Tx*ap Around Buffalo. 
NORMS VERSUS B. F. SMITH. 
Buffalo, N. Y., Feb. 5. — B. F. Smitb, of Audubon Park, and Norris, 
of this city, shot a couple of 100 target races to-day and broke even, 
each winning one. They then shot at 25 more targets to see who was 
to blame and Smith proved that it was Norris by breaking 19 to 16. 
Each race for $3 a side, loser to pay for the targets. Norris made a 
good run in the last half of the first race, scoring 25 straight in the 
third series of 25 and 24 out of the last 25, making 49 out of the last 50

AT EAST AURORA. 
Feb. 6.- Quite a large delegation intended to go to East Aurora, 
N. Y., this morning, but when the time for our train, 8:30, came, it 
was pouring down with rain, so all turned back but myself. I had a 
capital time— everybody does at Frank Kelsey's— and made some new 
friends, among -them Mr. Pope, from Olean, N. Y. The scores made

AT AUDUBON PARK. 
Feb. 7.— The Porter-Soergel match, set for this day, did not come 
off, Porter being at home sick. Hankins and B. F. Smith shot at 15 
live birds, Smith winning by killing his 15 to Hankins's 13. The scores 
were good ones, as a strong wind was blowing. This wind made the 
targets hard to hit when it came to shooting at them instead of live 
birds. There is a possibility of a long race being arranged between 
Smith and Hankins in the near future. The scores in to-day's events 
were as below:

THE AUDUBON'S WEEKLY SHOOT. 
Feb. S— Twenty-three members of the Audubon Gun Club put in an 
appearance at Audubon Park this afternoon with the intention of tak- 
ing part in the regular weekly shoot of the club. 0, S. Burkhardt, 
Forrester and A. Heinold carried off the honors in to-day's events 
The boys are practicing hard with a view to giving the Rochester, N. 
Y., shooters a still harder rub than they gave them when they visited 
Audubon Park and carried home some Buffalo scalps. The ground 
to-day was covered with snow to the depth of 4 or 5in., but the air was 
mild; taken altogether t he conditions were not unfavorable ones for 
target-shooting. Scores:

Boston Gun Club. 
Boston, Feb. 12.— The Boston Gun Club held another successful 
shoot this afternoon, about a dozen members appearing at the score 
in the sixth prize contest at Wellington. The afternoon was decidedly 
breezy and no one complained of lack of air. The dippers and awish- 
ers, according to which way the wind veered, served only to make it 
interesting, particularly when up for pairs. Mr. Spencer put in a 
splendid 18, closely seconded by Mr. Sawyer with 17. Scores tabulated

Airy Lou Hart's 'Programme, 
The "general information circular" issued by Lou Erhardt, mention 
of which was made last week, contains a lot of information that will 
be of interest to those who purpose attending the shoot to be given by 
Airy Lou Hart on April 14-17. The title of the shoot is "Second Man- 
ufacturers' Amateur Tournament," and means strictly what it savs 
the amateurs being well looked after. The programme will be mod- 
eled somewhat as follows: 4 amateur events, 20 targets, $1 entrance 
4 prizes as follows: 1st prize, manufacturer's donation, cash or a gun 
ranging in price from $20 to a bammeriess ejector; 2d prize. $15 in 
cash; 3d and 4th prizes are respectively $10 and $5 in cash. In addi- 
tion to the above there are also 4 open events of 20 targets, S3 en- 
trance, $25 added to each purse. One thousand dollars in cash prizes 
will be distributed during the tournament in addition to the purses 
In the circular Erhardt says: 
"This may be changed some, if sufficient sbooters request it, before 
programme is issued. We may also add a championship event 
Programme will be final. We would be pleased to have suggestions 
from those expecting to attend. We are going to give a square and 
fair shoot to suit the boys, not a few, but all. LaBt year's record 
(which you will find below) speaks for itself, and we say with pardon- 
able pride, of the hundred gentlemanly shooters present not a one 
went away dissatisfied, but each and every one spoke in the highest 
terms of the tournament and promised to be here this year, and bring 
their friends. We hope so, boys, and let us make this the banner 
amateur tournament ever held on earth. All the cracker jacks will 
be here (but will shoot in open events only), so come and meet them, 
and listen to their argument why their guns and their nitro powders, 
etc., are the best." 
The record in 1895 referred to above shows that in events 6, 7 and 8 
there were 94 entries; the lowest entries in any events were recorded 
in Nos. 14, 16 and 17, 54 each. The average for the 17 events on the 
programme waB 70, a very high average indeed as tournaments go. 
The 1896 tournament will be managed by Jack Parker, a guarantee 
tbat all will go smoothly, 
The Season at Monte Carlo. 
PRIX DES MARG"ER1TES. 
Jan. 24.— The weather to-day was dull, but without wind; the sun 
did not show himself at all this afternoon, failing to be on hand for 
the first time this season. There were 49 entries in the Prix des Mar- 
guerites, but so good were the pigeons that 22 of that number fell 
do wn in the 1st round ; the close of the 5th round found only 8 survivors 
out of the 49 starters, Mr. Dolan being among the number. The 
American killed 6 straight before retiring, M. Horodetzki (24 meters) 
ultimately winning with 9 straight; Gourgand and Maldura shot off 
the tie for second and third moneys, Gourgand winning on the 1st 
round. Scores: 
Prix des Marguerites Handicap of £40, added to a sweepstakes of 
£2 each; second received 30 per cent, of the entries, third 20 per cent. :

AN EXTRA DAT. 
Jan. 25.— To-day was an extra day on the Monte Carlo programme, 
but there were not many shooters present, as the principal event had 
only £12 added. Mr. Robinson (24 meters) killed 10 straight and won 
first money; second and third moneys were divided between M. D"0. 
Vari (27J4 meters) and M. Thome (24 meters). 
PRIX DES YIOLETTES. 
Jan. 28.— Mr. Dolan, the Philadelphian, shared first honors in to- 
pay's exent, the Prix des Violettes, with Signor Nocca. Both shooters 
killed 11 straight and then divided first and second moneys. Mr. 
Henry, an Irishman, took third money with 10 out of 11. There were 
60 entries in the event; 21 missed the first bird, 19 more retiring in the 
second round. Signor Guidicini, a three-times winner of the Grand 
Prix, made his first appearance this season; his debut was decidedly 
creditable, as he killed 8 birds before he missed, being one out of the 
four left in at the end of the eighth round. The wind was blowing 
strongly, making the birds hard to get onto. Scores: 
Prix des Violettes of £40, added to a sweepstakes of £2 each; the 
second receives 30 per cent, of the entries, the third 20 per cent. ; 60

PRIX DES LIS. 
Jan. 29.— This was another of those glorious days that has so far 
characterized the Monte Carlo season of 1895-96. The wind of yester- 
day died away during the night, leaving the air still and calm. The 
attendance at the grounds was the largest this season, while the entry 
list for the Prix des Lis Handicap showed an increase over the other 
events decided to date. The total number of entries was 65, but so 
good were the birds that the close of the 6th round settled first and 
second moneys, Mr. H. J. Roberts (heavily handicapped at 30^6 meters) 
and Signor Calari (26 meters) dividing £137 10s., first and second 
moneys. There were four ties for third money, Signor Galetti winning 
by killing his first two birds. Of the 65 shooters, 24 missed their first 
birds, 18 others (among them Mr. Dolan) dropping out in the 2d round. 
The scores:

THE GRAND PRIX DE CASINO. 
Feb. 6.— The Grand Prix began yesterday with 4 birds at 26 meters; 
there were 117 entries, 15 being absentees. This is the largest entry 
ever known at Monte Carlo. To-day saw 8 more birds shot at from 
the 27-meteis mark, three misses out. The winner was M. Journu, 
who killed all his 12 birds. Count Gajoli and M. Lo divided second 
money; third mouey was divided between Signors Colombo, Oliva and 
Calari. The Grand Prix de Casino is a sweepstake of £8 added to 
20,000 francs and an objet d'art. 
Lynchburg Gun Club. 
Lynchburg, Va., Feb. 11.— The regular weekly shoot of the club was 
held to-day. A fierce and icy cold wind raced across the grounds, 
making the shooting difficult and disagreeable. Many expressions of 
disgust, warm, loud and of sundry hues, were turned loose by the 
members at the erratic flight of the targets as they cavorted, gyrated," 
and then dodged the shot while being toyed with by the Wind. The 
warmth of the discussion somewhat tempered the chilly atmosphere 
that persistently bung around the scorer's stand, affording some little 
comfort to the gentleman with the pencil. The scores:

Baltimore Shooting Association. 
Baltimore, Md., Feb 14.— The three-days' tournament given by the 
Baltimore Shooting Association, while not up to the expectations of 
the projectors in point of attendance, proved a very enjoyable shoo 
to those who were present, and served to add another laurel to the 
long list of victories of the veteran Capt. A. W. Money. The main 
event on Wednesday, Feb. 12, was the 25-bird race, handicap, $25 en- 
trance, for the Baltimore Shooting Association's challenge cup. With 
such well-known shooters at the 80yds. markfas Brewer, Macalester 
and Fred. Hoey, and Capt. Money at 29yds., the Baltimore boys felt 
that their chances of being in the divide were very small, and conse- 
quently did not enter. Money and Brewer tied on 24 and divided the 
purse, Capt. Money also taking the cup, Brewer not being eligible for 
the same. Capt. Money was immediately challenged for the cup by 
H. A. Penrose, race to be 100 birds, $100 a side, and to take place 
within the next sixty or ninety days. The cup is a handsome loving 
cup, plain and simple in its ornamentation. The name of the winner 
is engraved on cup. If holder is challenged and cup won, name of 
second winner also is engraved thereon. From the shooting charac- 
ter of the membership of this Association, the outlook is that the cup 
will be kept continually on the move. After the cup shoot balance of 
day was devoted to sweep and miss-and-out shooting. 
On Thursday, Feb. 13, the rain descended in torrents and put a 
quietus on shooting for that day, although all preparations were 
made for a good day's sport, heedless of the rain, but the shooters 
failed to materialize. 
To-day was bright and beautiful, but cold and with about a 40-mile- 
an-hour zephyr blowing across the traps. The day was devoted to 
sweepstake shooting.

Trap Around Pittsburg. 
Pittsburg, Pa., Feb. 13.— The second race of the series of three ar- 
ranged between A. H. King, of this city, and Dr. E. M. Cundall. of 
Washington, Pa., came off to-day in wet weather. The first was shot 
on Feb. 6 at Washington, Cundall winning with a score of 89 to 87. 
To-day, at Exposition Park, King retrieved his laurels, won money for 
his friends, and sent Dr. Cundall home with the knowledge that on 
this occasion he was not in it. The scores were: King 94, Cundall 85. 
The birds were nothing extra, although there were several very good 
ones among them. King killed easy and hard ones alike, shooting in 
good time and centering his birds. Cundall lost several low-flying 
birdB, the background of alternate stretches of black mud and snow 
being very trying to him. He shot slowly, his time being very poor, 
and to this may be attributed his score of only 85. The high runs 
were: King— 22, 22, 19 and 18; Cundall— 15, 13, 12, 11 and 11. The traps 
fell as below: 
No. 1. No. 2. No. 3. No. 4. No. 5.

The Buckeyes at Home. 
Dayton, O., Feb. 10.— There was quite a little shoot on the grounds 
of the Buckeye Gun Club, of this city, on Friday last, Feb. 7. The 
account of the shoot given by the Dayton Herald tells the story, 
which runs as follows: 
"The Buckeye Gun Club had for their guests Friday Mr. R, S. Wad- 
dell, of the Du Pont Powder Company; Mr. Edwin Taylor, of the 
Laflin & Rand Powder Company; Mr. King, of the King's Powder 
Company, and Mr. M. F. Lindsley, superintendent of the King's 
Smokeless Powder Company; also Mrs. M. F. Lindsley, who did some 
very pretty work with her little 12-gauge Smith gun, breaking 33 blue- 
rocks out of a possible 50. When all were assembled on the shooting 
ground it was proposed to have a team race. Mr. C. W. Raymond 
and Rolla O. Heikes were chosen captains of their respective teams. 
Raymond's team selected as follows, with scores attached: 
"Raymond 45, McDonald 43. Waddell 44, Stark 44, Keifaber 40, King 
42-258. ' 
"Heikes's team: Heikes 50, Taylor 45, Lindsley 41, Mrs. Lindsley 33, 
Protsman 39, McCutcheon 26-234. 
"Notwithstanding the magnificent score of Heike-s's 50 straight, 
they lost the race by 14 birds. The visitors were all from Cincinnati, 
and expressed themselves very highly in the manner they were enter- 
tained; they also congratulated the club on their beautiful grounds 
and complete shooting paraphernalia." 
RIKE AND RAYMOND DEFEAT HEIKES AND M' DONALD. 
This afternoon, Feb. 10, E. D. Rike and C. M. Raymond shot a race 
against R. O. Heikes and W. S. McDonald, 100 targets per man,unknown 
angles. The scores were remarkable, considering that a heavy gale 
was blowing at the time. Rike and Raymond shot a phenomenal gait 
under the circumstances and seemed to be inspired; they did not give 
their opponents anything like a chance to win. The scores were: Rike 
£7, Raymond 86, total 193; Heikes 94, McDonald 91, total 185. Heikes 
and Raymond used Winchester repeaters, Rike an L. C. Smith ejector 
and McDonald a Lefever ejector; all four men used E, C. powder in 
Leader shells. The totals of the above four scores show that 378 out 
Of 400 targets were broken, an average of 94.5 per cent.
