SING AC GUN CLUB, 
May IS.— Everything was in first-class order at Bunn's grounds to- 
day. A large tent was pitched on the grounds for the comfort of the 
shooters, and a carriage was waiting at the depot to meet all trains. 
The ball was started a-rolling with a 10-bird match between Morfey 
(31yd8.) and Hopper 029yds.), in which the former had the pleasure of 
paying for the birds. Following this was a 5-bird match, for $5 a side. 
be tween Lee and Post, which the former won with two birds to 
spare. 
The birds were a great lot, as can be s«en by the number lost out of 
bounds. Hopper could not hold his gun to his shoulder, this being his 
first shoot since breaking his arm. Post was shooting a clay-bird 
load, which accounts for his goose eggs. The scores were as fol- 
lows:

Kansas Live-Bird Championship. 
Weir City. Kan., May 9.— The third contest for the State champion- 
ship trophy occurred here to-day between C. H. Calhoun and W. W. 
Mcllhany, both of this place. Our readers will doubtless remember 
that Mcllhany first won the trophy in the open contest which took 
place last October. He was in turn defeated by E. W. Hoffman, 
of Galena, and afterward Hoffman forfeited the trophy to Cal- 
houn. 
The match of to day was eagerly looked forward to, as each of the 
contestants has a hose of admirers here and in the immediate vicinity. 
The weather was fine, and the high wind that was blowing was decid- 
edly favorable to the birds. Calhoun was the first to go to the score, 
and started in with a miss. Mcllhany killed his bird and at once 
assumed the lead, which he gradually increased, and at the end of the 
race was four birdB ahead. Mcllhany used his first barrel with much 
better effect than Calhoun, who had to rely principally on his second 
to score. 
Mr. G. W. Sergeant, of Joplin, Mo., acted as referee, while the fol- 
lowing were also present from Joplin, Mo. : J. A. Cragin, Geo. Steven- 
son, Tim Molloy, A. Dixon and C. Dixon; Taylor Cox, Carl Junction, 
Mo.; B. C. Best, Columbus, Kan. 
The conditions of the match are 50 live birds per man, A. S. A. rule?, 
challenger to put up $50 against the trophy. Winner to take trophy 
and money. The scores tell the story:

Oritani Field Club's Tournament. 
The first annual tournament of the Oritani Field Club was held on 
its grounds at Hackensack on Friday and Saturday, May 15 and 16. 
Although the weather on both days was all that could be desired, the 
attendance was very small, only 12 shooters taking part on the first 
day, while 25 tried conclusions on Saturday. Despite this, 15 events 
were shot on the last day, instead of 10, a« originally intended. 
The shooting was at empire targets, known traps and unknown 
angles, a style with -which the club members are unfamiliar, their 
shooting being solely at known traps and angles. Louis Schortemeier 
carried off the honors on the first day, whil« Morfey did the best work 
on Saturday, closely followed by Henry. The scores were as follows:

Ohio Trap-Shooters' League. 
Dayton, O.— The Buckeye Gun Club, of Day+on, again extends the 
hand of fraternity to the trap-shooters of Ohio and cordially welcomes 
them to the annual tournament of the Ohio Trap-Shooters' League on 
June 9, 10 and 11. 
Owing to a general demand for later dates, the executive committee 
of the League, in connection with the Buckeye Gun Club, changed the 
time for our 1896 meeting to one which we have reason to believe will 
be more acceptable to the League members and more conducive to a 
large attandance. We are prepared and will make welcome all who 
may come. The Buckeye Club will add $200 to the purses, and their 
grounds will be equipped in a strictly up-to-date manner. The rules of 
the League are strictly favorable to the amateur shooter, hence a 
large attendance of this class is expected. 
We have every assurance that the 1896 tournament will be the most 
successful of any held by the Ohio State League.

. The Hazard Powder Company's Tournament. 
Special to Forest and Stream. 
Cincinnati, O., May 19.— From present indications the Hazard Pow- 
der Company is going to have a very successful tournament. This is 
what is known as preliminary day, but there are at least from fifty to 
sixty shooters in the city. This number should be doubled at to-mor- 
row's shoot. R. S. Waddell and his brother Fred have got everything 
in perfect trim, and the cashier's department will be handled in a 
manner that is bouDd to satisfy both shooters and newspaper men 
Paul North and Jack Parker are both in town, Jack, of course, assist" 
ing-in running the Blue Rock traps. The weather is rather overcast, 
but there seems every likelihood of a warm and fine week. Summing 
up the condition of affairs in brief, the Hazard Powder Company's 
shoot promises extremely well. Edward Banks.
