The East. won. 



This was a close race, especially at the close. "Edwards" was 

 the last man to shoot, and had he broken bis last bird he wonld 

 have tied the race. He missed, and the East scored the. win by 

 that one bird. No race could be. closer and be decided. 



Heikes in this race ran another 100 straight. Rolla seemed to 

 be unable to miss anything this week. He has not missed a bird 

 in the shoots for averaee for the past three days. 



Wolsteneroft dropped three birds in the 100, He was probably 

 all right for 100 straight, but. had a defective shell three different 

 times, the report making no more noise than a squib. Wolsten- 

 eroft, as is well known, shoots a nitro powder and loads his own 

 shells. The squibbing of these shells is set down to one of the un- 

 accountable freaks of the explosive, it not having fed down right 

 in the shell.

The day closed in an execrable rain. 



The averages for to-day will be awarded, as is at this writing 

 understood. The averages for yesterday are: First, Wolsteneroft, 

 Heikes and "Windsor", no bird missed during the day in average 

 shoots (guarantees); second, Whitney; third, Bensootten, Dr. Mil- 

 ler. Stevens, F. E. Mallory. 



Scott McDonald made a run of 75 straight to-day, which he says 

 is his best record. This is a week of records. 



PENNSYLVANIA STATE ORGANIZATION. 



There is no State organization of the clubs of Pennsylvania, 

 and for some time there has been talk of formulating and com- 

 pleting such an organization. This came to a decisive point to- 

 night, and a meeting was called at Corry Hose rooms about 9:30, 

 which was well attended by the Pennsylvania sportsmen now in 

 town. There wpre present Messrs. H. A. Penrose, A. M. Howard, 

 Jas. and W. H. Wolsteneroft, Jos. Thurman, Jr., Elmer Shaner, 

 Wm. Wasson, F. E. Mallory, J. McClure, R. W. Blydenburg, Clyde 

 Wilcox. F. E. Ward, J. F. Austin, F. Lowry, A. J. Russ and others. 

 Clubs were represented from Corry, Erie, Oil City, Frankford, 

 Philadelphia and Germantown. After informal discussioD, Mr. 

 Jos. Tnurman, Jr., of Germantown, was called to the chair, E. 

 Hough, of Chicago, being asked to keep the minutes of the meet- 

 ing. 



It was moved by F. E. Mallory, seconded and carried unani- 

 mously that Mr. H. A. Penrose, of Corry, be chosen president of 

 the new organization. Mr. Penrose then took the chair. 



It was moved by Mr. -lames Wolsteneroft and seconded by Mr. 

 Austin, that Mr. Jos. Thurman, Jr., of Germantown, be chosen 

 vice-president. Carried. 



It was moved by Mr. Jas. Wolsteneroft and seconded by Mr. W. 

 H. Wolsteneroft that Mr. Elmer Shaner, of Pittsburgh, be chosen 

 secretary. Carried. 



It was moved by Mr. Austin and duly seconded that Mr. Jas. 

 Wolsteneroft, of Frankford, Philadelphia, be chosen treasurer. 

 Carried. 



Upon motion of Mr. Jas. Wolsteneroft the president appointed 

 the Board of Directors, who were named as follows: Messrs. F. 

 E. Mallory, of Oil City; W. H. Wolsteneroft, of Frankford, Phila- 

 delphia; F. F. Davidson, of Allegheny City; Brelsford, of Harris- 

 bnrg; and W. H. Starbird, of Corry. 



Upon motion of Mr. F. E. Mallory the president and two asso- 

 ciates, to be chosen by himself, were constituted the committee 

 on By-Laws. Upon further motion of Mr. Austin the same com- 

 mittee was constituted one of arrangements, to select time and 

 place for the first State meeting and tournament. 



Upon motion of Mr. Blydenburg it, was decided to call the new 

 organization "The Pennsylvania State Sportsmen's Association." 

 Upon motion of Mr. W. H. Wolsteneroft the Keystone target was 

 adopted as the State bird to be used in the tournaments. The 

 meeting then adjourned. 



Thus was completed a very good evening's work, which should 

 have been done long ago. There are numbers of good clubs all 

 over Pennsylvlnia, and the State organization should prove a 

 strong one. It is probable that the first fall meeting will be held 

 this fall at Pittsburgh. It is contrary to the State laws to shoot 

 live birds at the trap, but it is certain that two or three days of the 

 meet will be put in at live birds. Pittsburgh is the best point for 

 the first State meet. 



Tom. Peacock got in to-night, late, but better than never. 

 ■Saturday, Fifth Day, Aug. S3. 



The day was raw, cold and exceedingly disagreeable. The num- 

 ber of shooters will be seen to have fallen off materially. Penrose, 

 Dickey and Cady shot at. 20 birds each to warm up the traps, 

 Penrose getting ouly 7, Cady 16, Dickey lti. Sweeps were then 

 shot through the morning. Score:

First, second and third div., fourth shot off and Wolsteneroft 

 won. 



The last contest of tbe day and the closing event of the tourna- 

 ment was the much anticipated individual championship match 

 for the target championship of America and the valuable diamond 

 ring offered in token thereof by the Keystone Mfg. Co. The 

 ring has been exhibited on the grounds during the week, and is 

 one of the most beautiful diamond rings ever offered in the 

 country as a shooter's prize. The total cost of the ring was $135. 

 The stone, a very fine one, is set in the middle of a miniature gold 

 "Keystone" bird, the latter being gypsey-set. on a heavy circlet of 

 rough and polished gold. Tho whole ring is at once unique and 

 elegant, and makes a trophy seldom equalled. 



There was much discussion before this snoot as to the rules 

 under which the contest should be shot. Under the usual rules 

 it seemed like offering the trophy either to Heikes or Wolsten- 

 eroft, whose long runs this week have been almost unprecedented. 

 Heikes to-day closed another run of 170 straight and again in the 

 same week broke the record. Earlier in this report I have said 

 that Heikes had not missed a bird in the average shoots. This is 

 slightly incorrect . He missed one bird in doubles, but not any in 

 the singles. At the end of three and a half days, in this shoot, 

 barring two shoots at unknown angles, Heikes had not missed 

 one single. bird he had shot at, at 16yds. That is to say, at regular 

 distance and rules, he had shown that he could shoot day after 

 day and not miss a bird. Wolsteneroft was but little behind him. 

 It was small wonder, then, that when the question was put to a 

 vote of the contestants, the choice was for the unknown angles, 

 or "professional rules." 



Full enough description has already been made in this report of 

 these rules. Their application in this shoot is something that 

 every trap-shooter ought to study carefully. This was the most 

 noteworthy and interesting shoot of any recent day in target 

 shooting. It is the first important effort to introduce variety and 

 to break the dead level. It proved to be the refuge of the experts 

 against each other— a little tough on "Roll" and " Woolsen," ap- 

 parently, but better, as a last resort, for the majority. 



Before the race began it was announced that if for any cause, 

 such as the failure of a gun to cock, etc., the indicator would be 

 whirled again, aud the shooter not have the same trap without 

 change. This was for tho benefit of Honest John Ruble and his 

 little non-eocking invention, which was explained earlier in this 

 report. It was also announced that a bird broken in trapping 

 would also cause another whirl of the indicator. 



There was a great deal of complaint about these rules to the 

 effect that it was "all in the way a fellow's luck run." It was 

 even tried to be shown after the shoot that Wolsten croft's success 

 was due to his "luck" in getting easier birds. That is of course 

 all nonsense. No man on earth could watch a race of 20 shooters, 

 at 100 birds and all sorts of angles and tell at the end of it how 

 many birds of each trap each shooter had had. As a matter of 

 fact the element of luck would in all probability he pretty evenly 

 divided. Until this feature of luck does take some place in our 

 target shoots they will continue to grow more and more monot- 

 onous and uninteresting, until finally the answer will be forced 

 upon the people who ask the question, Why does trap-shooting in- 

 terest wane? 



And yet there should this be said: The "professional rules" do 

 not offer really unknown angles. Of the five men who stand be- 

 hind the five traps governed by each roll of the indicator, the last 

 one, and the last two really, know the. traps which they are to 

 have. This is obvious. It ought to be remedied. To be sure, No. 

 5 man may get No. 1 trap, a left quarterer, and have to shoot at it 

 50yds. or over, Rolla Heikes thought that this was not a test of 

 skill, as the gun would not do the feat regularly. Yet he and 

 Wolsteneroft and plenty of others did break that bird time and 

 again. Suppose they didn't. It was more fun to see them miss it 

 than it was to see them break 20 at 16vds. 



Such, then, were the conditions. Under them it is very prob- 

 able, that Mr. Wolstencroft's score of 94 out of 100 is the greatest 

 feat of target shooting ever seen at any target, and it is yet to be 

 seen that Carver or any professional could equal it. It is prob- 

 able that Mr. Heikes's record of 180 straight at the "amateur 

 rules" will be beaten before Mr. Wolstencroft's 94 out of 100 at 

 the. "professional rules." 



Of Mr. Wolstencroft's shooting it must be said that ho appeared 

 in admirable form and showed himself beyond question an expert 

 in art of shooting on the wing. Abandoning altogether his old 

 n^ppy style, far more brilliant and far more risky, he showed 

 evident effort at calculation and judgment of distances, which 

 made his work admirable in the extreme. For Rolla Heikes, old 

 quail shooter as he is, this race had no unqualified terrors. Rolla 

 is a shooter, and about the safest man in the country to back at 

 th'S very race! unless we must bar the winner of to-daj T . We will 

 wait a while before we see his 85 out of 100 beaten. The nearest 

 to it to-day was Mr. Pope, of Olean, with 83. Thus the new rules 

 brought into close company with a record breaker a man whose 

 average does not place him anywhere near there under the old 

 rules. This is just exactly what is wanted, Q. E. D. 



Wolsteneroft shot under tha name of "Wolsey." The following

W. H. Wolsteneroft, of Frankford, Philadelphia, won first, the 

 diamond ring and the individual championship; Rolla O. Heikes,of 

 Dayton, Ohio, won second alone; A. P. Pope, of Olean, N. Y., won 

 third alone; O. R. Dickey, of Boston, G. Cady, of New London, 

 Conn., div. fourth; "A. James," of Philadelphia, won fifth alone. 



The matches closed at 7:05 P. M., nearly in the dark. 



Thus ended the Corry third annu al tournament, which for stated 

 reasons has seemed of unusual interest and significance. R.ated 

 quite aside from these reasons, the tournament has,, on the whole, 



been a successful one, in spite of the abominable weather, which 

 has been everything it could to discourage both the shooters and 

 the management. About 30,000 birds have been broken. Mr. Pen- 

 rose thought he would have broken 100,000 at the three batteries 

 had the week been what he wished. However, he is not feeling 

 in the least bad over the result of his shoot, and no one of the 

 attendants, amusingly light as has been the "earnings" of this 

 gang of crack shots, has the least word of dissatisfaction to-night. 

 The L. C. Smith cup, the Peters trophy, the Keystone trophy, the 

 championship ring and $1,200 in guarantees, make a good list of 

 attractions for even such experienced hands as those who made 

 the main attendance here. 



The boys separate to-night and to-morrow. Next week will see 

 most of them at the "Three J.'s" shoot of Jack. John and J. W. at 

 Detroit. E. HoiraH. 



A DAY AT DUNELLEN. 



In response to the circular sent out by Charley Smith, announc- 

 ing an open to-all shoot for Aug. 22, a pleasant party of sportsmen 

 gathered on the grounds of the Middlesex Club upon tha t date. 

 The programme called for a few events at blueroeks, but Jersey 

 shots never take kindly to the artificials and consequently the 

 entries were light. As soon as the live birds were produced the 

 entry list began to fatten, and the real sport began. The birds 

 furnished were a good lot, only a few could really be called duf- 

 fers, consequently the scores are highly commendable. The 

 shooting of Kleinz was of the highest order; of the 39 birds he 

 shot at he lost only one, and that fell dead out of bounds. His 

 skill is tbe more creditable as he was using a new Parker gun that 

 was a stranger to him. The feature of the day's sport was the 

 miss-and-out, and those that left before it was concluded missed 

 a treat. The race was a hot. one. The three leaders killed 50 of 

 the 51 birds shot at; and if Smith bad not slipped up on a hard 

 black bird that towered to the right, they would certainly have 

 had to draw the money, a« it was getting too dark to continue. 

 His miss, under the circumstances, was nothing to his discredit.
