 Steck, Henry Ehlers, Gao. Hoffman. W. E. Phillips, C. D. Gam- 

 mon, A. VV. Reeves. Dr. J. M. Hutchinson, Geo. Airey, Geo. T. 

 Farmer. 



Geo. Airey has been sick and in bed for two days, and as this 

 left his place on the first- team vacant Mr. C. B. Dicks was chosen 

 to shoot in his stead. Mr. Airey thought he would be well enough 

 to shoot by Thursday. 



The Kansas Otfcy second team is announced as follows: E. J. 

 Smith, D. S. Gordon, J. Lee Porter, Geo. Schroeder, Geo. W. 

 Youmans, Con. F. Holmes, W. B. Cosley, Geo. Stockwell. W. G. 

 Eads, Ed Hickman. 



Wednesday, Third Day, Nov. 12. 



The weather was clear, warm and pleasant. The attendance 

 was so large that the balconies of the club house, the walls and all 

 points near the score were uncomfortably crowded. Many shoot- 

 ers of prominence were on hand from a distance. Mr. L. M. Har- 

 rison came down from Minneapolis, Messrs. Eli Young. W. Wood- 

 nutt. and Will Allen ar« in from Hutchinson, Kas., and from all 

 the country about the representation is good. 



felton— rile x, (Cou ti nued) . 



At an early hour the contestants of the nnfinished match of 

 yesterday were at the score. Col. Eelton as imperturbable and Mr. 

 Riley as unconcerned as ever. There was question whether Col. 

 Felton could keep the gait till the close, and it was thought that 

 his big antagonist would beat him out still by two or three, but 

 the event showed otherwise. One after another each man grassed 

 his birds and when it came to the last ti ye birds the race, was st ill 

 a tie, each having dropped two in the morning's work. Shot after 

 shot, and still it was a tie. Col. Felton cut down his fiftieth bird 

 in good shape, and left the score amid continued cheers. Jim 

 Riley grinned, stepped up and slashed down his last bird in his 

 inimitable style, and the race was still a tie. The enthusiasm was 

 immense. Col. Felton threw his arms around Jim Riley's waist, 

 or about half way around, for it is a good deal of a waist, and 

 lifted him from the ground. "I'd rather tie you than beat you, 

 Jim," said he. And Jim grinned and chewed gum. Score of 

 last 20:

AB. PRICE— PORTER. 



I ?A brilliant and highly interesting contest was that of Ab. Price 

 for Chicago and J. B. Porter for Kansas City. The latter was px- 

 pected to walk out of this easily three birds winner, but your old 

 Uncle Abner kept sawing wood and got in his best work toward 

 the close. Porter is one of the. Kansas City reliables, and they 

 think him their best on hard birds. This opinion is unwarranted 

 and at fast birds he shoots a losing game. He has a 10-gange 

 Greener, which is the longest-reaching gun of which any record is 

 at hand in the minds of the shooters here, and he killed pigeons 

 with his second barrel, cutting them down clean and dead at dis- 

 tances beyond the hope of the. average gun at this shoot. Geo. 

 Kleinman, on whose judgment we should place much reliance, 

 says that Porter killed several birds at 75yds. at least. Nothing 

 like it was seen at the shoot. Porter's 5th, 12th, 16th, 18th, 19th 

 and 33d birds were stopped after they were out of all sort of shot- 

 gun range, and that is all of it. But this was not pigeon shooting 

 and was a losing game, as witness the loss of the 31st and 33d 

 birds. Porter is a very slow and deliberate shooter, both with 

 right and left. This is a style in which the percentage is all 

 against the shooter. Mr. Price's style at times, and he missed 

 some soft incoming quarterers in away which would have let a 

 quicker shot than Porter in to beat him. As it was, this pair also 

 quit a tie, and the city of the hills looked down her nose. Scare:

DICKS— THOMAS. 



Chicago still 7 birds ahead and only two races to shoot. "Well 

 here's Andy Thomas" said Kansas City, "and he's safe to beat 

 your Ben Dicks about 3 birds, and Elliott'l do the rest." But Ren 

 did not look worried. He was just about as fat and big and good 

 natured as Andy Thomas. "Ben is something of a bad man him- 

 self," said Chicago, with some slight feeling of satisfaction as 

 that florid 400-pounder trod the mark. This was a nice little race. 

 The Chicago boys watched Ben until they saw he was about 

 normal in temperature, and then they hove a sigh of content, and 

 began to ask the Kansas City boys when they wanted to shoot the 

 saw-off match. Ben and Andy fell on the birds hard. They 

 found their curves, as Capt. Anson would say, and hit them for 

 46 each, finishing the third tied race at a stage when the shooting 

 was getting to be mighty nervous work. Cheers greeted this 

 plucky pair a.s they left the score. The Chicago team would have 

 carried Ben Dicks on their shoulders, but they couldn't because 

 he was too heavy. Same way with Andv Thomas. Score:

H. KLEINMAN— ELLIOTT. 



It was now generally conceded that Jim Elliott could not beat 

 Henry Kleinman 7 birds in a 50 bird race. This he would have to 

 do in order to tie the totals. Both Chicago and Kansas City had 

 saved what each thought its most reliahle man till the last. Henry 

 went into the race with all the advantage in his favor by way of 

 the lead in total score. The old duck shooter, however, appeared 

 to be a bit nervous for some reason, and his fourth and eleventh 

 birds got away from him, amid many Kansas City yells from the 

 uncultured crowd of spectators. The reason for most of the 

 veteran's uneasiness began to be apparent. His left barrel, when 

 shot on the ground, could he seen to be doing very loose and 

 scattering work. Moreover, the gun missed fire several times. 

 It missed fire with the right barrel on the very first bird, which 

 Harry, showing poor judgment, too, killed with the left at once. 

 The gun was so worn or so mis-made in the chambers that the 

 shells fairly rattled around in the breech. "1 never will risk 

 beating my team by shooting this gun in another pigeon match," 

 said Henry, as he turned from the score. The gun is an old, old 

 Tommy Hasdell heavy 12-gauge, and is no longer a modern arm. 

 It kept Chicago on the ragged edge for one-half hour to-day, as 

 bird after bird skinned through its meager left, while Elliott was 

 cutting down his birds neat, swift and clean, as only he can do. 

 b Elliott's style is too well known to need description. He shoots 

 a grand-stand second barrel, bang-bang, which often does him no 

 service, but his is the best style for a winning pigeon race. Elliott 

 missed clean with his second on his 1st, 2d, 3d, 7th, 10th and 14th 

 and the latter one went on over the line, too. He missed clean 

 with his second also his 19th and 32d birds, but made great second- 

 barrel stops on his 36th, 41st and 42d birds, meeting prolonged ap- 

 plause. He failed to hit his 45th with the second, but got it all 

 right, though his 46th, hit hard and full with both barrels, went 

 over the line. For Elliott's shooting it, can only be said that he 

 added another to his brilliant performances at the trap and once 

 more impressed all with the fact that he is a hard man to beat. 

 He all butpulled his team out ahead, and cut down the lead until 

 it left a very meager victory for Chicago, 



Henry Kleinman, under the circumstances above related, which 

 are given in the interest of justice only, and not with the idea of 

 explaining anything in Chicago's favor, did better than almost 

 any other man would have done. He lost7 birds to Elliott's 2, and 

 admitted to Elliott during the last few rounds of the sboot that if 

 the birds had been a little harder he would have lost the race for 

 Chicago. It was nervous work toward the last, when Henry's 

 47th bird fell dead out, but he got thenext two and saved the race. 

 On the 50th bird, as on his 1st, Henry's right barrel snapped, but 

 ones more he showed his carelessness, or his overconfidence. by 

 swinging right on and killing it clean with his left. Elliott then 

 killed his last in elegant style. Chicago heaved a great sigh of 

 relief, and a mighty shout went up over the battle ended. Capt. 

 McGee proposed three cheers for the Chicago team, and they were 

 given with a will, and returned by Chicago in kind with hearty 

 accord and a formal vote of thanks for courteous treatment. Be- 

 low is the score of the last pair:

JAR Elliott .23231 " 11 , , P l i , 1112—48 



The grand total was announced to be: 

 Chicago 443 Kansas City 440 



This is certainly close work and shows how hard the fight has 

 been. It is wonderful how closely these two cities are matched in 

 this team shooting. Last spring, when Kansas City won the first 

 match, the score was Kansas City 420, Chicago 416. The visitors 

 of to-day are therefore still 3 birds behind in actual number killed. 



So closed the return match. It was as pretty and pleasan t an 

 affair as ever was shot. It was a clean, fine gentlemanly shoot. 



No fault was found with the decisions of the referee, except 

 that some infant on the daily press here saw fit to call "erroneous" 

 one of John Watson's very best decisions, and one which showed 

 him a real referee. This was in the Price-Porter race. A bird 

 was caught by the foot and tail when the trap was sprung, and 

 fluttered, unable to rise. Mr. Watson called "No bird," and 

 shortly after the bird freed itself and was killed by Porter, Mr. 

 Watson made him shoot another bird, which he also killed. This, 

 In the mind of the critic, caused Porter to miss 2 birds later on 

 in the race, which is certainly an amusing view to take for any 

 one who will look at the scattering of his misses, or who knows 

 how very little liitely Porter Is to get rattled at all. It was said 



Gauge. Weight.

that no rule is found to cover this decision. This is true. Neither 

 is there anything in the rules to cover except by construction the 

 decisionin the Abe Atkinson case, where Abe by mistake pulled 

 the loaded barrel and not the blank one first; yet Mr. Wat- 

 son scored this bird lost for Chicago and not a "No bird." Mr. 

 Watson uses common sense and justice where rules fail, and any 

 shooter knows that no set of rule=i yet framed covers all the ex- 

 igencies which can ari=e in a pigeon match. But none of this 

 matter had any prominence at all at the shoot, and everything 

 was perfectly smooth and courteous. 



In one matter the Kansas City team had an advantage in this 

 shoot. They out-gunned Chicago altogether, as was clearly 

 proved by the execution shown on the field. Following is the 

 table showing description of the guns of both teams:

The loading followed by the two teams was also different. All 

 but two men of the Kansas City team shot with what is known as 

 the "New York load," put up by Von Lengerke & Detmold ex- 

 pressly for pigeon shooting. This is E. O. powder (not Sehultze, 

 as was reported by some of the papers) and No. 7}& shot. The 

 wadding is a black-faced special, a pink edge heavy special and a 

 card over the powder, with light paper over shot. The powder is 

 loaded loosely and not crowded apparently. Vories and Twit- 

 chell shot Sehultze, the former using 8s in both barrels. 



The loading of the Chicago team was briefly as follows: Stone, 

 Sehultze and No. 7s; Mussey, Sehultze, Ss and 7f; Eich, Sehultze 

 and 7s; J. E. Price, Sehultze, 8s and 7s; Geo. Kleinman, Sehultze 

 and 7s in right barrel. Dead Shot and 8s in left; Abe Kleinman, 

 Schuitze, 8s and 7s; Henry Kleinman, Sehultze and Dead Shot, 8s 

 and 7s; Ab. Price, Schuitze, 8s and 7s; Felton, Schuitze, 7s and 6s; 

 Dicks, Schuitze and 7s. 



The following is a summary of the flights of each shooter. It 

 giv«s briefly the conditions of each race. Attention should be 

 called to the fact of the necessary length of such a report as this, 

 which renders it impossible to give in this issue the full detail, 

 number of trap, number of birds, etc., of paeh shooter's perform- 

 ance. Forest and Stream is, however, in possession of abso- 

 lutely the only full, perfect and accurate score of this kind in ex- 

 istence, no other sporting paper having enterprise or hustle 

 enough to get it. Next week, or as soon as possible, this full and 

 detailed summary will be published, not only for the first team 

 match but for the second. It is a matter of over 3,000 lines of 

 space, and although the copy is in it can not possibly find space 

 this week, although it will eventually be given to complete the 

 chronicle of a shoot which has warranted the best and fullest 

 effort possible at the hands of any sporting journal claiming to 

 give the shooting news.

A few other small and uninteresting events were run off at the 

 target stands, but the mam interest still clung to the live-bird 

 shooting. 



In the evening the generous Kansas City hosts laid their visitors 

 under one more obligation by taking them in a body, forty odd in 

 all, to a theatrical performance at the Warder" Grand Opera 

 House. They will follow up the hospitalities to-morrow evening 

 by a banquet of state. This is a great week, and a prettv hot pace 

 is set for the boys. 



Thursday, Fourth, Bay, Nov. 13. 



The weather was fair and warm, and the attendance held up 

 well. A number of new faces were seen among those of the visit- 

 ing sportsmen of the country about, among others the burly and 

 jovial Paul Francke, of St. Joseph. Mr. C. W. Budd refereed the 

 first two races, Mr. Francke officiating from that on out. Andy 

 Thomas captained the Kansas City team. Shooting began at an 

 early hour,, the matches of the second teams being resumed.

It was nearly dark when the last race of the day closed, that 

 between the veteran John Watson, of Chicago, and Capt. J. H. 

 McGee, manager-in-chief of the Kansas City forces. Capt. Mc- 

 Gee shot Col. Felton's Scott, Premier, and the 42 grains of 

 Schuitze made the 6^lbs. little gun pound his shoulder (which 

 has never been over-strong since, a fracture it once sustained) so 

 severely that he was fairly in misery by the close of the match, 

 and his score therefore went to pieces. At the 30th bird he tried 

 two shots with Elliott's gun, then he tried the Scott again with 

 Elliott's load, then at the 42d bird he gave them all up and took 

 up his own 16-gauge Greener, with which he shot out the race, 

 doing work that was a bit easier on his shoulder. John Watson 

 shot a steady race till toward the close, when some several birds 

 bade him good bye. Score:

And now the second team match was over and Chicago, the 

 jubilant, was 16 birds the worst of it. Such is life. WTien Chicago 

 came down here she was surer of winning the second team race 

 than the first, and would have been willing to pit the total 20 

 scores against the Kansas City 20. As it is, Chicago has won the 

 match sue feared she could not win and lost the one on which she 

 thought she had a certainty. A study of the summary given 

 below will show that the percentage all goes to point that Kansas 

 City can just about beat Chicago at any kind of a pigeon match 

 she wants to name. Before she shoots another match with these 

 people Chicago wants to sit down and do a whole lot of thinking. 

 As Capt. McGee says, Kansas City will shoot any sort of a team 

 race; she will back a man to kill more birds inside of a boundary 

 of 5yds. (meaning Jim Elliot), or she will back a man to kill more 

 birds outside of a 40 or 50vds. boundary (meaning long-range 

 Porter). But has it all not been interesting study? 



It should go on record that Percy Stone and M. J. Eich did the 

 gathering for Chicago and Lil. Scott for Kansas Ciiy. Mike Eich 

 is the best retriever, his method being to flash his gold tooth in 

 the eyes of the bird and pick it up before it recovers. The follow- 

 ing is the

As in the case of the first teams, the full details of each man's 

 race summary, showing flight, number of trap, etc., must be pub- 

 lished later, for lack of space. This paper is the only one pos- 

 sessing such a score, nor can that now by any possibility be ob- 

 tained elsewhere. 



The following table shows the guns and loads of the second 

 teams. It is confidentl y stated that no other naper will present
