 Wolstencroft had stated that Capt. A. Worrell, who is 75 years

MONTREAL, March 8.— The Dominion Gun Club of this citv, 

 which was largely composed of seceders f torn the Montreal club, 

 have recently returned in a body like prodigals to their parent 

 iduh, and a team of five were selected from their number to de- 

 fend the Montreal challenge cup against a team from St. Johns, 

 Quebec. The match was shot on the Montreal grounds to-day. 

 and the cup goes to the lit tie "city beside the Richelieu." A mix- 

 ture of rail fence, bare ground with snow and ice patches makes 

 a bad background for fast flying black targets, which partially 

 accounts for the poor scores. There will be some tall fun before 

 the cup is brought back to Montreal, for the St. Johns gentlemen 

 are game all through, and will make a big fight t o hold the trophy. 

 Below are the scores. N. P. Leach, referee; Henry Atwater, 

 official scorer. Wind W.S.S.W., temperature freezing, with pros- 

 pects of higher temperature some time in the future. Fifteen

NEWARK, March 13.— The shoot of the Newark Gun Club at 

 Erb's to-day drew out plenty of clever trap shots, and among the

 in the city giving exhibitions with the variety troupe which they 

 have organized. The Bennetts were invited to shoot in the club 

 match, but failed to distinguish themselves. The birds were so 

 good that they bothered all of the shooters, and no clean scores 

 were made. The result was as follows at 10 birds each: Class 8,

OGDEN AND THE EAST AND WEST.-Ogden, Utah, March 

 6.— The U. S. team of expert trap shots skipped Ogden, which 

 disappointed our shooters, as we have what we consider a good 

 ciub, and had an idea we could run them a close race with five 

 men. They stayed in Salt Lake two days, and on the morning of 

 their arrival wc telegraphed them that we would be down with 

 five men to compete for the $100 offered bv Mr. Dimlckto the 

 team of five men who would beat five of their men; so on the dav 

 of the shoot we went down with J. M. Browning. Ed Ensign. Matt 

 Browning, A. Brewer and J. Greenwell; but arrangements were 

 made, so they only had time to shoot their own score, and the 

 Ogden boys had to give up shooting with them. But we concluded 

 to shoot against their score, so at our regular medal shoot we made 

 the conditions and number of birds exactly the, same as theirs, 

 and we threw the birds as hard as they did. The score at Salt 

 Lake was Eastern team 173, Western 167. It will be seen that the 

 five men we selected made 177, and Our lowest five 169. Score, 30 

 singles and 5 pairs doubles:

VON LENGERKE DEFEATS BENNETT.— New York. March 

 15.— The well-known revolver and shotgun experts, the Bennett 

 Brothers, have an open challenge to all to shoot against them at 

 4ti glass balls on the stage while traveling with their theatrical 

 company. As I thought this « T as a splendid opportunity to test 

 my nerve, 1 accepted the challenge with the result as per inclosed 

 report. Allow me to add that I have found both the. Messrs. Ben- 

 nett gentlemen in every seuse of the word, and I take this oppor- 

 tunity to invite them to attend our next club shoot, April 8, 1890, 

 at Woodside, Newark. N. J,— Carl Von Lbngerke. "The chal- 

 lenge issued by Bennett is that he will appear and shoot at 10 sin- 

 gle glas3 balls and 15 pair of doubles, from a Bogardus trap, at 

 10yds. rise, using a shotgun. The challenge also states that $25 

 will be presented to the man who succeeds in besting him. On 

 the night previous Bennett defeated Oswald Yon Lengerke, Carl's 

 eldest brother, by a score of 39 to 35. Last night Carl defeated 

 Bennett by a score of 39 to 38. Bennett used a large gun while 

 young Yon Lengerke appeared with his favorite 5J4-lb. Francotte 

 gun. The men shot in rounds of five shots each. When Carl was 

 Introduced alongside of his tall, heavily built opponent he ap- 

 peared a mere boy in size, but he proved a perfect tower with his 

 gun. The 10 singles were shot off first without a mis c , and then 

 came the trying test, having two glass balls sailed in the air, 

 breaking each before they landed. Bennett led off and broke 10 

 straight. Carl made his first and only miss on the third pair. 

 Bennett, missed on his eighth pair, making the score a tie. When 

 the young Newarker appeared for his second round a perfect 

 storm of applause greeted him. Without showing any nervous- 

 ness he broke the lOTleanly and well. Bennett again missed on 

 his fourteenth round, and as Carl continued his great work of 

 smashing pair after pair, storms of applause greeted him. When 

 the referee finally announced the result the young man received 

 a genuine ovation, which he bashfully acknowledged and backed 

 himself off into the wings. Carl Von Lengerke belongs to the 

 Eaet Side, Mutual and Woodside Gun Clubs in this city, and is a 

 valuable member in each. In the last club shoot of the latter 

 club he broke 90 out of 100 clay birds in one day. He is probably 

 the most promising trap shooter in this section of the country. 

 Following is the tabulated score: 



C Von Lenge rke.linilllll 11 11 10 11 11 11 11 11 11 11 11 11 11 11 11—39

NORTH END GUN CLUB.-Frankford, Phila., March 17.- 

 The North End Gun Club went over to the Frankford Club 

 grounds on Saturday, and shot, a match with that young and 

 enterprising club. They have some fair shots in their mem- 

 bership, and a little more practice will no doubt enable the 

 majority of them to make a good showing. Not wishing to make 

 a great show of superiority, it was tacitly agreed by a number of 

 the North End team to just keep out of their opponents' way 

 during this shoot. How they succeeded in carrying out this pro- 

 gramme the following scores will show; 25 single Keystones, five 

 traps:

Mr. W. Morris Pack is making arrangements to give the trap- 

 shooters a warm receptiou wnen they arrive here on the 25th. 

 If Dimick would give us* our member Wolstencroft we could 

 makeup a team of five from the club, challenge the Western 

 team, and have a fighting show of winning. But it is not ex- 

 pected that Dimick will comply with this, as it would be too 

 risky a chance of spoiling his record. As it is, Mr. Pack has 

 concluded to challenge the tourists to shoot two matches, one of 

 five men teams, at 31 1 singles and 5 pairs of Keystones, and one 

 ten men team, to shoot at in live birds each; both matches will be 

 shot at Gloucester, N. J. The teams will be composed as follows, 

 unless otherwise changed: Five men team— Wm. Morris, A. 

 James, H. E. Buck waiter, W. Armstrong, E. D, Miller; all from 

 the North End Club. The ten men team for the live bird race 

 will be Wm. Morris. W. Armstrong, E. D. Miller, A. James, H. E. 

 Buckwalter, Wm. Henry, A. Lawrecce and J. Wolstencroft from 

 the North End, and J. F. Kleintz and L. Walton from Phila- 

 delphia.— John C. Shallchoss.

THE KEYSTONE CO.- We learn that a change has been made 

 in the personuel of the Keystone Target Co., of Corry. Pa. Mr. 

 C. H. Wetmore, one of the original owners of the enterprise, has 

 sold his stock in the company and will hereafter devote his time 

 to other interests. Mr. Wetmore has been a prominent figure, at 

 the preceding Keystone tournaments and has won a well-deserved 

 popularity among trap shooters by his genial, whole-souled way 

 of entertaining visitors on such occasions. It is to be hoped that his 

 retirement from the company does not mem a complete with- 

 drawal from trap-shooting circles. Capt. H. A. Penrose, well- 

 known as '-Pen" of the doleful voice, will hereafter, as before, be 

 the pushing man of the company, and will, without doubt, be 

 found at future tournaments in the interest of his bird and trap. 

 The company is building a new and more spacious factory, and 

 expect to bring out a new trap as well as other improvements this 

 year.

SIGNAL GUNS ON COASTING VESSELS. - In the Forest 

 and Stream of Feb. 20 a correspondent calls attention to the im- 

 portance of carrying signal guns on all coasting vessels. A recent 

 amendment of the inspection rules for passenger steamers reads 

 as follows: "Section 24 (new). All steam ^vessels certified as 

 ocean, lake, bay or sound, at their annual inspection, after the 

 adoption of this rule (except vessels of one hundred tons and 

 under, inspected under the provisions of Section 4426, Revised 

 Statutes, and freight aud towing steamers inspected under the 

 provisions of Section 4427, Revised Statutes), shall be provided 

 with a line-carrying projectile and the means of propelling it, 

 such as may have received the formal approval of the Board of 

 Supervising Inspectors." A gun for this purpose, with all the 

 apparatus for throwing a line and shell, and which may also be 

 used for ordinary signaling, has lately been put upon the market.
