Some Syracuse Scores. 
Syracuse, N. Y., March 9.— Trap-shooting in Syracuse is be- 
coming quite a fad. Scarcely a day passes but 'some of the 
local trap shots are at the traps pounding away for gloiw 
pretty race wrs decided at Mesina Springs to-day between six 
of our aspirants for the local honors of live bird shooting. The 
wind was blowing a gale from the west, right across the traps 
making difficult shooting; the birds were a fair lot, and only a 
few got away. The honors of the day were cari-ied away'by 
Geo. Mann, A. S. White and Henry Chase, who killed all of 
their birds. Scores:

Trap at Little Roch. 
Little Rock, Ark., March 14.— The fifteenth contest for the Pul 
aski County medal resulted in a win for Daley with 42 out of SO- 
quite a creditable score in such a gale as was blowing on the dav 
that the shoot took place. Irwin was very much in the race also 
as he scored 41 and kept Duley guessing as to tne outcome of the 
race. Dickinson, who is looked on as a sure winner of the troohv 
scored 39, and thus narrowed the gap between him and Dr 
French; at present he only leads the doctor two targets While 
only two more contests will take place for the trophy an intei-psr 
ing finish may be looked for. '

. WINFIELD 
Climax Club Shoot. 
Flainfield, N. J., March 13.— The members of the Climax 
Gun Club, held their regular monthly club shot at the Fanwood 
grounds this afternoon. The weather was altogether against 
good scoring, the light being bad and a strong wind blowing; 
in addition to the weather eccentricities, the targets flew high 
and low alternately making the shooting hard. The scores in 
the club shoot, given below, tells the story of that event, while 
the table shows how the boys shot in the various sweeps, the 
records of Van Dyke, Keller and Apgar being good ones. "Van 
Dyke broke 49 out of 50 in the sweeps, while Apgar got 46 and 
Keller 45 out of the same number. During the afternoon, in 
both sweeps and club race, these three shooters shot at 75 Car- 
gets, unknown angles; Keller and Van Dyke broke 67 out of 
75, an average of 89 1-3 per cent., Apgar being close behind 
with 66 out of 75, an average of 88 per cent. During the after- 
noon, in the first event after the club shoot, "Dutchy" Smith 
had the misfortune to burst his gun. There was a flaw in the 
chamber of the right barrel and "Dutchy" had been shooting 
the left barrel during the afternoon; somehow or another he 
forgot the flaw and placed a shell in the right barrel. Result: 
The tearing away of the whole upper portion of the chamber of 
the right barrel, "Dutchy" receiving luckily only a slight 
scratch from a piece of the flying steel. A curious point 
about the break is that the crimp of the shell was not 
broken, while the thin top shot wad was still in position after 
the explosion, the whole of the upper side of the shell having 
been blown away. Scores:

never presented itself until now. I shall he in New York the first 
week in April at the live-bird shoot, and should much enjoy shoot- 
ing a friendly match with him if you can arrange one for that 
week.. He shoots. I believe, with a Smith & Wesson target re- 
volver, while 1 shoot with the Colt Army, so I would like to shoot 
five strings of six shots each with each weapon. The shooting 
with the Colt to be under Massachusetts State rules, viz., all six 
chambers to be loaded at once and the six shots to be fired withm 
a time limit of one minute, one minute to be allowed between, 
scores to clean and load. I should prefer to shoot outdoors at 50 
yards, as that is a much better test of a man's skill than gallery 
work, but will leave that to Mr. Burnham. The only condition 
thac I feel strongly about is that the shooting be done with service 
charges, as the tiny charges usually used in gallerys are not so 
good a test of a man's real shooting ability. I should recommend 
that the shooting of both style of weapons should be done on the 
same target, in order that they can be taken together as one 
match. If any of my suggestions do not find favor with Mr. 
Petty, let me know his ideas on the subject, and I have no doubt 
we can reach some amicable agreement.

Pacific Slope Rifle Notes. 
San Francisco, Cab, March 10.— The first general shooting festi- 
val of the year was held last Sunday iu celebration of the opening 
of the picnic season by Capt. Siebe, proprietor of Shell Mound 
Park. The day was perfect, and many hundreds enjoyed the vari- 
ous festivities. The riflemen were out in force, and many were 
the dollars that crossed the cashier's desk. The following clip- 
ping from a local daily gives a good account of the shoot: 
"The marksmen were in their glory 1 yesterday at the Shell 
Mound range and succeeded in turning out one of the best match 
shoots in the history of the State.. The militiamen were also on 
hand and many of them participated in the big event of the dav— 
an open tournament, with cash prizes to the amount of J207 
There were twenty-four prizes, ranging from |30 to $2, and' the 
conditions allowed any rifle not under thirty-two or over forty - 
five calibre, and any sight except telescope. The tickets, good fi r 
four shots, were sold for $1 each. 
It was an excellent dav for shooting and the scores were far 
above the average. Dr. Rodgers, president of the Columbia Rifle 
and Pistol Club, won the first prize with a score of 95 out of a 
possible 100, and the lowest prize- winning score was 87. It will 
be seen, therefore, that the shooting was exceptionally good. 
Following are the top scores:
