Shooting Box Improvements.

The Shooting Club has ordered a Mangar trap from the Chamberlain Cartridge Company of Cleveland. The new trap will permit six men instead of four to shoot in a squad and will throw nearly fifty per cent more birds in an afternoon than the present arrangement of five expert traps.

A house seven feet square and six feet high is being built on Soldiers Field to contain the trap, and a curved platform seventy-five feet long and thirty inches above the ground is being constructed for the men to shoot from.
