The Forester Gun Club Tournament. 



Davenport, la., Feb. 12.— The tournament held by the Forester 

 Gun Club, of this city, commenced Tuesday, Feb 9, and continued 

 four dass. Everything was done by the club to make it pleasant 

 for the visitors, and every onfe went home with a determination 

 to attend the next tournament held by the Foresters. The 

 weather was cold, with a high wind from northwest, mak- 

 ing live bird3 hard to stop in a 50yd. boundry, aud targets hard to 

 hit. Bluerock targets and traps, with North's electric pu'ls, were 

 used, and gave the best satisfaction in every respect. The online 

 work was done by Mr. Krany, assisted by Kerker, and when the 

 shoots were ended the money was ready, providing the shooter- 

 had done his part. Mr. Goos was referee at the live-bird traps and 

 Mr. Racster at the target traps. Owing to sickness Mr. McMurcby 

 and Mr. Marshall were unable to be present, and the team match 

 between Marshall and Heikes vs. McMurchy and Budd was not 

 shot. We can't see why Heikes was not present, something serious 

 or Rol would have been on hand. Among the visiting sportsmen 

 were: John Schick, Mt. Pulaski, 111.; Baker, Deer Lake, la.; An- 

 son, Amboy, 111.; Schwording, Walcott, la.; Fairall, Iowa City; 

 Wooster, Amboy. 111.; Strawn, Stie« and Dunn, Jacksonville, Dj.; 

 Rex, Virginia, 111.: McKorkle, Philadelphia, Iowa; Stone, West 

 Liberty; Van Devere, Waverly. Ia.; McBude, Victor, la.; Shad, 

 Emmettsburg, la.; Wilson, St. Paul. Minn.; Jones. Philadelphia.

Lively Letter from Oregon. 



Since last writing the shooters of Portland, Oregon, had their 

 first live bird shoot for a number of years. This shoot was for 

 championship wing shot medal and was won by Carroll E. Hughes 

 on a score of twelve out of fifteen. There were four ties on twelve 

 and in the shoot off Hughes won. The next thing on ihe tapis is 

 a twenty-five live birds per man, $20 entrance, birds extra. A 

 fine gold medal donated by the senial Jamts Oaraher and known 

 as the Caraher medal will go with first money. Following this 

 will be the Tscoma (Wash ) in-doars tournament of two days 

 given by the Tacoma Bine, Rod and Gun Club. A good many of 

 our boys will probably attend this shoot and a good time is ex- 

 pected. Then comes our shoot tor the b a st ail-around trap shot 

 of Oregon rmdal. This trophy was donated hv our County Re- 

 corder, Wm. Dudley, a gentleman who is ss deeply interested in 

 sport with the rod and gun as one could wish to meet. The medal 

 i3 a beauty, of solid gold, and emblematic of live bir d shooting. 

 It has four very fine diamonds, and will make each ofthebovs 

 anxiou3 to became the owner. This will be contested for on ten 

 Jive birds, ten single Peorias and five pairs of doirble Peorias. 

 Already the names are coming in, and as the entrance is but five 

 dollars, and it is open to the whole State, we expect at least 

 seventy-five shooters. 



Judge S. H. Green aud the writer went down to the famous 

 Green Lake a few days since and had the pleasure of bagging 

 thirty canva?backs and about a dozen trash ducks. This lake, 

 like lots of others, has been shot to death by pot and market 

 hunters and unless strong measures are taken will in a short time 

 be a thing of the past as far as canvasbacks goes. The Judge, 

 although not in the best of health, still enjoys the sport, and 

 strange to say his ill health has no effect on his old time shooting 

 form, for he can kiB ducks as well as any one that I have ever- 

 seen. 



I am very anxious to learn more about the great "gathering of 

 the clans" at the World's Fair. I think each State in the Union 

 should be represented in a match for the world's champiorship. 

 I know that Oregon will be if I have to go myself. Sand Hilt.,
