Plainfield Gun Club. 
PLAINFIELD, N. J., April 24.—Twenty-six shooters faced 
the traps and enjoyed the zephyr breezes of a northwest 
wind, blowing at the rate of 4744 miles per hour, as 
timed by Harry Dreier, the club’s windometer. 
Events 5-10 were merchandise. Emmons won first 
prize in each. He shot off a tie with Hone for event 5. 
Drs. Hunter and Luckey rendered valuable assistance 
to the referee and scorer, for which the club extends 
its thanks.

Palisade Gun Club. 
Edgewater, N. J.—On April 26 the tenth regular tour- 
nament of the above gun club was held, with a_ fair 
attendance of the regulars and the addition of Capt. 
Money, who was with us again; and by the scores you 
can see he is getting back into his old-time form. 
Geo, Piercy still has the habit of winning the high 
average and the $5 average prize, as well as some twenty 
odd dollars of the other fellows’ money. 
Speaking of the- winnings, there were others with him, 
as the cashier’s slips paid out ranged from $12 to $18; 
thus showing that our adding from $2 -to $4 to each 
event pays the regular and consistent shooter, as there 
was $20 added in all to the eight regular events and $65 
for amateur average. 
The sliding handicap again demonstrated that it is the 
thing, as there were only two straights made during the 
day, one from the. 16yd. mark and one from the 17. The 
day was light and warm, with puffy wind across the 
traps ducking the targets. 
The cashier’s office was in charge of H. S. Welles; 
the scorer was Mr. Chas. Stroub; the referee was Mr. 
J. H. Grayand; our secretary helped out generally. 
Our eleventh tournament will take place on May 24— 
180 targets,. with $23 added, and total entrance $12.60. 
On May 30 will hold holiday shoot, 160 targets, with 
$25 added.

_ Edgewater, N. J., April 28.—There was an exciting time 
in the finish of the 50-target race for the Sauer gun. 
McClane, Wynne and Hunter tied on 36 out of 50, after 
having shot out the whole bunch with the exception of 
Sim, who landed out 44 in a wind that came down over 
the Hudson at 80-mile an hour. 
By Sim not competing in the above, Capt. Eickhoff 
ordered the ties to be shot off at once in a 25-target 
event, and called the other men to the score. Out they 
came, white as ghosts, and still as mice, trembling with 
fear. The Captain, seeing this, put two more men in 
the squad, making five in all, to see if it would quiet 
them. Hunter fell down to 12, while Wynne, on his 
25th bird, had 18, and McClane had him tied on his 24; 
so to win Charlie had to break this target. There were 
about fifty persons there, all waiting for the last shot. 
McClave looked around, steadied himself, waited long 
enough to have his heart going right, when he cried 
“pull,” and smashed the target plumb on the middle. 
When he had finished he collapsed, and Dr. Richter, 
after much difficulty, got him around all o.k. McClave 
promised every one a grand dinner after this win. 
Next Saturday the Jacob Ruppert cup will be shot 
for, 50 targets, $1 entrance; every one invited to contest. 
Still Shaking the Pecan Tree. 
Victories with Winchester Factory Loaded Shells are as 
plentiful in Texas as pecans. To the many conquests of 
the past made with these shells can now be added the 
important ones made at the annual tournament of the 
Texas State Sportsmen’s Association, held at Austin, 
April 23-26, where Robert Connerly won the coveted 
Houston Chronicle Cup, emblematic of the expert cham- 
pionship of Texas, and also high amateur average; and 
C. G. Spencer and Harold Money won first and second 
professional averages, all using 
WINCHESTER 
Factory Loaded Shells 
Nor is this all to chronicle, for at the Great Bend (Kan.) 
shoot, April 18-20, Ed. O’Brien and E. W. Arnold won 
first and second amateur averages, the former making 
the high score of 562-580; and at the Ft. Wayne (Ind.) 
tournament, April 24-26, first and second amateur aver- 
ages were won by Dennis Upson and Frank G. Fuller, 
all using Winchester Factory Loaded Shells. Now, 
shooters, don’t you think it would be well to bear these 
victories in mind when selecting your shells for the 
coming Grand American Handicap? Winchester Factory 
Loaded Shells are 
The Grand American Handicap Winners.
