SPORTING NOTES.

The Corvallis ROd AMI Gun CluD held
their second meeting at the club grounds
on Friday afternoon. The attend.nce was
good considering the bad weather. Scores
were not as good as usual owing to the grass
being wet and most of the boys had ''slip
of the foot" Each member shot at twenty
Peoria black birds with the following score:
T. job 10; c. A. Loud, 10; L. Dyer. 8; j.
Dyer, s; E. Bier, s; &. w. Smith, s; j..
Damn, 10; O. Michigan, s; ]. Horning, T..
Job. Dunn AMI Loud shot off ties on ten, re-
sulting in Loud winning by one bird. The
bows seem to take lively interest and all
enjoyed the sport. The club now has a
membership or twcnty and several more arc
talking of joining. 1t is progressing finely
aud in the future the game laws of Oregon
will be closely observed by the members,
as each one is under bond to do all in his
power to protect the game and fish during
the close season. The club has asked the
governor to appoint James Dunn as game
warden, whose daty it will be to arrest all
persons found molesting any game blr,i,
deer, on fish, out of season. Reports come
in onite often from Chitwood and Summit
that deer are killed most every day. 1t is
shame that game should be slaughtered
in breeding season, and a person doing so
deserves to be punished to the fullest ex-
tent of the law. Let the good work go Oil
with the help of the Corvallis rod and gun
club, aud in few years Benton county will
he q psradise for ..true sportsman.
AS Albany is ts have gala day on the
4th of July and the Salem and Corvallis
people are to join in and help Albany paint
the town." why would it not be good
i,tea for Albany to offer prize to be snot for
between the Salem, Albany and Corvallis
gun clubs, AMI have the contest take place
at som, hour during the day. Il might
help to swell the crnw,l and each club could
pick team to enter the contest. Let Us
hear from Albany and Salem.
