Feb. 5.— Owing to the disagreeable conditions of the weather only a 
few members of the Union Gun Club, of Springfield, N. J., have so 
far faced the traps in the monthly contests for club prizes. Below are 
the names of those who have attended the two shoots held thus far 
in '96, together with the records made:

AT THE CARTERET CLUB. 
Feb. 5.— To-day was originally set as the day on which the second 
Knapp cup contest was to take place; shooting to commence on the 
arrival of the 10 A. M. train from New York. The only members of 
the club that put in an appearance on that train wereCapt. A. W. 
Money, Fred Hoey and LouiB Duryea. The conditions of the contest 
are: 50 live birds per man, $50 entrance for men on the 29yds. mark 
and back, optional $50 or $25 entrance for men forward of the 29yds. 
mark; five entries or no contest. The last clause put a stopper on the 
shoot for to-day It did not prevent a great day's spore, however, 
because the three shooters above named, reinforced at 2 P. M. by 
Work, Knapp, Lent and McAlpin, managed to shoot at 539 birds be- 
fore the guns had to be hurriedly packed up in order that the 5:29 P. 
M. train might be connected with at the West Eighth street station, 
C. of N. J. R. R. Including byes and no birds there must have been 
very little short of 600 birds trapped on the Carteret grounds between 
11 A. M. and 5:10 P. M. This was very good work, particularly as 
there was no hurry during the first three hours, an excellent lunch 
also taking a good slice out of a half hour. 
The weather was dull, with very little wind to aid the birds. On 
dark birds there was very little to complain of, the snow making a 
nice diffused light, and when birds flow low showing them up like 
crows. On light birds and mud-eolored ones, of which there were alto- 
gether too many for such a day, the background was most trying. With 
birds so mixed in color, injustice was bound to be done to a shooter 
now and then; luck was too strong an element for short sweepstake 
shooting. A notable case of this kind occurred in the sixth event; it 
was a 10-bird sweep, $10 entrance. The three shooters tied on 9 each, 
and then shot off miss-and-out. Hoey's 5th tie bird was a pure white 
one from No. 1 that left the trap very fast and low, skimming over the 
snow, which it resembled very closely in color. Hoey hit it very hard 
with the first barrel, but a little too far back; he was unable to locate 
it accurately with his second, the bird going out of bounds over the 
left field fence, becoming the property of a boy who was on the look- 
out for just such snaps. Duryea and Money both drew easy dark- 
colored birds in the same round, and had no difficulty in dividing up 
Hoey's $10. 
The most interesting part of an interesting day's sport was the 
return to his best form on the part of Capt. Money. The captain 
had lost his grip apparently about a year ago and it looked as if he 
was never going to find it; to-day settled all disputes on that point ; he 
was right in it from the time he fired at his 7th bird, scoring 123 out of 
his last 131. It is true that he drew a lot of easy birds at times, but he 
also killed his hard ones in good quick time and used his second barrel 
on incoming birds with his usual good judgment and;accuracy. To say 
that Capt. Money was tickled with his shooting hardly expresses it; 
any way he was justified in feeling good over it. He was in for part 
of pretty nearly every pot with a regularity that grew so monotonous 
that Fred Hoey straightaway revived the nickname of "Old Cinch," 
a soubriquet earned by the captain when he first came to this coun- 
try on account of the regularity with which he won his matches and 
bets. 
Duryea started off well, making a run of 25 straight; then he struck 
bad luck for the remainder of the day, losing 9 birds dead out of 
bounds, and like Hoey, losing them just at the wrong time. He was 
shooting again as well as ever when the time came for quitting. Hoey 
was not in form at all; in fact he has never shot as well since he came 
back from Europe as he did before he went there. It is his first barrel 
that seems to us to be wrong, while time and time again he throws 
away his second when it would have done him a lot of good. Luck in 
the matter of birds also seems to pursue him at the Carteret grounds; 
he and Stafford appear to draw the pick of the crate right along. To- 
day he drew what seemed to us to be the two best birds of the day; 
one was the bird in No. 6 referred to above, the other was his 
18th bird in No. 4; it was a black bird that sprang straight up into the 
air and kept climbing up until Hoey had fired his second barrel, when 
it flew back over the house and lit out for the Statue of Liberty at the 
rate of speed never attained bytheEnpire State Express. Hoey 
called that bird bad names with impunity ; it was miles awav before 
he could think of an epithet that could be suitably applied to a bird of 
that kind. . ^ ^ 
Of those who came down in the afternoon Knapp did the best work, 
but shot at the fewest number of birds, leaving early to catch a train 
for the city. Lent made a good run of 28 straight, besides killing 11 
straight in a miss-and-out, No. 11; his handicap distance is very light, 
but he is too erratic a shooter to be put much further back. Work 
was shooting a new Purdey that he bought from Charles Mac- 
alester; it is a hammer gun, something that is uncommon at shoots 
nowadays, especially in the East. He made one nice run of 19 straight, 
but his percentage was the lowest made during the day. McAlpin 
was unlucky from the start; he lost his first bird in both Nos. 11 and 
12, rnissand-outs, having to sit down and wait for the others to fall 
out; both his birds fell dead out of bounds. In No. 13 he had only to 
kill his sixth bird to tie Work for first money; he called "Pull," but 
the apparatus wouldn't work; after it had been apparently made all 
right he called "Pull" once more; again it would not work; the third 
time he called "Pull," after a short time had been spent in fixing the 
apparatus, No. 4 trap opened and a twisting driver jumped forth and 
made for Newark Bay and Bafety— lost bird. It was a case of sheer 
hard luck. 
A funny thing happened in the 3d round of No. 16: Capt. Money 
was at the score and drew a right- quarterer from No. 1 trap that was 
clean missed with the first barrel ; as the bird showed symptoms of light- 
ing Money did not fire at it, expecting to make sure of it with his sec- 
ond on the ground; the bird did light, but when it did so it hid behind 
No. 5 trap and refused to come out for a long time, keeping the 
shooter on the qjii vive, with his gun to his shoulder. John Hoey was 
the referee, and after the bird had been scored the question was asked 
him, "What could have been done had the bird refused to como out 
from behind the trap?" He said that although there was nothing in 
the rules governing such a case, in his opinion, under the circum- 
stances, if a balk was claimed it should be allowed, the shooter shooting 
at another bird with the use of both barrels. Such a decision seems 
to ub to be perfectly fair and just to everybody. The result of each 
event is given in detail below: 
No. 1 was a 5-bird sweep, $5: Duryea won it with a straight score. 
No. 2 was a 10-bird match between Duryea and Hoey, $10 a corner. 
Money shooting along for practice; Duryea again went straight and 
won the $10. No. 3 was a 10-bird match between Duryea and Capt. 
Money, $10 a side, under the following conditions, both at 31yds., 
Money getting a miss as a no bird; both tied on 10 straight, and 
Money refused to shoot off on even terms, that is, without an allow- 
ance, so the stakes were drawn down. No. 4 was a 20-bird sweep, op- 
tional $20 or $10 entrance: Money won with 19 out of 20. No. 5 was 
a 10-bird, $10, match between Duryea and Hoey; Duryea won with 9 
out of 10. No. 6 was a similar race, three-cornered; all tied on 9 out 
of 10; shooting off miss-and-out, Money and Duryea divided on the 
5th round of the ties. No. 7 was another race of the same nature; 
Hoey and Money divided with 9 out of 10, also divibing No. 8, which 
was another 10-bird sweep. The three then started on No. 9; this was 
to be the same as No. 9; at the end of the third round. Work, Knapp 
and Lent having arrived, the sweep was carried along into No. 10 and 
part of No. 11. making it a 10-bird race; Money won the purse alone. 
No. 10 was 5 birds, $5; Money again took first. Duryea, Hoey and 
Knape tieing for the second money and deciding the tie in No. 11, 
when Knapp t"ok it, Duryea losing hiB 11th bird. Money again came 
to the front in No. 11, a $5 miss-and out, winning first with 12 streight, 
Lent and Knapp losing their 12th birds, Knapp's bird falling dead out 
of bounds. No. 12 was alBO a $5 miss-and-out, as were all the events 
shot after this one. Work and Money divided the pot in No. 12; Work 
won first in No. 13, Knapp and McAlpin tieing for second money. No. 
14 was divided by Hoey and Lent on 10 straight. Work losing his 10th 
bird dead out of bounds. Money and Lent divided No. 15 by killing 11 
straight, McAlpin dropping his 11th bird. No. 16 was divided between 
McAlpin and Hoey, Hoey and Duryea dividing the next event, No. 17. 
Duryea and Money divided No. 18, the last event of the day, with 8 
straight, Hoey staying in until the 8th round. 
The long runsmade during the day were: Money, 30, 27, 18, 15 and 
14; Duryea, 25, 13, 12, 12 and 10; Lent, 28 and 11; Hoey, 19 and 12; Work, 
19; Knapp, 10; McAlpin, 10. Following are the total scores for theday: 
Money, 126 out of 137; Hoey, 113 out of 131; Duryea, 99 out of 116; 
Knapp, 23 out of 27; Lent, 45 out of 53; McAlpin, 25 out of 30; Work, 
37 out of 45.

endeavor versus boiling springs. 
Feb 8.— The return match between teams of the Endeavor Gun 
Club, of Jersey City, and the Boiling Springs Gun Club, of Rutherford, 
N. J., took place this afternoon on the grounds of the Endeavors, at 
Marion. The afternoon was dull and somewhat raw, not exactly 
favorable conditions for target shooting. A late start was made, no 
shooting being done until 2 P. M., but between that hour and 5:15 over 
2,000 targets were thrown, Messrs. Strader, Creveling and Pierc? keep- 
ing thingB moving when once a start was made. The targets were 
thrown very hard and low; the light, too, was very deceptive; so 
much so that straightaway after straightaway was permitted to go 
free, a large percentage of the loBt targets being straightaways 
The main event, of course, was the team race, 10 men to a team. 
The first race between these two clubs took place on Saturday, Jan. 
25, on the grounds of the Boiling Springs Club, the home club on that 
occasion winning by 7 breaks. In to-day's contest the tables were 
turned, the Endeavors winning by the small margin of 2 targets to the 
good. The closeness of the contest at the finish was most exciting, 
the tenth man on each team having to go out and shoot his 25 ta r gets 
with the score a tie. These two were Carl von Lengerke and Neaf 
Apgar; Carl won for his team by breaking 24 out of 25 tp Apgar's 22. 
The first squad consisted of Collins. Greiff and McPeek, of the Eu- 
deavors, and McAlpin, Huck and Krebs, of the Boiling Springs. The 
trio from the home club led their opponents from Rutherford by 10 
breaks, Collins goiDg straight until he got to his 24th target; Huck 
was high for his team with 22. The next squad was: Edwards, Creve- 
ling and Corson for the .Endeavors; Lenone, Simpson and Hebbard 
for the Boiling Springs. Id this squad the Boiling Springs trio picked 
up 9 targets on the Endeavor men, breaking 56 to 47; this left the En- 
deavors with a margin of 1 to go on. The third squad was made up 
as follows: Piercy, Fletcher and Ingram for the Endeavors; Paul, 
Wise and James for the Boiling Springs team. The scoring in this 
squad was very even, the visiting trio breaking 52 to their opponents' 
51, thus tieing the score with only one more man on each team to 
shoot. As stated above, Carl von Lengerke broke 24 to Apgar's 22 
and won for the home team by 2 breaks. In this part of the team 
race occurred one of those peculiarities which everybody *ho has shot 
many targets at unknown angles will have noticed time and again: 
One man in a squad will go right down the line, getting straightaway 
after straightaway, while the man immediately behind him gets a 
rasping right-quarterer. Carl got a little the best of the targets, it is 
true, but he broke his hard ones just the same. We think the fact 
that he did get so many straightaways should be attributed to the 
chances at this style of shooting, and not to the trapper's favoring 
him, as was suggested; the element of luck in unknown-angle shoot- 
ing renders such suggestions possible, but as a matter of fact coinci- 
dences such as the above are happening all the time, but are not bo 
liable to be noticed in sweeps as in a match, especially when there is, 
so much interest in the finish as, there was in to-day's race: 
Eight sweepstakes, all at 10 targets, unknown angles, were also de- 
cided during the afternoon, the scores in all these events being given

south side's saturday. 
Feb. 8 — The shoot Saturday afternoon saw the destruction of nearly 
1,200 targets. Marked improvement in the shooting of some of the 
new members was noticed, with an exception in the case of Mr. Fol- 
som, who was handicapped by using a new gun, this being the first 
time he had tried it. That the gun was all right was proved by the 
fact that Luedecke shot it in the team race, scoring 22, The team 
race of course was the event of the afternoon, as it usually ia; 
Thomas's side won with a lot to spare. The work of the second 
squad was particularly noticeable, being almost a model in time, 
averaging about 83 per cent., and occupying less than 15 minutes. 
Boys, if you want to shoot artificial targets, and do it quick, South 
Side can "take the cake" around this part of the country. Scores in 
to-day's events were:
