WOOD SIDE VS. EASTSIDE.— Newark, N. J„ .Tune 20. - Editor 

 Forest and Stream: On Thursday the l^rg-talked-of match be- 

 tween the Woodside and Eastside gun clubs was shot off on the 

 la.tter's grounds, which is a beaurifiil little snot o n tbe outskirts 

 of Newark. The Eastside Gun Club has a membership of not less 

 than 43 shooters. Imt it caused the captain much work to select a 

 team of 10. who were, legitimate members of the club, some of 

 t heir most important men having chosen the Fishing Ranks in 

 preference to holding tip the reputation of the. clnb. Until now 

 the Eastside Gun Club h«s never heep beaten, and yesterday's 

 shoot decided which of <h e town cbihs would hold the champi 

 ship. As it stands, the Woodside Gun Club hold a clean record, 

 never ha viner lost a ma tch against any club, and tbev have battled 

 with some of the best in eighteen different events. Let their 

 members give "thanks to the good management.'' The captain 

 ce-'ainlv deserves credit for bis good work. Never was a raon 

 jollv set of shooters seen than those who formed the teams of ves 

 terdav's shoot. Wondsid" and Fastside were all one. The dv 

 was all that could *e asked for; in fact there never "-as a. nicei 

 one for shooting. Tbe traps worked well, and everything went, off 

 as nicelv as could be. The home club had arranged things to tl 

 "Queen's taste" and received their visitors in the most cordial 

 manner. They tapped a keg of ''something" very unfamiliar to 

 the writer, and this kept t>>e bovs cool and happy for the rest of 

 the day. Immediately after the. match the Woodsiders went in a 

 hody to the Eastside's lipadqunrt.es. where a lunch was indulged 

 in prepared for them bv the "Captain's wife"-

SPARROWS FOR THE TR AP.- Mount Vernon, N. Y.— 

 Editor Forest and Stream: I cannot help admiring Mr. Mussey's 

 article, "Features of Trap-Shooting in the West." I think it is 

 beautifully written and appropriate, and hits the nail on the bead. 

 I indorse everv word. I think, as Mr. Mussey savs. that sparrows 

 will fill the bill exactly, if a live target is required. Perhaps a 

 word as to how thev used to be procured for the London clubs 

 would interest you. There are two ways, one bv daylight and tbe 

 other at night. In the day, to be as brief as possible, what is called! 

 a clap-net is used. A large net is spread on tbe ground where the 

 birds congregate, inside of which are tbe "brace birds," or live 

 birds pegged to tbe ground, and stuffed dummies, and plenty of 

 feed; outside 1he net are the "call birds" in little cages. The net 

 is so constructed, that when the flock drops down into it a pull of 

 a string incloses them all. Suffice it to say that immense catches 

 are made in this way. "Bat netting" is done after dark. The 

 roosts are carefully noted (principally thick bushes and the ivv on 

 houses), and after dark, when all is quiet, two men with two bat- 

 nets set off. These are only large nets, about 8ft. high and fift. 

 wide, fastened to two poles, the tops of which are bent over in the 

 form of an arch. Now. one goes ench side of a bush and holds up 

 the net over it. spread out as much as possible. The man on the 

 opposite side makes a great racket and all the. birds dart nut into 

 the other net, which the man immediately closes; and so on fronr 

 bush to bush till the basket is full. Hundreds are taken in this 

 way in the long autumn evenings, and it is great fun. I was only 

 an amateur but have been pretty successful, and it brings many- 

 delightful memories back to my miud. I, for one. hone to see 

 trap-shooting put through a. thorough refining process. I believe, 

 I am sorry to say, that when an amateur becomes a clever shot at 

 the traps and wins a little.it becomes his damnation, it i s no 

 good hoping for a brilliant future, but for each individual to hustle 

 and work to get it renovated.— Hybrid. 



GLOUCESTER. N. J.. June 17.— The live pigeon match between 

 H. French and J. Reis, was shot at Fra nk McQuade's to-da v. The 

 conditions were 25 live pigeons each, 25 yards rise, H and T traps, 

 use of one barrel. On the first five birds. Reis led by one bird: on 

 the second five, the totals were 7 to 5 in his favor: he continued to 

 shoot steadily, anit finally shot out bis opponent on tbe 22d bird, 

 the scores being 1fi to 10. French had most of the hard birds, 

 which he allowed too much headway: five birds that were hit hard 

 managed to get out of bounds, while three dropped dead just over 

 the houndary line. The match was for $50 a side, and as French 

 is not satisfied, it will nrobably be repeated. After the French- 

 Reis match, Miss Ray Hunsiiiger. ("Little Hawkeve,") op a wager 

 of $100, endeavored to kill 3 out of 5 sparrows, with a Wurfflein .38 

 rifle, using a shot cartridge, at 8 yards rise. This clever and pop- 

 ular little lady was doubtful about being able to accomplish this 

 feat, but was perfectly willine to try. She killed the first two 

 birds in excellent stvle, missing the third, and then won tbe 

 wager by killing the fourth. She was too anxious to kill the fifth 

 bird, and it escaped. 



WELLINGTON, Mass., June 21— A stiff breeze blew across the 

 traps frnm the southwest to-day, which gave additional soeed to 

 the flight of Warren's huh targets, and made it rather difficult to 

 make clean scores. In the third contest for merchandise prizes 

 of June the following scores were made: Bond, Bennett and San- 

 born 16 Chase and Warren 15, Bradstreet 14, Bradbury and White 

 12, George and Porter 9, Dill 8, Pip^r 7. The winners in the sweep- 

 stakes follow: Six bubs. Porter, Bradbury, Bradstreet. Warren, 

 Gale, Bennett, Bradbury, Warren and G'ire; Bennett. Hall, Gore 

 and Bennett; Roxton and Bradbury, Bradstreet, Warren and 

 Bradbury; three pa'*r bubs. Piper; six hubs, Brooks and Bennett, 

 Gale and Ohase, Piper, Chase Bradbury and Bradstreet; three 

 nair hubs, Bond. Brooks and Chase: six hubs. Warren, Sanborn. 

 Bradbury and Chase, Bond, Warren and dale; five pair hubs. 

 Bond. Chase, Sanborn and Bennett; six hubs. Gale and Sanborn; 

 Sanborn. Bradbury; three pair hubs, Bradstreet; six hubs. Brooks 

 and Bradbury. An important event was the challenge of Morse 

 hv Grant to shoot 25 hubs for a purse. Morse won by a score of 

 20 to 15. 



FALCON GUN CLUB. June 19.— The first monthly shoot in the 

 new year, of the Falcon Gun Olub, took place at Miller's Dexter 

 Park. L. I., this afternoon. Eight, members of the organization, 

 .which is entering on the twelfth y#ar of its existence, went to the 

 traps, each man firing at 10 birds, under Long Island rules, a 

 pigeon killed with the second barrel counting as 14 bird. Sweeps 

 at, live birds and bluerocks fallowed the regular event. .1. H. 

 Herrman won the club medal and first prize in the club shoot on 

 9 out of 10. and also first in three sweeps. Second prize was div. 

 bv Moller and Miller on 8>|.
