Two Amateur Records Established. 



The New York Sun says of the great amateur team match which 

 took place at Babylon, L. I., on March 29: 



The return match at 100 live birds each between Fred Hoey, of 

 Hollywood, and L S. Thompson of Brookdale on one side, and George 

 Work of New York, and Charles Macalester of Philadelphia on the 

 other, decided at the grounds of the Westminster Kennel Club, Baby- 

 lon, yesterday afternoon, was sensational, the former team repeating 

 their triumph at Bergen Puint, and winning by a scor« of 190 to 187. 

 The vanquished men shot a strong race, strong enough in fact, to win 

 nineteen out of twenty matches; Macalester killing 94 and Work 93 

 out of the 100, but Hoey was in phenomenal form, 97 tirds going down 

 before the raking Are of his Purdy. Thompson's run of 91 birds at 

 the Carteret grounds, when the boundary was 21yds. and the wind 

 blowing a gale, had eaused many to believe that he would be high 

 man yesterday, but his companion was simply invincible, and he had 

 to be content with tieing George Work's score of 93. Hoey not only 

 broke the amateur record for kills in 100 birds shot at. but ran 57 

 straight. Macalester's high run was 41, Work's 34, and Thompson's 



A distinguishing feature of these matches is the good fellowship 

 that always prevails. There is a lack of feeling that is most com- 

 mendable. It would be a good idea to arrange a match between 

 Messrs. Work and Thompson. They tied at the Certaret grounds, 

 with 91 out of 100, and were again tied yesterday with 92 kills. 



The match was over at 4:45, and everybody was at dinner in town 

 by 6:30. 



It is altogether likely that a strong team of Americans will shoot at 

 the great English meeting in June. The four men taking part in 

 yesterday's match with L. S Davenport, Edgar Murphy, D. S. Thomas 

 and others, could hold their own anywhere. The scores:

Rust and Thomas Tie Again. 



Philadeiphia, March 29.— This was the day set by A. J. Rust, of 

 Philadelphia, and Wilmer A. Thomas, of Ambler, to shoot off a tie. 

 The cau..e of this match was a fine trophy (a large silver pitcher) 

 which was shot for at Allentown last winter, when Thomas and Rust 

 tied on 14 each and decided to shoot off the tie in Philadelphia, but 

 were a long while making arrangement satisfactory to each. They 

 finally came together on the Keystone Shooting League grounds. 



The weather was miserable, there being a drizzling rain which kept 

 a number of friends of each away. Along with Thomas from Ambler 

 came Charles Brillman, A. Clements and about fifteen others, all of 

 whom were very anxious to see the trophy go back to Ambler, but it 

 was not to be, for Rust shot first and killed 21 out of 25. Thomas had 

 21 down out of 24 and only one bird to kill to win, but that one proved 

 too much, for it went sailing over the boundary in a hurry with both 

 loads of shot after it. The match was shot under Hurlingham rules, 

 50yds. boundary, as follows: 



A J Rush 0121220021022212222211222—21 



W H Thomas 2122122100222201212112220—21 



On Friday, the 30th, a little three-cornered race was shot on the 

 Wingohocking Gun Club grounds by three local shooters. As this 

 race was kept very quiet only three spectators besides a lot of boys 

 were on the grounds. It was a three race all around— three shooters, 

 three spectators and the low score was three kills. Scores follow,

The Pansy Gun Club. 



Kingston, N. Y., March 26.— There was a good attendance of spec- 

 tators at the weekly shoot of the Pansy Gun Club of Kingston, N. Y., 

 held March 24. The shooters had to contend with a high wind which 

 at times almost blew them off the platform, and made the targets 

 change their direction of flight every yard. The team races were 

 especially close and interesting.

Fort Dodge and Mason. 



Fort Dodge, la., March 26.— Contest between gun clubs of Manson 

 and Fort Dodge. Conditions, 5 men on a side, 15 Keystones and 15 live 

 birds each. The Keystones were shot at unknown angles , and the live 

 birds at 28yds., 50yd«. boundary. A gale of wind across the traps and 

 the excellent qualities of the live birds, many of which proved their 

 capacity as lead carriers, combined to lower the scores. This leaves 

 the clubs "hoss apiece," as Manson won from Fort Dodge about a 

 month ago. Another match will be shot to decide the tie:
