The third and fourth days 1 scores are given below. It will be 
noticed that tbere is in the majority of cases a big improvement in the 
totals made during the two last days of the shoot. This was due to 
the fact that the wind was not blowing as strongly as during the first 
two days, and it seemed to me also tbat the targets were thrown 
somewhat easier. 
Third Day. Fourth Day.

In the above tables events 3 and 6 on each r>ay were 25 target races; 
the others were all 20 target runs. The shooting in all events was at 
unknown angles. 
THE AVERAGES. 
The averages made will be found to be extremely low. That fact 
speaks better than any other as to the manner in which the targets 
were thrown. When Heikes cannot average better than 90J^ at un- 
known angles the shooting must re hard. McMurchy, w ith 90 per 
cent., did great work, as he was decidedly under the weather on the 
second day. Glover 89J4 Budd, LpRoy and Ruble 88, Buker, Jenks, 
vl Monev > Parmalee, Redwing-, Trimble and Upson 87, all shot well 
on the whole, but al times each man took a tumble that was almost 
unaccountable. Grimm, with £6 per cent, lost 34 targets on the last 
day. The percentage, together with the totals broken each day, the 
total number broken and the number shot at are given below, the

NOTES OF THE SHOOT. 
Seth Clover of the Clover Trap and Target Company, Fredonia 
N. Y , was on hand with a specimen trap. Seth gave practical illu= 
trations of the merits of his trap from time to time, dividing his hours 
equally between shooting, exhibiting bis trap and relating hunting « 
perienees in and around Detroit, aboard the Iolanthe, Jack Parker's 
bo fit. 
••DuPont" Waddell, of Chattanooga, Tenn.. was very busy advertis 
ing the DuPont Company's Smokeless. His tent was verv attractivs 
and his style of advertising caught the eye at once; the large hand 
painted sign over the entrance was artistic and taking Waddell talks 
about the likelihood of a big shoot at Chattanooga, during the cere 
mony of opening Chickamanga Park; the shoot to take place on Look 
out Mountain. 
R. F. Trimble, of Covington, Ky., is a new man at large tourna- 
ments. He has come suddenly to the very front rank, and being ciuite 
young, should cut quite a figure at trap-shooting contests for some 
years to come His two scores of 25 straight out of 8 events of 25 targets 
during the meeting is a record not equalled by any other shooter 
Flick, of Ravenna, O., the one-armed shooter, held his own from 
first to last. 
Irby Bennett had a supply of Memphis programmes to distribute 
during the last days of the shoot. The programme is a good one but

I believe the 25-target race will be moved from last place to about the 
third event on the programme. 
Tom Callender and Trcisdorf powder arrived in time to to take part 
in the first event on the first day. Tom is not in form, but he didn't 
give in until the middle of the third day. 
M. A. Keller, Batavia. N. Y. ("T. K.'s pa"), brought with him a trap 
invented by himself. Mr. Keller is well known in the Patent Office at 
Washington as the owner of several valuable patents on reaping and 
binding machines. He shot along with the boys, getting "them ail- 
but six" several times. 
Gay was unfortunate enough to be troubled with a sore cheek be- 
fore the tournament started. It became so painful that he had to re- 
tire for good at the close of the seventh event on the first day. 
Messrs. McCrary & Branson, of 604 Gay street, Knoxville, took an 
excellent photograph of the shooters present at the tournament on 
the first day. I have never seen a better photograph of a similar 
character; every face is clear and distinct, making the photograph a 
valuable souvenir of Knoxville in "95. The picture is 10x14. Messrs. 
McCrary & Branson will furnish single copies upon application. The 
price is $l per copy. Owing to dull, rainy weather on Monday of this 
week, Forest and Stream cannot give a reproduction of the photo- 
graph until the issue of June 8. 
Knoxville strawberries made a great impression on the shooters, the 
size of the berries being astonishing. The fruit, too, was as good as it 
looked. Edward Banks. 
Montana. State Sportsmen's Association. 
Butts, Mont., May 20.— The second annual tournament of the Mon- 
tana State Sportsmen's Association was held in Butte. May 17-19. It 
was, without question, the best shoot ever held in Montana, both in 
point of attendance and the genuine enthusiasm exhibited by all pre- 
sent. Butte has the reputation fand I guess it is pretty well de- 
served) of bung a "red-hot, town." Its shooting club is not behind 
the town one whit, and whenever it advertises a tournament every 
shooter within the confines of the State, and many from outside 
prints, always come, because they know every thing will be up to date, 
and that everyone will receive fair treatment. On this occasion 
Ogden, Utah, furnished six shooters— a crowd hard to beat from any 
one club, East or West. Among them were the Browning brothers, 
the inventors of the Winchester gun. Everybody came to shoot, and 
all the cashier had to do was to announce that he was ready to take 
entries and the way the cesh poured in would gladden the heart of a 
circus ticket fe!ler The Butte Club won the team trophy. James 
Conley made his reappearance among the shooting fraternity' after 
several years of retirement, and walked away with the bluerock 
cbampicnsfcip of the State with a score of 90 out of 100. Conley is a 
rattling good shot and one of the best natured men that ever faced 
the trap. 
The live-bird championship was won by H. P. Kennett, of Helena, 
after a spirited contest with John F. Cowan, the winner of last year's 
contest; and James Conley. Each killed 15 straight: in the snoot-off 
at 10 birds Cowan killed 9, Conley 7 and Kennett 10. Cowan'smiss 
was undoubtedly caused by a spectator throwing a stick at his second 
bird, which refused to fly at first. The stick came in line of the bird 
just as the shot was fired, causing shooter and bird to waver. Ken- 
nett's shooting was clean and quick. 
At the business meeting the following officers were elected: A. J 
Fisk, President; M. Wright, Vice-President ; C. H Smith, Secretary- 
Treasurer; Executive Committee, Dr. Pleasants, Robt. Rogers, C. A. 
Tuttle Missoula was chosen as the place for holding the next annual 
meeting.
