[May 12, 189$, 



The Tomato Can Shooting Club.— II. 



March 2.— Dr. Tooloy told me that the report which I wrote 

 about the beginning of the club and the pigeon shooting was not 

 quite in form like the reports of other clubs, but as he had en- 

 joyed reading it he thought it would be printed, and that I should 

 write up to date. The boys fe t pretty sore about pigeon shooting, 

 aud as the club wasn't made up we had made up our minds to 

 let shooting go. But one day Dr. Tooley told us that we could 

 get. along better with artificial targets by standing close to trap, 

 that the targets would go straight away, only rising and falling. 

 But the boys said that they wouldn't put mon^y in it, that it 

 would just fizzle as pigeon shooting had done. Then one day the 

 Doctor met ub and said that we could make a trap that would 

 cost nothing but work, a trap with a hickory spring, that would 

 throw potatoes, apples, etc.: apples were plentiful last fall. Then 

 he showed us a drawing and explained it. Lef Haughawught 

 was present, he is a carpenter, don't shoot any, but said that he 

 would make it if material was found; 6ft. of l6xl)4in. plank, (3ft. 

 of 2xlin. dry hickory, a piece of board and some old lightning 

 rod iron. 



So we got things together, and the trap was made. All of us 

 were anxious to see trap work and ready to try it next day. Pete 

 Oberholtzer bought a basket of big Falawalder apples, and one 

 was placed on the bent spring, and all of us tried it, but the apples 

 got to the ground before anybody could shoot. Some one said 

 that by adding the long piece of an elliptic wagon spring the trap 

 would make a longer throw. The man that brought the spring 

 from blacksmith shop also brought some spiral springs of an old 

 sofa. About the time we had them fixed, the Doctar.came with 

 two elastic straps, which acted after the other springs had ex- 

 hausted their power. When all was done the Doctor said that it 

 waB an unpatented combined complication of various forces, 

 which needed only the addition of electricity and a big dam-site 

 to be perfectly unique. Thought a drawing should be Bent for il- 

 lustration. Bill Auker picked up a tomato can from a heap of old 

 rusty ones lying near, and, after getting the spring triggered, he 

 put the can on the pieces of curved strap-iron which held the 

 targets. I forgot n sav that the plank was canted upon a saw- 

 horse at an angle of 45 degrees, end braced against a log and some 

 big timbers to brace the horse. 



Then Bill stood ready to shoot, about fifteen steps, a little to 

 one side and said pull! There was a rope to the trigger. Bill got 

 his gun off and the can took a second flight, giving out a 

 metallic ring. Everybody knew that Bill had hit and Bill was the 

 proudest champion shot. Doctor said, that he ever knew. That 

 can was a curiosity: every one examined it and carefully counted 

 the five No. 4 shot holes and dinges. Doctor said we must get No. 

 7 or 8 shot, but No. 4 is the smallest size kept in our stores or used 

 by us. We had much shooting before all the cans were hit. Sev- 

 eral of us had hit a can, and the Doctor said that is a revelation; 

 lots of 1un for the boys. Mr. Fox was going to Sudbury next day, 

 and said that he would bring a big lot of cans from the big hotels, 

 who would be glad to have them hauled away. So the next Sat- 

 urday the crowd was big, some to see the trap, some to seethe 

 shooting at flying targets, and all to have a gnod time. Mr. Fox 

 had filled a spring wagon bed with cans— tomato, peach, corn, 

 peas, bean, salmon, lobs'er, etc. Nearly all had pictures on. 



It was the difference in size which brought on the first kicK; the 

 Doctor said that was the word used for trouble at shoots. Jake 

 Wurst is always obliging, and he volunteered to set and load the 

 trap. But every time it was Bill Auker's time to shcot there was 

 a little can on the spring and Bill missed. Doctor said Bill wasn't 

 in good shooting fr-rm. Bill got so mad and rattled that he 

 couldn't hit the big peach cans which Jake gave him afterwards, 

 so we had to make Rule 1st. Doctor said it was the beginning of a 

 promising organization. Rule 1st, every shooter to have the same 

 number of same size cans. Then Doctor said we could classify 

 each shoot as a lobster, core , peach, etc., shoot. These hotel cans 

 were better than the home put up cans, as all had their tops 

 partly to them, and tne openings could be nearly closed, so would 

 fly better. We .inst had lots of fun, every one hit some, and the 

 missers didn't care for the teasing. We, and everybody, said it 

 was jolly, and Mr. Fox too; he said that he would furnish all the 

 cans we wanted. 



The next Saturday the Doctor brought his gun with him and a 

 square box. He said that the club was now big enough and so 

 eager to shoot that he thought we could raise money enough for a 

 set of traps and targets. That to start with, he would shoot 

 against the whole crowd for $10. That if he won he would do- 

 nate the whole $30 to the club. If he lost only the $10 was to go to 

 the club. Terms to be, that the Doctor was to put more holes in 

 five cans than were in all the five cans of all the other shooter?; he 

 to shoot last. As the shooting went on the. boys seemed to have 

 improved, and more than usual holps were in the cans. The boys 

 had a good deal of fun with the Doctor's prospects, not lessened 

 any when the Doctor took a little short gun out of a canvas bag. 

 It had no hammers and only weighed Tibs. It had no ramrod. 

 After the Doctor had put it together, he opened his box and took 

 out shells, he called them. The gun opened on a hinge and the 

 load was pit in behind. Then the Doctor was ready to shoot, and 

 said t- Pull !" We all thought that a cap had snapped, as there 

 was so little sound or smoke; but the tin can, just at the highest 

 point, made a big jump and the strike of shot was loud. 



When the can was brought in, retrieved, Doctor said, it was too 

 full of holes to be c mated. When the Doctor's five cans were 

 laid together there was no counting. The boys had learned that 

 they could learn to shoot at flying targets. They didn't feel 

 mean or poor. The Doctor told us all about trap shooting, smoke- 

 less, soundless powder and chokebore guns, that many American 

 guns, hammer and hammerless, were made by different makers 

 at low prices, that were entirely safe and reliable shooters with 

 any decent charge, and that light here and now, he moved and 

 resolved that this club shall be called the Tomatoe Can Shooting 

 Club; adopted unanimously. Tbe Doctor moved and resolved 

 that the club adjourn to meet next Saturday for the purpose of 

 more fully organizing, electing officers and appointing commit- 

 tees, etc. Adopted unanimously. Yonet Winkleblech, Sec'y.
