The East End and Cleveland Gun Clubs of Cleveland, Ohio, are about 

 to consolidate. "It i« wliat should have been done some time ago," 

 said a member of the East End club who has always taken the great«st 

 interest in that organization. "'The way the clubs are being operated 

 at the present time obliges us to pay about twice what we should for 

 the kind of service that we get. If a consohdation were effected there 

 •would be no necessity to increase the dues, but at the same iLoie with 

 the increased membership there would be more money to devote to 

 the purpo.se for which the clubs are organized. I think the present 

 method is reaUy a serious handicap to both organizations. If a person 

 desires to take an afternoon to shoot he will find it impossible with the 

 present conveniences to shoot much more than 30 targets and it 

 will take him all the afternoon to do that. It is nonsense to keep a 

 shooter at the traps all the afternoon to have 30 chances to break tar- 

 gets. The club needs new and improved traps and the best way to 

 secure them is by consolidation.'' If the plan goes through there will 

 be live birds kept at the traps in addition to blue rock tai-gets. There 

 wiU also be a place for the members to keep then- dogs, and the pur- 



?08e will be to provide a range that is thorougbJy up witia die times, 

 'he location win be as handy to a street car hne as it is pcssible to 

 secure it and under the new arrangement that will doubtless be pro- 

 vided for adjusting the traps, it will be as easy to shoot at 100 targets 

 as it now is to shoot at 50. 



"West Medford, Mass., April 19. — A meeting of about twenty 

 sportsmen of this vicinity was held on April 17, at which it was voted 

 to reorganize the Wtst Medford Shooting Club, which was originally 

 organized March 20, 1875. The purposes of ttie club are the assist- 

 ance in the protection and preservation of game, and the promotion 

 of all interests pertaining to true sportsmanship. The following 

 gentlemen were elec^ted oiHcers: S. V\". Gilford, president; C. H. 

 Sawyer, vice-president; A. A. WUittemore, treasurer; A. L. Finney, 

 secretary; C. H. Parker, A. A. Wbittemore and I*. W. Gitford, execu- 

 tive committee. The club starts out with a meml)ership of about 

 twenty-five, and will hold friendly shoots, wbich will be made occasions 

 of gfueral enjoyment — not a bustle for dollars— and to this end the 

 following resolution was unanimously adopted: 'No sweepstakes or 

 shooting lor money wid be allowed on the club grounds.' This will 

 eliminate the olijtctiouable feature of professionalism, so disastrous 

 to I he good-feUowship of many clubs. A, li. Finxey, Secretary." 



Rochester, N. Y., April aa.— I have noticed in tbe trap columns of 

 your ijaper, eacli week, tliat it is to oe hoped we will bave a hve-bird 

 contest on eacti day or the tournament, but t am afraja the shooters 

 wdl be disappointed in tuis, as we bave not bad any thought of shoot- 

 ing any pigeons excei:>t in the Dean Kichmoud Trophy race. It is a 

 hard matter to run live bird events and mauimate tai get events on the 

 same shooting ground and at the same time, as one attracts from the 

 other, Uve-bhd conttsts usually getting the best of it. As we intend 

 ottering very lal'ge gu irantee purses we do not wish to have any 

 counter-attraction, oi nave anytumg on the grounds that will in auy 

 way interfere with Lhe target events, although 1 will admit your sug- 

 gestion is a good one if it could be carried out. I know there are a 

 great many old shooters in the State, who stand and look on at the 

 target breaking and say to themselves, ''Oh, if they only had feathers 

 on." 



If we are enabled to secure the pigeons we will possibly offer an at- 

 traction in pigeon events on the last day of the week. The committee 

 on rules, that was appointed at last year's convention, have gotten up 

 a new set of rtdes entu-ely, for live bird shooting, to govern the Dean 

 Hichmond Trophy race and other live bird shooting, but the inanimate 

 target rules are simply the American Association rules, with the ex- 

 ception that 10 andl2-bore guns stand at the 16yds. mark, 12-bore 

 guns being allowed 13402. of shot, and the shooting will be done from 

 known traps at imknown angles, rapid-fire. By changing to this sys- 

 tem it wiU enable us to run off three events a day instead of two, and 

 of course compels us to guarantee money for the extra event. From 

 the present outlook we expect to put up not less than $5,000 in cash 

 and merchandise prizes, and with favorable weather we trust to have 

 a successful shoot. H. M. Stewart, Cor. Sec'y. 



The Forest City Gun Club, of Savannah, Ga , at its annual meeting 

 elected the following officers for the ensuing year: President, B. J. 

 Kieffer: Vice-President, F. G. Jangstetter; Secretar3', C. A. Lamotte; 

 Treasurer, D. Entelman; Ordnance Officer, John Rocker. Executive 

 Committee: John Keiderman, 0. B. Westcott and E. W. O'Connor. 

 Several new members were elected. The reports of the secretary and 

 treasurer showed the club to be in a flourishing condition. Id will 

 begin practice for the season of 1893 Thursday at the club grounds on 

 Estill avenue. A committe w^as appointed to arrange for the tourna- 

 ment during May week. After the meeting President Kielfer enter- 

 tained the members at supper, prepared by Geo. Schwartz. 



Some time ago we were told by Mr. Al, Heritage, of Jerse.y City, 

 that he proposed to hold a 3 days' tournament on tiis grounds during 

 the latter part of May. Mr. Heritage proposed making the pro- 

 gramme comprise two days at targets and one at live birds. He also 

 said that If the May shoot of the New Jersey I'rap-Shooters' League 

 shoidd fall to the lot of the Endeavor Gun Club he would make one of 

 the above target days the "League Day," and suggested as the pirob- 

 able dates. May 30 and 31, and June 1. As the Endeavors have drawn 

 the May shoot we may presume that the above programme will be 

 carried out. 



We ai'e advised by Geo. S, Atwater that the Glen licho Gun Club, of 

 Washington, D. C, will hold a target tournament on Friday and Satur- 

 day, May 19 and 20, the events to be open to all. This club has elegantly 

 appointed grounds in a picturesque location and its members will exert 

 themselves to make the affair a pleasant one. Shooters who propose 

 attending the Knoxville shoot could not do better than to leave home 

 in time to attend the Glen Echo Club's tournament, take in the sights 

 of Washington and vicinity on Sunday, and leave for KnoxvUle on Sun- 

 day night or 3Ionday morning. 



The Rich Hill Gun Club, of Doylestown, Pa., held its regular monthly

Ne'w Jersey State League. 



The third monthly team shoot of the New Jersey Trap-Shooters' 

 League took place on the grounds of the Independent Gun Club at 

 Plainfield. on Thursday, April 20, and a bleak and dismal day it was. 

 Prom early morn until late at night the rain fell in torrents, the wind 

 blew more than half a gale, the air was chUi and piercing, and taken 

 ad in all it was a good day for remaining at home. But Jerseymen, 

 and especially Jersey trap enthusiasts, are not, as a rule, frightened 

 by "a bit of weather," and on this particular day five teams of five 

 men each reported for the State championship race. Each man shot 

 at 25 artificial targets, which same were w holly at the mercy of the 

 breezes, Uitting hither and thither in most erratic fashion and render- 

 ing good scores an impossibility. In tact twenty was high out of the 

 twehty-flve scores shot in tuis race, while in the sweepstakes only one 

 clean score was made, this being a sti'aight ten in event No. 1 by" Fred 

 Quimby. 



Below are the team scores in full, the Endeavors of Jersey City and 

 the Maplewoods of Maplewood tying for first place on 76 breaks each;

Change of Date. 



Pittsburg, Pa. — JSditor Forest and Stream : At a meeting of the 

 tournament committee of the Interstate Manufacturers' and Dealers' 

 Association, held April 19, it was decided to change the dates of the 

 Passaic. N. ,7 , tournament from May 10 and 11 to May 19 and 30. The 

 previous dates s-s'ouUl conflict with the tournament at Saratoga, and 

 we deem that shooting does not gain by a conflict of dates when it can 

 be avoided. 



The new dates I hope will give general satisfaction. 



Let me announce also that the Interstate Manufacturers' and Deal- 

 ers' Association has decided to hold the third tournament of their 

 series at Altoona, Pa., Jime 21 and 22. ^f'uh details wtli be furnished 

 In a few days. Elmeb E. SniuER,

Shooting: at Wapsononock Park. 



The Altoona (Pa.) Rod and Gun Club held the first of its regular 

 series of shoots at Wapsononock Shooting Park on April 19, the 

 weather being damp and chill. There were seventeen shooters on 

 hand, a fine turnout for a club shoot. The events were at ten targets 

 each and the scores were fair despite the fact of the targets being 

 hard breakers. The scores:
