Wilmington, N. C. 
Wilmington, N. C, Dec. 1.— The tournament held here on Nov. 29 
and 30 was a thorough success. It was held under the auspices of the 
Eastern Dog and Game Protective Association, a local organization 
composed of a hundred or more members, the most active of whom 
in the management of this sboot were H. McL. Green, President; J. 
, H. Berry, Vice-President; L. D. Pritchard, Secretary ;C. 0. Covington, 
Treasurer; Tournament committee, H. L. Green, R H. Grant, D. Mc- 
Eachern, J. C. Lodor; Finance Department, W. A. Wilson; Scorers, V. 
M. Kobinson, W. P. Boney and Jas. H. Taylor; Judges, T. L. Graham 
and E. J. Bridges. 
This was the first tournament ever given by this'organization, yet it 
was managed fully as well as any tournament I ever attended, there 
not being the least thing to cause a participant to complain. Every- 
thing ran smoothly and every shooter present -was congenial and 
bright. 
The afternoon before the shoot was passed by the writer in com- 
pany with the popular gentlemen, Messrs. A, W. DuBray, represent- 
ing the great Parker Gun, and T. K. Keller, of New York city, in be- 
coming acquainted with local shooters and enjoying a little practice 
at the traps. 
The beautiful new steel pigeon gun shown by Mr. DuBray attracted 
a great deal of attention and made new friends for the Parker gun. 
The shooting qualities of the Parkers used by Meesrs. Worthen and 
Fonda waB noticed by all. 
Among those present were the old reliable Col. J. T. Anthony and 
A. E. Stokes, of Charlotte, N. C. ; Messrs. Bicaise, Steck, Wohltman, 
Post, Swan, Peterman, Worthen, Costello and others of the Palmetto 
Club, of Charleston, N. C. ; E. L. Pemberton, H. M. Pemberton and D. 
Lilly, of Fayette Club, of Fayetteville, N. C. ; Dr. Moore and Captain 
Sims, of Wilson, N. 0.; J. L. Fonda, of Greensboro, N. B., and a num- 
ber of shooters from nearby points ; also Mr. Collins, representing the 
DuPont smokeless powder, and Mr. Thomas, representing the Trois- 
dorf . Each evening the shooters all met at the headquarters of the 
management and were entertained until a late hour. When the last 
gun was fired three cheers were given for the E. D. and G. P. A.

The Holiday Week at Albany. 
Albany, N. Y., Dec. 20 — The past week has been so proline in shoot- 
ing events hereabouts that our own and neighboring shooters found 
themselves drawn into an unusual whirl of excitement with the 
pigeon, chicken and turkey shooting. 
The first event of the week was the live bird tournament of the 
Loudenville (a surburb of our city) Gun Club, which was held last 
Tuesday, Nov. 27. The attendance at this tournament was fairly good, 
but the assemblage would undoubtedly have been increased had it not 
been for the gale that raged the night before and led many shooters 
to believe that the roaring ot old Boreas presaged the coming of a 
heavy storm. It was therefore with, no small satisfaction that the 
undaunted ones who ventured forth in the sullen quiet of the gray 
morning that followed that dismal night, found a later transition to 
the soft and sunny, though haze-bedimmed features of a typical 
Indian summer day. 
One capital feature of the preparations that had been made for the 
comfort of visitors at the Loudenville shoot wan a shooting lodge 
which had actually been erected for this especial occasion — the ground 
not being the regular field of the club— and a pot-bellied stove, which 
with a good coal fire, disseminated comfort in chunks. The front of 
the shanty was fitted with sash, well glazed, and seated at the broad 
shelf which Berved as a table for the clerical force the Forest and 
Stream correspondent, who acted as official scorer, performed his 
work in almost luxurious ease. In the group of shooters that found 
shelter under the lowly roof were many of the shining lights of the 
eastern league clubs, the West End and the Forester Gun Clubs of 
this city being well represented; there were also present shooters 
from Troy, New Scotland. Clarksville, Granville, and Rupert, Vt. 
The shooting grouDd was admirably laid out in a fine stretch of level 
meadow, perfectly adapted for the purposes of the occasion, and the 
shooting was very general in its excellence, its merits being marked by 
the fine wing-powers of the pigeons furnished for the sport. 
The shooting was boomed along on the squad system, and this 
enabled the boys to shoot out thirteen sweeps and to clear the coops 
of over 400 pigeons. It would be presumption to expect space for the 
detailed scores of these events in the trap columns of Forest and 
Scream, overcrowded as they must be from the plethora of the re- 
ports of the late holiday shoots; so I will simply say that the Bhoot- 
ing was so general in its excellence that scarcely any one failed to get 
a bit of the purses, while a few were fairly good winners, and, best of 
all, there were no kickers nor soreheads. 
THANKSGIVING DAY SPORTS. 
There never wa 1 * a holiday in this region where there were so many 
shoots "on" as last Thursday. Taking the near-by ones into consid- 
eration I will first mention the pigeon shoot of the exclusive Forester 
Gun Club, about a dozen members of which shot a 25-bird competition 
in the morning, making the usual excellent scores which the fine shots 
of this club are capable of, and gaining by thi exposure to the keen air 
and in the exhilaration of a contest, where, good fellowship rather 
than stake money is the life of the meet, that glow of good feeling 
that naturally gives zest to a Thauksgiving dinner. 
On the western outskirt of the town, at Job Shafer's Hotel, close to 
the grounds of the West End Gun Club, the riflemen were given a 
chance for the display of their skill, and many a lordly gobbler and big 
Brahma went down at long and short range by the good work of the 
small bore chaps who persistently pegged away from dawn till dark 
The other shoots that caught some of our marksmen were: At Wit- 
beck's Hotel, McKownville, there were chickens and pigeons to try 
the powers of the guns and gunners; at Morrisville, a few mUes out 
on the Schenectady road, via the beautiful drive through Loudenville, 
the same attractions were offered, and at Karner, a station on the N. 
Y. Central Railroad, eight miles from here, the rural riflemen found 
a day's pleasure in an old fashioned turkey shoot. 
SWENY— SANDERS. 
The final event of the week was an exhibition match, which took 
place at the grounds of the Ridgefield Athletic Association on 
Friday morning. This event took the form of a pigeon shooting 
match between Harry R. Sweny and John B Sanders, two of the 
youngest, but at the same time mo3t skillful of our live bird shots. 
The weather conditions of the day of the match were of the worst de- 
scription, the wind sweeping across the elevated and exposed plateau 
of Ridgefield with resistless fury and driving the pellets of snow that 
came with the squalls into the face, stinging like nettles. As the affair 
had received no advance notice from the city press in regard to the 
dates it was not generally known where it would take place; conse- 
quently there were only a hundred or so of poor shivering mortals 
who stood exposed to the cutting November blasts for over two hours 
to see a match that was not distinguished by very brilliant scores. 
The conditions of the contest were 100 birds per man, American 
Shooting Association rules to govern. There was no money up. the 
match being made simply to determine which was the better man of 
two of our -'young bloods" of the League. The pigeons were simply 
clippers, requiring the quickest kind of work to get on to them effec- 
tively; and while both tne chappies were prompt and accurate with 
the guns they shot in hard luck from start to finish, the gale carrying 
bird after bird with its death wound over the boundary. Sweny 
actually killed 91 birds that were gathered, and Sanders did as much 
with 87, but the inexorable boundary rule cut their totals down to 81— 
71, as will be seen in the appended detailed score:

Mr. T. B". Greer, one of our oldest most experienced pigeon shooters 
was the referee in the above match, Forkst and Stream's correspon- 
dent official scorer. 
The next event of importance of pigeon shooting circles will be the 
open tournament to be gotten up by Mr. Henry A. Kratz Secretary 
of the West End Gun Club, well known as a popular shooter on the 
league circuit. The friends of Mr. Kratz intend that this event shall 
take the form of a testimonial, and there will undoubtedly be a fine 
turnout of local and league shooters generally. Over 500 birds will be 
guaranteed; shooters from all quarters will be invited and nobody 
barred. The date is not yet settled, but it will probably be in the third 
week of the present mouth. 
The league clubs are already stirring for the coming year's events - 
the West End Gun Club, of Albany, claiming Feb. 22. and the Canaio- 
harie Gun Club, May 30, for tournaments in 1895. 
Horace B. Derby. 
New Utrecht Gun Club. 
There's very little fun in shooting live birds on such a day as 
Dec. 1 was. Not a breath of air was stirring, while a steady rain 
made everything decidedly wet and uncomfortable outside the club 
house at Woodlawn, L. I.. The natural result was a poor turnout of 
shooters to take part in the club handicap sweep at 50 live birds, $35 
entrance. Although three or four more members had signified their 
intention of putting in an appearance, as well as their $35, a scant 
half-dozen was all that answered to their names when President Sykes 
called the roll. These were Dr. Wynn, one of the veterans of the 
club; Capt. A. W. Money; L. T. Davenport, fresh from a three weeks' 
'hunt with the Turtle Lake Club; C. Furgueson, Jr., C. T. "Pennington" 
and T. W. Morfey. All save Pennington were Class A men, and from 
the way that gentleman is handling his gun it looks as if it won't, be 
very long before he gets put back to 29 or 30yds. 
The birds were ordinary, as was only to be expected from the 
weather. New Utrecht birds as a rule are good and strong flyers but 
Saturday was enough to dampen any bird's ambition for freedom 
Still, they were just that class of birds which produce ciphers in the 
score unless a shooter is careful every time he goes to the trap. It 
will happen on such occasions that a man draws duffer after duffer 
until he becomes careless and is caught napping by a corker sand- 
wiched in here and there; or he may get two or three fast birds and 
become keyed up to concert pitch; the next time he goes to the trap 
he gets a slow quartering bird and misses it clean on account of its 
very easiness. Morfey's eighteenth bird was a good sample of this 
kind of a miss. 
Dr. Wynn made some excellent kills with his second barrel, but per- 
haps the honors for the most effective placing of the second shell 
really belonged to Pennington, who scored several very brilliant 
second barrel bills. It was a close race all the way through, and Capt 
Money had but to kill his last bird to tie Davenport. The bird, a fast 
dark blue driver, got away very hard hit, the combination of a blue 
bird, dark fence and bad light being too much for the Captain's "poor 
eyesight." Furgueson was clean off his form, but made some good 
runs of 13 straight and 16 straight kills, his misses coming as usual in 
bunches. Fast rising birds was the cause of bis downfall on every 
occasion; be undershot them undoubtedly. 
In the sweeps after the main event, his son, 11-year-old Conny 
gave his father an object lesson as to how to kill live birds. Conny 
and his 16-gauge Francotte were answerable for the death of 24 
pigeons (one dead out of bounds) out of 25 shot at 1 In the last miss- 
and-out Conny was still in the ring with but one shell left at the end 
of the 12th round, so was compelled to withdraw, taking his ratio of 
the spoils. This event was not decided until it grew so dark that it 
was impossible to see even a white bird; consequently Dr. Wynn and 
Morfey divided when each had missed a bird that fluttered off in the 
gloom of the night. President Sykes filled the onerous position of 
referee entirely satisfactorily to all; his task, owing to the conditions 
of the weather was by no means a pleasant one. 
Morfey's red setter Eagle and the club's curly coated black English 
retriever shared the duties of retrieving the dead birds. By their work 
and by quick trapping on the part of the club's trappers, who must 
have been soaked to the skin, the time occupied in shooting at the 300 
birds in the main event, was about three hours and a quarter. The 
first 100 were shot at in one minute less than an hour, and 150 had 
been trapped in 93 minutes; the last 150 took somewhat longer as the 
weather grew decidedly worse and birds in consequence refused to fly 
several times until flagged. Scores:

THE HOLIDAY CUP. 
On Thanksgiving Day this club had a good attendance of members, 
16 shooters contesting for the Holiday cup. Four class B men tied for 
the trophy with scores of 9 out of 10, G. W. Conlston winning on the 
shoot-off by killing 2 straight. The birds were a fine lot of strong 
flyers hence the absence of a straight score in the cup contest. For 
the same reason the miss-and-outs were very quickly decided; the 
first with 11 entries was won by Morfey with 4 straight; No. 2 with 10 
entries went to Morfey and Wright with 4 Btraight; No. 3 with 8 
entries was divided between Morfey and Capt. Kennard with 3 
straight; No. 4 and 5 were won respectively by Hopper and Morfey 
with 4 straight. During the day 522 birds were trapped in all the 
events, including the Furgueson— Hege man match. 
That the boys were there to shoot is shown by the number of entries 
in the 7-bird and 5-bird sweeps. In the 7-bird event there were 15 
entries, first money being divided between Deacon and Morfey who 
killed all their birds. The 5-bird race had 14 entries; Deacon and C. 
Furgueson, Jr., dividing first money with straight scores. The details 
of the cup race and of the different sweepstake events are given

FURGUESON AN EASY WINNER. 
One of the features of the day's sport was a 50-bird race, $25 a side, 
between C. Furgueson, Jr., and A. A. Hegeman. An extra fast lot of 
birds had been procured and ciphers ruled very numerous in conse- 
quence, no less than 34 out of the 100 being scored as "lost!" Fur- 
gueson with the low score of 38 out of 50 was easily the victor, his op- 
ponent losing exactly 22 birds, thus leaving Furgueson a winner by 
10 birds. The amount of soft coal burned by the scouts during the 
progress of the match can hardly be realized; they had lots of sport 
on the outside of the fence. Score:
