DRIVERS AND TWISTERS. 
Club secretaries are invited to send their scores for publication in 
these columns, also any news notes they may care to have printed. 
Ties in all events are considered as divided unless otherwise reported. 
Mail all such matter to Forest and Stream Publishing Company, SIS 
Broadway, New York. 
A dispatch dated Jan. 20, to the San Antonio, Texas, Daily News* 
from Austin, Texas, the home of Wallace Miller, says: "A hunting 
party composed of Capt. Harry Owens, Geo. Mendell, Gus Southern- 
wood, Pat Lochridge, John Nefi', Monroe Miller and Wallace Miller, of 
this city; O. R. Dickey, of Boston, and Tom Keller, of New York, re- 
turned last night from a week's deer hunt on the Frio River, thirty 
miles from Cotulla. The party had fairly good luck and killed alto- 
gether ten deer, seventeen turkeys and one large wildcat. Mr. Loch- 
ridge killed three of the deer, Capt. Owens two, and Messrs. Mendell, 
Monroe. Miller, Dickey, Southernwood and Wallace Miller one each. 
Mr. Neff killed the cat, while all the hunters had a hand in bagging 
the turkeys. They report a great time and are figuring on returning 
to the Frio at an early date to enjoy another huat." 
The most recent big match in the amateur circles of New York city, 
the four-handed match which was shot on the grounds of the West- 
minster Kennel Club on Jan. 22, was remarkable for the closenesB of 
the finish rather than for the scores made, the latter being all below 
the average that might be expected from such shooters as Knapp, 
Work, Murphy and Yale Dolan. At one time, the end of the 55th 
round, when Work and Murphy were 5 ahead, it looked as if that 
team was about to run away with the match; then came a great brace 
on the part of Knapp and Dolan, which, coupled with a slight falling 
off on the part of Work and Murphy, tied the score at the end of the 
74th round. The 100th round closed with Murphy going to the score 
and having to kill to win. 
The Altoona, Pa., Rod and Gun Club held its annual meeting on 
Saturday night, Jan. 18, and elected the following list of officers for 
1896: President, G. T. Bell (re-elected for a fourth term); Vice-Presi- 
dent, J. R. Eustace; Secretary, W. S. Bookwalter; Treasurer, R, N, 
Fay; Captain, J. F. Killits; Directors, Ed. Kottman, T. J. House, 
Michael Basti'an, W. W. Wilson, J. F. Killits and W. E. Bell. The sub- 
ject of holding its annual tournament next June was broached at the 
meeting and Messrs. Killits, Kottman and Bookwalter were appointed 
as the tournament committee to make all the necessary arrangements. 
The programme for the E. C. tournament in May is now well under 
way and will be in the hands of the printer before long. Of course 
the main features will be the championship events, which will be run 
on the lines suggested by Fobbst and Stream last fall, with probably 
a few slight deviations from the plan then outlined. The choice of 
grounds on which to hold the championship is still under advisement, 
but it is more than likely that Willard Park, Paterson, N. J., will 
be decided upon, if the use of the grounds for such a purpose 
will not interfere with the baseball season of the Paterson Baseball 
Club. 
Note the change in the announcement of the Cleveland tournament. 
The change is both novel and startling: "June 17-19.— Cleveland, O. — 
Third annual tournament of the Chamberlin Cartridge and Target 
Company. Targets thrown free of charge; $770 in cash added to the 
purses." "Targets thrown free of charge" means (if 40,000 targets 
are thrown at the tournament) practically the same thing as $1,200 
added money. In addition to the above, $770 in cash will be added to 
the purses. Paul North is nothing if not original. The "man from 
Ohio" has a great head! 
The Boiling Springs-Endeavor teem shoot on Saturday afternoon, 
Jan. 25, resulted in a good race, the Boiling Springs men winning by 7 
breaks. The afternoon was delightful for target shooting; the con- 
sequence was there was a good turnout of shooters, particularly on 
the part of the home club— Boiling Springs. The most notable guests 
of the club were swarms of real Jersey mosquitoes that did their song 
and dance act in warm, sheltered nooks in the club's grounds, just as 
f it was summer, and not a bit as if zero weather had only been gone 
a week or so. 
The Interstate Association announces that it has completed its 
Southern circuit by arranging to give a tournament at Natchez, Miss., 
as announced in a letter from Manager Shaner to us, given elsewhere. 
The Rose system will be given a trial at the Charleston tournament, 
the purses on one day being divided on that system; as a good means 
for testing the present system in company with the^Rose system, the 
purses on the remaining day of the shoot will be divided the old way— 
40, 30, 20 and 10 per cent. 
The Elliott-Morfey match will probably take place the latter part of 
next week. Elliott is back again from San Antonio and expects to be 
in form by that date. The conditions are: $100 a Bide, 100 live birds 
per man, 30yds. rise, 50yds. boundary. Elliott will shoot a Winches- 
ter, Morfey using his double gun. This will be one of the most inter- 
esting matches of the season. Both men will surely try hard to win. 
Morfey says Elliott will have to kill over 90 to win. 
Don't forget that all entries for the Dexter Park handicap on Feb. 6 
must reach H. S. Lippack, the proprietor of Dexter Park, Jamaica 
avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y., accompanied by a forfeit of $5, not later 
than Feb. 4. The conditions of the shoot are: 25 live birds, $10 
entrance, birds extra, handicaps from 26 to 31yds., 50yds. boundary ; 
if 10 entries, $15 added to the purse; if 15 entries, $25; if 20 entries or 
more, $40; class shooting, 4 moneys, A. S A. rules to govern. 
The annual report of the secretary of the New Jersey Trap-Shooters 
League, together with an account of the proceedings at the annual 
meeting, appears elsewhere in these columns. The League has done a 
great deal in past seasons for the benefit of trap-shooting in New Jer- 
sey, and much of that good may be directly traced to the efforts of the 
secretary, W. R. Hobart, of the South Side Gun Club, Newark, N. J., 
in behalf of the League. 
J. P. Knapp has added another cup to his already long list of 
trophies won by him at the traps. On Saturday, Jan. 25, he went 
down to Eddington, Pa., the home of the Philadelphia Gun Club, and 
carried off the cup in the 50 live-bird event by killing 45 in the sweep 
and 9 in the shoot-off with Macalester, who had tied him with a like 
score of 45. 
There is gloom in the Pittsburg, Pa., Gun Club. Old Hoss, one of 
its old stand-bys, and one of the most popular men ever seen at a 
tournament, threatens to give up shooting altogether because he 
could not break more than 75 out of 100 targets at unknown angles 
the other day. We don't think the boys need fear that Old Hoss 
will leave the field yet; he'll be on deck at Elkwood Park and will 
shoot for the $1,000 guaranteed in the Grand American Handicap. 
E. S. Rice, general agent for the Du Pont Smokeless Powder Com 
pany, located in Chicago, Ills., writes us under date of Jan. 22, that 
the Du Pont Company will hold a target tournament in Chicago on 
August 4, 5 and 6. He gives us no details, but we suppose that this 
tournament will be on the same lines as all the big tournaments of 
the present day. 
The Hazard* 'Blue Ribbon" Powder Company is distributing among 
the gun clubs of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and the New 
England States individual score cards for the use of club members at 
their club shoots or tournaments. John L. Lequin, secretary of the 
company, writes us: "If we overlook any clubs, it will not be done 
jRt§n.tionally, but because wg £aye not their names on our list," 
The Montana State Sportsmen's Association claims May 22-24 as the 
dates for its tournament at Missoula, Mont. The shoot will be under 
the auspices of the Missoula Rod and Gun Club. 
The Troy, N. Y., Gun Club has elected the following officers for 
1896: President, Dr. R. S. Dinsmore; Secretary, John S. Norman; 
Treasurer, C. V. Shirley. 
Edward Banks. 
Grand American Handicap. 
We have received notice from Manager 8haner, of the Interstate 
Association, that the Association will make a radical departure from 
its usual methods of dividing the purse in the Grand American Handi* 
cap, which event will be decided at Elkwood Park during the last 
week in March. The proposed change has been under advisement for 
some time and has taken shape as follows: 
One thousand dollars is guaranteed in this event, to be divided 
among the three high guns as usual, in the proportion of 50, 30 and 
20 per cent. It requires forty entries to clear the management of any 
lossjn this guarantee; forty entries at $25 a head means $1,000 in the 
purse. Hitherto it has been the custom to divide all the surplus 
among the three high guns in the same proportion, but this year the 
Association has determined to divide the surplus over the guarantee 
of $1,000 among some of the other shooters on the following plan: 
If there are over 40 but not more than 50 entries, all surplus will be 
divided 50, 30 and 20 per cent, to the 3 next highest guns; if over 50 
but not more than 60 entries, the surplus will be divided 30, 25, 20,15 and 
10 per cent, to the 5 next highest guns; if over 60 and not more than 
70 entries, the surplus will be divided 25," 20, 15, 12J4 12L£, 10 and 5 per 
cent, to the 7 next highest guns; if over 70 i>nd not more than 100 
entries, surplus to be divided 12, 12. 12, 10, 10,"10, 8, 8, 8, 5 and 5 per 
cent, to the 11 next highest guns. Practically the above plan may 
be defined thus: If 40 entries or less, $1,000 to the 8 high guns; 41 
to 50, 6 moneys, high guns, the 3 high guns of course dividing 
$1,000; 51 to 60, 8 moneys; 61 to 70, 10 moneys; 71 to 100, 14 moneys. In 
all these cases the 3 highest guns divide $1,000—50, 30 and 20 per cent. 
It must be remembered also that this is not class shooting, but is 
"high guns" all the time. 
In formulating this plan the Association had in its mind the idea of 
popularizing the greatest trap-shooting event of the year in live-bird 
circles, by giving others besides the three high guns a share in the 
purse. The idea is a good one. it seems to us. and should have the 
desired effect of inducing additional entries sufficient to approach the 
highest notch named— 100 entries. There is no doubt that the high- 
gun plan of past grand American handicaps has had the effect of 
bringing the event into prominence, the possibility of winning $500 by 
taking first place in the handicap being a great inducement when the 
outlay is only a little more than $30. We think, however, that when a 
shooter figures that he may pull out more than even, supposing that 
he does drop a bird or perhaps two, he is more apt to enter an affair 
of this kind than he would if he felt that he had to be one of the three 
favored ones to get anything at all. Like all other new moves of a 
similar character, the actual result can only be determined by trial, 
but it looks very much like a go. 
Trap Around Buffalo. 
rochkbter defeats the audubons. 
Buffalo, N. Y., Jan. 16.— The Rochester (N. Y.) Rod and Gun Club 
brought a team of 21 men to shoot to-day against a team of a similar 
number selected from the Audubon Gun Club. Rochester won by 31 
breaks, the scores showing 404—373 in favor of that team. The full 
scores were as follows:

emond makes a big score. 
Jan. 15. —The second of the series of three 100-bird races arranged 
between Jake Koch and W. Emond was brought off to-day at Audu- 
boxi Park. To-day's race was one of the best ever seen in this city, 
and a large crowd was out to witness it. Emond snot wonderfully 
well, actually killing 99 out of his 100, eight of them dropping outside 
the boundary; he shot a very careful race, being particularly careful 
about drivers; this made him a trifle slow on some birds, as his loBt 
birds, with the exception of two, were all drivers; one of these two 
was a left-quarterer that went away apparently untouched; the other 
was an incomer that fell dead just behind the score. Koch also shot 
a great race, having slightly the worst of it in the matter of luck; his 
gun broke down during the race and he was obliged to shoot another 
while it was being fixed up. 
After tieing at the end of the 50th round on 46 all, Koch made a 
bad break, losing his 51st, 52d, 54th and 55th, thus giving Emond an 
advantage which be never lost, ultimately winning by three birds. At 
the end of the 75th round the score stood: Koch 65, Emond 69, the 
latter being still 4 ahead. High runs were: Emond 26, 19, 11 and 
11; Koch 27, 18, 13 and 12. Score:

Philadelphia Gun Club. 
The Philadelphia Gun Club, with grounds at Eddington, Pa., com- 
pleted a two-day's shoot at live birds on Saturday afternoon last, Jan. 
25. On the first day, Jan, 24, the weather was anything but pleasant, 
but on Saturday it was all that could be asked with the exception, 
perhaps, of a lack of wind to help the birds. On the previous day a 
strong northeasterly gale helped to make the birds very hard, Its 
effect being only slightly reduced by a heavy downpour of rain that 
lasted all day. 
The first day's programme consisted of three events: 10 birds, $10 
entrance; 25 birds, $35 entrance, and a $5 miss-and-out. In the first 
event George Work carried off first money alone on 10 Straight. Four 
men tied for second and third money; Lent winning second on the 
shoot off, miss-and-out, by killing 4 straight. Macalester and Dolan 
divided third. 
The 25-bird sweep was productive of some very fine shooting, Fred 
Hoey, from the 30yds. mark, taking first alone with a clean score of 36 
kills. Macalester and Davis tied for second and third money on 24 out 
of 25, Macalester losing his 23d bird, and Davis actually running 
straight up to the very last round when he lost his bird dead out of 
bounds. Work and Dale tied for fourth place on 22 out of 25. Davis's 
run of one-barrel kills in his score of 34 is something remarkable, his 
second barrel only being called into service six times, five of the six 
with effect. 
Work and Davis won the miss-and-out on scores of 11 straight, 
Davis again using his first barrel with telling effect. During the day 
he scored 45 out of 48 shot at. Fred. Hoey shot in great form, mak- 
ing a ruD of 35 straight before he dropped his bird in the misB-and- 
out. 
The attendance was hardly as big as had been expected; perhaps 
the bad weather had a great deal to do with it. The most notable ab- 
sentee was J. P. Knapp, who was present on the second flay and shot 
as usual well up to the front. The scores in to-day's events were: 
No. 1. Ties. No. 2.

Second Day. 
The main event on Saturday, Jan. 25, was a 50-bird Bweap, $50 en- 
trance, 30yds. rise all, 50yds. boundary. The trophy was a cup pre- 1 
sented by the Philadelphia Gun Club, which, with 40 per cent, of the 
purse (less 10 per cent, for the club), went to the winner. 
This affair had only six entries, the quality of the shooters presum- 
ably scaring out several who might have en ered had the event been 
just half as long. As it was, it resolved itself into a New York vs . 
Philadelphia match— six-handed at that— three men to a side. On the 
New York side was a strong trio — Knapp. Work and Hoey; Philadel- 
phia bad as her representatives Charles MacaleBter, Junius Davis aud 
B. Parker. 
Hoey and Davis, both of whom had made excellent scores on the , 
previous day, failed to hold up their ends on this occasion, both of 
them retiring before the 50th round was called. While Knapp was 
the favorite, naturally so from his recent form, Macalester and Work | 
are always dangerous and were looked upon as certain to give the i 
ultimate winner, if Knapp should bring off the good thing, a hard rub i 
for the prize. As matters turned out, Knapp and Macalester had to j 
shoot off a tie for the cup, both scoring 45 out of 50. On the shoot-off 
Knapp won by killing 9 out of 10 to Macalester's 8. The latter has 
thus been unfortunate enough to lose a chance of two big trophies 
recently, the Larchmont cup being one, after tieing for each cup and i 
having to shoot off for the trophies. Parker gave Work a tight race 
up to the 45th round; he then lost his 45th bird and followed up this 
misfortune by losing his 49th dead out of bounds. Work took third 
money on 43 out of his 50. The scores made were as follows:
