THE WILLIAMSPORT TOURNAMENT. 



Taking the Philadelphia & Reading B. R. from their new depot at 

 Twelfth aud Market streets, Philadelphia, on Monday, May 1, your 

 correspondent had a Taeautiful ride up the SchuylMll Valley to the 

 headwaters of that noble river at Tamaqua, where we were joined by 

 Ml-. Rene Clayton and John Rehrey. If any one wants a ride through 

 the mountains will iust take this road they will see from Port Clinton 

 to Tamaqua a Une that must have taxed severely the braia of the 

 engineer that laid the road out. The distance is just twenty miles 

 and it has 115 curves in that distance. After leaving Tamaqua we 

 begin to climb the hills, among which on every side can be seen the 

 great anthracite coal breakers with their immense piles of culm, 

 which show what large quantities of coal have been taken from the 

 hills, and one would think from the looks of things that the hills must 

 be ail hollow. "Windmg in and out through these coal dumps you 

 strike the Susquehanna River at Sunbm-y and then you are in the 

 wood district. Along the shores of this river you will see immense 

 logs and rafts, and it makes one think to see them that it will only be 

 a short time before om- forests will be all gone and we will have to 

 find something to take the place of lumber. 



At Vv^iUiamsport there is oae boom and the logs in some places are 

 piled up at least twenty feet high. This same boom is seven miles 

 long and makes the river look as if it was all wood instead of water. 



Arriving at WiUiamsport at 10:50 P. M., we took the coach to the 

 Bark Hotel, where we were welcomed by Mr. Chas, Duffey, who since 

 the death of his father. Col. Chas. Dufifey, is manager ot the hotel. 

 Of the shooting fraternity stopping here are E. D. Miller, of Spring- 

 field, N. J.; Wm. H. Wolstencrott and J. Hane, of Philadelphia: J. O. 

 H. Denney, of Pittsburg and Harry Thurman and vnte, of German- 

 town, Pa. A number of other shooters are at the City Hotel, with Mr. 

 Walter Shooter, and they all speak well of the new place. At 9 o'clock 

 we aU started for the Athletic Park, where we found Mr. N. Hughes, 

 the major domo of shooting affairs of this city, with everything ready 

 for the day's sport, but one mistake was made, and that was in trying 

 to run hve bird events and target events at the same time; the two 

 will not go together as was demonstrated to day; for while the live 

 bird shooting was going on the target traps were almost idle. The 

 rain of Monday night had made evSrythmg soft, but Hughes had a 

 couple of loads of sawdust on hand, and with this and a lot of boards 

 the shooters were kept dry shod. 



The regular events were sts in number, two of 10 birds and two of 15 

 birds and two of 20 birds each, the price of the targets deducted from 

 the purses was 3 cts. each, and 3^c. each was given for the best 3 

 averages for the regular events. The averages for to-day were won by 

 Wm. H. Wolstencroft first; E. D. MiUer second; H. Thurman third. 

 Among the shooters here are Gus. GriefE, of New York; Thomas Elj% 

 of Wilkesbarre, Pa., the champion pheasant shooter of the state; 

 M. McMillan, of Mahanoy City; Rene Clayton, of Tamaqua, Pa.; 

 J. O'H. Denny, of Pittsburgh, Pa.; Jolm Dustoa, Harrisburg, Pa,; 

 J. H. Yetter and H. Harman, of Catawissa; E. D. Miller, Springfield, 

 N. J. ; Wm. H. AVolstencroft, and Harry Thurman, of Phila. ; John 

 Raehny, of Weissport, Pa.; Robert Cla>i;on, Luzernborough; H. M. 

 Petteboneand W. S. Petteboue, of Kingston: Ed, Boone, Chas, Lutz, 

 Frank Quick, J. H. Mercer of Bloomsburg; Wm. Edgar, Catawissa; 

 J. P. Torbert, of Jersey Shore; C. B. Titman, Shenandoah; W. G. 

 Clark and G. G. Zeth, of Altoona; and of the club members on the 

 grounds are: N. A. Hughes, A. Smith, W. Ai-mstrong. F. R. Weed, 

 Major Lucas, who is cashier. Geo. Post, assistant, Boyd Rothrock and 

 Walter Shooter. The first event started at 9.30 A. M., and the shooting 

 was kept until 6 o'clock P. M. Although cloudy aU day no rain fell. 

 All lies were divided. 



The second day opened as the first one, cloudy, and about 3 o'clock 

 the rain began to come down too hard for comfort; so, as the pros- 

 pects for the third day were very gloomy, it was agreed among the 

 shooters to postpone that day's shoot until more favorable weather. 

 Among the new shooters to-day are: John Shaaber, J. Smack and 

 H. Melot, of Reading. First average to-day was won by E. D. Miller, 

 second and third by J. Bolu-beck and Gus. GriefiE. Out of the. 6 

 averages for the two days American wood powder won 5, E. C. 

 powder 1.

Pacific Coast Shots. 



San Francisco, May 1.— Editor Forest and Stream: The first tour- 

 nament given by Messrs. C'labrough, Golcher & Co., at the Oakland 

 race track yesterday, was weU attended. Shooting was under A. A. 

 rules, rapid fli-ing system. Both attendance and entry list were muob 

 larger than at any previous shoot ever given here. The shoot com- 

 menced promptly at 10 o'clock and continued until dark. The day was 

 perfect and the scores, although not large, were, in the majority, 

 good, taking into consideration that many of the men faced the traps 

 tor the first time and that the grounds are the most difficult in the 

 State.

Towanda Rod and Gun Club Badge. 



TowANDA, Pa., May 6.— The Towanda Rod and Gun Club have do- 

 nated a handsome silver badge to be contested for by all resident tar- 

 get shooters of Bradford county. The fii'st of the series of matches 

 took place on Friday, May 5, with but four entries. The shooting was 

 from three traps, 10 targets unknown traps, 9 targets known traps 

 and angles, and 3 doubles, under revised American Association rules 

 Scores as foUows: 



Montague 1011101111 llllinoi 11 11 H- 22 



Dittrich 1111011111 010001101 11 01 10—17

Hamaker lllOOllOlO 000011001 10 10 00—11 



The winner, Montague, of the Towanda Gun Olub, shot, for the first 

 time, a new hammerless gun he had just received, manufactured by 

 the WUkesbarre Gun Co., one of their high grades, a beauty in finish 

 and its execution at the traps in the hands of its owner was a'* fine as 

 could have been done on the grounds of the Towanda Gun Club by any 

 shooter, expert or amateur. Ed Kuiskern, representing the WUkes 

 barre Gun Co., considers our grounds the most difficult he ever shot 

 on owing to poor background and the shooters' stand being sUehtlv 

 raised above the traps. M. F Dittkich Sec
