Bergen Beach Gun Club. 
Bercen Beacu, L. I., April 10—The shoot of the 
Bergen Beach Gun Club, held to-day, was well attended. 
The third contest of the 50-target, distance handicap 
series of five, had thirty-one amateurs and four pro- 
fessionals as contestants. The shoot was managed by 
the well-known amateur, Mr. L. H. Schortemeier, and 
Mr. F. Bergen was steward, Mr. De Long scorer, and 
Mr. H. W. Gray was referee. The weather was truly 
of April showers and squalls, with some sunshine be- 
times, and a high wind blowing. The next shoot will 
be held on May 8. Mr. Schortemeier scored 43 from 
the 20yd. mark, and was high. At the next shoot, he 
goes to the 2lyd. mark, an honor which he shares with 
no one. Messrs. J. H. Hendrickson and H. W. Bissing 
scored 42, the former from the 20yd. mark, the latter 
from l6yds., for which excellence he stands at 20yds. next 
time. The scores follow:

Magic City Gun Club. 
Monee, Ind., April 9.—The Magic City Gun Club held 
their weekly matinée shoot Thursday, April 5. Our club 
will shoot on Thursdays the rest of this season. 
_ The attendance was quite small, owing to the threaten- 
ing weather—none of the old guard ventured out. 
The scores made by the contestants were very irregu- 
lar, and not up to the standard, but considered quite 
good by those who tried to break ’em all. 
We expect the largest attendance in the history of our 
club on April 19. Experts who have announced their in-

Crosby-Topperwein-Hawkins. 
Wm. R. Croszy, of O’Fallon, Ill.; Adolph Topperwein, 
of San Antonio, Tex., and J. Mowell Hawkins, of Balti- 
more, Md., representatives of the Winchester Repeating 
Arms Co., are making a short tour of the East, and will 
shoot in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and 
New Jersey. The first shoot took place at Cannonsburg, 
Pa., and an extra large crowd of shooters and spectators 
were in attendance. Unfortunately Crosby’s trunk did 
not arrive from St. Louis, and he was unable to attend. 
Hawkins made the good score of 96 out of 100 in a strong 
wind. Ed. Hickey, the Pittsburg crack amateur, made 
the next best score, 85 out of 100. Topperwein gave his 
wonderful exhibition of fancy shooting with revolvers 
and repeating guns and rifles. The applause that greeted 
his every effort showed that the exhibition was much _ ap- 
preciated. The next shoot was held at the Herron Hill 
Gun Club, Pittsburg. The programme called for 105 tar- 
gets. ‘‘Bill’s’’ trunk arrived, and he got his gun in the 
right place after missing two in his first 4, and broke 

102, making 9 out of his last 100. Ed. Hickey broke 98 
out of 105 in great style. He was tied by Hawkins. 
“Top’s” inimitable exhibition was warmly and generously 
applauded. He was made to punch rings with his .32 
from quarters, pennies and other coins, until those in 
attendance were well supplied with rings and watch 
charms. 
At Cumberland, Crosby broke 142 out of 150 in the 
wind, which was a fine score. Hawkins broke 139. H. D. 
3illmeyer, of the local club, also shot in great form. 
There are many rifle shooters at this place, and they all 
marveled at the rapidity with which “Top” worked the 
lever action .32cal. rifle when hitting three oranges thrown 
in the air at one time by himself. 
At Washington, T. Bill broke 95 out of 100. Hawkins 
94, Wilhite and Hunter 85 each. 
‘At Charlottesville, Crosby broke 97 out of 100. Hawkins 
and Bruffey 93 in a high wind. 
At Lynchburg a strong wind made the targets very 
difficult at times. Crosby broke 137 out of 150, and was 
ticd by W. R. Winfree, of the local club, who again 
demonstrated what an amateur could do with Winchester 
shells. Keller broke 136, but Col. Terry carried off the 
honors by breaking 94 out of 100, with a run of over 50 
straight. The boys have been most warmly greeted and 
entertained at each club, and are loud in praise of the 
reception accorded them.
