gathering, at which, as already intimated iu this journa], he leads 

 m the thref revolver competitions. In series one. at 20yds., he 

 has put on 3!) poiots out of a poSBible 42 in six shots, HtaTidiiigpoBi- 

 tion. In fhesecond series, at the tareret mnvina: across the line of 

 fire at; the l ate of the "ouicli march," he stands first, with 40 points 

 out of the same possible, and in tlie third series, at a target shown 

 for twelve serondg, he is first with points. In each case the 

 tarRPts are circular, about a foot in diameter. Each event is open 

 to officers and members of the sea and land forces, gentlemen 

 cadets, members of the associatfon. Mr. Winana explained that 

 his lead in the three events placed him first; in the .segregate 

 prizes for the revolver, and added, ''That means the champion- 

 ship." "What is your position in the running deer?" The reply 

 was, "T am now lending double shots, that is, two shots must be 

 fired at a sisgle run of the deer or at two runs in different direc- 

 tions. I am even with Sir E. Loder. brotlier of the Member for 

 Brighton, at single shots." "So, except that, you really lead in 

 everything." "Yes." Mr. Winans went on to say that he h<)d 

 competed at the N.R.A. meetings for 15 ypars. He had won the 

 "deei"oDtwo occasions and had been second every other trial. 

 He was second place in the running man one year. 



"How about the revolver matebes?" "Thopelhave won every 

 vear I have shot in the last five years except last year, when I had 

 been ill with typhoid and. was forbidden to shoot." He uses the 

 Smith & Wesson revolver. Those weapons are the Kussian 

 cavalrv revolvers. His rifles are the Purdy deer-stalkine rifles. 

 Last weeli he made from six to twenty scores higher than any- 

 body else each day, and won each prize about ten times over. 

 "How do vou score this time, compared with j^our figures in other 

 yearf ?" "I am nol: quite so higa tbis time as I was two years 

 aeo in two nf the com petitions, but in series three I have beaten 

 the record." "I hnve read a statement," observed the reporter, 

 "that you spent £40 a day in entrance fees last week." "No," ob- 

 served Mr. SVinans, with a laugh, "I spent £5 a day for t.h« first, 

 fou'-dayg. There was no necessity for it, I was so far ahead." 

 Mr. Winans further explained that in a number of shoots he made 

 with h's rivals, and therefore when, as was the case, he won. on 

 manv occasions, he did not have to pay the entrance fees. That 

 Mr. Winans has had to compete against a number of determined 

 well-ljuovvn revolver shonters is commnn knowledge. Said he in 

 conchision: "Once I bet a man ftve or six times I would beat the 

 record at series three, and I did it." 



RUST PREVENTION. 



I. In the German army oil of gutta percha is used for this pur- 

 pose. It is applied with a flannel rag and will stand for years. 

 TotakeoflE this preservative apply more of the oil, and let it re- 

 main on the article for from twelve to twenty-four hours, when 

 both the old and new application can be wiped off. 



II. A solution of gutta percha in benzine (consistpncy of cream) 

 is a simple preservative against rust on metal. It can be easily 

 applied with a brush and as easily removed by the application of 

 benzinp. 



III. Dissolve 30gr. camphor with a pound of fat, take off the 

 froth and add graptiite, until it has attained the color of iron. 

 Wipe ofif tools, etc., and then apply the mixture and wipe off after 

 twentj-four hours with a soft cloth. This will keep tools or pol- 

 ished iron or steel free from rust for many months. 



IV. To preserve polished iron surfaces from rust, melt together 

 seven parts fat (tallow) and one part resin, stirring the same until 

 it cools. Apply in a half-liquid state; if too thick, thin with ben- 

 zine or petroleum. It preserves the polish and can easily be re- 

 moved. 



V. To make a permanent preservative for Iron or steel, it is 

 best to use nothing but linseed oil. thickened with a pigment re- 

 lated to the metal itself, and native oxide or a roasted oxide of 

 iron i« the best for the purpose. Boiled linseed oil will form a 

 shin, through which no oxidation can take place. 



VI. Slack a piece of fresh lime in a covered vessel witli only 

 water enough to make it crumble. While the lime is yet hot, mix 

 it with enoug'i tallow to make a soft dough and apply this mix- 

 ture to polished surfaces. As it does not dry to any extent or be- 

 come hard, it is easily removed. 



VII. Olmstead varnish or preparation has been in use for many 

 years, and has proved itself perfect, especially for planed and 

 ground surfaces and on Russian iron, which are very sensitive to 

 ru"t. It is made by melting first GOgr. resin and then lib. of fresh 

 tallow or other grease, when both are to be u"- ited. Must be ap- 

 plied wl ile still warm and the surface must be perfectly clean 

 before application. This also can be removed without much 

 trouble. 



POWDER SUBSTITUTE.-The flr.st trials of tlie new German 

 substitute tor gunpowder ever made in tliis country took place at 

 Sandy Honk July ^5. The Amerifan ordnance oflicers have been 

 follnwing accurately all the experiments made with this article 

 in Europe, and which were generally attended with success, and 

 some time ago the oflicers stationed at Sandy Hook obtained a 

 quant ity of it, and the first official trial occurred as above. The 

 article bears marked resemblance to lubbor both in appearance 

 and tiie effect upon bping cut. and comes in minute cubes %{u. on 

 the edge. It may be pared into thin slices, which, when held in a 

 position allowing the light t" shine through them, have a sort of 

 rosin-like cast. This article has many advantages over the 

 brown priamaiio i)owder, lately so popular in firing our big guus, 

 one of the chief being that it mav l)e tnmbled into the bag used in 

 loading in the most utter confusion and will have the same effect, 

 while the other has to be packed np in a .^ort of cylinder and 

 loaded in a more systematic manner. The most interesting feat- 

 ure is its great power, which will be seen in the following descrip- 

 tioti of the shots fired. The tests were made by use of the Sin. 

 steel breech-loading rifle and the regulation SOOlbs. projectile. In 

 the first round 301bs. of the explosive were used, and a veloci*^ v of 

 l,490£t. per second was attained at a pressnre less than 19,000lbs. 

 to the square inch. In the second round 451b''. were used, and 

 here the velocity was 1,990ft. per second at a pressure of SO.OOOlbs. 

 to the inch, and in the third and last 501bs. of this powerful ex- 

 plosive were loaded into tlie gun and at the word it was fired. 

 The velocity was 8,163ft. and pressure 38,000lbs. at the same con- 

 ditions as the previnua trials. The energy of this last shot at the 

 muzzle of the gun was 9.720 foot tons. Another noticeable advan- 

 tage in these pxperiments was the absence of all gases, which 

 tend to choke up and swell the breech mechanism of great guns. 

 As stated, the pressure of 38,0tX)lb8. to the square inch has been 

 withstood by the gun, and it is stated that there is no reason whv 

 f maximum charge of 450 bs. of the explosive might not be safely 

 fired. 



CREEDMOOR— At the meeting of the board of directors of 

 the National Rifle Association of America, a resolution was 

 adopted allowing the use of the Martini-Henry rifle by the mem- 

 bers of the Canadian or English rifle organizations which might 

 participate in any of Assooiatinn's matches. Another imporl;ant 

 motion adopted was that wherever the prone position is called 

 for by the regulations to allow one-armed competitors to shoot in 

 a sitting position in any match of the Association. Ma,ior David 

 Crocker, Inspector of Rifle Practice, First Brigade staff, was 

 elected executive oflicer of the fall meeting. 



TESTING FIREARMS.— There are in Europe five "proving 

 houses" or testing places for firearms. Of the Birmingham and 

 London proof-houses many people have heard; the others are at 

 St. Etienne. in the south of France; at Fellah, in Austria, and at 

 L'eee, in Belgium. The latter, however, is by far the largest 

 establishment of its kind. It is oflioiallv stated that the Liege 

 proof-house now consumes between 3,000,000 and 4,000,000 of car- 

 tridges and over 40 tons of gunpowder a year. 



STEET; JACKET.— A new steel cuirass, covering the breast 

 only, will soon be introduced in tVie Austrian army. It is said to 

 be impenetrable to the bullets of any rifle yet invented, and 

 capable of being folded up and packed in an ordinary knapsack. 



NEWARK, N. J.— At the monthly meeting of the directors of 

 the Newark Shooting Society on Wednesday evening, Aug. 7, it 

 was d< cided to hnld the annual king shoot on Monday, Sept. 7, at 

 the shooting park. 



HARRISBURG, Pa., is to have a great time at tbe traps Aug. 

 21-23, as pel' our fixtures. 



COVENTRY. Conn.— The American Metallic Cartridge Co, has 

 been formed here with a capital of $15,000. 



OMAHA.— The committee appointed by the Omaha Gun Ulub 

 to look up a site for new grounds consists of Frank S. Parnaalee, 

 Geo. Loomis, Fred Fuller, VV. E. Nason and Goodley Brucker, and 

 they have unanimously settled on a tract of land iu the neighbor- 

 hood of Courtlandt Beach, which will be accessible by motor on 

 completion of the - xtensions under way. It is the intention of 

 the club to purchase from sis to eigit acres, inclose the same with 

 a good, substantial high board fence, erect a complete club house, 

 and fix up the finest shooting piirk in the West. If the site 

 select' d by the C'tmrnittee meets with the club's approval, the 

 purchase will be made, and work begun on the same immediately, 

 and pushed forward with all possible speed, in order that the 

 park may he dedicated in October with a big three dave' trap- 

 shooting tournament,;

A TRAP-SHOOT IN ALASKA, 



Au;tAk Bat, Alaska, June 30.— The first trap-shooting that 

 ever <ook place in Alaska was held at this place on the 23d, 24th 

 and 25th inst. The targets used were bluerocks, 3 traps, oyds. 

 apart. American Shooting Association rules governed all 

 matches. The participants in this tournament were the seal 

 hunters off of about twenty-five vessels which were lying in the 

 harbor. The affair was under the management of J. S. Fanning 

 and Capt. E. P. Miner, of the seal schooner Henry Dennis. The 

 former is well known in Sau Francisco as a promoter of trap 

 events in that city. The main and most exciting event was a 50- 

 bird mate ti, $35 a side, between Capt. Cox, of the schooner Tri- 

 umph, and Capt. Dodd, of the Maggie Mac, wbich took place on 

 the third day. Owing to want of practice and a strong breeze 

 which blew across the traps, the shooting was not very brilliant. 

 The following are the scores:

CLEAR LAKE, IOWA. 



Recohd of the shooting tournament held at Clear Lake, Iowa, 

 on Wednesday and Thursday, July 29 and 30, under the manage- 

 ment of C. M. Grimm, of Clear Lake, and S. .S. Sessions, of 

 Algona. The grounds were beautifully located on the hank of the 

 lake, near the Park Hotel. Quite a uunaher of shooters were 

 present, among them being C. W. Budd, of Des Moines, and John 

 C. Smith, of Algona. There were some very hot contests, parti- 

 cularly that for the first average, which was finally won by Mr. 

 Grimm by the breaking and killing of 204 targets and live birds 

 during the two days out of a possible 219, Mr. Budd following 

 with 203, taking second averase; A. Sundstmm, of Bancroft, 

 third; Georgson, of Kelley, fourth; and Gilbert, of Spirit Lake, 

 fifth. Mr. Smith was called home at the end of the first day, else 

 the averages might have been different, as at the close of the 

 first day's shoot Grimm, Budd and Smith were all ia a heap, so 

 far as shooting was concerupd, all three making the remarkable 

 score of 67 shots each without a miss. FoDowing are the scores,

TRAP AT HOLLYWOOD. 



Fhxday last was a great day at Hollywood, two matches were 

 on the programme, and a large gathering of invited gupsts wit- 

 nessed two interesting contests. The first match was '>ptween 

 Captain A. C. Money and Fred Hoey, the conditions 100 birds 

 each, for $100 a side. Mr. Hoey did not show up in as fine form as 

 on the Monday previous, and, as he saw no chance to win. he with- 

 drew after the 38th round, allowing Captain Money to take the 

 stakes. The real contest of the day was the match betwr en Edgar 

 Murphy and Phil Daly, Jr., at 100 birds per man, SI, 000 a side. 

 Mr. Daly using a 10-gauge L. C. Smith, at 80yds. rise; Mr. Murphy 

 shot a 13-gauge Stephens-Grant, standing at the same mark. The 

 birds were a magnificent lot, and they taxed the skill of the con- 

 testants to the utmost. Daly was suffering with a sore arm, and 

 before 10 birds had been fired at the old wound had broken open 

 and the blood stained his shooting Jersey. At each recoil he 

 showed signs of pain, and at the 60th round was forced to with- 

 draw. The score was as follows, Mr. John S. Hoey ofHciating as 

 referee in bis usual capable style:
