Wednesday was hot as Tuesday and there was really nothing in the 

 way of a breeze to cool the air. During the morning the glare was 

 very trying on the eyes and the records made by the shooters are more 

 than creditable. The table of scores given below shows that 87 shoot- 

 ers were on the grounds, at least that is the number that took part in 

 the open events. The scores made on this, the 



There was some comfort in riding out to the grounds of the Sara- 

 toga Gun Club on the morning of Friday, the 

 Fourth Day 



of the New York State shoot. The recent rains had laid the dust, 

 previously many inches deep; the leaves of the shade trees tha line 

 each side of the streets of Saratoga had been washed and looked fresh 

 and nice in the morning sun; the whole country seemed refreshed 

 and grateful for the much-needed moisture. 



Noel Money was one of the most prominent arrivals on the ground 

 this day. Noel has to stick to business pretty close just now. Capt. 

 Money "is away in England on business, and is incidentally trying con- 

 clusions with European wingshots at Hurhngham and the Gun Club, 

 Netting Hill. Tha affairs of the American E. C. Powder Company, 

 therefore, keep Noel Money's nose pretty close to the grindstone just 

 now. He was obliged to come to Saratoga, however, to witness and 

 take pwt in the contest for the beautiful cup, a silver jug, by the way, 

 presented by the E. C. Smokeless Powder Company for eimpefition 

 at this tournament. This contest was the most interesting of the 

 whole shoot, and was productive of the best shooting of the week, 

 not excepting Sim Glover's run of 122 straight on Tuesday morning. 



To begin with, Noel Money stipulated that the contest should be at 

 100 targets, unknown angles, targets to be charged for at 3 cents each 

 He also made it a point to have the bluerock traps screwed up to their 

 highest tension and lowered as much as the rules of the American 

 Association permitted. The consequence was the targets flew some 

 80yds., skimming low over the long grass. The angles, too, were 

 acute, and tried the skill of the shooters to the utmost. The shooting 

 was in fact as hard as any we have ever seen. In the face of all this, 

 Whitney's great score of 97 out of his 100 must be classed as equal to 

 anything ever done by him or any other shooter. LeRoy with 92 was 

 second, breaking 46 out of each 50. McMurchy and Leveng? ton scored 

 91 each, while Noel Money and Tallett tied for fifth place with 90 

 breaks each. The scores given in detail below tell the story of the 

 shoot:

DEAN RICHMOND TROPHY. 



Saturday, the fifth and last day of the tournament, was live-bird day. 

 The Dean Richmond Trophy was the main event set for the day. This 

 trophy is to be competed for annually by three-men teams from any 

 cIud in the Association, the proviso being that the men composing a 

 team shall be bona fide members of the same club, and shall be residents 

 of the county in which the club has its headquarters. Owing to the 

 defection of the majority of the northern New York shooters, referred 

 to elsewhere, only seven teams were entered. These were: New 

 Utrecht Gun Club, of Brooklyn, N. Y. ; Cobweb Gun Club, of New 

 York city; Long island Gun Club, Brooklyn, N. Y. ; Saratoga Gun 

 Club; Emerald Gun Club, of New York city; Keystone Gun Club, of 

 Buffalo, N. Y. ; Onondaga Coimty Sportsmen's Club, of Syracuse, N. Y. 



Tlie shoot resulted in the victory of last year's winners, the New 

 Utrecht team, after a tie on 39 out of 45 with the Cobwebs, the Long 

 Island team being close up with 38 kills. The birds were an excellent, 

 lot of flyers; as good birds as one could wish to see. It took 4 hours 

 and 25 minutes to finish the shoot— sl iw time considering that only 

 313 were trapped. The scores in detail, showing the flight of the birds, 

 run as follows: 



Daan Richmond Trophy, three-men teams, 15 live birds per man, ties

> OTES OF THE SHOOT. 



Seth Clover was completely upset on Friday morning. He ran 25 

 straight at unknown angles in his second string for the E. C. Powder 

 cup, and couldn't account for it in any satisfactory manner. 



Milt Lindsley and his wife, Mrs. M. F. Lindsley ("Wanda"), were 

 present on Thursday and Friday. "Wanda" showed that she could 

 break targets as well as she drops pigeons; when she bi oke 10 straight 

 to Courtney's 8, the latter drew himself up and said he wouldn't beat 

 a lady anyhow! 



Nobody said anything about "dropping for place" at this tourna- 

 ment. Perhaps it was because there were no places to drop into. 



The "Levengston system" of dividing the purses is hardly the thing 

 for a big tournament; it doesn't afford enough incentive to make men 

 shoot up. The difference between the size of first and fifth moneys is 

 far to slight. 



Buffalo gets the shoot neit year. The "Bisons" promise us "a 

 corker, sure." 



"Dutchy" Smith was in danger of getting run in on Thursday night. 

 While returning from the concert in company with a few friends! 

 "Dutchy" saw a copand thought to toy withnim. Simulating a goodj 

 healthy jag, he embraced a tree. This is what he got: "Come out o' 

 that, you there. Ybuse fellows can't come on Broadway and play us 

 for suckers. IE yer don't go home at once, I'll run the wnole lot of yer 

 in I" They went. 



A report was started on Thursday that "Uncle Dan" had blown out 

 the gas when he went to bed the previous night ! The fact was, he 

 didn't want to get up when the boys came around in the morning,' so 

 he just let them bang away at the door without saying a word. When 

 they looked through the transom he lay still and smiled at them. 



Jack Parker promises thathis tournament in September shall please 

 all the boys— if they will go to Des-Chree-Shos-Ka and give him a 

 chance. 



The three "Texas Steers" made lots of friends at Saratoga. It will 

 be our loss if they don't come north again, 



After the Kenmore team had won the team race, Mowry offered to 

 bet Glover Sj>50 that he could pick another team of 10 men trom among 

 the shooters at the Kenmore that could beat the Saratoga team. The 

 bluff was a good one, because it went, Glover passing. 



Tuttle will have his little joke; but it is hardly fair to ask the leader 

 of the orchestra in a concert hall to bring you a sandwich, "Sare, I 

 refuse the sandwich to bring yout I am zee leader of Z6e orchestra 

 Sarel" 



Bartlett'8 exhibition of trick shooting took very well. Three cheers 

 and a tiger greeted his efforts each day, while the squad lines were de- 

 serted during his exhibitions. 



A noteworthy feature at this tournament was the abundance of 

 seats for spectators and shooters. Another feature, not so pleasant, 

 was the frequency with which one bumped one's head while passing 

 in and out of the shooting lines and cashier's office. 



George Mosher has got back into his old form and can knock out 20 

 straight with any of them, but Harry Lemcke beat him out of a bottle 

 of Yichy by leading him in the E. C. Powder cup contest, George not 

 being at his best. 



The cheers were loud, hearty and well sustained which greeted (he 

 veterao, Dan Lefever, when he won his own diamond medal on Thurs- 

 day morning. 



Seth Clover gave practical lessons in the excellency of his trap and 

 his new electric pull attachment. 

 "Crutty" as Usual was here, there and everywhere.

New Jersey Trap-Shooters' League. 



Last Saturday, June 29, saw the fifth contest in the series 1895 of 

 the N. J. Trap-Shooters' League contests decided on the grounds of 

 the Endeavor Gun Club, of Jersey City, at Marion, N J. The weather 

 was very warm, and until the time for the State League team race 

 the light was good. During the main event lowering thunder clouds 

 made the light poor; as the birds were thrown low and at acute 

 angles it was hard shooting, the black fence which is part of the back- 

 ground adding to the difficulty of getting on the birds quickly. The 

 clubs represented in the League race were (besides the home club)- 

 Boiling Springs, of Rutherford, N. J.; Maplewood, of Maplewood- 

 Elizabeth, of Elizabeth; South Side, of Newark; Climax, of Piainfleld- 

 Union Hill, of Hoboken. The Riverside G. C, of Red Bank, and the 

 Union G. C, of Springfield, were not represented. The Climax team 

 came out ahead, scoring 106; South Side wks second with 103; Maple- 

 wood third with 08; Boiling Springs, Endeavor, Union Hill and Eliza- 

 beth finished in the order named. 



Several sweeps were shot during the day, shooting commencing 

 early in the morning. A perfect deluge of rain put a stop to the day's 

 sport about- 5:45. Among those who took part in the open events 

 were three prominent shooters from Texas: K. M. Moore, of Far ^ 

 mersville; W. R. Miller, of AusUn, and A. Holz.ipfel, of Cuero. Mr. 

 Moore fulfilled the duties of referee in the League contest, duties that 

 were rendered all the more arduous by the poor light, dark back- 

 ground and low flight of the targets. His work was very satisfactory 

 not one of his decisions being questioned. 



Scores were as follows: 



League contest, 5-men teams, 25 targets per man, unknown angles:

Onondaga Sportsmen's Club. 



Syracuse, N. Y„ June 20.— The contests for the medal in CIbbs A. of 

 the Onondaga Sportsmen's Club are growing very warm. Five wins 

 entitle the winner to absolute ownership of the medal, and several 

 members have won it four times. This afternoon it looked dollars to 

 doughnuts that "Uncle Dan" Lefever or George Holloway would win 

 it outright, as both have four wins to their credit, and Arno, 

 McMurchy and Courtney being absentees. George Mann, however, a 

 dark horse, saved the medal for another day by breaking 45 In the 

 extra events after the medal contest some capital shooting was made, 

 Lefever, Morris, Hunter and Mann shooting at 25 targets apiece, and 

 breaking 95 out of the 100. Scores in medal contest:
