FOREST AND STREAM. 
[May 16 1896. 
The Interstate at Birmingham, Ala. 
Birmingham, Ala., April 80 —The Interstate shoot held Here yester- 
day and to day was a thorough success, being the first of the kind 
ever held here. Trap-shooting is on the boom, and the members of the 
local rod and gun club, under whose auspices the shoot was held, are 
most enthusiastic on the sport. 
The grounds are beautiful ones, and are located on the line of the 
East Lake Railway. They are consequently by no means easy of 
access. The weather during the shoot was wretched, rain coming 
down in torrents all the time. Yet, notwithstanding such a drawback, 
we had as high as twenty-five entries in one event, So pleased are the 
boys with the result of this shoot that they talk of running one them- 
selves next fall. Spectators, too, turned out in good numbers to see 
the shoot. The visiting shooters received royal treatment at the 
hands of Mr. B. H. Baugh, of the Birmingham Arms Company, and 
also at the hands of Henry S. Going, secretary of the club. 
The scores of both days are:

Burnside Gun Club. 
Burnside P. O., La., May 4. — The Burnside Gun Club held its regu- 
lar weekly shoot to-day. A short while before the first event was 
shot five quail flew up from a neighboring sugar cane field and settled 
down just in front of the traps and bid themselves in a patch of clover. 
Several of us walked out and flushed them up; they seemed quite 
tame. Most of our quail have paired off, and the outlook for quail 
shooting next season is very good. During the close season we have 
to be content with targets. 
Our club is in a very healthy condition. We bave six acres fenced 
in, new expert traps, new electric pulls, good shooting floor and a 
comfortable shed in case of rain. The following events were shot dur- 
ing the afternoon : 
Events: 1 3 3 4 5 6 7 Events: 1 3 3 4 5 6 7
