THE TRAP.

MIDDLESEX VS. ESSEX.— The third or return match between 

 these crack clubs, each having won a match on their respective 

 club grounds, drew a large and varied crowd at Marion — the 

 grounds of the Jersey City Heights Club, on Thursday the 28th 

 inst. The day proved anything but a first-class one as to weather, 

 dark and chilly, with rain toward the close; but the enthusiasm 

 of the shooters, the cheerful fire in the club-house, the hot coffee, 

 and magnificent chowder furnished by that prince of chowder 

 concocters, Dave Jarvis (and w T ho of Jersey State fairs, tourna- 

 ments and other gatherings don't know of Dave's glorious 

 chowder V) put everybody in good humor. The birds were a good 

 lot and there was considerable betting as to the result of the 

 match. Both clubs had their best men on hand. Had the match 

 been confined to 20 men a side instead of 25 we think the Essex 

 would have stood a better show. And then there is always more 

 or less of the unexpected to happen. Cloffey, one of their most 

 reliable shots, good for 10 straight, or 9 out of 10, could grass but 

 6; for he was laboring under a violent sick headache and it was 

 only by a strong effort that he could hold his gun or see a bird 

 even. Rogers, another good man, went wrong for some reason; as 

 did John Day of the Middlesex, he ought with that gun of his to 

 have killed 8 or 9, but he tumbled but 6. There is great luck in 

 birds ; some shooters seem to have all hard birds, divers or twist- 

 ers; others doffers or hoverers over the traps. These things will 

 happen in all matches. More especially was thi s the case with Mr. 

 Wm. Clark, every bird but one of his were direct and fast risers 

 and he made some very brilliant kills. Mr. T. H. Force also did 

 some very fine stopping. Everything went off with the best of 

 feeling. These fraternal matches between clubs for glory and a 

 good time are a good thins and they should be encouraged. Pre- 

 vious to the match the following sweeps were engaged in : 



Match at 4 birds: Siegler 2, Lever 4, Forest 4, S. G. Smith 3, J. L. 



3, D. L. Darby 3, Quinlan 4. All ties divided.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 24.— The first trap meeting of the 

 Seattle Rod and Gun Club for the season, last week, was the 

 largest meeting held on the coast this year. It was a mixed shoot, 

 both live and clay -pigeons being used. There Were five clean 

 scores made, Messrs. Terry and Bowman failing to hit one clay 

 pigeon, and Messrs. Clark. McNaught and West not, scoring alive 

 bird. 



The initial meeting of the Pacific Gun Club at Agricultural 

 Park, Sacramento, was very successful, eighteen members shoot- 

 ing. The birds were good, but the smoke which hung over the 

 score rendered the second barrels almost useless, except when 

 wood powder was used. The Pacific Club is one of the most 

 active shooting clubs in the State. At twelve live birds, Hurhng- 

 ham style, handicap, for club medal, won by Mr. Wittenbroek:

 Kellogg Jr., vice-president, W. G. Orandall secretary, Charles D. 

 Laingo treasurer, H. H. Briggs captain, and W. J. Fox and J. K. 

 Orr directors. The name Blue Rock was adopted, and a constitu- 

 tion and a code of shooting rules submitted. The club will shoot 

 at Adams Point on the first Saturday of each month at artificial 

 targets. 



Three members of the Golden Gate Gun Club took a trip to 

 their shooting grounds sit McMahons to-day, to decide a fifty-bird 

 match. Clay-pigeons were used, 18yds. rise, from five screened
