Bradford Gun Club. 
BrapForD, Pa., Sept. 7.—The Bradford Gun Club will 
hold their annual green corn and clam bake shoot on 
Sept. 24 and 25, and they will make this a good one. 
'| Those who have been fortunate enough to attend these 
| shoots in the past seasons know that they are the shoots 
to attend for a good time and a good supply of clams 
| and green corn. 
} 
} 
The programme will consist of 200 targets a day, and 
‘| the club will add $50. The purses will be divided Jack 
Rabbit system. 
This is a chance to shoot over the grounds where the 
|} next Pennsylvania State shoot will be held. 
Programmes ready for mailing. Address R. S. Pringle, 
Secretary. 
The following are the scores for to-day’s shoot:

WESTERN TRAP. 
| In Other Places. 
| Jasper, Mo., boys, of the shotgun-crank order, now 
|sport a gun club. A trap and targets have been pur- 
|chased and set up, and trials of their marksmanship will 
be the pastime df the enthusiasts. W. O. Jenkins and 
Wes. Spaid have the honors so far. Each has scored 22 
out of 25 trials, but they were at clays thrown by hand 
and not from the trap. The membership will probably 
be limited to twelve. 
Braemmmer was the best of the bunch in the last shoot 
for the summer at the Parker Gun Club, Milwaukee, 
Wis. He scored 83 out of 100; Kneoening was second 
|with 80, and Klopinski third with 75. Members now have 
purposes on the ducks that will.soon be in the marsh. 
Barberton, O., Gun Club report a shoot at 50 clay tar- 
|gets with a good attendance, but no records were made 
which were worth recording. 
The Lesueur Center, Minn., Gun Club members do not 
shoct as well away from home as on their own grounds. 
In their contest with the Mankato, Minn., Club recently 
the scores were: Mankato 203, Lesueur Center 149. This 
is too one-sided to get up interest, but then the Center 
boys will improve with more confidence. 
|. Wooster Stinson, of Decatur, Tenn., broke the record 
lof the club by breaking 25 straight and then 48 out of 50. 
This will no doubt stand as the record for this season. 
J. J. Booker won the Temple, Tex., Gun Club trophy 
recently with 24 out of 25. 
The Haskinson, N. D., Gun Club appears to be a 
large one, as there is a good turnout to the club shoots. 
There is some high tension among members of the 
Saginaw, Mich., Canoe and Gun Club. Mr. Lockwood 
[|has won the trophy twice, and if he goes it once more, 
it is his personal property. 
Members of the Duluth, Minn., Gun Club recently de- 
feated the Superior, Wis., Club rather easily in the club 
jcontest. Scores: TBS cad gea had 21, Abiel 19, Lock 21, 
Webb 20, Nelson 20, Cap 21. Superior—Paddock 14, Hope 
| 18, Renoof 18, ie 18, Williams 18, Fulton 22. 
1 A beautiful specimen of marksmanship was shown in 
; 
| 
] 
|the loving cup presented to the Ely, Nev., Gun Club, by 
A. C. Lundskog. The interest is so great in the sport of 
trapshooting that everything else seems to be put aside 
for the season. There are two other trophies that come 
‘jup for contest at each meeting of the club. 
‘| The Missouri Press Association has appointed a com- 
.|mittee to secure suitable ground and to arrange for the 
building of a club house where its members can hunt 
and fish to their heart’s content. 
Chas. Roberts, by doing some very excellent shooting, 
won the Class A badge in the weekly shoot of the 
Metropolitan Gun Club, St. Joseph, Mo. He not only 
made 25 straight, but he made 96 out of 100. Howland 
and Blount were close up with 92 each. Other scores 
at 100 targets: Sampson 91, Wildberger 88, Shone 85, 
‘}Kullman 82, Fenton 78, Yotes 77, Carolus 74, Arnhold 
139, Carmichael 70, Yotes 83. At 25 for badge: Roberts 
| %, Howland 24, Sampson 22, Wildberger 22, Kullman 19, 
‘|Fenton 20, Yotes 21, Carolus 22, Hensley 18, Blount 23, 
|Arnhold 21, Carmichael 18, Yotes 20, Barker 15. 
Shooting at Muncie, Ind., did not fail to attract the 
nembers of the Magic Club on Wednesday, although the 
big tournament was held Monday. Shooting at two 
strings of 25, Shumac scored 22, 20; Thompson 19, 20; 
Highland 15, 20; Williams, 20, 16; Williamson 19, 21; 
Spencer 23, 24; Watchell 17, 18; Irwin 24, 23. The visitor 



































































































Going Shooting? 
Half your success depends on your gun. You want a gun in which any natural 
wear can be immediately taken up by a compensating screw, wof returned to the 
factory for this purpose; the one with the fewest parts; the one made as you 
would make it if you were a gunsmith of 50 years’ experience. 
LEFEVER SHOT GUNS 
have no superior. Its compensating screw takes up all the wear. It has only 
three parts to its mechanism. Its exclusive cocking hook takes the strain off the 
hinge joint. Its dove-tailed top fastener and compensating bolt keeps the barrels 
continually wedged tight against the frame. 


Removal of lock plates does not interfere with the action. Indicator 
tells when gun is cocked. Barrels and stock imported. 
Every gun is taper bored, tested to shoot dead center with greatest 
penetration and eyen distribution of shot, before it passes inspection. 
The new Lefever catalogue is ready and will be sent to any address 
free of charge. Write for it before you forget to. Every lover of sport 
should have it.

A Record Breaking Perform- 
ance made by Fred Gilbert, 
and the 









PARKER GUN. 
97.9 Per cent. 
From June 25 to Aug. 9, Mr. 
Gilbert shot at 2400 targets and broke 
2351, or 97.9 per cent. Mr. Gilbert 
also made the following long runs 
without a miss: 


Iowa Falls, 177; Boston, Mass., 130; Worthington, Minn., 178; Audubon, Ia., 
158 and 96. An unfinished run at Audubon of 96 and the first 85 at Story City 
without a miss, making a run of 181. This unquestionably demonstrates the 
splendid shooting qualities of the OLD KELIABLE PARKER GUN. 
Shoot one and win. Send for catalogue.
