EL PASO. 



EL PASO, Tex., July 10.— The first summer tournament of the 

 International Gun Club was held July 3 and 4. The days 

 were perfect and more good scores ought to have been made, but 

 as our club is young, having been organized onlv since. April, we 

 consider we did fairly well. As visitors we had Gillet, Boxter 

 Hornbeck, Roouey and Van Sickle, from Alpine, Tex.: and Chebott 

 from San Antonio, Tex. AU matches at singles were shot from 

 five traps under the rapid firing system, and everything worked 

 as smoothly as clockwork, every one declaring they had never 

 seen a finer arrangement. Mr. J. R. Smith carried off the smok- 

 ing set for best average first day, and Chas. Layer the gun case 

 and gold badge for best average second dav and the two days 

 combined. The targets were Peorias. American Association rule* 

 Ties divided unless otherwise noted. Match 1, 9 singles, $1.50

TOWANDA, PA. 



THE tournament of the Towanda Rod and Gun Club on July 4 

 was well attended, and enjoyed bv all the participants. It 

 called together a number of our best wing shots on game birds our 

 county produces. For instance, one of those who faced the trap, 

 had m the early morning went into a tangled swamp-thicket and 

 bagged four woodcock. His score at the trap was one out of six 

 and again one out of nine. In the last issue of the Forest and 

 Stream the editor speaks of the 4th of July shoots and the ap- 

 pearance ot the bird hunter,, where he is known by the number of 

 'goose esrgs," still a number who practice each 'week at flying 

 targets can as a general thing turn out a long row of the same 

 kind ot truit. Events were shot from 3 traps, 16yds. rise, ties div. 

 unless noted. 9 single targets, sweepstakes, entrance 50c:

CATSKILL. 



CAT5K1LL, N. Y., July 12.— Tolley's Seventh Kingbird Tourna- 

 ment took place Tuesday July 8. The day was one of those 

 very hot ones. The elevated position of the grounds gave what 

 little breeze there was a chance to circulate under the canvas at 

 firing point which the manager very wisely constructed, other- 

 wise the shooters would have roasted. The number of shooters 

 did not come up to expectation, owing, we suppose, to the grand 

 tournament to be held at Saratoga 15, 16 and 17. What there was 

 of them enjoyed it as pronounced by all. The ten events were all 

 shot out according to programme, although the guarantee purses 

 fell short of being profitable to the manager, who says he will run 

 his shoots as advertised under any circumstance. The following 

 shooters were on the grounds and participated: Goggen. Paul, 

 Patten, Betts and Ruth of Troy, N. Y., our official scorer. Derby 

 of the Argils and Bemis of Albany, Frank Pkteeon and Valk of 

 Saufccerties, N. Y, Frank Post of Park Ridge and J. D. Van Riper 

 of Montvale, N. J., Wm. Crosby of Batavia, N. Y., who, by the 

 way. was an unexpected guest, representing the Baker gun. He 

 proved to be one of the finest with a gun as well as one of finest 

 of men we have met. The shooting was from five traps, rapid 

 firing, with scores as follows. Ties divided except those shot out 

 as will be seen below:
