The Wilmington Tournament. 
That a large entry is not always a necessary portion of a pleasant 
tournament was very plainly shown by the net result of the Wilming- 
ton (N. C.) Interstate Association shoot held on May 9-10, Thursday 
and Friday of last week. The largest number of entries is any one 
event was'l6— not quite three fall squads! Yet the tournament was 
by no means a failure. The experience gained by the club will be of 
great use to it in the future; the interest displayed by the citizens of 
Wilmington must be very grateful to the members of the home club 
id will encourage them to give another tournament next year. 
Under the circumstances, the counter-attraction at Cincinnati, O., 
being taken into consideration, the .Eastern Dog and Game Protective 
Association may have cause for regret, but it has nothing wherewith 
to reproach itself. The added money at the Dupont tournament and 
the low cut rates to Cincinnati were greater inducements than Wil- 
mington could offer: hence the absence of so many shooters whom 
"ne had confidently expected to meet there; notably Messrs. Bicaise, 
Post, Worthen, Steck, Pecerman, etc , of Charleston, S. C. all good 
shots and good companions; Col. J. T. Anthony, Major Todd, etc , of 
Charlotte, N- C, and several others, most of whom I understood 
were either at Cincinnati or else were lying by waiting for the double 
event of Lynchburg and Knoxville. 
From New York to Wilmington, N. C, is only a short trip, train No. 
S3, on the Atlantic Coast Line schedule, leaving New York at 9 P. M., 
and landing one at Wilmington just twenty-one hours later. At 
this season of the year the change in the appearance of the country is 
more startling than at any other time. When I left the Enpire Slate 
on the night of May 7 spring had just gotten a good start and summer 
was apparently not so very far away. At Wilmington it was summer 
in every respect: foliage, flowers and fruit, not to mention the hear, 
which was intense on both days of the tournament. l 'U. M. C." 
Thomas was my companion from New York, and as usual Thomas 
and myself got along all right. We've made several similar trips to- 
gether and are therefore acquainted with each other's weaknesses— 
and we have some of them, too. This trip to Wilmington, however, 
was one of the most bd joyable of the lot. The country south of Rich- 
mond, Va., was just beginning to recover from a ten days' rain; 
rivers and creeks were full of muddy water, but the bright sunshine 
of May 8, the fresh green of the fields and forests, the dogwood and 
wild honeysuckle blooms, and the total absence of dust, made the trip 
a treat. The only disagreeable part was the change trom our sleeper 
"Moselle" to a day coach at Wilson, N. C, Wilmington being in a kiDd 
of a way sidetracked by the cut-off from Wilson to Florence, S. C. 
Once the change was made, ibe ride of 108 miles was pleasant 
enough. The v hole of that 100 and odd miles is one big truck 
farm. Acres and acres of strawberries are just now being made 
to yield up their fruits for the benefit of the North, not by quarts 
or crates, but by whole carloads. At each station (and we stopped 
at an awful lot), everything was strawberry. Peas, snap 
beans and "Virginia" asparagus are also shipped at this time, I was 
told, but all I saw was ''strawberries to the right," etc. iMgro 
women and children of all shades, shapes and sizes were to be seen in 
New York in the same car with Thomas and myself without our being 
aware that he was "one of us " 
As for the shooting at this tournament, the less said about it the 
better. Something, I don't know what exactly, made everybody's 
scores run low. Strange to say, the only 15 straight in the two days 
was made by "U. M. C." Thomas in the first programmed event of the 
meeting. Rienzi got the only 10 straight made in all the 10-target 
races of the shoot; he did not secure this until the last event but two 
of the meeting! The general low averages are ridiculous, but I think 
they were the cause of a great deal of the fun we had. The number 
of targets thrown during the toui nament was 5,0^0—2,265 on the first 
day, 2,805 on the second day -not a large number. Still, there ought 
1o have been more straights with such men as Fonda, Gilmer and 
Thomas among the vi-ritors. 
The members of the home club looked after us in a truly Southern 
style; while, at the rf quest of Mr. E. Savage Latimer, the members of 
tho Cape Fear Club received all the visitors as their guests during the 
tournament. This was an attention on the part of the citizens of 
Wilmington for which I have been asked by those to whom this cour- 
tesy was extended to return formal, but hearty, thanks. 
Among the members of the home club wbo shot along with the boys 
were: H. McL. Green, president of the club, E. Savage Latimer. J. O. 
Wise, R. H. Grant, S. W. Sanders, L. L Pritchard, D M McEachprn, 
J. H. Beery. J. R. Williams, R. H. Pickett, and Stuart Heinsberger. 
In the matter of preparations for the shoot Manager Shaner had 
everything in first-rate style. The large tent of the Interstate Associa- 
tion, wnth its gun racks, coat racks, etc , is a vast improvement over 
the small tents of the individual roembe. s of the association that have 
been used at those tournaments for the past three years. As for tin 
trapoers— in Harkness the club has a colored jewel. He is easily 
facile princeps in his line; as a trapp a r, and boss of the other trap- 
pers, Harkness not only attends stricily to business, but displays con- 
siderable ability in making those under him keep up to the mark. A 
notable feature was the aosc lute disregard of these five trappers of 
the perpendicular rays of a sun that ran the mercury of the ther- 
mometer away up in the ninpties Without, a particle of cover to pro- 
tect them from the sun, Harkness and his troupe never left the trench 
from start to finish, except, when an adj jurnment was made for lunch. 
During the two days of tne tournament a eood number of members 
of the gentler sex graced the proceedings with their presence, while 
there was always an interested crowd of on-lookersof the male persua- 
sion who kept tab on the scores very closely.

EASTERN DOG AND GAME PROTECTIVE ASSOCIATION, WILMINGTON, N. C. 
the fields gathering strawberries. It was an interesting sight, but I'm 
glad now that I don't see my strawberries picked. On our way North 
on Saturday morning, May 11, we passed at Rocky Point, a station a 
few miles from Wilmington, a solid train of seventeen refrigerator cars ; 
these cars would be full of strawberries by the time they reached 
Wilson. Wilmington papers said it was the first traia of its kind to 
leave that section, and added that the value of its freight would 
amount to over $30,000. Truck farming on the present large scale 
which prevails in that section of the Tarheel State is scarcely more 
than a decade old. Watermelons, cotton and peanuts about make up 
the sum of the products of this little, but important, slice of North 
Carolina. 
It was not my intention to make this a treatise on agriculture or 
geography; but as I did not know where a large portion of our straw- 
berries came from, I thought there might be some others in a similar 
fix who would perhaps like to know. 
At Goldsboro, N. 0., about twenty-five miles south of Wilson, J. L. 
Fonda, of Greensboro, N. C, and H. C. Bridgers, of Tarboro, N. C, 
joined us. Both were bound for Wilmington and, both being well ac- 
quainted with the road, they were able to point out all the objects of 
interest and to answer many of ray numerous questions. I forgot to 
mention that while Thomas and I were just going to demolish our din- 
ner at South Rocky Mount, "Tom" Collins, of the DuPont Powder 
Company, hove in sight. He had joined our train at Weldon, N. C, 
where the Atlantic Coast Line and Seaboard Air Line come together. 
Collins and his DuPont powder were much in evidence at the tourna- 
ment, although he doesn't shoot a gun. By the way, talking about 
South Rocky Mount: whence came the name? There isn't a bill in 
sight from the railroad, and it is a hard matter to find a rock of the 
most diminutive proportions in and around the station; and apparent- 
ly the same conditions prevail at Rocky Mount, a mile or so north of 
South Rocky Mount. 
In Wilmington we found Elmer Shaner, of Pittsburg, Pa., and E. L. 
Gilmer, of Greensboro, N. C., registered af. The Orton. Shaner was 
slightly blue about the pmspects for a good tournament. Telegrams 
had been received from Charleston and elsewhere, all telling of Cincin- 
nati as the objective point of the senders. After events showed that 
Shaner was correct in his diagnosis of the case, the attendance being 
light. 
Thursday, May 9, was a lovely day, atypical summer day, a trifle too 
warm perhaps in the sun, but still very pleasant in the shade. The 
grounds of the Eastern Dog and Game Protective Association are 
located at the end of the electric street car line that runs to Hilton 
Park, a pleasure resort that overlooks the Cape Fear River. The trip by 
car from the center of the city iB made in about eight minutes, so the 
grounds may be classed as easily accessible. The streets of Wilming- 
ton, too, through which these cars run are well shaded; live oaks, 
chinaberry trees, elms, etc., line both sides of the sandy streets, and 
give a very grateful shade to those who walk, and also add greatly to 
the picturesqueness of the city itself. After breakfast on Thursday 
morning, while we were getting ready to go out to the grounds, we 
suddenly discovered that there was another shooter added to the 
ranks. This was Mr. August Schmitt, of Npw York, president of the 
New York German Gun Club, and a good shot too, notwithstanding 
the fact that he has to shoot one-handed, owing to the loss of his lett 
hand. Coming as a stranger among us all, Mr. Schmitt snon made a 
lot of friends, and was probably the most popular visitor at the shoot. 
His prowess with the gun on the second day may be traced by exam- 
ining Rienzi's scores, Mr. Schmitt choosing that title from the label on 
bottles of beer supplied by the Rochester Brewing Company, for which 
company Mr. Schmitt acts as manager of the New York branch, The 
funny thing was that Mr. Schmitt had actually come all the way from

NOTKS OF THIS* SHOOT. ' 
H. C. Bridgers, of Tarboro, N. C . is only a beginner so far as at 
tending tournaments goes, but his work equaled that of any shooter 
present, Fonda and "U. M. C." not excepted. y suooter 
S. W. Sanders, a member of the home club, shot from under the 
shade of an inverted basket that gave him the appearance of a vet 
eran African explorer. The soubriquet of "Stanley" stuck to him 
through the shoot. 
Some exciting games of pool helped to pass the evenings at The 
Orton, "Tom" Collins, Elmer Shaner, "Stanley" and McEaehern dis- 
tinguishing themselves m that line. 
"Rastus," a name which appears frequently in the scores of the 
second day, was a disguise adopted by E. L. Gilmer to conceal his 
records from his friends. 0 
When August Schmitt broke his 10 straight, three cheers were given 
for "Rienzi." 6 
The Wilmington Street Car Company believes in encouraging the 
gun club. It donates free transportation over its lines for one week 
to the shooter who makes the highest score at the club's weekly shoot 
Grant has won the honor eight times in succession; he says that it 
saves shoe-leather wonderfully. * 
In the picture of some of the members of the Eastern Dog and Game 
Protective Association, the gentleman on the extreme right holding 
the two setters, is J. C. Wise; next to him comes "Stanley" Sanders- 
the next pair are L. L. Pritchard (pine in his mouth) and J C Lodor 
At the table sits Jas. H. Taylor, while H. McL. Green, president of ths 
association, stands with his back to Mr. Taylor. E Savage Latimer 
is preparing to receive cavalry, and looks in earnest about it too With 
his back to the flagstaff stands J. H. Beery; the other four to "his left 
are respectively J. G. Trent, S. Heinsberger, E. G.Polly and Wm H Ber- 
nard. ' ' 
The scoring, pulling and cashier's departments were all filled with 
capable officials, Mr. Green bearing the burden of the unsatisfactory 
position of referee. In fact, everything was aU right-all that was 
needed was another dozen shooters. Eowakd Banks
