THE SECOND DAY'S WORK. 



Wednesday was an ideal spring day, the sun having sufficient 

 force to make the air soft and balmy as in June, and there oeing 

 no wind to bother the flight of the targets. The shooters were all 

 up bright and early to enjoy the air which gave them stout appe- 

 tites for breakfast. At this meal the writer along with his '"deadly 

 friend" of our Western contemporary, er joyed an elegant dish of 

 irout, served up for their especial benefit by Wm. F. Sommerson, 

 who on the previous evening had sent a "special messenger" to 

 one of the mountain streams in order to provide the feast. That, 

 they were a toothsome and "give us some more" morsal can be 

 vouched for by my co-eater Friend Billy, when next we visit 

 Staunton we'll give thee a chance to use thy special messenger 

 once more. 



The entry lists on the second day were not as large as on the 

 first, although more targets were thrown. The programme was 

 somewhat changed to suit the local shooters, the majority of whom 

 were rather chary of putting up the amounts called for by the 

 schedule. In events where the emry fee was reduced, the guaran- 

 .leed purses were cut down proportionately. Fourteen events in 

 all were shot. The scores were fully up to the average in all the 

 classes. Owing to superior shooting on the first day, Bond, Mit- 

 chell and Wagner were promoted to the semi-professional class. 

 In the expert class E. D. Miller captured first average money on 

 85 5 per cent, H. A. Penrose being second with 82, while Neai 

 .Apgar got 81. In the aemi-professhnal class W. R. Fieles won 

 first average on 85.5, E. R. Bond being second on 79.9, Wm. Wag- 

 ner got 75.1 and W. F. Sommerson 71. In the amateur class Dr. 

 E. F. Wavman was first with 88. 2, H. McVicar second with 88 and 

 Wm. Rothwell third with 85.7. Late in the afternoon a boy'e ten 

 target contest was arranged, and some of the youngsters showed 

 that they knew something about the game, as the score shee' 

 shows totals of from three to eight breaks. Shooting was kept up 

 until near five o'clook,after which time the grounds were deserreo. 

 On that evening Messrs. Wagner, Rothwell, Baltzley, Mitcheli 

 and Bond left for their homes. By bed-time the clouds had begun 

 to assume a threatening aspect, aud everybody carried to btd 

 with them the idea that the association was to meet with usual 

 luck and be washed out on the third day.

ON THE THIRD DAY 



as soon as the boys jumped out of bed they made a ru« for the 

 windows and saw the rain descending in torrents with no sign of 

 an abatement. The only thing to do was to await developments 

 and the party amused itself for a few hours in looking about the 

 town and patronizing the stores in the search for novelties. About 

 noon the rain slacked and a portion of the party drove over to 

 the shooting grounds. It had been previously decided, however, 

 that the day's shooting would be declared off. Once on the 

 grounds some of the enthusiasts decided that rain would not de- 

 ter them from having a little sport, so they arranged several im- 

 promptu events and. used up about 500 targets. The first event 

 was a match at 50 singles and 25 pairs between W. F. Summerson, 

 of Staunton, and G. S. McAlpin, of Lynchburg, the scores being as 

 append« d: 



Sommeison 1001111111111111011111111-22

 Then came a 50 bird event with six entries, Sommerson and 

 McAlpin counting their first fifty shots in the above race as their 

 scores, Sommerson breaking 14 and McAlpin 46. The other scores 

 were:

This closed the active work of the week, which was an intensely 

 enjoyable one despite the wet ending. The tournament has un- 

 doubtedly done more than could be done by club shoots in a Tear- 

 in the way of creating an active interest in trap shooting, and the 

 small amount of money lost will not be cried over by the stock- 

 holders of the association. The field is an entirely new one, and 

 I predict that in a year's time it will be a prolific one, and one 

 where thousands of targets will be consumed monthly. Nearly 

 every man and boy in the region owns a gun and while they have 

 heretofore confined themselves to game shooting, they will now 

 that, they have seen a genuine shooting match be eager to perfect 

 themselves in trap work so that when another tournament is held 

 they may be enable to hold up their end with aU comers. The 

 Penrose Gun Club contemplates holding an open to all tourna- 

 ment again jhefore the snow reappears and if they do so they 

 may rest assured of a generous share of patronage from those en- 

 joyed their princely hospitality during the past week. 



During this tournament the Standard Keystone targets and 

 traps were used and both worked perfectly. During the two days 

 programme shooting only 26 targets were broken by traps; of these 

 16 wcie broken on the first day when the trappers were green at,

the business. On the second day a tally was kept of the number 

 of targets broken by each trap; this showing as follows: 

 No. 1. No. 3. No. 3. No. 4. No. 5. No. 6. No. 7. No. 8. No. 9. No. 10.

 Traps numbers 1 and 9 went through the two days without 

 breaking a target. This is a good, showing for the work of the 

 boys as well as for the traps and targets. O. H. Townsend.
