Opening of the Keystone Grounds. 
It was a jolly crowd of experts, amateurs, novices and friends of 
both who took advantage of the hospitality of the Keystone Shooting 
League and attended their inaugural invitation tournament on July 25 
and 26 The League grounds are at Holmesburer Junction, Fa., and 
are considered among the finest in the country. They are embellished 
with a $1,500 cliib house, furnished with all the modern improvements. 
The grounds have all the latest appliances for both live birds and tar- 
get shooting. 
The opening affair was a grand success, and the club dispensed 
refreshments— both liquid and solid— with a lavish hand. The man- 
agement was in the hands of A. J. Rust, A. L. Lumb, H. David, J. W. 
Tredway and W. H. Wolsteneroft. The second day was ladies 1 day, 
and among those who visited the grounds were Mrs. E. D; Miller, Mrs. 
M. F. Lindsley, Mrs A. J. Rust, Mrs. A. L. Lumb, Mrs Jas. Wolsten- 
eroft, Mrs. W. H. Wolsteneroft, Mrs. W. H. Pack, Mrs. Geo. Pack, Mrs. 
J. F. Kleinz, Mrs. J. Tredway, Miss May Rust, Miss Morris, Miss Hand- 
ley, Miss K. Jackson, Miss M. Jackson, Mrs. J. Hack, Mrs. H. Thur- 
man, Mrs. P. J. Rus+, Mrs. W. G. Rust, Mrs. Wolf, Mrs. E. David, Mrs. 
H, David, Miss Hack, 51 rs. Betz, Miss Mays, Miss Swope, Mrs. De Motte. 
Miss Latune, Mrs. A. Coney, Mis'* A. Kleinz and Miss Johnson. A band 
of music kept the party in a lively humor. 
The League presented a pretty souvenir to all the participants in 
the two days' shooting. In accepting his souvenir, Mr. Bartlett (who 
gave a remarkable exhibition of fancy shooting), said that he had 
never in his whole experience at gun club tournaments, been the re- 
cipient of such lavish and hearty hospitality. The kindness of John 
T. Bailey & Co , in loaning two large tents for refreshment purposes, 
was fully appreciated. The scores follow ■

"Mamaluke's" Weir City Notes. 
Weir City, Kans , July 26.— Inclosed I hand you scores made by 
members of the Business Men's Gun Club at this place in their medal 
shoot. This is the first shoot held here in which our handicap of birds 
allowed proved to be wholly out of joint. Kirk, who won the. first 
gold medal, as shown below, made his appearance for the fifth time at 
the traps, and as he started out at the rate of about 2 in 25, the handi- 
capper thought that 10 birds allowed would about make him "in it " 
He was strictly "in it," as he killed 23, which with his allowance made 
his score hard to beat from the scratch. The club intends now to 
match him against Rolla O. Heikes for the world's championship, but 
we are afraid that Heikes won't meet him. Below is the score: 
Mcllhany 1111111111111111111101110—23

At the "Soo." 
Grand Rapids, Mich., July 22.— I had the pleasure during the past 
week of refereeing a match at 125 targets a side between T. J. Graham 
and D. A. Aitkin, both of Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. The match was for 
$50 a side, and the score will show that the boys in the north end of 
our State are able to "snuff 'em out" in pretty good style. 
The Gun Club at the Sault is arranging for a tournament to be 
given the last week in August, and will add $400 in cash to the purses. 
Owing to the fact that the Sault is one of the points of greatest inter- 
est in the United States, there will no doubt be a very large attend? 
ance. The trip from Detroit, Chicago and all the Lake cities by water 
is one of the most pleasant. Will send you exact dates of the shoot 
in a few days. 
Following is score of match above mentioned:

It will give us great pleasure to forward a copy of our catalogue to any 
one who "goes a-fishing." Some people charge for their catalogues, some 
charge for the postage, some charge for both. We are more than willing to 
give away our catalogues and prepay postage on them. No angler, after 
looking at the catalogue, can resist buying from us or from our trade- 
customers all the fishing-tackle he can afford to pay for. That is where we 
get back a good deal more than cost of catalogue and postage.
