Two Remarkabie Trap Shots.

J. W. and F. A. King, father and son, of’Rensselaer, Indiana, are both very clever with the scatter gun. The father, J. W. King, on September 25th, last, at Logansport, Indiana, made the excellent score of 95 out of a possible 100 in events, 7-8-9-10 and 11 at reverse pull. F. A. King, the child trap shot, on August 24th on the Iroquois Club grounds, at Rensselaer, Indiana, broke 19 out of a possible 25, at known angles. He was only eight years and six months old at that time, and the fiftti time he ever shot at a blue rock. They are also hard to beat with a 22 rifle, so everyone says that • has shot against them.—Sportsman’s Review and Bicycle News. Mr. King has been the leading shot of Jasper county for years, both on game and at the trap, and in 1894 wore the badge for the six counties of northwestern Indiana. The father 1 and son stand ready )to meet any otherfather and 9-year-old son in the state, either with rifle or shot gun.
