[May 4, 1895. 
The Elizabeth Bi-monthly Tournament. 
Elizabeth, N. J., April 26.— The bi-monthly tournament; of the 
Elizabeth Gun Club closed to-day. The attendance on both days was 
small, the three days' tournament at Peekskill, N. Y., acting as a 
strong counter attraction. During the second day's shoot an interest- 
ing little episode occurred. A pigeon hawk flew low oyer the urounds 
while the shoot was in progress. Class picked up his gun from the 
rack, put in a shell and fired at the hawk, which was hy ibis time 
quiteaiong way rff, -When Class fired, the hawk dropped a small 
object, but the bird went on. "When picked up the small object was 
found to be an English sparrow i

The New Utrechts won Easily. 
Woodlawn, L. J., April 24.— To-day the team of the New Utrecht 
Gun Club easily defeated the Riverton (N. J.) Gun Club's team, 
making amends for the defeat administered to them at Riverton on 
March. 27, when the home team won by four birds. In To-day 'b contest 
the New Utrecht men started with a rush, scoring 32 out of their 'first 
33 birds, as against 24 killed by their opponents: this gave them a 
lead of 8 birds, and after that the Riverton men were never dangerous. 
In rounds 2, 3, 10 and 16 the home team killed ell their birds, while in 
rounds 1,5,14, 15, 17 and 18, oi ly one miss was recorded on their 
score. Three misses were made in rounds 4, 8 and 20, 8 out of 11 being 
the count number of kills made in any one round by the home team. 
The Riverton men. on the other hand, killed ell their birds in but one 
round— No. 7; 10 kills were registered in rounds 4, 6, 10 and 12. Four 
rounds totaled but 28 tills out of a possible 41, four birds being 
missed in each of rounds 8, 15, 19 and 20. In round 11 six of the 
visitors missed their birds. The totals at the end showed: New 
Utrecht 191, Biverton 170. At the end of each round the totals stood:

Chris. Meyer made top score, killing all his birds; Duryea, Winn and 
Phister each scoring 19. Davis led the visitors with 10 out of 20. The 
teams were 11 men a side, each man shooting at 20 birds, club handi- 
cap rise. The New Utrechts' percentage was almost 87, a remarkably 
high team average on such birds as they trap at Woodlawn. River- 
ton's average was a fraction over 77. The result shows that the hocdoo 
supposed to have exerted an evil spell over the club in the shape of a 
stuffed owl (whose fate is told elsewhere) has, at any rate, been tem- 
porarily laid. Scores:

The Peekskill Tournament. 
The annual tournaments of the Peekskill CN. Y.) Gun Club are 
always well attended. To any one who has ever visited this little city 
on the banks of the Hudson during the progress of one of these tour- 
naments the reasons are not hard to find. In the first place, Peekskill 
is easily reached, and is a central point in a good trap-shooting section • 
secondly, the accommodations at the grounds of the gun club (if the 
li*ht for target shooting is not of the best) are ample, and everything 
about the cluo house is arranged with a view to the comfort of both 
shooters and spectators; lastly, the Peekskill boys know how to run a 
shoot and to entertain their guests while attending to the routine work 
of a tournament. This is a knack which some clubs possess in a 
marked degree, and it is one that helps very materially to assure the 
success of a shoot. It was a matter of regret to me that other engage- 
ments prevented my being at Peekskill during the first two days of the 
last tournament, April 24 and 25, when the shooters were smashing 
targets By my absence I missed seeing one or two shooters whom I 
7°^ ,d . h a v e hked to meet again, among the number being W. P. Ray- 
land ("Hags"), of Rome, N. Y.; George Mosher, of the Syracuse Arms 
h.TP^hJ'o^^^^L 0 ^ 61 "'^ Roch ester, N. Y. By the way, Glover 
didn t do a thing to the targets on the second day, did he? A "record of 
189 out of 195, an average of 97 par cent, is a corker I 
On the first day most of the boys were off in their shooting, O. R 
Dickey, manager of the Boston Shooting Association, alone doing 
anything remarkable his average of 9.% per cent, being away abovl 
any of his fellows. Glover with 90^, and Taylor and LeRoy with 89S4 
and 69 per cent, respectively were closely bunched for the. next places 
The second day saw some remarkable averages recorded- Glover led 
with 97 per cent.; then in order came Fulford and LeRoy with 94 & n 
gar 92^. Dickey, Van Dyke and Rayland 91J4, and Hoffman wltbSGM! 
In the team race, the New York team won somewhat easily the New 
Jersey team being second and the Peekskill men coming in last Id is 
only fair to state that the latter team did what many another team 
would have done under similar circumstances. At the time when it 
started in to shoot, the New York's big score staring it in the face a 
small-sized hurricane that was fathered by a thunderstorm swept 
across the grounds an I the deed was done, all chance of winning being 
knocked on the head. After that a small score was a certainty 
Twenty -nine shooters took part in the events on the first day 27 shoot- 
ing on the second day. 
Thursday, April 25, was live bird day, and a more perfect davit 
would have been hard to find Perhaps a little more breeze to aid the Qi 
birds might have been desired, but then tbe biids provided by the cluh % 
were as good as any that I have seen trapped lately; they were par- 
ticularly good in the 15-bird race. Among the shooters were: H. C. 
Higginson and James Taylor, of Newburgh, N. Y. ; Van Dyke, of 
Dayton, N. J.; T. H. Keller. Plainfield, N. J.; E. D. Fulford, Utica, 
N. Y.j Capt. Money, Oakland, N. J ; M F. Lindsley, Hoboken, N. J.; 
Oscar Dickey, Wellington, Mass. ; B. "Leroy" Woodward, Campello, 
Mass. ; Justus von Lengerke, of the firm of Von Lengerke & Detmold, 
N<*w York; G. Kendal), of Binghamton, N. Y. ; F. L. Train and G. A. 
Barker, members of the Cobweb Gun Club, West Farms, N. Y. ; Neaf 
Apgar, Evona, N. J.; Fred G. Moore, New York city: "Taos," a dis- 
guise which effectually concealed "Count" Lenone, Passaic, N. J.; 
"Arnold," of Albany, N. Y.; and H. P. Dain, captain of the club, J. B. 
Halsted, M. S. Perry, "Thomas" (W. H. Pierce), of the Peekskill Club. 
Among those who looked on were: David Brown and Geo. H. Taggart, 
president and captain respectively of the West Newburgh Gun and 
Rifle Association; W. H. Brown, of Binghamton, N. Y. ; "Johnny" 
Hoffman, of German Valley, N. J.; "Billy" Hobart. of Newark, N. j , 
etc., etc. The blackboard was looked after by B. O. Everinghim; 
Wilton Jordan, president of the club, and Edward' F. Hill, its treasurer, 
teking care of the cashier's department. W. Fred. Quimby, of New 
York, was of great assistance to the club on the target days, acting as 
squad hustler, etc. Empire targets were used on those dsys, being 
thrown from five expert traps, the electric pull working well. 
Ii the main live bird event, on the third day, 15 birds, hardiest rise, 
$10 fntrance, birds extra, 21 shooters put down their names. The 
conditions called for 5 equal moneys, 5 high guns, three misses out. 
As it happened six were left in at the finish, Fred Moore and Justus 
von Lengerke killing straight, Train killing 14, and Halsted, Arnold 
and Fulford saving 13. The first three named each took one-fifth of 
the $210 in the pot, the three othe r s dividing the remaining two-fifths, 
S84. Moore. Von Lengerke and Train all used SchulUe powder, a fact 
that tickled Justus highly. Moore's shooting was of a very high class; 
during the day he killed 28 out of 30 birds, scoring his last 25 straight. 
Train also shot well, killing 26 out of 30. Halsted was especially fe nd of 
saving his shells, his scores showing that out of the 25 birds he killed 
during the cay, only five needed a second barrel. Fulford's score is 
better than it looks, as he drew some very hard birds, particularly 
during the big race. 
There is one thing I want to make a note of before closing, and that is 
the excellent and business like way in which the scores were kept; the 
manifold copies were as clear and legible as the originals, every detai l 
in the conditions being plainly written. If only all secretaries and 
club officials would do the same, a great burden of responsibility 
would be lifted from the shoulders of both the trap editor and printers 
of Foe est a:nt) Stream. 
The tabulated scores of the target events are made out for only the 
programme events. The first day's programme was as follows:— Nos. 
I, 3, 5, 8 and 10, known angles; Nos. 2, 7 and 9, unknown angles; No. 
4, traps in reversed order; No, 6, expert rules, use of both barrels. 
The second day's > rogramme containe d 11 events, No. 9 being the team 
race: Nos. 1, 3. 5, 7, 8. 9, 10 and 11 were at known angles; Nos. 2, 4 and 
6 at unknown angles,

Dunellen's Opening Day. 
New Jersey once more promises a "Dunellen Gun Club," and a live 
and energetic one at that. The present club is an organization of very 
recent date, having been born since the new year came in. Its presi- 
dent, J. G. Lindzey, and its secretary, T. W. Sisty, are men who will 
not let the club die of inanition. With a neat little club house, grounds 
as level as a billiard table, and a brand new set of empire traps with 
an electric pull, the club is ready to entertain its guests in good shape. 
To-day it had an all-day shoot as a sort of formal opening of its 
grounds. The notice given was rather short, and owing to that, and 
alno to the fact that just at this time there was rather a plethora of 
trap-shooting tournaments going on, the attendance was hardly as 
large as it should have been. The Plainfield boys showed up well and 
Messrs. J. L. Chamberlain and Campbell, both of Flemington, N. J., 
also put in an appearance and shot in a few events, making good aver- 
ages. Keller led with a percentage of 92J^ for 160 targets shot at, Van 
Dyke and Apgar tieing for second place witb S0>£. To rightly value 
these percentages it is necessary to give the nature of each event. 
Nos. 1, 3 and 7 were at known angles; Nos. 2. 4, 6, 8. 9, 11 and 12 at un- 
known angles; No. 5 at traps in reversed order; No. ;i0 at 5 pairs. The 
cashier's department was well handled, the shoot altogether being 
thoroughly enjoyable. The following is a table of the scores made:
