‘,KEEN' EYES FROM THE KAW Kansas Oity Wins Dupont Trophy by Margin of Only Four Points, | ELLIOTT'S MARKSMANSHIP 1S FLAWLESS Each of His Fifty Birds ¥Fall Within Bounds, While Omaha Ganners Are Less Fortunate—Cockrell ‘The first match of the second series of shooting contests between the Omaha Kansas City Gun clubs bas come to & c.ose, | ending yesterday afterfoon with a viciory for Kansas City by a total score #65. The present match was the most in teresting of any of the three shot and the score of both clubs were higher than ever before made in either series. The frst | day's shoo.ing practically setiled the match and the first palr declded the first day's re sult Saturday morning the story of the first | day was told and it was dlsclosed low, for | the first time In & ten-man team contesi | straight scores of fifty birds made. | The second day's shooing on Suturday was | vastly more Interesiing than that of the first and the men were apparcnily bettor matched. The most exciting shooting ul‘ any of the ihree matches was that between James Smead of the Omaha team ul Elllott of Kansas City The match opened nt 11 o'clock Saturday morning, with Dave Elliott th rap His first bird was a mottied pigeon which came from the third trap, going away on the right | quarter.

His first bird was & left-quarter outgoer and was killed with the second barrel. He | mirsed three birds, his forty-ninth dled | Doyond the bounds and, with a clean miss of his fiftieth bird, his score was entered forty-five. The birds did not Ny Herman and he missed his first, a blue one, | which started for Council Bluffs the | #hcrtest route on the right guatter from | the fourth trap. An exceedingly difcult fiyer from the third trap was missed at the twenty-third bird and three others | escaped both barrels. Here Omaha made ite gain of the dny, Herman scoring forty- four to Crabill's forty-five. Frank Parmelee was matched against Gottlleb of Kansas City, and the Omaha men hoped with (his combination to make up their lost ground. The birds came hard for both the men, but both were in good form and Parmelee did not miss a bird, but unfortunately falled to get lead enough into two of them to hold them inside of the bounds and his score read forty-eight at the close. Gottlieb missed two birds and three seiled over the fence, o the close of this match left Omaha but one bird to the bad. who but both killed His best shots mead, Frani | 50 well for Cook Bray Lol Three. ‘When Dan Bray and J. A. R. Elliott came to the scratch for their respective teams, the interest was intense. Bray opened the match by killing his first pigeon, an incom- fng bird, on the right quarter and until the seventh shot killed every bird within the bounds. The hope of Omaha fell when the seventh bird flew over the north fence before it dropped. The twenty-first bird d1d the same and the thirty-sixth hunted the same rosting place. With forty-seven birds to his credit, but with fifty birds Killed, Bray was out. The shooting of Elliott was without er- ror. From the first bird, which arose trom the third trap slowly and flew to the right, to the last one that was killed as It left the spring, mot a shot was missed With but one exception every bird was dead before the second shot was fired, but for safety he used the second barrel sev- eral times. His score of fifty settled the first maich of the second serles with the following score for the second day: Score of the Day. D. Hillott James Smoad Frank Crabill... 3 Cook Herman...( Gottlteb ..

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 1.—On the navy retrieved of lagt year by thrashing the score of 11 to 7. It was test from end to end and by the hardest kind of playlag on the part of the Aunapolis -adcts. The West Point boys, in the face of defsat, never for a moment weakened in thelr play and won of kpectators for their gamencss. Nelther team playsd gilt-edged foot ball, but what they lacked in the finer points of the game they more han made up in zeal and earnesiness. Their tackling was marked with a recklcss that stirred the crowded stands into wild enthuslasm. The greatest crowd | hat bas assembled on Franklin fleld in a sumber of years was out and meny men distinguished in pubile life occupied scats in the stands.

Both teams were gullty of considerable fumbling and most of these misplays were made at critical points. As far as linebucking and plunging was con- cerned, neither team had advantage Uoth lines, except in a few Iratauces when the ground gained was rot great, held qu firmly, which compelled the captains to re nd running. At this style of pl lag West Point was a little more success One of the features wa nume pts made by Long of the navy team to kick goals from the fleld. Eight times the “‘mid 8" worked the ball to within the army’s forty-y: tried for n gos badly almed, his next four attempts w blocked and on the eighth try the ball eailed beautifully between the goal posts. His perseverance won for him the applause of army and navy supperters alike. In the pupting line the navy had much the better of It. During the first half Belknap had dificulty in placing his kicks, which wers also rather short, but in the second perlod of play his punting was aimost perfect. Farosworth's eantiLg was fairly good, but he was Injured and had to leave the game. Phipps then did the kicking for West Point There was a vast difference in the In- terference of the two elevens. Whenever 4 pavy cadet had the ball he was seldom protected, while the army’'s runner was, as a rule, well covered. The first score was a field goal by Clark for West Point. The uavy team had made four attempts at a fleid goal up to this time and on the last try the army sccured the ball on the kick belng blocked. The West Pointers slowly worked the leather to the navy's twenty-five-yard line and then Clark dropped back and booted the spheroid be- tween the goal posts. There was no more scoring in the first half. Long Kicks Field Goal. In tho second halt Annapolls got pos- session of the ball on the army's ten-yard line on a fumble after an exchange of kicks Long, for the navy, dropped back five yards for his seventh try at fleld goal, but the ball was blocked and one of his own men secured 1. Long immedlately tried it again on the fifteen-yard line and this time he was successful, tieing the score. A few minutes later the “middics" forged to the front, ‘They secured the ball on the infleld om an exchange of kicks and Belknap punted to the army's ten-yard line, where ono of the soldler holtbacks fumbled the leather and & sailor dropped on it. The “middics” tried the right of the army’s line, but failed to gain. On the mext lineup, however, Land was given the ball and went through the West Point live ltke a flash for the only touchdown scored in the me. Fowler kicked the goal Shortly before time was called the navy got the ball on a kick on its own five-yard line. Belknap attempted to kick it out of danger, but Finn blocked the effort and the ball rolled over the goal line. It was a desperate moment and both teams tore after the bounding leather, but Long fell on it for a safety and prevented the possi- bility of West Point tielng the score.

SECURES A CORNER ON SALT Eastern Company Huys Up All the Producing Concerns on on Pacific Cons; SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1.~The Chron- fcle says: The price of salt to the trade will jump from 95 cents to $2 a bag today. The Federal Salt company has ac- quired control of the salt industry In Ala- meda county and of the entire output west of the Rocky mountains. Negotiations have been carried on quietly for several weeks. D. E. Skinner, president, and A. 8. White, a director of the Nationul Salt company, which eontrols the salt output east of the Mississippl river, have beep on the coast for some time looking over the field and recently began buying up the small con- cerns or coutracting for their output for five years, The larger concerns wero taken into the corporation and given stock in the Federal Salt company as payment. The individuals were given paying positions. Headquarters of the company will be lo- cated in this city and it will today quote new prices to the trade. Everything will be consolidated and operated by the Federal Salt company. As that company is subsidiary to the National Salt company, the salt output of the United States will be controlled practically by one management It is understood that there will be no change In the operation of the refineries.
