ST. PAUL GUN CLUB. 



ST. PAUL, Minn., May 4.— Yesterday the weather report called 

 for "strong southerly winds and local storms." The storms 

 did not put in an appearance, but the wind was on deck. It was 

 impossible to tell where to hold, and as a consequence the mem- 

 bers of the St. Paul Gun Club and their visiting friends made 

 some "rocky" scores. First, some one would make a straight, and 

 perhaps the next event would not get a place at all. Every one 

 was out for fun, however, and evidently had it, for all seemed to 

 enjoy themselves. The entrances were light, so that no one lost 

 much. Mr. Hanson, a visiting sportsman from Litchfield. Minn., 

 and one of the best shots in the State, got his full share, as he 

 was very successful in shooting off the ties. The Challenge Badge 

 shoot caused considerable interest because the contestants a?e 

 the large gun dealers here, and are sharp rivals in busine.--. as 

 well as at the trap. Although the scores are low they are good 

 considering the furious gale that was blowing from the rear and 

 rolling over the club house would make the birds dodge in a most 

 bewildering way. 



The club badge was won by Pfister on the splendid score of 9 

 out of 10 single and 5 pairs Peorias, which is a hard score to beat 

 on a fine day, and simply wonderful on a day like yesterday.

TRAP AROUND CHICAGO. 



CHICAGO, HI., April 39.— Preparations for the great tourna- 

 meut of the Illinois Slate Sportsmen's Association arc going 

 on. and it certainly looks as if the fifteenth annual meet of the 

 association would be the best aud most notable of any yet. The 

 date is June 4 and the week following. Special interest'attaches 

 to this year's meet from the fad that the several recent attempts 

 at equalization of trap shooters— the Loyd, Keystone and Tucker 

 systems— will be given serious and thorough trial, and all that 

 can be done for the young shooter will be done then. The fact is 

 accepted that something should be done, for the young shooter 

 is holding back from the trap entirely too much, and thus is felt 

 to be a marked difficulty at a meet of this sort. Large numbers 

 of shooters are wanted. And since theso provisions, now and 

 careful, have been made in justice to all classes, it is to be hoped 

 tiiat all classes will come and shoot. The men of Chicago are 

 one in sending out this invitation, and no shooter who comes to 

 this the best meet of the greatest sporting city of the country, 

 will regret his trip, whether he loses or wins. 



The executive, committee of the association met last Wednesday 

 evening, and their programme is announced as follows: 



Shoot No. 1. The. diamond badge, emblematic of the individ- 

 ual State championship, 10 live birds from 5 ground traps, en- 

 trance $10, the winner of the badge this year to receive the re- 

 ceipts of next year's tournament. 



Shoot No. 3.— The L. C. Smith cup, representing the individual 

 State championship at inanimate targets, 20 targets per man 

 from 3 traps; the winner of the cup this year to receive 60 per 

 cent, and the club of which he is a member 40 per cent, of uext 

 year's receipts, entrance $5. 



Shoot No. 3.— The club team championship, for teams of four 

 men from any club which is a member of the Slate Association, 

 entrance, price of birds only. 



Shoot No. 4.— Fifteen inanimate targets, to be shot under the 

 Loyd system, six equal moneys, divided into three parts each, 50, 

 30 and 20 per cent., entrance 83. 



Shoot No. 5.— Ten live birds from ground traps, four moneys, 

 40, 30, 20 and 10 per cent., Keystone system on ties, entrance 

 $7.50. 



Shoot No. 6.— Eighteen inanimate targets, Tucker system, ties 

 decided on last 8 birds, five moneys, 30, 25, 20, 15 and 10 per cent., 

 entrance $4. 



Shoot No. 7.— Twenty live birds from 5 ground traps, four 

 moueys, 40, 30, 20 and 10 per cent, entrance .§20. 



Shoot No. 8.— Team shoot, any two shooters to constitute a team, 

 9 inanimate targets per man, four moneys, 40, 30, 20 and 10 per 

 cent., entrance $6 per team. 



Shoot No. 9.— Team shoot, any two shooters to constitute a 

 team, 10 live birds per man, four moneys, entrance. $15 per team. 



Shoot No. 10. — At inanimate targets, 9 singles and 3 pairs, four 

 moneys, entrance $3. 



Shoot No. 11.— Nine iuanimate targets, three moneys, 50, 30 aud 

 20 per cent., entrance S3. 



Shoot No. 12.- -Twenty-one inanimate targets, eight equal 

 moneys under the Loyd Bystem, three divisions in each, 50, 30 and 

 20 per cent., entrance $5. 



Shoot No. 13.— Twelve inanimate targets, four moneys under 

 the Keystone system, entrance $3. 



Two batteries of traps for artificial target shooting will be used, 

 and extra shoots at both live birds and artificials will be arranged 

 after the programme has been completed. Several guaranteed 

 purses will be offered and numerous valuable prizes will be shot 

 for m the State shoots. 



Chicago Shooting Club offers four gold medals for competition in 

 the club team championship. Other clubs or individuals wishing 

 to contribute should address W. L. Shepard, secretary, 164 La 

 Salle street, Chicago. Back dues should be sent to same address. 

 This is essential. 



On May 5 the Lake George Sportsmen's Association and the 

 Gun Club of Chicago will shoot their third match, this time at 

 the grounds of the Lake George Club. Each club has a victory to 

 its credit, and neither is going to win the next victory without a 

 struggle. The matches arc for ten men on a side, ten birds each. 



It is hoped and believed that last year's series of inter-club 

 matches will be resumed and extended this summer. The Mak- 

 saw-ba, Cumberland and Grand Calumet Heights Clubs were in 

 the fight last season, and it is thought that the Lake George boys 

 will join this year. Why could not others of the clubs join also? 

 The more the merrier. 



Social shoots at our different club grounds are now of almost 

 daily occurrence, and although the game season is about closed, 

 there will be little difference in the sale of the munitions of war. 



Mr. George Dieter, a not very big railroad conductor, who shot 

 a not very big gun, only a 16-gauge, did the gun club bovs up last 

 Saturday, winning both the live bird and the blackbird medals. 

 He must be the coming man. E. Hough. 



TORONTO. May 4.— McDowall & Co.'s grounds this afternoon 

 pi-esented a lively and exciting scene, the events being the shoot- 

 ing of the Stanley Club for the president's gold watch, which was 

 won by T. Sawden, Jr., after an exciting chase, also an open com- 

 petition for a beautiful gold ring, set with a carbuncle, donated 

 by Mr. G. F. Oakley, to be shot for under very puzzling circum- 

 stances, each shooter being compelled to lay his gun on a table, 

 pull the trap himself, and then shoot at the bird. It was won by 

 Mr, C. B. Harrison with a score of 18 out of 25. The weather was 

 all that could be desired, and a thoroughly good day's sport was 

 spent. The scores are. as follows. Shoot for watch at 35 birds: 

 T. Sawden, Jr., 22, W. McDowall 22, F. Emond 19, T. Sawden, Sr., 

 19, J. Rice 18, T. Bennett 17, T. S. Bayles 15, F. Moffatt 14, W. Fel- 

 stead 14. McDowall and Sawden both tied at 22 birds. They then 

 went back to the 3yds. mark, where Sawden finally won with 5 

 out of 6 to McDowall's 4 out of 6. 



birds between the first three at 18 resulted in the order name. 



First sweepstake, at 10 hirds: Fetetead 9, McDowall 7, Crow 6, 

 Andrews 6, Bennett 6, Draisey 5. 



Second sweepstake, at 10 birds: Bennett 9, Crow 8, Felstead 8, 

 Andrews 4.

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, May 2.-This citv now has three gun 

 clubs in active operation. The.Flint Hill Gun Club held a shoot 

 this afternoon. In the first shoot Charles Weaver was the win- 

 ner, breaking 34 out of 25 bluerocks, and in the second shoot 

 Richard Harry broke them all. The third shoot at 10 hirds was 

 won by Will Smith, who hit the entire number. 



MEADVILLE, Pa., May 2.— A.t t he Corry gun shoot to-day Fred 

 Babcock, of this city, aged 16 years, won the gold medal for the 

 third time, breaking 24 clays out of a possible 25. There were 25 

 contestants. Babcock is a son of Trainmaster John W. Babcock, 

 of the Nypano, this city, known as one of the finest shots in the 

 country, 



MINNEAPOLIS, May 3.— The weekly badge and sweepstake 

 shoot of the Minneapolis Gun Club was held to-day with a large at- 

 tendance. It seems as though the wind always blows a gale when 

 either the Minneapolis or St. Paul Gun Clubs have their shoots. 

 To-day, by the way of vartety, the wind blew just opposite its 

 usual direction and went from left to right with force onough to 

 drift a left-uuarterer back, and making it hard to find the second 

 bird in doubles. St. Paul was represented by Forbes, Fish. Burke, 

 Bennett, Holt, Cummings and Skinner. Shooting was fast and 

 furious nntil dark. Good scores were made by some and very 

 poor ones by others. One curious incident to-day was thai; the 

 winner of the "junior" badge got first money, while the tough old 

 seniors only got 14 and were content to divide fourth. The sparrow 

 match, Monaco boundary, that was to be shot between Bradley 

 and Skinner, is off, as Bradley refuses to come to time as per 

 his challenge, .although he has had two opportunities. Following 

 are the scores: 



First event, 5 screened traps, $1 entrance, match at 5 singles and
