 of last week. Seven men broke 20 and over out of the 30 singles

CHICAGO, April 19.— The following are the names of the 

 Chicago team which will probably be shot in the return match 

 at Kansas City in the big Chicago-Kansas City live bird match: 

 R. B. Organ, C. E. Feltnn. M. J. Eich. Abe, Henry and John Klein, 

 man, Abher Price, T. W. Wilmarth, Geo. Airey, D. J. M. Hutch- 

 inson. No delinite arrangements have been made for the match, 

 but the feeling is growing that it ought to be shot soon and not 

 deferred till fall. The talk about the birds being harder then and 

 so better for Chicago is all nonsen? e. Kansas City can shoot hard 

 birds as well as Chicago. Both teams are in the same class on 

 any sort of birds, although it is very probable that Chicago can 

 and will beat Kansas City in the next race. If Chicago would 

 awake from her back-number 10-bore nightmare and get a few 

 modern guns she might learn to sboot a little bit. There is a 

 tournament at Coutts, Ind., next week, lasting three days, at the 

 close of which the club members wiU take the visitors out on a 

 big snipe hunt on the fine snipe grounds near by.— E, Hough.

DALLAS, Tex., April 10.— As an evidence of the good accomp- 

 lished by tbe grand shooters we had here some time ago in the 

 shape of Western vs. Eastern team, I append the score of a. prac- 

 tice shoot of our newly organized Dallas ftun Club. We started 

 in with 73 members, some, however, bad never faced the trap be- 

 fore this shoot, therefore accounting in a measure for the poor 

 scores made. Our shoot was a perfect success, and we had some 

 of our most prominent citizens as participants, from bank presi- 

 dents to clerks. On April 17 we again try the festive bluerocks

 PENNSYLVANIA WS. NEW JERSEY.— Frank Kleinz, the 

 Pennsylvania champion, is endeavoring to get together a team to 

 shoot against a team from this State in an interstate champion- 

 ship contest at live pigeons. In case the match is shot, the condi- 

 tions will, bo, 10 men on a side, 10 live pigeons per man, Hurling- 

 ham rules, one match to be shot at Gloucester and the second at 

 Newark, the stake in these two matches to be $250 a team. If a 

 third match should be necessary, it will be shot on neutral 

 grounds, probably at Dunellen, the third match to be for $1,000 or 

 more a side. The Pennsylvania team would comprise W. H, 

 Wolstencroft, G. H. Buckwalter, R. Welch, R. E, Irwin, A. 

 James, Frank Kleinz and four well-known amateurs.
