CLEVELAND. 



Cleveland, O., Dec. 11.— The Cleveland Gun Club is going after 

 tbe, honor at champion shooting organization of tbe State. Recog- 

 nizing the Niles Club as at present holding the pennant— if there 

 be any— a challenge has been issued by the Cleveland Gun Cluh 

 to the gentlemen of Nilos to meet in three contests for glory and 

 honor, rbc conditions are ten men from each organization am 

 50 birds per man. The first shoot will be held at Niles and th 

 second a-. Cleveland. The third is to be decided by the respective 

 captains of the two organizations. A challenge has been drawn 

 up and sent to the Mies team. There is scarcely any doubt of it 

 acceptance. 



Tbe contest for the Smith gun among the local shots has rapidly 

 narrowed down to two men." Prior to to-day the gun bad been 

 won once by VV berry. Swcetman and L. O.Jones, and tbe latter 

 had tied tor it with Poplo wsky. The last name 1 gen tleman failed 

 to arrive on the scene of combat until too late to compete to-day, 

 an.l tbe gun went to L. O. Jones a second time by default. That 

 gave Jones a lead in the race, aud the lead lasted about three 

 hours. At the cud of that time Levi Wherry, the old reliable, 

 with that steady swing which rivals the rhythm of pendulum 

 beats, bad knocked over 40 birds out of a possible 50, and with a 

 handicap of 6 to his credit, had for the second time placed the gun 

 to ins credit. L. O. Jones aud Wherry have each won the gun 

 twice. Still, with that lead it is not impossible that some person 

 may take it away from either of them yet. North has been the 

 only man with -'sand" enough to try for the gun from the scratch. 

 1 o-day he made 44, which was splendid shooting considering th it 

 part o t it was made in the twilight. It is well to remark in this 

 connection that Wherry's last 14 birds were shot at when tbe haze 

 seemed thick enough to be cut into slices and passed around, 

 with a little gunpowder smoke for sauce, aud plenty of fresh air 

 for an appetizer. Tbe targets did not fly auv of the best. The 

 ett quartering bird tried to mount above the tree tops several 

 !i mi? \ a . Uu . the driver pointed for earth before It had passed more 

 than 20ft, from the traps. 



Taking all things into consideration the scores of the members 

 were good W. H. Tamblvu won the first club badge and "Fritz" 

 the second. The score of the shoot is as follows: In the first 

 column ot totals is the actual score and the second tbe score with 

 handicap added:

HUTCHINSON, KANSAS. 



I H\n the pleasure of attending Elliott's great tournament 

 at Kansas City. I think it was one of the grandest meetings ever 

 held in America and such was the verdict of all the sportsmen 

 that I met while there. The banquet given iu honor of the Chicago 

 shooters was, as the boys would say, "simply immense." The race 

 between Kansas City and Chicago was exciting from start to 

 finish, especially the match between Col. C. E. Felton, of Chicago, 

 and J. E. Riley, of Kansas City; Col. Felton shoots a wonderful 

 race tor a man of his years. When the scorer announced the 

 score a tie, 16 out of 50, the spectators went wild with excitement. 

 We. have hopes of getting up a Kansas team some dav and to give 

 the Missouri boys a whirl. Here are scores of our last shoots.

 . 0HA ^ P10N ELLIOTT. — While in New York city. Champion J. 

 A. R. Elliott had some interesting practice at the Carteret Gun 

 Club grounds with Messrs. Hoey, Capt. Money and Herr Justus 

 von Lengerke. The weather was cold and dry. with a strong wind 

 blowing, favoring the birds, which were tbe best on the ground, all 

 blue or slate-colored match birds and in quality above the average 

 good lots. To make it interesting sides were chosen, Messrs 

 Elliott and Hoey shooting against Capt. Money and Mr. von Len- 

 gerke for the price of the birds:

Elliott's side won again. Mr. von Lengerke seemed to have the 

 hardest birds, nearly all his birds being strong drivers, and out of 

 all birds shot at by him only three fell inside of the trap line. He 

 shot with his lit tie 5141b. 2fiin. barrel Francotte feather-weight gun 

 with much lighter loads of ammunition than the others" yet he 

 did not avail himself of the offered allowance of 2yds. until the 

 third match. All shot V. L. & D. match cartridges and Schultze 

 or E. C. powders. Mr. Elliott used his new Greener gun, Capt 

 Money his London Baker and Mr. Hoey his Grant gun. The third 

 match resulted in a victory for Capt, Money's team, as follows-

Elliott's form was very much like when he defeated Mr Mur- 

 phy, and some of his misses were probably due to carlessness 



Champion John Brewer, of Philadelphia, is out with a challenge 

 to James Elliott, of Kansas City, to shoot the latter a match for 

 any amouut of money up to 85,000.
