The general hiistlers and workers wSre the Pres. Elobert M. 

 Hartley, Capt: A. B. Br'prgs, G-. V. Hartley, and Messl'd. Pierce, 

 Trull, and others. Therte was some "kicking" by a few abour, tlif

 the liiembeis riid the best they could, and that is about all anyone 

 cab do Ikir-kers and all). 



The traps threw the birds hardj with a stiff wind frortl the 

 west and traps facing east it helped to make the shootiag ex- 

 tremelv difficult. The wind would catch the targets and they 

 wouW fly up a couple of feet in nearly every case. Oonsiderinc 

 the wind t'le scores made were far above the average. The lol-

Chicago Traps. 



Chicago, 111., Oct. 28.— There seems to be an impression current 

 in the East, though from what cause I cannot learn, ihat there is 

 to be beld in Chicago next spring a grand trap tournament under 

 the immediate charge of the World's Pair, the tournament, in- 

 deed, to be a part of the Fair and one of its attractions. I cannot 

 imagin« how such a belief can have gained ground, and should 

 not have known of its existence except for a visit from BIr. R. E. 

 Cos, of New York, who is now in this region seeking a possible 

 location for his old business of htiying and handling oigeons for 

 the trap, wherein he is well known in the East. Mr. Cnx says 

 that Mr. Neaf Apgar advised him that the World's Pair wonld be 

 running a tournament all next stimmer. and both thought that 

 this would offer a chance for business. 



There was some talk loFg ago about a. tournament under the 

 auspices of the World's Fair, but nothing came of it, and no steps 

 were taken toward what for many reasons wonld be an im.practi('- 

 able project, for want of room if for nothing else. It is piobable. 

 therefore, that the unfortunate trap shooters of this and othT 

 countries will not have the pleasure of shooting for the Nation's 

 money, .at the Nation's pigeons, or targets. The June tournament 

 of the" Illinois State Sp^rt8men'8 Association has, however, always 

 been referred to as the "World's Fair tournament," and president 

 Organ at one time contemplated strengthening th.e band of that 

 association by getting some of its members deputized as officers 

 01 ibe Fair. This, bo wever, would alter the real nature oC the 

 shoot, or strengthen its resources. 



The truth is, that World's Fair tournament is as yet all in the 

 air. It is easy to see that it will be a big affair, but how to make 

 it biggest and best is still a study. President Organ has called a 

 meeting of the executive committee of the Association for next 

 Monday evening, and at that time there will be every effort made 

 to formulate a plan for a work that certainly should be begun 

 before long and prosecuted earnestly. 



It was once suggested that a call be issued to the trap clubs of 

 the country, asking for a contribution of $1 per capita, to go 

 toward a world's open purse. The plan has good and bad features. 

 If successful, it would still leave open the grave question. Who is 

 going to run this World's Fair tournament of the Illinois Associ- 

 ation next June? 



That there will be a big shoot goes without saying. It will take 

 a week, perhaps two weeks, to run off the Stale shoot for the 

 championship badge alone, certainly two weeks to decide that and 

 the club team chami)ionship also. With the number of shooters 

 who will be present, it is safe to say that an open tournament of 

 30 or 60 days would not find the end of the shooters and the scoot- 

 ing enthusiasm. This tournament would follow right on after the 

 State shoot, at Watson's Park. Burnside. and it would make big 

 money for its management. But who is to be that managementV 

 tlan it be the officers of the Illinois State Sportsmen's Associ- 

 ation':' Can they, or any of them, give no 30 or 90 days oE tiuie to 

 the tournament? If they cannot, which of the Association's 

 members can't" It would make the Association rich, but how can 

 tlie Association alf ord to pay the price for such riches? 



A COMfANY SUGGESTED. 



It has been suggested, and I do not off-band think of any better 

 puggestion. that a stock company should be formed to run this 

 World's Fair open tournament. to put up purses, employ assistants, 

 and in short, to run this shoot and take its profits. This company 

 by its officers would represent a compact and movable force of 

 ready, practical efiiciencv. It could be made up of men whose 

 names would guarantee fairness and honesty. Ii could go to ttie 

 leading manufacturing coacerns interested in sports, and asU for 

 large cash donations, with every prospect of sncfss in obtaining 

 them. With what the company could offer in cash and what a 

 good heavy sweepsstakes entry would add, it seems easy to believe 

 that very large purses would be in comi:)etition, doubiless lartjer 

 than any ever gnen before in this country. Thus. Mr. Organ's 

 suggestion of a S35 mias-and-out shoot (even a 10 birds sweep 

 might take weeks to shoot to a flnisn) might mean to the winner 

 a neat fortune of itself should the suggestion be taken up. 



There is no need for any company, if the State Association can 

 swing the open eboot. If it ca,im9tf§omp moix idgft must prQbably 



be entertained. The company idea would have the desirable 

 qualities of oflering a management compact and direct in act'on, 

 and moreover accessible and respDnsihle. There might be worse 

 ideas, but this is only one suggestion, and lias never been taken 

 up. The definite plan of action is not yet determined upon, but 

 when announced it will, we all hopo, be fontid worthy of Chicago 

 a.nd of the World's Fair. This A.ssociation has a heavy contract 

 to fulfill, but it is not in the habit of failing. The Imrden of this 

 world's tournament rests not on the ofllcers of the Fair, but upon 

 the Illinois Association. The rights and privileges of this tourns- 

 ment belong to the Illinois Association. Whether it can avail 

 itself fully of these, or whether it will find it necessary to dele- 

 gate some of the privileges with some of the cares are questions 

 now urgent, and we hope soon to be answered. 



THE CALUMET HETGUTS Clitrit 



held a most enjoyable shoot Oct. 10 on its grounds on the lakp 

 shore, at Calumet Heights. A large number of members and in- 

 vited guests were presenf . The cotnpetition was keen and inter- 

 esting. Delightful weather iiivorofl the event. The club bot-i.?e is 

 aittiated on the shorn of Like Jliuhigan, about 35 miles fi'om Clii- 

 cago, in the midst of a wilderness. 

 The first shoot was a practice shoot.

Messrs. Heikes, Bingbim and Booth were handicapped by being 

 retiuired to hold the gun over the left shoulder before calling 

 "pull." The club offered prizes in aU shoots. To make it mot t 

 interesting, the .shooters made small sweepstakes of some of t]:ie 

 events.

The Tournament at Newburgh. 



The West Newhurgb Gnu and Rifle Club, which held its initial 

 tournameot on Oct. 27 and 28, is a. new organization, having been 

 formed last spring. It is comprised of some very enthusiastic 

 sportsmen and officered as follows: Pres...!. .J. E. Harrison; Vice- 

 Pres., D. Brown; Sec'y, Geo. G. ChandlT; Treas., J. A. Wood. 

 The grounds of tbe club are situated about SOOvds. from the old- 

 fashioned and homelike hostlery known as Gedney's Hotel, and 

 a'-e reached from the Erie depot by a two-mile drive over a well 

 made but terribly dusty macadamized road, the road leading by 

 many stylish suburban residences and comfortable looking farms. 

 The trap-shooting is done on a high piece of ground, which affords 

 some fine views of the surrounding country. The club has a neat 

 club house and shoots from a set of five traps set behind an earth 

 screen. 



The weather on both days was favorable for outdoor sport. The 

 management of the shoot was attended to by J. J. E. Harrison, H. 

 C. Higginson, George Taggert, David Brown and W. P. Rayland, 

 who did all in their power to make tfie affair a succese. Mr. 

 Brown attended to the work of receiving entries, dividirg and 

 paying out moneys, while Mr. Taggert did the scoiing. The a.t- 

 fendance was not as heavy as was anticioated, but st'lL there 

 were enough on hand to give zest to the contests. The scores ran 

 low, only two straights being made during the two days. The 

 targ'^ ts and traps worked well and the foregrotind was clear, so 

 that the poor averages were unaccountable. Targets were de- 

 ducted from the purses at the unif-irm rate of 3 cents each.

 rhougb the birds werp only fa'r flyers no one succeeded in killing ■ 

 more than seven. "Wanda's" sixth bird escapsd both barrels and 

 settled on a tree, from which a few moments later he was knocked 

 by a stone thrown by a boy. The scores of the day's shooting are

Annie Oaklej's Return. 



Last Saturday evening we received the following: 



"Continental Hotel, Newark, N. J., Oct. 27.— Will you kindly 

 call and take dinner with us about 5:30 or 6 o'clock to-morrow 

 (Friday) evening. We shall be very glad to see you. as we have, 

 just returned from Europe. Truly yours, Frank Butler. 



Annie Oaklet.'' 



Here was a nice p'ckle of fish. An invitation to take dinner on 

 Friday and on said Friday we were at the Newburgh tournament 

 wtiile said letter was traveling about to find us. And worse still, 

 to lose the coveted opportunity of being one oF the first to wel- 

 come "Little Sure Shot" to her native heath, to which she had 

 been a stranger for four long years. 



But what can't be cured must be endured, so all we could do 

 was to repair to the Continental and make amends for tardiness. 

 Arriving at the hotel we were given the warmest kind bf a greet- 

 ing by the returned travelers, both of whom looked in splendid 

 health, despite the arduous duties imposed upon them in the 

 elt'ven different countries visited with t^e Wild West show. 



Miss Oakley looked the picture of henlth, and, in fact, she said 

 she nevar felt better than at preeent. She baa the same pleasant 

 smile and clear biOk as of old, and s^ows little or no trace of her 

 barri work. During the- past four years she has never failed to 

 give her two performances daily when the show was in season, 

 besides tloing more or less practice work, match shooting and 

 hunting. This record clearly proves that "Little Sure Shot" pos- 

 sesses an iron constitution. 



AU of her shooting paraphernalia was brought out for our in- 

 sp-ction, and the collection is a fine one. Inelud^'d in the lot is a 

 Francotte bearing the name of Von Lpngerke & Detmold, New 

 Vork. this gun— a 13-bore— having been built on precisely similar 

 lines to a high-grade Purdy. The "service gun" of Miss Oakley, 

 with which her exhibition shooting has been done for over five 

 years, ig etiJl'la srime coudition, although the stock, with ianxi-
