SOME GOOD SCORES
DESPITE The RAIN
CONTESTANTS IN THE GATE CITY
GUN CLUBS TOURNAMENT
PROVE TO BE REAL SPORTS BY
STAYING THROUGH RAIN AND
WIND.

In spite OF rain and wind a large
percentage of the contestants in the
annual Gate City Gun club tourna-
ment, that closed late yesterday after
noon, proved themselves to be genuine
sports by staying with the tournament
to the end. Also in spite of the adverse
conditions some very good scores were
made although there is no doubt but
that even the best scores would have
been bettered and the general average
would have been much higher had the
conditions been right.
B. B. Ward of South Dakota was
high man in the amateur class, with
total of 421 birds out of possible $50
for the two days shoot. Ole Bottger
was second with 412 out of 46O and
Dr. F.. II. Bailey, president of the Gate
CITY Gun club was third.
In the professional class George
Kreiger of the winchester Repeating
Arms Co., was high man, getting 429
out of the possible $50 for, the two days
shoot. F. r. Gilman of the Western
Cartridge Co, and H. J. Taylor of the
Union Metallic Co., were tied for sec
Shh4N RAea~O IAA LiS pIOICcSlOAldl SSnSS Win
419 each out of possible 460.
Beside the regular prize money, w.
H. ,Diemert OF Moerhead furnished
twenty eight merchandise prizes. For
the two days shoot, 5000 was dis
tributed in the twenty eight events.
Fred Whitney of the winchester
Repeating Arms Co, was the cashier
of the meet and he proved to be an
excellent official. Louis Jensen, secre-
tary of the Gate City Gun club, and
therefore secretary and record keeper
for the meet, also deserves great credit
for the efficient way that he handled
| the affair. -.
Following is the full official score of
each shooter for the two days of the
| tournament. This is the first complete
correct list published: ..,

One of the most progressive decorat
ing firms in the city is ]. c. Durkee

has been exceedingly busy this spring,
as the firm secured the contracts for
the interior decorating of one of Far
go's leading hostelries and also on a
number of the most prominent resi-
dences of the city. L. c. Backer who
is in charge Of this work, needs no
space devoted to his praise, as he has
been connected with several of Fargo's
leading decorating establishments for
the past ten years and his work speaks
