Capt. James R. Maione’s fourteenth annual tournament, 
held at Betterton, Md., Aug. 6, 7 and 8, was a pronounced 
success. A feature of the shoot was the wonderful ex- 
, skill by Miss (Mrs. Frank 
Butler). Capt. Malone desires that we publicly ex- 
press his thanks to her for adding so much of interest 
hibition of Annie Oakley 
to the shoot in the way of skill, and so much of grace,

Analostan Gun Club. 
WasuHIncTon, D. C., Aug. 11.—Inclosed please find the 
scores made by the members of the Analostan Gun Club 
on Aug. 3 and 10. The club was unfortunate both days, 
in that the afternoons were dark and the rain interfered 
sadly with both shoots. The writer never -saw targets 
much fader and as most of the regulars shot from the 
back mark it was very difficult to make high scores. The 
shooting on the 10th inst. was almost all done from 18 
to 2lyds. 
Following are the scores made Aug. 3. The club had as 
visitors 'Mr. T. Haze Keller, the affable representative 
of the Peters Cartridge Co., and the whole-souled and 
well-known Lester German, who is representing the 
Dupont Company in an able and efficient manner.

Garfield Gun Club.

most excellent day for trapshooting, and while only 
eleven shooters showed up, they were well rewarded, as 
the scores will show. We. would like to see more of 
our members attend the shoots, especially now that we 
have:\so many valuable trophies to offer them. 
In the regular trophy: event Mr. McDonald won A 
class with 28 out of 25; Mr. Herr, B class, with 17 out 
of 25, and Mr. Goetter and Mr. Morris tied in C class

New Haven Gun Club. 
New Haven, Conn.—The New Haven Gun Club will 
hold a second grand merchandise shoot on Labor Day, 
Sept. 2. This shoot will be similar to our Decoration 
Day tournament, at which a large number. of merchan- 
dise prizes were distributed, and I think will be favor- 
ably remembered by all shooters who attended. 
We expect to make our Labor Day shoot just as 
large and successful an affair as its predecessor, and we 
assure the shooter of a fine time, as well as a large list 
of prizes, 
Lunch and shells can be obtained on the grounds, 
There will be an efficient handicapping committee, so 
that every one will have an equal chance at the prizes. 
There will be several high average prizes offered for 
those shooting the entire programme. 
We wish that all shooters would wait until they have 
looked over the list of prizes and programme of the New 
Haven Gun Club before deciding where to go.on Labor 
Day. 
A cordial invitation is extended to all 
attend and help carry away the prizes.

Malone’s Annual. 
BETTERTON, Md.—The weather was extremely hot,, yet 
the fourteenth annual shoot, held by Capt. James R. 
Malone, was a distinet success. The dates were Aug. 
5-9, 
The badger fight was a thriller and was carried on 
humanely and perfectly in every detail, owing to the 
excellent conduct of the referee, Mr. F. Billmeyer. The 
time-keeper was his brother, Mr. H. Billmeyer, of Cum- 
berland, Md., while Mr. Ed. Bower was stakeholder. 
It excited much merriment, as neither contestant suffered 
any injury. 
A large number of shooters and their families arrived 
on Sunday, Aug. 4, to enjoy the advantages of the sea 
shore, 
A feature which excited both wonder and delight was 
the exhibition of phenomenal skill displayed by Miss 
Annie Oakley (Mrs. Frank Butler), with rifle, shotgun 
and pistol. 
The practice events on Monday tetaled 100 targets. 
Messrs. Lester S. German and J. Morwell Hawkins were 
high with 87. Mr. Joe Hunter was second with 82. Mr, 
Walker was third with 77. 
August 6, First Day. 
The programme to-day consisted of five 20-target évents; 
$1.30 and $1.40 entrance. 
Miss Oakley delighted the large gathering by an ex- 
hibition of rare skill. She hit the ace on eight cards 
with a .22cal. rifle, shot small objects thrown in the 
air, such as wooden balls, coins, etc., and broke 24 out 
of 25, thrown targets, breaking five thrown simultane- 
ously. 
Mr. J. Mowell Hawkins, after the programme was com- 
pleted, left for Wilmington, N. C., to attend a-tourna- 
ment held there. The scores follow:
