mere publication of Bcores, the same have been held over until next 
week. 
The following from Mr. Arthur Hyndman, 32 Pine street, New York 
city, is worth the attention of all who intend to take part in the Du- 
Pont tournament: "It may be of interest to some of your readers in- 
tending to take part in the DuPont tournament, to be held at Cincin- 
nati May 7 to 10, to know that the Railroad Traffic Associations have 
authorized all lines to make a special rate of 1% fare for round trip on 
the certificate plan. Sportsmen will at the time of purchasing tickets 
call for a DuPont Tournament Certificate and it will be furnished by 
the ticket agent. This certificate will be indorsed at Cincinnati, en- 
titling the holder to purchase a return ticket by same route at one- 
third fare. Programmes are now ready for distribution and can be 
obtained from me on application." 
The Baker Gun Company, of Batavia, N. Y., Quarterly for this 
month contains the second prize article "About Gun Safeties " The 
article is written by C. E. Whidden, of Charleston, S. C , and is, of 
considerable interest. There is always a great deal that is worth 
noting by shooters in these quarterly publications by the Batavia'gun 
firm, and the present series of prize articles adds greatly to the qual- 
ity of the reading matter. 
The Palmetto Gun Club, of Charleston, S. C, opened its season on 
Thursday of this week. The programme contained eYents at targets 
and live birds, and also had a note to the effect that "Dropping for 
place will not be tolerated." Mr. G. A. Steck is secretary of the Pal- 
metto Club. 
The programme for the Texas State Sportsmen's Association tour- 
nament, May 15-19, and the Interstate Association's tournament at 
Lynchburg, Va. , May 17 and IS. are both to hand and will be noticed 
next week. The illustrations in the Texas programme are very inter- 
esting, and the programme itself gives evidence of the amount of 
work done by Mr. Guessaz. Edward Banks. 
Climax Monthly Club Shoot. 
Plainfield, N. J., April S3.— When the secretary, Dan Terry, sends 
around his postal cards announcing that the monthly shoot of the 
Climax Gun Club will be held on such and such a date, the members of 
that club are not in the habit of paying scant attention to such notice. 
The date is remembered, and, rain or shine, there is always a good 
attendance at Benner's Fanwood Road House at the hour appointed. 
To-day was no exception, The weather was threatening all the morn- 
ing and the chilly east wind was not inviting. Still less inviting was 
the early part of the afternoon, rain commencing to fall heavily about 
1:30 and continuing until about 4. So slight, a matter as a shower of 
rain did not stop tie shooters from gathering at the club house, six- 
teen members putting in an appearance. 
The first event was a 10-target race, expert rules, one man up, 50 
cents entrance. The scores made were as follows: Smith 10, D Darby 
10, Apgar 9, Brantingham 9, Manning 9, W. Squire 9, Edwards 8, G. 
Squire 8, Major 7, Keller 7, Williams 6, Singer 4. 
Next came the club race, which resulted in some good shooting, five 
of the members scoring the maximum number of points— 6, and only 
three out of the sixteen shooters failing to add to the totals already 
credited to them in the secretary's book Points are scored for each 
break over 19— one for each additional break up to 25, which entitles 
the party scoring that number to 6 points. All breaks over 25 count 
notbing. To-day's scores give points to shooters as follows: Apgar, 
Manning. P. Jay, J. Darby and Edwards 6 each, Brantingham 5, Wil- 
liams and Singer 4, Keller, D.Terry and D. Darby 3, Smith 2 and Major 
1. Full score below:

Rochester Rod and Gun Club. 
The Rochester Rod and Gun Club offers to its members a list of 14 
prizes, all of them worth winning, and also five special prizes, for 
competition during the present season. The first score in these pme 
shoots was given in our issue of April 20. The rules governing the 
prize shoots are as follows: "Shooting for above prizes will begin on 
Wednesday. April 3, and continue each week to and including Satur- 
day, Sept. 28, Wednesday and Saturday of each week constituting 
one shoot. Members in arrears may shoot up any number of back 
scores. Before shooting a string for the prizes members must so 
announce it to the scorer. American Association rules; rapid fire; 
known traps, unknown angles Highest number of targets broken 
wins first prize, etc. The handicap is taken on a percentage basis, 
counting all shots fired during past six months, and should a member 
fail to make his average on any string he will be given enough more 
targets on the next string to correct the difference percentage figured 
at 25 targets. The committee will meet once each month (after t ne 
shooting on April 27. May 25, June 29, *>tr\), to correct the handicap if 
found necessary, but otherwise the handicap cannot be changed." 
The handicap above referred to is the following, Glover and Kelsey 
being scratch men: Glover and Keisey, 28; Stewart and Pope, 30:

Will Use Rose's System of Dividing Purses. 
Mount ville, Pa., April 18.— We had a very pleasant tournament on 
Easter Monday, given by the Columbia' (Pa.) Gun Club on their East 
Columbia cjub grounds, at targets, with a division of three moneys, 
but all in equal parts, or 33}£ per cent, each, whicn enables all to get 
something bacK. The best part of the shoot was the small entrance 
fee— 50 cents for 10 birds. If you did not get in the divy, the price did 
nothurtyou. It is the pleasure of shooting the boys are after. The 
boys entered the same squads every time, so that the shoot was easily 
managed. The shoot kept up until everybody had shot away all their 
ammunition The club made double the money thev would have had 
they made the entries at $1 or $1.50. The wind was blowing a gale and 
the targets seemed to have wings. No straight scores. Messrs. Fieles 
of Christiana, and Burnham, of York, were present. The next tour- 
nament will be held at Mountville, witb same entrance, and straight- 
out or anti-drop system of dividing. Tell.

cornered match at 15 live biros between B. Lockwood, Fred Knof 
superintendent of the Larchmont Yacht Club's shooting grounds and 
L. B. Tompkins. The match was for $15 a corner, Lockwood winning 
by 13 kills, to Knof 's 12 and Tompkins's 10; the latter attributed his

Brewer's Money is Up. 
On Friday, April 19, John L. Brewer came into Forest and Stream's 
office and posted $250 in the hands of the editor of the trap depart- 
ment to bind a match with C. Cockburn, of Toronto, Can., upon the 
terms proposed by Cockburn in his letter published a few weeks ago 
in Forest and Stream. Brewer stated that he had seen the note in our 
issue of April 20, which referred to the fact that Cockburn had put up 
his $250 in the hands of the editor of the Canadian Sporting News, as 
Brewer had requested him to do. Such bsing the case, he said he was 
ready to bind the match, and posted $250 to do so. The following tele- 
gram was then sent to make sure that the terms proposed by Cock- 
burn were thoroughly understood at this end of the line: 
"H. P, Good, Editor Canadian Sporting Neivs, Toronto, Can., April 
19.— Brewer has placed in my hands .two hundrpd and fifty dollars to 
bind match with Cockburn on terms proposed by Cockburn, which 
were as follows: 100 live birds, 26 yards rise, 80 yards boundary, use of 
one barrel, lj^oz. of shot, gun below elbow till bird on wing, $250 
a side, Old Dominion rules to govern except in matter of rise, 
Cockburn to guarantee Brewer's expenses. Brewer wants all birds 
trapped from one lot. If terms are satisfactory, wire me immediately 
and money will be forwarded to you, to be handed over to winner. 
Shoot to take place any date from May 7 to 14 inclusive —Edward 
Banks." 
To the above the following answer was received on Monday morn- 
ing: " Cockburn accepts, money deposited. (Signed) H.J P. Good." 
The money put up by Brewer has accordingly been forwarded to Mr. 
Good, who now holds the $500, the ultimate ownership of which de- 
pends upon" who wins the match. No exact date has been fixed, but it 
will take place between May 7 to 14 inclusive, as Cockburn evidently 
does not object to those dates.

The Wilmington, N. C, Tournament. 
The Interstate Association will, on May 9 and 10, give a tournament 
at Wilmington, N. C, for the Eastern Dog and Game Protective 
Association. Advance copies of the programme for that event have 
been received. As at the Pittsburg shoot, so in all the Interstate 
shoots this year, the handicap system announced to the Pittsburg 
programme will prevail. It is well to note the following: "Any 
Bhooter who intentionally misses a target in order to obtain a certain 
place, shall forfeit all his interest in the purse, and will be debarred 
from taking part in any tournament given under the auspices of the 
Interstate Association." Headquarters for sportsmen during the 
tournament will be at The Orton, on Front Street, The programme 
scheduled for each day contains 10 events, all 15-target sweeps of 
$1.50 entrance, $5 being added to every purse by the home associa- 
tion, $100 in all. All events are uniform, as stated before, this being a 
necessity where the graduating handicap is used. For any further 
information apply to L. L. Pritchard, Secretary, Eastern Dog and 
Game Protective Association, Wilmington, N. 0. 
Missoula Rod and Gun Club. 
Missoula, Mont., April 14.— The club was not fully represented at 
to-day's shoot, probably because of a chilling wind, which made shoot- 
ing disagreeable. C. A. Searles captured the gold medal on a score of 
17, and F. P. Kern secured the B. class medai on an identical score:
