In tbe case of Henry Alfred Alexander Thorn, a gun-maker, trading 

 as Charles Lancaster, asrainet the Herculite and Electrical Manufac- 

 turing Company, Limited, of Bower-road, Hackney-wick, for givinga 

 false trade description to an article sold by them-Mr -Thomas Terrell 

 -the prosecution was a friendly one. instituted with the object of 

 obtaining a decision from the bench as to the right of the application 

 of the word "clay" to all inanimate targets, of whatever material, 

 which are whirled into the air at shooting matches as substitutes for 

 live pigeons. The complainant said he had a. largo business in clay 

 Digeons." The necessary qualities of a clay pigeon were in itsooior. 



pigeons." The necessary qualities of a clay pigeon were in us cuua, 

 its easy breakage when struck by shot, and its possession of sufficient 

 firmness to withstand the jar of the trap from which it was thrown 

 into the air. They could only be made from particular kinds of clay, 

 which were very rare, and he had bought the monopoly of their sale. 

 He noticed a few months ago that the defendant company was selling 

 "clav pigeons." and last July he ordered a number of them. They 

 were not made of clay, but of some bituminous composition. _ The 

 sale of these composition pigeons had materially affected his business. 

 His pigeons were manufactured in America and Germany. Ine 

 pigeons supplied by the company were of different colors, and he, as 

 an expert, saw at once that they were not made of clay. Mr. Corner 

 contended for defendant, that the words "clay pigeon constituted a 

 technical term, and could be applied to any inanimate target, whether 

 of clay, pitch, bone, brass, or any other material. Expert evidence 

 was called in support of each side of the case. Mr. Newton, m giving 

 his decision, said that he had come to the conclusion that the sum- 

 mons was well founded, and that the trade description of the "pigeons 

 sold by the defendant company was false, inasmuch as they were not 

 made of clay. The company would have to pay a fine of 30s., with 5 

 guineas costs.— London Chronicle. 



The sixth annual tournament of the Standard Gun Club, of Balti- 

 more, will be held July 16, 17 and 18 on the shooting grounds at

 unless every team entered agree to changing it. Empire traps and 

 targets will be used. H. E. Lurus, Secretary, 527 Columbia avenue, 

 Baltimore, Md. 



If the local managers of the Prairie Gun Club tournament in 

 Chicago the other day had not expended all their breath in vociferous 

 romancing about what a big time they were going to have, theymigbt 

 have had some strength left to provide for running the shoot properly. 

 As it was. the Interstate officials were not given the help they should 

 have had, and had to contend with great odds. 



The executive committee announce that they have just completed 

 arrangements whereby Mr. John Parker, of Detroit. Mich., will 

 assume the direction of the thirty -sixth annual tournament of the 

 New York State Association for the Protection of Fish and Game, to

 knows John Parker will concede his masterly ability as an organizer 

 and conductor of shooting tournaments. We propose to make this 

 the best shoot ever held in the world, and now that we have secured 

 the services of Mr. Parker we are more than ever satisfied with the 

 outlook."

The Princeton-Trenton Shoot. 



Editor Forest and Stream: 



I would like to correct several errors in "Wads's" report of the 

 Princeton-Trenton shoot. "Wads" says in the latter part of the race at 

 Princeton, the strain on the Tigers' nerves was more than they could 

 stand, and leaves the impression that this lost tliein the race. The 

 score says different. They broke more in their last ninety at unknown 

 ang es than they did in their first ninety knowing their traps and 

 angles. This can probably be accounted for when we remember that 

 a Princeton man pulled the traps, and that every time a Tiger pointed 

 his gun over a certain trap, luck (?) would favor him and he would get 

 that trap. a 



"Wads's" talk about professionals is amusing, as there are only two 

 or tnree men on tbe Trenton team who have been shooting targets 

 over one year the others shooting their first race at Princeton All 

 seem agreeably surprised to find themselves to the professional ranks 

 so soon. Thanks to "Wads." 



The traps at Trenton were set as near the rules as possible, aud 

 pulled by a person who favored neither side, but u Princeton man find- 

 ing he could not hit a certain bird stopped the race while he shot five 

 shells in practice from birds at that particular trap, breaking the last 

 one and missing all the rest, Such an amount of cheek surprised the 

 Trenton people, as we " as somfi from Princeton, but after some one 

 said that it was according to "Princeton rules" it was dropped 



The Princeton men have had everything tbeir own way in these 

 races, and I am surprised to hear such kicking from their representa- 

 tvye - . An Onlookmk.

"Trap-Shooter's Ready Reckoner." 



Three has just come from the Forest asd Stream 

 press an extremely useful pocket reference book for 

 trap-shooters. It's full title reads: "Trap-Shooter's 

 Ready Reckoner. A series of tables showing at a glance 

 the division of purses under all conditions, simple and 

 complex, with entries from one to fifty. For use by 

 individuals, clubs and tournaments. Compiled by J. C. 

 Clark, Secretary Kansas State Sportsmen's Association." 



The tables have been compiled for the use of all trap- 

 shooters in general, and the cashiers of tournaments in 

 particular. They cover every variety of event in com- 

 mon use at tournaments. Each table is arranged for 

 targets charged at two cents, and at three cents; and 

 shows the gross amount in the purse, the amount to he 

 deducted for targets, net purse for division, and the per- 

 centages, 60. 50, 40, 30, 20 and 10 per cent. This showing 

 is made for any number of participants from 5 to 50. By 

 the use of the tables, much time, labor and expense is 

 saved in the cashier's box, and all mistakes in calculating 

 percentages, and paying out the various moneys are 

 avoided. The book will be found not less useful to every 

 participant in a tournament, as the sum in the purse, 

 and the exact amount in every division can be instantly 

 ascertained. 



The tables are arranged progressively, both as to 

 number of targets and as to entry fees. For added 

 facility of reference the number of targets, entry fee and 

 price of targets are noted in the upper rieht-hand corner 

 of each page, thus 10-1-2 for 10 targets, $1 entry, and 2 

 cents per target. 



We give here the first page of the "Reckoner" for 

 illustration of its use. 



As an illustrative example of how to use the tables, 

 take a match at 10 targets, $1 entry, targets costing 2 

 cents each, 20 entries, and purse divided 50;? to first, 30% 

 to second, and 20% to third. To ascertain amount due 

 each class of winners: Turn to page 10-1-2, and find the 

 entries number 20 in first column. The second column 

 gives the total amount paid in, $20; the third column the 

 total cost of targets, $4; the fourth column the net 

 purse, $16; the column headed 50%, the amount of first 

 money, 58: the column headed 30$, the amount of second 

 money, $4 80; and the column headed 20$, the amount of 

 third money, $3.20. ■ 



Of the "Reckoner" Mr. E. D. Miller, of Springfield, N. 

 J., writes: "After looking over your 'Ready Reckoner,' 

 lam very much pleased with it, and think it just the 

 thing for all tournaments and club shoots where divisions 

 of money have to be made in a hurry. The most expert 

 mathematician often makes mistakes, and by relying on 

 your ready 'Reckoner' all trouble and delays of that sort 

 will be avoided.— E. D. Miller.' '

Trap at San Antonio. 



The regular shoot for the diamond medal of the Powder Hill Gun 

 Club of San Antonio was slimly attended on the 20th inst., most of the 

 regular attendants attending some of the numerous picnics given on 

 that day. The few enthusiasts on hand, however, did some good 

 shooting, as the appended scores will show, Mr. Critzer particularly 

 distinguishing himself by making the best score of the season with a 

 24-gauge Kessler gun, %oz. shot propelled by 2drs. American wood 

 powder.

SAN ANTONIO GUN CLUB. 



Nineteen men entered for the regular weekly trophy shoot of the 

 above club at the Lakeview grounds on May 20. Messrs. Tendlck, 

 France and Rothwell tied for first place, and the shoot-off resulted in 

 favor of the first named gentleman. His victory is particularly inter- 

 esting to him, owing to his being young at the trap, whereas his com- 

 petitors are old-timers. Twenty singles, and five pairs doubles, known 

 traps, unknown angles on the singles:

Missoula Rod and Gun Club. 



Missoula, Mont., May 20.— A sky which threatened rain served to 

 keep indoors all but eight members of the Missoula Rod and Gun Club, 

 when the hour arrived for the weekly medal shoot to day. The usual 

 conditions were observed, viz. ; 15 singles, known angles, 16 and 18 yds. 

 rise. Anthony Harritz captured the Class A medal with a score of 14, 

 and J. P- Harrard walked off with the Class B medal, to the turn of a 

 clean score. As there will be a re-classification of the shooters before 

 the wept contest, Merrard will have a chance at the gold medal at , 

 that time with an even show to win, especially if "champion" Bob 

 Rogers happens to be absent again.

Fargo Gun Club. 



Faroo, N. D, May 17.— The high wind kept the members of the 

 Fargo Gun Club from the grounds, only two members appeared and 

 their scores were made in a gale of wind that blew the targets either 

 up to the sky or down to the ground, the flight depending entirely on 

 the angle the targets met the wind.
