NOTES OF THE SHOOT. 
Some one who was comparing the scores made by "Money" on both 
days of the shoot, noting the improved totals on the second day, asked 
Capt. Money: "Was that your son, Noel, who shot yesterday?" Rather 
rough on the younger of "the Money brothers," wasn't it? 
. U. M. C. Thomas was a conspicuous absentee at this shoot. The 
presence of U. M. O. at all the Interstate shoots to date has been so 
regular that his absence is felt all the more. The Sportsmen's Exposi- 
tion must bear the blame for his enforced defection. 
Mr. Chas. Tatham, of the firm of Tatham Bros., shot manufacturers, 
and president of the Interstate Association, has set his fellow members 
an example that should be followed. He stepped up to the score, and, 
though only a comparative beginner at the sport, broke a good share 
of his targets. 
Every time Gilmer looked at Shaner's red sweater the perspiration 
rolled down his face. He explained this phenomenon by saying that he 
just did it for sympathy, adding that "Elmer would look pretty in a. 
gauzy white one!" 
' DuPont" Collins was present at the shoot on -both days. He left 
for Baltimore at midnight on Saturday. 
The Dayton shoot kept the Winchester Repeating Arms Co.'s repre- 
sentative away, while the Sportsmen's Exposition is also answerable- 
for Tom Keller's, Gur Greif 's and DuBray's absence. 
Lynchburg, noted for her fair daughters, sent a contingent of the' 
same to witness the shooting. Ladies at a tournament add greatly to> 
the pleasure of those who are taking part in it. Edwabd Banks. 
The Handicap Approved. 
At the close of the Interstate Association's shoot at Lynchburg, on 
Saturday, an informal meeting was held in the club house. Col. Terry 
informed those present that the meeting had been called at Col. 
Anthony's request. 
Col. Anthony said that he wished to extend to the members of the- 
Lynchburg Gun Club a vote of thanks for the royal manner in which 
it had entertained its guests. The shoot, he said, was not so largely 
attended as it should have been, owin? to unforeseen causes, but it 
was certainly a success. If there was anybody present who thought 
otherwise, and said so, he CCol. Anthony) could lick them. (Mr. Mc- 
Alpin, "Second the motion.") 
Mr. C. W. Scott said that there ought to be a chairman to take 
charge of matters; Mr. McAlpin was unanimously elected to fill the 
position. Upon taking the chair, Mr. McAlpin put Col. Anthony's 
resolution for a vote of thanks to the home club; the motion was car- 
ried nem. con. Col. Terry and Mr. Scott replied on behalf of the 
club, the latter stating that his speech having been prepared for a. 
large assemblage, was therefore unsuited to the occasion; the com- 
pany present would therefore have to excuse him. 
After considerable discussion regarding the handicap used at this 
tournament, in which Col. Anthony, Capt. Money, Empie, Scott and 
others took part, all speaking in highly commendatory terms of the' 
system in use at the Interstate shoots, Mi'. Scott offered the following 
resolution: "Resolved, that the handicap adopted by the Interstate' 
Association for use at its tournaments during the season of 1895 is 
hereby approved by the Lynchburg Gun Club, and by the visitors to 
its tournament on May 17 and 18. Resolved also that a copy of this 
resolution be sent to the Interstate Association and to all the repre- 
sentative sportsmen's papers for publication." This resolution was 
adopted unanimously. 
Col. Terry then moved that a vote of thanks be accorded the Inter- 
state Association for its courtesy in giving the tournament that had 
just closed; and also to the manager of the Association for his capable 
and effective work as manager of the shoot. Col. Terry's motion was 
seconded and carried, Mr. Tatham returning thanks on behalf of the 
Association. 
A motion was also made and carried unanimously that a vote of 
thanks be accorded to Mr, A. D. Wright, proprietor of the Arlington 
Hotel, for his hospitality in furnishing a lunch in the club house on 
the two days of the tournament, free of charge, to the members of 
the gun club and its visitors.

The Memphis Programme. 
There are programmes and programmes. There are programmes 
that contain much reading matter, and there are other programmes 
which contain next door to no reading matter at all, but which are yet 
A8 full of interest as the average female Dominick's egg is of meat. 
The Memphis Gun Club's programme for its second annual tourna- 
ment is one of the latter clars. Page 2 contains about all that there is 
to be told. The words used are telling and to the point, and it is very 
little use for Forest and Stream to remind its readers that when the 
Memphis Gun Club talks it means just what it says. 
Page 2 is headed, "Memphis Gun Club, June 11, 12 and 13, 1895. Rules 
and Conditions." Under this caption appears the motto, "No handi- 
cap, the world invited." Then comes the following: "The referee's 
decision is final under all circumstances. We mean what we say. We 
are going to have a dead square shoot. All purses divided 30, 20, 15, 
15, 10, 10. Shooting to commence promptly at 8:30 A. M. Contestants 
requested to make entry for the entire programme for each day. 
Money refunded for all uncontested events. Grounds open for prac- 
tice snooting the morning of the 10th. Main street cars running north, 
pass all hotels and run direct to the grounds every ten minutes. Pea- 
body Hotel will be headquarters. Special rates have been secured at 
this hotel. The Arlington is on the European plan, and we recom- 
mend this hotel to those who wish to live on that plan. Accommoda- 
tions secured in advance for those desiring it. Shooters wishing to 
send shells, guns, etc., in advance, can address same to J. G. Schmidt 
& Son., who will care for them and deliver same on shooting grounds 
free of charge. Special rates of one and one third fare on all railroads 
have been secured." ' 
The page concludes with "Our special feature— $500 given away." 
The way this $500 will be given away is as follows: $500 in cash will be 
prorated among all contestants who shoot through all events in the 
three days' programme. Members of the Memphis Gun Club and 
■manufacturers' agents are barred from any share in this division. All 
shooting will be at known traps, unknown angles. 
The next page of the programme contains an introduction that is 
worth reading: "On Aug. 7, 8 and 9, 1894, the Memphis Gun Club 
made its first bow to the public, We now present to the shooters of 
the country our programme of the second annual tournament, which 
will be held on June 11, 12 and 13, 1895. We take pardonable pride in 
the fact that, in one single step, Memphis has bounded to the front 
rank as a shooting center, and in offering $2,000 added money, a 
greater amount than has ever been given by any club, we hope to at- 
tract to our city the better class of shooters from every section of the 
country, and we extend a cordial, hearty invitation to all to come and 
partake of our hospitality. It has been our effort to elevate the 
standard of sport, and we are satisfied from the encouragement that 
we have received that our efforts have not been in vain. We confi- 
dently expect to have the most successful tournament in point of at- 
tendance and personnel ever held in the United States. We wish here 
to express to the sportsmen's journals throughout the country our 
thanks for the many courtesies they have extended and the aid they 
have given us in making our shoot what it will be. We do not propose 
in this programme to show to the world its many advantages, itB com- 
mercial supremacy or the open-handed hospitality of its citizens. 
They are all so apparent that -he who runs may read.' All are cor- 
dially invited to come and judge for themselves." 
The events scheduled for each day's programme, the amount of 
money added, the average money donated, and the entrance moneys, 
are very easily remembered. The following is the first day's pro- 
gramme: 
No. 1, 30 singles, $3 entrance, $50 added; No. 2, 20 singles, $3 en- 
trance, $50 added; No. 3, 20 singles, $3 entrance, $50 added; No. 4. 20 
singles, $3 entrance, $50 added; No. 5, 20 singles, $3 entrance, $50 
added; No. 6, 20 singles, $3 entrance, $50 added; No. 7, 20 singles, $3 
entrance, $50 added; No. 8, 25 singles, $4 entrance, $50 added. Also, 
$100, to be divided into twenty purses of $5 each, to be awarded to the 
twenty high guns, shooting in all programme events. 
The same also stands good for the second and xhird day's programme. 
It was compiled for short memories, and is as toothsome as they're 
made. With such an invitation, such a prospectus, and with such 
monetary inducements thrown in, why should not the Memphis shoot 
be a howling success? 
Missoula Rod and Gun Club. 
Missoula, Mont., May 13.— During the past week the gun club re- 
cently organized at Stevensville, thirty miles south, expressed a de- 
sire for a match with the Missoula team. The Missoulas were agree- 
able, and ten shooters were called for to shoot at Stevensville on Sat- 
urday the 11th. When the Saturday morning's train pulled out for 
Missoula a muster of the volunteers found nine ready for action. 
Upon arriving at Stevensville, it was found that there had been a mis- 
understanding, and that the entertaining club had only a team of six 
prepared for ihe meeting, However, in order to make things pass off 
harmoniously, they hustled up their extra shooters, and the fun be- 
gan. Weather conditions were perfect, but the traps worked none 
too well, and being of the rope-pull sort, rather bothered the Mlssoul- 
ians, who were used to traps manipulated by sundry electric attach- 
ments (small boys included). The first round of the five down sufficed 
to show that the visitors had a walkover, which was continued through- 
out the match. 
A glance at the scores will show that the Missoulians had little 
grounds for a "crow," although leading their opponents by 38 birds, 
their own score/3 being away below par. 
Twenty -five singles, known traps, unknown angles: 
Missoula.

The return shoot will probably take place in this city on Thursday 
of the present week, in order to give both team* the benefit of the at- 
tendant practice, as some of the members of each will the following 
day go over to Butte, the Montana State Tournament to be held there 
on the 17th, 18th and 19th inst. Should our boys do no better in Butte 
than they did at Stevensville, they will scarcely be "scrictly in it." 
As the Missoula shooters did not all return on the day of the match, 
there were but five contestants in the weekly medal contest held at 
the usual hour yesterday. 
F. P. Kern won the gold medal on a score of 15, and Charlie Lemley 
secured the silver trophy by default; however, as he also knocked out 
a score of 15, it is quite apparent that he is entitled to wear the same 
for a week.

New Utrecht Gun Club. 
May 18,— The attendance at the sixth special 20-bird sweepstake of 
the New Utrecht Gun Club was very small. The birds were a very 
good lot. Weather fine, with bright sun and no wind. Several mem- 
bers came too late to enter. Handicaps: Class A, 20 birds; Class B, 2 
misses as no birds and 20 birds; Class 0, 4 misses as no birds and 20 
birds, 
Floyd shot a fine race, his fifth bird and only miss dropping just 
over the boundary line stone dead. Scores:
