The : contest was an interest- ing event, over 15 experts taking part. There were several valuable silver cups donated by the C. J. Ranier Co. as well as individual prizes offered by the club. The weather was not all that could be desired, there being occasional hard showers during vyhich the gunners sought the shelter of the club house. Little things like this did not dampen the ardor of the sportsmen, however, and some good scores were made. An interesting diversion was when the con- testants lined up and saluted with rapid fire the steamboat Columbia which passed with tne delegates on the way to the H. A. Dreer Co.'s nurseries at Riv- erton, N. J. There were not enough entries from the various cities to fill out teams so it was agreed that all should shoot as individuals. There were two events of 25 targets each so that all should have an equal chance. Handi- caps were given to place all on a level. In the first or high gun contest the win- ners were: G. O. Bell 24 W. B. Westcott 23 W. K. Harris 23 W. A. Hammond 22 H. Brown 21 Other scores were: George Anderson 21 E. W. .Stevenson 19 C. D. Ball 16 T. C. Stevenson 16 W. Wheeler 15 G. Burton 15 A. 12 E. Reid 11 F. Adelburger 9 R. McLennon 6. N'rs. Chas. McKellar, Chicago. The handicap event for the C. J. Ranier cup proved very exciting as three men were tied for first and seven for second place
