CLIMAX GUN CLUB'S RECORD FOR 1895. 
• The Climax Gun Club, of Plainfield, N. J., is composed of 63 mem- 
bers; its grounds are located midway between Fanwood and Plain- 
fleld, in a field near the Fanwood Road House. The club holds 
monthly prize shoots at targets, the system of handicap in force 
being one of allowance of extra targets; the allowances range from 1 
to 10 extra targets. The club shoot ,is at 25 targets, unknown angles. 
Points are scored for any number of breaks from 20 up to 25; no 
shooter can score more than 25 targets at any shoot, no matter how 
many he breaks; for 20 breaks 1 point is scored; for 21 breaks 2 points 
and so on ; 25 or more breaks score 6 points to the shooter. To qualify 
for a prize a shooter must attend a majority of the 12 monthly shoots. 
The record of the club for 1895 is given below, the secretary, Dan 
Terry, informing us that every shooter who has taken part in the 
majority of the shoots this year is entitled to a prize. With that in- 
formation as our basis, we figure that the prize list will be as shown 
in the following table:

at Rutherford. N. J., was well attended, 16 shooters putting in an 
appearance; 13 events were shot oil in addition to an individual match 
between Eddie Collins and Krebs, the latter winning with the excellent 
score of 45 out of 50, the targets being thrown at unknown angles. 
Considering the difficult way the targets are thrown at Rutherford, 
the scores in the sweeps were very good. Results in all the events

SING AC GUN CLUB. 
Dec. 25 — Several members of the Singac, N. J., Gun Club spent this 
afternoon at the traps on the club's grounds at Bunn's Hotel. The 
birds provided by Arthur Bunn were of the very best quality; their 
capabilities for flying and quickness are well shown by the scores 
made; so strong on the wing were they that during the afternoon 24 
of them were scored dead out of bounds. In event No. 3 each man 
lost a bird that way in the same round, or rather five successive 
birds dropped dead out of bounds. The main event of the day was a 
four-handed match between Wright and Henry as one team and 
Morgan and Smith as the other team. The conditions of the match 
were: 25 live birds per man, $25 a corner, 30yds. rise, 50yds. boundary. 
The result was a victory for Morgan and Smith by two birds, the 
scores standing 37 to 35 in their favor. Scores in all the events were 
as follows: 
Wright (30) 1221202.222022.0.1 2.220.2— 16

Nos. 2 and 3 were 5-bird sweeps, $3 entrance. 
Conners and A Bunn shot a match at 15 live birds, the conditions 
being $25 a side, Bunn to use only one barrel. The result was a vie 
tory for Conners by one bird, the score standing 11—10 in his favor.

AT WILLiRD PARK. 
Dec. Pier, of Boonton, N. J., and Nesbitt, of Newark, N. J., met 
to-day at Willard Park, Paterson, N. J., in a match at 25 live birds per 
man, 30yds. rise, fence boundary (about 65yds.), Huriingham rules, 
$25 a side, loser to pay for the birds. There was a strong wind blow- 
ing across the traps from l«ft to right, making right-quartering birds 
the hardest to catch. It will be noticed that the majority of tne lost 
birds were of that flight. The birds supplied by Boyle Bros, were an 
excellent lot; many of them as good as ever were trapped. Pier's 8th 
9th, 10th, 11th. 14th, 20t!h and 24th, and Nesbitt's 5th, 8th, 10th, 11th, 
13th, 15th and 18th were all exceedingly fast. Pier's 11th dropped just 
out of bounds, while his next bird dropped 3ft. inside the boundary, 
but got out before the dog could retrieve it. The dogs that did the 
retrieving were Morfey's Eagle and Boyle's Nancy; both dogs did well. 
This match created quite a lot of interest and a good crowd was pres- 
ent to witness it. Betting was brisk, with Pier as favorite. As will be 
seen from the score, the non-favorite won by two birds. T. W. Morf ey 
acted as referee; official scorer, Dutcher. Scores:

THE NEW TEAR'S TOURNAMENT. 
Jan. 1— The fifteenth annual New Year's tournament of the South 
Side Club, of Newark, N. J , was held to-day. The attendance was 
good, but the extremely cold and high wind kept the boys around the 
Stove instead of at the score. There were 25 shooters present, but the 
average entry list was very small for the reasons above stated. All 
events in the table given below were at unknown angles with the ex- 
ception of No, 3, which was shot under the expert rule, and No. 6, which 
was shot from traps pulled in reverse order. Scores:

CARTERET CLUB MEMBERS SHOOT IN A GALE. 
Jan. h. — The eontest of , to-day for the Knapp cup on the Carteret 
Club grounds will live long in the memory of those who took part in it 
and of those who witnessed it. Good birds and a 45-miles-an-hour gale 
were the main features of a memorable contest. As we have often 
stated before, the Carteret Club's grounds face the wrong way— nearly 
due north; to-day's gale being from the northwest, there was bound to 
be a lot of incomers, and as a matter of fact there were a great many 
such birds, 181 out of the 501 birds trapped in the main event showing 
incoming tendencies of one sort or another. Ordinarily that class of 
birds is easy; but if anybody thinks they were easy to-day, he should 
go out under precisely similar circumstances and try his hand at 
them. 
In the first place, the thermometer registered somewhere around 
the 16° above 0 mark, and the gale came raging across the Jersey 
fla ts and Newark Bay, tossing the waters of the bay into whitecapped 
waves that were worthy of the vicinity of Sandy Hook Lightship; it 
was no easy matter to stand steadily at the score and call "Pull," but 
that was a simple matter compared with the next problem the shooter 
had to solve: Open went the trap and out came something that shot 
up into the air and came back over the deadline with the speed of a 
baseball from the hands of big Amos Rusie. Talk about rocketing 
English pheasants I The Carteret birds could have given them point- 
ers to-day. Many of them killed stone dead in the air were whirled 
8 9 over the boundary, when under ordinary circumstances they would 
6 '6 *9 '9 10 " have been score< i dea,d birds. Under the circumstances, then, the 
93 " " scores put up by the leaders were the result of good, quick and accu- 
"8 rate work with both barrels. The conditions of the shoot were 50 live 
7 " "r birds per man, club handicap rise, $50 entrance, 28vds. men and for- 
9 4 'g ' ward being given the option of entering for $25; 20 per cent, of the

There were 11 entries in to-day's race, the contest starting shortly 
after the arrival of the 10 A. M. train from Liberty street Ferry at 
West Eighth street, Bayonne. After a few byes had been shot at

C Heddon. 
5 .... - Work started the event with a kill of a left-quartering driver that did 
its best to make headway against the gale; Butler, who followed him 
in " also killed his bird in good style. Then Chapin drew a fast bird from 
No. 5 that went off with the wind on its port bow; it was hit hard and 
fell right against the boundary, just managing to get across when the 
dog went for it, being retrieved a moment later. Lent, an assumed 
name that is a perfect disguise for one who has been described by the 
'» daily papers as "a comparative novice," killed his bird, a fast in- 
comer, and then Duryea lost his first bird dead out of bounds- this 
pigeon was an outgoer, that was struck hard with both barrels, turn- 
ing right around on the second shot and coming back over the dead- 
line before falling, the wind fairly drifting it over the wire. The rest 
of the 10 shooters killed their birds, Brokaw not arriving until the 4th 
round was under way. 
On account of the wind blowing the residue of the powder back 
into the eyes of the shooters, it was a matter of great importance to 
plant the first barrel correctly. Work thought he would protect his 
eyes from any such infliction, so wore a great pair of plain glass 
spectacles; he took them off at the end of the third round, attribut- 
ing the loss of his 2d and 3d birds to them; he claimed that he could 
not locate the birds accurately with them in time for his first barrel- 
his work after removing them seems to justify his claim. The second 
round commenced in a startling manner, the first four men on the 
list, Work, Butler, Chapin and Lent, all losing their birds- then 
Duryea made a capital second barrel kill of a very fast circling right- 
auarterer. Of the next five men to the score, Hoey, Stafford and 
Morns lost their birds, Hoey's and Morris's falling dead out of 
bounds. Thomas killed his bird and Knapp did the same thing to a 
pigeon that would have been a driver if the wind hadn't been blowing 
quite so hard. The close of the second round saw only two men out 
of the ten then shooting without a miss to their credit. Round No 3 
saw Work, Duryea, Thomas, Stafford and Knapp each lose their 
birds; thus there was not a single straight at that early period of the 
game. The score board showed a total of 16 killed to 14 lost, a most 
unusual score for any club to put up. 
Another extraordinary feature of the shoot was the way in which 
the scores showed up at the close of the 10th round, everybody having 
missed their share of birds: Work, Thomas, Morris and Brokaw 
were high with 7 out of 10; Butler, Lent, Chapin, Duryea, Hoey and 
Knapp had 6 out of 10, Stafford having lost 5 of his 10 birds; this gave 
a, total of 69 killed out of 110 shot at, an average of a little better than 
62^?!! From that time out the better shots did stronger work; they 
seemed to have caught on to the birds, bringing down some wonder- 
fully hard shots. After losing his 3d, 5th, 6th and 7th, the two latter 
being appropriately termed -'ghosts," Knapp did some excellent 
work, killing hard and easy birds with equal ease; out of his next 62 
birds, all in the cup race and ties,he scored 58, 3 of his lost birds falling 
dead out of bounds. Work's loss of his 7th bird, a very bard twister 
marked a great change in his style of shooting; after that loss he used 
good judgment, killing his incoming birds very quickly and planting 
his second barrel effectively when it was needed; on driving birds he 
did not use any extra haste, as they were unable to make much head- 
way against the wind. Out of his last 63 pigeons he scored 59; the 
bird scored lost in the ties will be y the subject of some little comment 
later on. 
The close of the 25th round, half way through the sweep, found the 
shooters in the following position: Work and Hoey 21, Chapin and 
Knapp 20, Duryea and Thomas 18, Butler 17, Morris and Brokaw 16, 
Stafford 15. Lent withdrew on the 19th round, with a total of 10 kills 
out of 18 shot at. The high wind so far had been by no means unfa- 
vorable for the chances of the scratch men ; they had an advantage 
over the short-distance shooters on incoming birds, while drivers and 
outgoers in general could not get away from them with anything like 
ordinary speed. In the second half of the sweep the wind went down 
very materially, the white caps disappearing from the waters of the 
bay almost entirely, only coming up now and then when the wind 
made its expiring efforts at disturbing things. 
The 26th round saw Work lose a bird from No. 4 trap that seemed to 
dodge both loads of shot; this brought him even with Knapp and 
Chapin, leaving Hoey 1 in the lead. The latter had been shooting in 
good form ever since the 10th round, making a. run of 15 straight out 
of the last 15 birds in his first 25; his run was 16 straight when he 
killed his 26th bird. Before he knew it, however, he was 1 behind, with 
Woik, Chapin and Knapp tied for first place; the 2 birds he drew in 
the 27th and 28th rounds were terrors; each jumped from the trap 
fully 20ft. into the air, coming back over the dead line with the pace 
of a duckhawk going down wind; they were not the class of birds on 
which runs of 100 straight in private are made. Work again went 
ahead in the 30th round when Chapin and Knapp lost their birds, both 
men going back to join Hoey in a tie for second place. Chapin broke 
this tie by losing his 32d bird, a very tricky bird indeed; his 38th fell 
dead out of bounds and, as Hoey also lost his 38th bird, Knapp was 
alone in second place and but 1 bird behind Work. When the latter 
miBsed his 40th bird matters became very interesting indeed ; Knapp 
and he were tied for first place, with Fred Hoey 1 behind them; Chapin 
came next, 1 behind Hoey; while 1 bird behind Chapin was Louis Dur- 
yea, who had struck his gait and was taking hard and easy birds alike 
Chapin lost his 43d and 44th birds, dropping behind Duryea, but the 
latter evened matters by losing his 46th bird dead out of bounds. The 
three leaders did not alter their positions, killing out straight to the 
end, Knapp finishing his second string of 25 witb a run of 20 straight 
and a total of 24 out of the 25, 1 dead out of bounds. 
The tie for the cup. was then shot off at 5 birds. The first 5 were ac- 
counted for by each man, and another 5 was ordered. The 3d bird in 
this set seemed likely to cause the loss of the cup so far as Work was 
concerned; No. 1 trap was pulled and a dark blue bird flipped up and 
lit again about a yard or so on the far side of the trap; as it had been 
on the wing Work preferred to make it a '-no bird," shooting at it on 
the ground; his shot seemed to go all around the bird without doing 
it much harm, as it instantly jumped into the air and came back over 
the score, a towering left-quartering incomer, and was missed by the 
contents of the second shell. Work explained the apparent miss of 
the bird on the ground by saying that his pattern seemed to open, 
leaving the bird unscathed in the middle of it. Knapp killed his bird, 
and had only two more to kill to win his own cup. For his 4th bird in 
this series of 5 Work drew an easy one, which he killed; Knapp's 4th 
was a fast one from No. 3 that carried both charges of shot out of 
bounds. Both men killed their 5th birds and honors were easy once 
more. The 3d series of 5 saw no change, as each man killed his birds, 
Work perhaps having a little the best of it just now in the matter of 
luck of the birds. The 4th series of 5 settled the possession of the 
cup. Work killed his 5 birds, but Knapp lost his 4th bird, the pigeon 
falling dead against the fence; his kill of his 3d bird in this series was 
a great piece of shooting. Work thus won the cup with the great score 
for this weather of 63 kuied out of 70 shot at, and that too after losing 
his 2d, 3d and 7th birds in the sweep. 
Knapp took second money, third money going to Fred Hoey, who 
scored 43 out of 50, Duryea ana Chapin, who each scored 40, divided

BOILING SPRINGS GUN CLUB, 
Jan. 1.— The Boiling Springs Gun Club, of Rutherford, N. J., held a 
most successful live-bird shoot to-day, 16 shooters putting up their $15 
to take part in a 25 live-bird race. The day was bright and clear, with 
a strong wind blowing that made the birds hard to score. Christy,

losing his 25th; they divided $36. Third money, $24, went to Gladwin,
