the attendance 
was light. 
The members of the team will be on hand April 15, and 
Gambell will put them through a drill, calculated to 
instill nerve enough into each man to keep him steady 
in a hot race, and that’s the kind of a proposition the 
Cincy’s are up against in these tri-city team matches. 
Among the visitors to-day was Mr. C. E. Fultz, of 
Richmond, Va. He was also here on the 6th, and made 
friends as well as good scores. Ahlers is at French Lick, 
where he will stay a short time and get rested up for the 
match on April 15, when he proposes to redeem his 
reputation and put up a score about 20 better than he 
made at Dayton. For the first time in many weeks 
Tuttle appeared on the firing line, and did some pretty 
good work, considering his lack of practice. Gambell 
has found himself again. To-day he broke 47 out of 50. 
In the practice events Bonser was ahead with 160 out of 
200._ Richmond came next with 159 out of 180. A race 
at 150 targets was shot, in which Bonser missed but 7 
targets, breaking 95 out of the last 100. Faran_ came 
second with 135. He got 92 out of the first 100. This is 
the kind of work we expect on April 18, from every 
member of the team, and it will keep the victory in Cin- 
cinnati. The scores:

These scores include those of week ending April 1. Of 
the remaining four shoots in the Clements trophy, Ahlers, 
Gambell, Maynard and Williams must compete in all to 
qualify. The final shoot for the Ackley trophy will be 
on April 28. 
Ohio Trap Notes. 
The Rohrer’s Island Gun Club, of Dayton, opened 
their season of thirty weeks on April 4 with a good at- 
tendance. On the first Wednesday in each month the 
club medal is shot for, the winner to wear it as cham- 
pion until the next month or until he is defeated. This 
event is at 25 targets, with a handicap of extra targets to 
shoot at. Chas. F. Miller won to-day with a score of 24 
out of 29 shot at, and kept his record of winning the 
first shoot of each season clear. Hanauer and Mack, 
with handicaps of 5 and 4 respectively, were second with 
23 each, Honest John Schaerf (9) came third with 22; 
Oswald (5), Oldt (5) and Cain (4) were next with 21 
each; Sapp (10) 19, and Ruff (10) 16. The members this 
year ‘have been divided into classes A, B, and C, and the 
winner in each class receives a certificate for 50 cents, 
payable by the treasurer. No members of Class B were 
present. The winner in Class A was Mack, with 22 out 
of 25. Oldt 20, Cain 19, Miller 18, Hanauer 18, Oswald 
16. Class C: Schaerf 12. Sapp 9, Ruff 6. In a practice 
event at 25 targets, Lindemuth broke 24, Ike 23, Carr 19. 
Then followed six sweeps. This was the first time that 
Oldt ever broke 25 straight, and he kept on until he had 
a run of 55 straight. Of those who shot in all the 
sweeps, Lindemuth was high man with 89, losing but 1 
target out of the 90, and finishing the "day with 113 
breaks out of 115. Mack and Carr were second with 
82 each. Ike a close third with 81. Ike broke 104 out of 
115 shot at during the afternoon. Carr 125 out of 140; 
Mack 127 out of 144; Cain 124 out of 144, and Oldt 116 
out of 135. These scores will give Stan Rhoads and 
Arthur Gambell a bad half hour when they think what 
they will be up against on April 18 at Cincinnati. Earl 
Leasure, of Osborn, only thirteen years oid, surprised 
shooters and spectators by his excellent work at this 
shoot. In a 25-target event he missed the first and 
then broke straight, and shooting in competition with 
the veterans he broke 22 out of 25. A few days before, he 
broke 42 out of 44. He is in Class A now, and with a 
little more practice in company will be a hard propo- 
sition for the best of them to come up against. 
A few members of the Glen Airy Gun Club, Cincin- 
nati, attended the shoot on March 31. La Boiteux headed 
broke 35 out of 75, 
Yeatman 18 and 
the list with 72 out of 100. Rack 
McGuire 31 and Gehring 25 out of 50. 
Abrecht 9 out of 25. 
The Springfield Gun Club has done little through the 
winter, tive or six of the members only showing up for 
weekly practice. The club officers are at work on the 
preparations for the tournament on May 8 and 4. As 
soon as the weather becomes settled the regular weekly 
shoots will begin. 
McKeesport News Cup. 
McKeesport, Pa.—The first contest for the McKeesport 
Daily News cup was pulled off on the grounds of the 
Enterprise Gun Club on March 31. The weather was 
very unfavorable for shooting. But notwithstanding this 
some very good scores were made. Mr. Wm. Everett, 
of Duquesne, won the first contest on a score of 46 out 
of a possible 50, with Knight and W. Hale a close second 
with 45. The next contest is to be held at Duquesne on 
April 7, 
Mr. J. A. R. Elliott and H. H. Stevens were present 
and shot the entire programme. In the practice event 
Mr. Elliott was high with 93, and in the cup contest Mr. 
Stevens was high with 48.

The second contest for the McKeesport Daily News 
trophy was pulled off at the grounds of the Duquesne 
Gun Club on April 7, and was a success in every par- 
ticular. Twenty-two shooters took part, and there was

Mr. R. G. Knight, of the Enterprise Gun Club, won on 
46, with Calhoun and Davis right after him with 45. 
Knight names Monongahela as ‘the next place for the 
contest, and it will be shot on April 14.
