[Dec. 20, 1888« 



ST. LOUIS, Mo., Dec. 15.— The St. Louis Pistol Club has begun 

 its new tournament. Last Wednesday evening's shoot was the 

 starter, and a good crowd cf the members were presen t to ™gulge 

 in the sport. Good average scores were ihe rule, even jMfegO 

 remarkable ones were made. One thing is very noticeable in t lie 

 club's work, and that is, that the general average taken as a duo 

 i^ continually showing avervmarked improvement, and all those 

 who "have been given a handicap have expressed themselves satis- 

 fied and ar going to make a great effort to down the H#A 

 men for the prize if they don't for the medal, which is to be won 

 mVtlie general straight average. Only flv e of the members shoot 

 f^mtflscratclt o/inore plainly speaking, ^ not get any points 

 riven to them. The balance all received from 1 to 18 added to each 

 fcorc Mr. Billmever scored 84 on the initial shoot and witt hold

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 10.— The target grounds at Shell Mound 

 Park were well patronized to-day. The rain which prevailed 

 during the afternoon prevented many of the ambitious marks- 

 men from making big scores. The San Francisco Schuetzeu 

 "Verein were on hand, and their friendly rivalry for the valuable 

 medals which they compete for shows no sign of abating. The 

 principal event in their club to-day was the linal contest for the 

 third class medal. To become permanent owner of the medal it 

 is necessary to win it three times against the whole class, and as 

 the classes are usually numerous and consist of good marksmen 

 it is often years before any one is able to obtain permanent pos- 

 session. The third class medal was won to-day for the third and 

 last time by C. Nobman, by the good score of 370 rings. In all 

 classes there were twenty-six competitors, and the medals won 



The Swiss Rifle Club, of Oakland, held their monthly medal 



c'Baguth20. R. J.Loughrey and H. L. Pendleton, the crack 

 shots of Company F, First Regiment, shot 100 shots each with the

Several private pool matches took place during the day among 

 the marksmen, but they finally dwindled down to A. H, Brod and 

 A. Johnson, with scores of 44 and 43 respectively. 



CHICAGO, Dec. 4.— A revolver club has recently been started 

 with headquarters at No. 128 South Clark street. The following 

 are the scores made to-night in a match between H. Fuerman

 SAN FRANCISCO, Dee. 2.— Capt. L. Siebe, the proprietor of 

 Shell Mound Shooting Range, was somew r hat surprised this after- 

 noon when told by Anthony Johnson and H. R. Brown that they 

 were goirg to try and beat the record of 471 out of a posssible 500 

 points on a 25-ring target that was made by J. A. Robinson, with 

 a rest, two years ago, on the same range. The Captain has had an 

 offer standing ever since of $15 to the marksman who could equal 

 it. A large • crowd had heard of what they called "an absurd 

 thing," audit was found necessary to employ a policeman to keep 

 the crowd back. Johnson shot first, and as the wheel slowly pointed 

 to the 24-slot the crowd sent up a whoop and a yell. Brown did 

 not start off as well, but nevertheless made 21 rings. Both gentle- 

 men took a long time to shoot each shot, but this did not seem to 

 disturb the crowd, who awaited pa tiently the result. The shoot- 

 ing progressed slowly, but when it became evident that Mr. Brown 

 could win the money and honor by making 24 rings the enthusi- 

 asm knew no bounds. Mr. Johnson, by making a 19-shot early on 

 his second string, was thought to be out of the race. Brown came 

 up to the box, and, after a long and careful aim, fired. The crowd 

 forced itself into the adjacent boxes and around the shooting 

 stands to get a glimpse of the white disk when it would come up, 

 It came, and was placed by the marker boy on the 22-ring line. 

 All was silence— he had lost. But no; the dial was alread y past 

 the 22 and near the end of the 23-ringwhen it stopped, and showed 

 that Mr. Brown had tied the greatest record ever made. Follow- 

 ing is the score: 



Brown 22 25 24 23 22 25 24 24 25 22-236

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Dec. 15.— A very interesting rifle contest 

 took place at the Cedar Mill Pond range at Cambridge this after- 

 noon, between Company B, Fifth Regiment, and Company B, 

 First Regiment. The shooting was for the Cambridge Tribune 

 trophy, and was witnessed by a large number of invited guests, 

 among others members of the City Council. The trophy was 

 won by Company B, the following being the score, 7 shots per 

 man, at 200yds.:

WILMINGTON, Del., Dec. 10.— Owing to the threatening wea- 

 ther there was a smaller attendance than usual at the Heald- 

 moor Rifle Range, Wilmington, Del., this afternoon. The shoot- 

 ing lasted during the entire afternoon, and although a strong 

 wind was blowing, some good scores were made. The beginners' 

 class was on hand as usual and made some creditable scores. 

 Following are the scores at 200yds. off-hand, standard American

THE SCHULHOF ARMS CO.-The visit of Herr Schulhof to 

 this country in September last, of which notice was made in the 

 FoHiiST and Stream report of the Crcedmoor fall meeting, has 

 resulted in the formation of a company in this country to push 

 the Schulhof patents. By a declaration filed at Albany during the 

 past week Joseph K. McCammoii of Washington, Benjamin F. 

 Dos Passos, Charles C. Sheltoa, William G. Davis and Joseph J. 

 Schmidt of New York, are named as trustees of the Schulhof 



pany is to manufacture arms, guns, cannon, magazines, ammuni- 

 tion, etc., and especially the Schulhof gun. The incorporators of 

 the company were extremely reticent when asked yesterday about 

 their plans and intentions. John R. Dos Passos, the president of 

 the company,, has sailed for Europe on business of the company. 

 The Lend rifle, recently adopted by the French Government, is 

 claimed to be an infringement upon the Schulhof patents still ex- 

 tant in all the nations of Europe. 



A NEW RIFLE.— Invention has seemingly run riot in the mat- 

 ter of new rifles in Europe. The desire of each nat ion to go one 

 better in the way of small arms over its neighboring powers, has 

 stimulated ordnance makers, and the secrecy observed all around 

 has allowed the writers free swing for their imagination in paint- 



new French rifle. Great things are expected of it. The present 

 rifle has, it appears, been invented by an armorer at St. Etienne. 

 It is, according to a Paris correspondent, of simple construction. 

 The barrel is similar to that of the Lebel rifle. The cartridges 

 can be carried in the stock, and they faU into the breech as re- 

 quired. The rifle is loaded, fired and immediately reloaded by 

 the pressure of a button with the right hand while the. weapon is 

 at the shoulder. The cartridges in the stock are for close action, 

 and are only to be used when the soldier has emptied his pouch, 

 from which lie is able to load in the ordinary manner. For naval 

 warfare special arrangements are made by which each sailor fir- 

 ing from the 'tops' of a vessel will have over his head a zinc 

 ammunition box, from which the cartridges will fall into the 

 receptacle in the stock of his weapon, thus enabling him to con- 

 tinue firing without being obliged to remove the gun from the. 

 shoulder. In this manner from 300 to 500 shots may be discharged 

 in succession," 



BUFFALO, Dec. 10.— A shooting club was recently organized 

 with the following officers: President, Fred Beilman; Vice-Presi- 

 dent, Phillip Traum; Treasurer, Fred Schwartz; Secretory, Fank 

 Engel.

SHOOTING CLAY BIRDS IN A GALE. 



WALNUT HILL, Dec. 12.— As the close of the gold coin match 

 competitions draw near an increased interest is manifested 

 by those who stand any chance of figuring in the prize list at the 

 finish, and each one is putting forth his best efforts to better his 

 standing in the match, or at least maintain the one he already 

 has. To-day the Climax diamond badge and the gold coin 

 matches were shot and the contestants who entered them did 

 remarkably good wort, considering that the weather conditions 

 were the worst that have prevailed this year; the raw cold wind 

 blowing a gale nearly the entire day, causing the birds to sail 

 away at a terrific rate of speed, making it extremely difficult 

 for the most expert shots to know where to hold for them, and 

 the scores appended are really good ones under the circumstances. 

 Mr. Stanton's score 20 straight clay birds in the Climax badge 

 match is worthy of special mention. The summary follows:

CANADIAN TRAP NOTES. 



MONTREAL, Dec. 8 -The third open shoot for the Greener gun, 

 under the auspices of the Montreal Gun Club, took place to- 

 day, and the shooting in some cases was much above the average, 

 especially for the Montreal grounds, where the background is a 

 considerable hindrance to straight strings. The first two open 

 competitions had been won by C. Aubin, but he was not up to his 

 usual form, and, at all events, would hardly have been able to beat 

 Cameron's score of 19. The shooting up to the last was decidedly 

 exciting, but the winner was the only one who did not go to 

 pieces more or less. The conditions were 20 birds, 5 traps, 18yds.

Heppeler, Ont., Dec. 13.— Yesterday and to-day the Hespeler 

 Gun (Tub held t heir annual shoot. It was, as expected, a great 

 success, every event taking place. Crack shots were present, 

 from Toronto, Hamilton, Guelph, Port Colborne, Niagara, 

 Buffalo, La Salle, N. Y., Indianapolis, Ind., and other places. 

 The Messrs. Wavpers' efforts to entertain the visitors were fully
