FOREST AND STREAM, 
[ftov. 10, 1894. 
The Townsend Benefit Shoot. 
Tuesday, Oct. 30, saw a gathering of sportsmen at Marion, N. J., 
' who hart come together to shoot targets at Al. Heritage's grounds, 
and also to show their appreciation of the work done for i rap-shooting 
by Mr 0 H. Townsend, late trap editor of Foskst and Stream. Had 
the weather been more favorable, the attendance would undoubtedly 
have been larger, but the appearance and feel of the day was against 
it. It looked cold and chilly, and it felt damp and raw. "Uncle Al's" 
stove, chowder and other comforts went very well under the circum- 
stances. Beside the programmed events special merchandise races 
were made up. Miss A nnie Oakley had donated a handsome table 
lamp, with an onyx stand, which has gone to Oneida county, N, Y., 
S Glover winning it with 2S out of 25. Major Taylor's book, " Ameri- 
can Field Trial and Bench Show Records." is now at South Orange, 
N. J , W. N. Drake having won it. The American E. C. Powder Com- 
yany, through Capt A. W. Money, donated several pounds of their 
powder, while M F. Lindsley also gave 100 cans of his American Wood 
powder. W. Fred Quimby, also a promoter of this meeting, donated 
1,000 empire targets, while other merchandise prizes were also 
received by the committee of raanagment, which was made up as fol- 
lows: Al. Heritage, W. Fred. Quimby, M. F. Lindsley and T. H. Keller. 
"Uncle Al" Heritage gave a cash donation of $40 to be shot for, $20 in 
each of two events, besides giving the use of his grounds free of all 
charge. An interesting and amusing match duriDg the afternoon was 
a race at 15 targets between "Uncle Al," ex-chief of the Fire Depart- 
ment of Jersey City, and Nat Astfalk, chief of the Elizabeth Fire De- 
partment, in which the ex chief came out ahead by no less than four 
targets. Among those present from a distance whose names do not 
appear on the score sheets, was Capt. George Taggart, field captain 
of the West Newburtth Gun and Rifle Club. The scores given below

Second Day. 
Owing to the heavy rain, which did not cease falling until afternoon, 
the attendance at the shooting grounds was very small. No attempt 
was made to carry out the programme, it being decided to postpone 
the shoot until Thursday of this week, Nov. 8. Those shooters who 
did put in an appearance during the afternoon shot several small races, 
finishing up with a team race. Scores:

State Championship of Iowa. 
Des Moines, la , Oct. 31. — The match between John GeorgesoD, of 
Kelly, and H. J. Wilson, of Emmettsburg, for State championship 
medal and a purse of $100, took place yesterday on the grounds of the 
Highland Gun Club of this city. The contest was at 25 live birds, 15 
single targets, from five unknown traps, and 5 pairs targets, Ameri- 
can Association rules. 
The weather was cold with some rain and a strong wind from left to 
right across the traps. The birds were an average lot; the targets 
were standard keystones and were thrown about 50yds. The shooting 
of both Wilson and Georgeson was good considering the day. This 
medal was first won by G. P. Ohristianson, of Randall, at the Iowa 
Btate tournament, held at Clear Lake, la., 1892, and has to be won five 
consecutive times to become the property of the holder and is subject 
to a challenge every 90 days. The challenge must be accompanied by 
$50 and the holder of medal has to put up a like sum and medal. Had 
Mr. Georgeson defeated Mr. Wilson the medal would have been his 
property, as he has defeated Mr. Christianson, of Randall, Mr. Will- 
iams, of Kelly, Mr. Chingrin, of Fonda, and Mr Hamaker, of Randall. 
There is no doubt but Mr. Wilson will have to keep in good shooting 
trim should he succeed in holding this medal against all comers, as 
there are quite a number who think they can win it. Score:

Live Birds at Des Moines, la. 
Des Moines, la., Oct. 30.— Below are given the scores made in a fifty - 
live bird practice shoot held recently on the Highland Gun Club 
grounds of this city. The birds were a fair lot and quite a number 
fell dead out of bounds. Five of the contestants used E. C. powder, 
two Schultze, one Du Pont's smokeless, one Troisdorf. Five used Win- 
chester Leader shells, seven used L. O. Smith guns, one a Parker and 
one a Burgess repeater. Mr. S. A. Tucker shot his $400 Parker In 
great form and killed his birds in good shape, and if he keeps on im- 
proving will make it warm for some of the champions. Mr. Damon, 
representing the Burgess Gun Co., has had but very little experience 
in trap-sbooting but has improved his scores twenty-five per cent, in 
the last three weeks; he will be heard from in the future. C. M. 
Grim, the World's Fair champion, was in good form, and with his 
Smith gun and E. C. powder made the high score. "Waruf Irwin was 
a little off, but forty-four is an average score; he can do better. 
Georgeson, Kirsher, Perkins and Rice did not shoot up to their aver- 
age, not having had any practice on live birds for some time. The 
weather was warm and pleasant. Mr, C. O. Perkins had a fine lunch 
sent to the grounds for the shooters. Mr. Tucker said he would like 
to stay on the club grounds a week, so you may know all had a pleas- 
ant day, for "Tuck's" judgment is second to none, when it comes to 
shooting and eating. Scores: 
Practice shoot, 50 live birds. tOyds. rise, American Association rules:

Hill Beats Class. 
Tbenton, N. J., Oct. 29 —The shoot which took place at Yardville on 
Friday, Oct. 26, was one of those pretty affairs wbich occur occasion- 
ally during a season. Frank Class and Timmons were the first on the 
grounds, and were enjoying a quiet little shoot of their own, when the 
gate opened and a crowd of snooters came in. Among them were 
Brewer, Morfey, Eddie Hill and Giberson. It was not long before they 
were at work, and several sweepstakes were shot off before dinner. 
Thb competitors were Class, Timmons, Brewer. Morfey, Zwirlein, Hill 
Giberson. Timmons soon began to make an impression and before 
the day was out was known as "the man with the terrible left." He 
certainly used his second barrel with telling effect, and did very fine 
work all day. About 12:30 all retired to do justice to Charlie Zwir'lein's 
fine dinner. It was served royally, and to the great satisfaction of 
Brewer, there was plenty of it. I say to Brewer's satisfaction, but it 
was to ours also, for Brewer was so much engaged in devouring two 
chickens, 41bs. of roast beef, half a bushel of potatoes, as well as 
other things too numerous to mention, that he had no time to talk. 
Immediately after dinner the shooting commenced again with two 
more sweepstakes, every ono participating as before. This brings us 
to the affair of the day, a match for $100 a side between Frank Class 
and Eddie Hill. 
The birds, which were a little slow in rising in the morning, rose 
almost with the spiinging of the trap. Eddie Hill made some sur- 
prising shots, but did not seem as deliberate as Class, who also did 
some fine shooting. Hill won by one bird. Every one was loud in the 
praises of Charlie Zwirlein's dog Nig, which retrieved at the trap. It 
is certainly a wonderful dog and seemed to be perfectly fresh, although 
he had been working all the day before the shoot at Dexter Park.

Work Outshoots Brewer. 
On Tuesday, Oct. 30, Capt. J. L. Brewer, went to Bergen Point, N. 
J., to shoot a practice race nt 100 live birds on the Carteret Club's 
grounds with Mr. George Work, an amateur who has shown time and 
again that when he strikes his gait he is capable of doing as good 
work at the traps as any man living. If Capt. Brewer expected an 
easy race the result shows that the future opponent of Carver and 
Elliott had to kill his last 52 straight to prevent being distanced. Mr. 
Work's record in this match is the more remarkle as he has not been 
shooting live birds for some time and consequently was supposed to 
be out of practice. In Captain Brewer's own words the story of the 
race can best be told: "It was the prettiest race I ever shot. The 
bird3 were really a good lot and a breeze diagonally across the traps 
from right to left helped them. It made no difference to Mr. Work 
what sort of birds he got, he killed his hard ones just as surely as he 
downed his easy ones; his 'time' was excellent. like clockwork. I be- 
lieve he would have gathered 87 of his birJs in a 21yds. boundary. 
When I Btarted in I didn't know what I'd gone up against and was a 
little careless, letting two easy incomers fool me; but when I found that 
I was in a shooting match for sure, I pulled myself together and kept 
right after him, thinking to myself, 'Now, my friend if you make a 
skip I've got you,' but— the skip never came, and he heat me out by 
one bird." Score:
