. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. 186 ttlj* $vz£b&; <mb |Fpjprr»mOtt« [September 17,189S. warm, with scarcely, if any wind duriog the shooting. Among ibe high gans, H. C. Golcher, W. J. Golcher and M. O. Feudner commenced ihe shoot on even scores, with Haiuht, the popular representative of the Do Pont Powder Company, io the lead with a narrow margin of one bird. Frank Maskey, after killing eleven birds on a back score, was io positioo for place, being but two birds behind the high man. The relative positions among the leaders changed after Haight had lost his fourth and tenth birds, thus giving \V. .1 Golcher, who had a straight string up to the twelfth rouod, a lead of one bird, which temporary advantage faded away after the loss of three out of his next eight birds. Air. Golcher then withdrew, having no chance for the medal. Otto Feudoer also withdrew after losing three out of twelve birds. H. C. Golcher, shooting in excellent form, finished two birds behind the high score for the season, Masker also had the same credit of kills on his score. Haight after losing his tenth bird killed the remaining fifteen in telling style and finished with a score of twenty-three. Clarence Nauman and F. J. Scbultz, with twenty-four each out of a possible twenty-five, were the high score men for the day. Nauman won the first class medal with credits to spare. The race for the medal in the second class, be- tween Green, Ungerand Neustadter was close. The former shooters had a lead of two birds over Neustadter and were tied on scores, linger scored nineteen and won the medal over Green, who finished with a total of eighteen kills. The championship score, eighty-nine out of a possible ninetv-seven, is the clever record which won the principal medal for Clarence Haight. The next high men, H. C. Golcher and Frank Maskey, each had a total of eighty-seven to their credit, C. Nauman's medal was won on a total score of eighty-five and seventy-two dead birds placed the second class
