The added money and trophies amount ed to $2,500, a sum exceeding even the Grand American which is $1,500, but which guarantees some $700 in addition, making the total about $2,300. The only other shoots which equal the Pinehurst event are the Westley-Hogan and the Denver Handicap. Mr. Jennings, the winner of the Handicap, carried away the magnificent Handicap trophy and the $500 prize ; Mr, Covert, the Prelim inary winner, a splendid trophy and $200 in added money, not to mention the sweepstake winnings of both. There was also a trophy for Mr. Putnam, the runner-up in the Handicap. A noticeable feature of the shoot was the large number of ladies in attendance and the fact that many of the partici pants came in advance of the event, and a number will linger throughout the present week to enjoy the diversified recreations of the Village. For the en tertainment of the visitors numerous social affairs were planned, among them dances on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday evenings, with an afternoon bridge party on Friday. Hardly an eve rung was without its informal dinners, and many of the party enjoyed golf, tennis, riding or fox-hunting before or after shooting. "You certainly have the classiest shoot of all the year," said Charles H. Newcomb as he was leaving for his train, " and it's bound to increase in popular ity because of your varied hotel accom modations, which appeal to all sizes of pocket-books, the attractions of the place in variety of recreation, the charm of your climate at this season of the year, and the magnificent generosity and per sonal interest of Mr. Leonard Tufts, Pinehurst's owner and your Country Club President. The boys will talk it from now until next winter, and the seventh annual is sure to show the same gain in numbers, representation and class that the event has for six years past. Here's to nineteen-fourteen ! " fAnd Mr. Newcomb was one of a merry group who hurried away, happy in memory and anticipation. Luther J. Squier added new laurels to his national reputation as a manager, and Charles H. North looked after the trap equipment with the skill of an ex pert.
