Chicago Traps. 



Chicago, m., Nov- 19.— About all Chicago will be at Milwaukee 

 next week at the big Thanksgiving week tournament. This 

 promises to be the best of the current events in this section and 

 there will be a crowd at Dickie Merrill's town. 



Calumet Heights Club has out its annual circular annotmoing 

 preparations for the customary Thanksgiving jubilee, with trap 

 and rifle matches, ttirkey matches, etc. 



Anent the recent talk made by Jack Winston about coming up 

 to Chicago and leaving a trail of mangled bodies behind him. Mr, 

 E,olla Helkes issues the following challenge, signed and left at 

 the common shooting headquarters, Billy Mussey's, vesterday: 



"Will shoot Winston .500 blnerock targets for §250 a side; 100 

 rapid-firing system, 100 three unknown traps, 100 Ave unknown 

 trans, 100 rapid-firing, known traos, unknown angles, .50 pilr 

 doubles. Or will shoot 100 bluerocks, $100, 5 unknown traps and 

 unknown angles. Bluerook expert traps a.nd electric pulls to be 

 used in both the above races. R. O, Heikks." 



George Kleinman, who now seems shooting in much of his old 

 form, has ttiis to say to Mr. Winston : "Tell him I will shoot him 

 alOO-bird match. $300 a side, every day from Thanksgiving till 

 Christmas." We may see a match out of thiM yet. 



It is commonly understood that Mr. Fulford will not shoot a 

 match with Mr. Winston, for fearof getting h'sfeelings wounded. 

 It is also currently believed that Mr. Fulford couldn't shoot 

 Straight enough to even wound anybody's feelings. 



Cap Anson is here with the diamond for the year, but he 

 will wear diamonds if he keeps on shooting the way he is now. 

 He incidentally got all but one out of 30 yesterday, and when la-^t 

 seen was still getting them on that same string. 



Yesterday, as the scores from Watson's Park will show, Mr. L. 

 M. Hamline defeated Mr. W. P. Mussey in a 50-bird match, Mr. 

 Miassey to add 3 birds to Mr. Hamline's score. Tb" men broke 

 even, and the handicap gave Mr. Hamline the race. The two will 

 probably shoot the same race again. Mr. Mussey is also billed to 

 shoot Mr. A. J. Atwater a lOO-bird match soon. He ran his last 34 

 straight in the Hamline match, but the latter gentleman was 

 pounding them down at all sorts of range and speed. 



Dr. G. A. Scroggs, president of the Bone Hollow Club, of 

 Beaver, Pa., spent a short time in the city this week, though I re- 

 gretted I did not meet him. At Watson's Park Dr. Scroggs was 

 Introduced to Billy Mussey. 



"Are you the man that owns that safe?" asked Dr. Scroggs, 



"Same man," said Billy. "And permit me to introduce Mr. 

 George Kleinman " 



"Oh, how do you do, Mr. Kleinman," said Dr. Scroggs. "Yea, 

 I would nave known you from your picture." 



George had on his overshoes. 



Mr. J. J. Kleinman, brother of George, and once as well known 

 in the trap shooting world, is disappointed about the election, 

 and has a novel explanation of the result, which shows his deep- 

 seated suspicion of the human race. 



"I'll bet the election was thrown; that's what I'll bet," said he. 

 "They fix horse races and trap shoots, and I'll bet a hundred dol- 

 lars this here election was fixed. I'll bet Harrison got a million 

 dollars for throwin' the race. They could aff ord to give him that 

 and I bet he did it." 



Mr. A. D. Cairnoross. the well-known trap shot, late of Amboy, 

 is now in business permanently in Chicago. Another strong 

 shooter added to a lot of strong ones. E. Hotiqh.

Shooting at Dexter Park. 



The fifth and final shoot in the Dexter Park Trap League series 

 was held at Dexter Park, on Tuesday, i><ov. 15. Only four teams 

 competed for the two trophies given by Louis Miller the proprie- 

 tor of the grounds. The Unknowns were the winners of the first 

 prize with the best aggregate score of 417; Parkways second with 

 407; Glenmores^third with 404 and the Emeralds fourth with 400. 

 Tuesday's shoot was much delayed and was shot oti in a driving 

 rain storm. Bach team had out its full number and no subs 

 were required. The shooting, all though the series has been of a 

 fair average, especiallv wi'.h the three leading teams. The scores:

The Smith— Willey Match. 



SmnsHAJL, weeks ago it was announced in this paper that a 

 match had been made between Allen WilJey. editor of the Hart- 

 ford Olobe, and H,.rry B. Smith, of Newark, N. J., but no date was 

 given. Mr. Willey was "up to his eyes" in business, and neither 

 man was particular about having the match take place until they 

 could be assured of good, hard birds. So the atfatr hung fire 

 until it had been forgotten by many. Not so with the principals, 

 however, who were simply awaiting their own good time. This 

 time came on Nov. 16. when a telegram announced to Air, giftlth 

 that Mr WilJey was co,jiing to town arid would he readv to shoot. 

 The early part of the day was marked by a heavy rain, bafc along 



fairly clear with just breeze enough from the northwest to make 

 th« birds feel lively. 



Tbe match took place on John Erb's "Old Stone House" grounds 

 wh^re the principals and a few friends arrived shortly before 3 

 o'clock. Ttie conditions of the match called for 50 live birds per 

 man, 20yd8. rise. modiQed Hurlingham rules to govern, for astake 

 of 8100 a side, loser to pay for the birds. It was precisely 3:15 

 when the first shot was fired, O. M. Hedden officiating as referee. 

 John Erb's famous black Lem did the retrieving. 



Willey went first to the score, grassing a good right.-quarterer. 

 Smith following suit on a right-quartering driver. Willey's 4th 

 was a strong and fast incomer that got lead enough to stop half a 

 dozen birds but he managed to carry it a couple of yards beyond 

 the boundary, where he gave up the gnost. This bird did not at 

 any lime rise over a yard above the ground, and everybody 

 thoueht I^em would catch him, which he tried bard to do as soon 

 as the second barrel was fired. For once, however, the grand old 

 dog found a bird too smart for him, as with a quick twipt it 

 eluded his jaws and then went over the line, falling dead. Willey 

 also lost his 6th, a left-quartering incomer by a slow S'-cond. His 

 13th and 16th were both fast birds, as was his 20th, the latter being 

 very kard-hit with both barrels. All three were lost. 



Smith's eighth was a very fast left-quartering incomer which 

 caught both loads and carried them a vard over the bouadary, 

 where he ceased to live. His 10th and 16th were both hit liard 

 but got away, as did his 24tb, a very fast bird. 



Willey's slow second lost him his 36th bird, a fast one. His 

 44th was hit hard, but managed to get over and fall Into a charge 

 from the gun of a "bushwhacker." 



Smith's 49th was also hard hit, but this also went to the "bush- 

 Whsckers." 



As a whole the birds were as good a lot of flyers and lead car- 

 riers as have been trapped in this vicinity for a long time, not 

 one of the hundred refusing flight when the trap was pulled, and 

 every one starting off at a clipping pace. Some of them were 

 equal to any we ever saw for speed and puzzling flight. 



WiUey 's best ones were his 9t,h, 11th. 14tb, 18th. 19th. aist (dodged 

 the first and caught the second at full eOvds.l, 37 Dh, 2S)th (another 

 long second). 34th (very fast), 3.5th and 49th. 



Smith's star birds were his 3d (killed with second at 70yda.) 11th 

 (hit hard with a quick double, carried both doses to fenf^es, against 

 which it si-ruck and fell stone dead)* 13th (very fast). 17th (i hum- 

 mer and a long kill), 36th (long second on a fast bird) and 43d, (an 

 awfully wicked zigzagger and fast). Time of finish 4:15 P. M. 



Smith pulled out a winner by a total of 45 kills to Willey's 43, 

 the score as shown by Forest and Stream's graphic score type 

 being appended. The first line of figures show the trap from 

 which the bird was sprung:

"Big Tournament in Nebraska. 



Stanton. Neb., Nov. 16.— The first annual tournament of the 

 Stamon QuQ Club, held in this city, Nov. 15 and 16. under the 

 management of Ted Ackerman, was fairly well attended. There 

 were eight target and two live bird events the first day with $100 

 addpd money, and eight target and two live bird events on the 

 second day with $125 added money. The entrances in torget 

 events ran from gl 60 to $4 and in live bird events $10 to ^15. A 

 very liberal programme and the attendance should have been 

 double what it was. Ted Ackerman laid himself out to give the 

 boys a good time and every one went home well pleased. 



The shooting at targets was done from five bluorock traps. The 

 birds were thrown very hard and low, making the shooting very 

 dififlcult. The live birds were shot from five ground traps, made 

 by J. A. R. Elliott, of Kansas City, Mo., and with Mr. Elliott to 

 manipulate them they worked like a charm. The weather was 

 clear and pleasant with quite a strong wind each day. 



The shooters in attendance were Fox Stauffer, Grand Island, 

 Neb.; Read. Parmalee and Smith, Omaha; Baldwin Bros., Creigh- 

 ton. Neb.: Connelly and Nethewav, Norfolk: Speice and Schroe- 

 der, Columbus; J. A. R. Elliott. Kansas City, Mo.; Ackerman, 

 Hinkle, Brown. Yorke Bros., Maihes, Luck and Good, Stanton, 

 and Budd, of Des Moines, la. 



Tbe Trotter Bros, of Kingsley, and Abbott and Arff, of Charter 

 Oak, la., were kept; at home by sickness, but in letters to Mr. 

 Ackerman wished those in attendance a good time. B.ead, Par- 

 malee, Ackerman and Budd will attend the Milwaukee, Wis., 

 shoot next week and are guessing how long it will take to walk 

 home: The score:
