Notwithstanding the intensely hot weather which prevailed on Sat- 
urday afternoon, Junel, a large number of local shooters went to 
West Farms, N. Y,, to witness a four-handed match at 25 live birds 
per man, between A. D. Knapp and H. Oathbard on one side, and H. 
Senderer and T. .T. Byrnes on the other, The result was an easy win 
for the first -named pair,as the following scores show: Knapp24, Cath- 
bard 28, total 46; Senderer 21, Byrnes 9, total 30. 
Mr. Koya) Robinson, secretary of the Limited Gun Club of Indian 
apolis, writes that his. club claims the second week of September for 
its first tournament. 
Dr. Samuel J. Fort, of Baltimore, Md„ secretary of the Baltimore 
Shooting Association, was in this city last week. While here he found 
time to indulge in a few friendly revolver contests with Petty, and also 
to call on Forest and Stream. The Doctor was enthusiastic over 
trap-shooting prospects around Baltimore, and states that his Associ- 
ation contemplates holdiDg a large live-bird handicap, on the lines of 
the Grand American Handicap, some time this fall, the Association 
guaranteeing $1,000 in cash to the winners in the main event. The 
dates for the target tournament of the Association have not yet been 
fixed. 
Prof. Zeth, of Altoona. Pa., writes that "Wopsy" is looking her best 
and that everything will be in capital shape for the Altoona Rod and 
Gun Club's tournament, July 10-12. 
June 11 and 12, July 4, Sept. 2 and 3 are dates claimed by J. W. Ful- 
ford for tournaments at Utica, N. Y. At these tournaments both live 
birds and targets will be used. 
A new club has been organized at South Weymouth, Mass., under 
the title of "The Wessagusset Fish and Gun Club." The club was 
organized May 22 with the following sportsmen as its officers: F 0. 
Blanchard, President; W. T. Simpson, Vice-President; C. H. Tinkham, 
Secretary; G. W. Oonant, Treasurer. Directors: E. H. Belcher and B. 
B. Burbank. Mr. Tinkham writes me that capital grounds have been 
secured, and that the same were opened ou May 30. 
The proeramme of the Interstate tournament at Vicksburg, Miss., 
June 26, 27, is referred to elsewhere. The Vicksburg Gun Club will add 
$200 to the purses. 
The American E. C. Powder Company will give a four days' tourna- 
ment on May 5-S next year. The tournament will be held in the im- 
mediate vicinity of New York city, and the E. C. Powder Company 
will add $2,000 to the purses. These two items are important factors, 
insuring as they do a large attendance of the best shots in the 
country. 
The management of the Vernon Rod and Gun Club, of Brooklyn, N. 
Y., has recently made some important alterations on the club's 
grounds at City Line. Chief among the alterations Is the change in 
the direction of throwing the targets, the screen having been moved 
round to the left of the score, the background being considerably 
improved by this move. I understand that the scores made at the last 
two shoots show a corresponding improvement. It. used to be a hard 
matter to make ten straight under the old system. 
It looks as if Brewer and Duffy, of Brooklyn, N, Y., had come to 
terms, and Mr. Brewer will try to kill 95 out of 100 of Duffy's "iron- 
clad" birds. The stake is said to be $250 aside, and the place and 
date— Parkway, L L, June 10. As Brewer's two recent matches 
against birds were kept very quiet, I cannot vouch for the accuracy 
of any portion of the above; it is only hearsay and common talk, and 
is given as such. 
Pigeon-shooting, as is only right at this season of the year, is very 
quiet in this section. Why shouldn't May 1— September 1 be a close 
time for pigeons? 
In a letter which I received on May 29, Mr. Verner de Guise, of 
Mahwah, N. Y., mentions that his young pheasants (English, Mon- 
golian, Gold, Silver, Amherst, etc.) are hatching out fast. He has 
over 5,000 eggs under sitting hens at the present time I 
Scores made at the following shoots were received too late for in- 
sertion this week, and have consequently had to be held over : Oaoa- 
iobarie, N. Y. ; Dunkirk, N. Y. ; Boiling Springs Gun Club, Ruther- 
ford, N. J., (scores made on Decoration Day and June 10 
With the mercury steadily going up into the nineties, and after four 
days of record-breaking weather for the last of May and the begin- 
ning of June, it may be imagined how pleased I was with the ava- 
lanche of trap scores that piled into this office on Monday morning. 
Secretaries of gun clubs would confer a favor if they would send in 
scores as sooD;as possible after they're made. Of course, it's a caBe 
of "better late tban never," but this weekly Monday hustle, especially 
during the hot weather, shortens the life of even a trap editor. 
Nest week will be a big one in Memphis. Mr. Hough will see to it 
that the trap department of Forest and Stream does not get left. 
Other shoots during the week will be: June 12-13, Janesville, Wis.; 
13-14, Fargo, N. D.; 13-15, Omaha, Neb. (with Frank Parmalee as the 
presiding genius) ; 13-15, Portland, Oregon; 14, Worcester, Mass., and 
15, Wilmerding, Pa. 
Capt. A. W. Money, of the American E. O. Powder Compauy, sails 
early next week for England. Capt. Money's trip is one of business 
and pleasure combined During hia stay across the Atlantic he will 
take part in the international contests which will be brought off at 
Hurlingham and the Gun Club. Fdwahd Banks.

New Utrecht Gun Club. 
Brooklyn, N. Y., May 30— To-day being Decoration Day, the Holi- 
day Cup contest attracted 15 members of the New Utrecht Gun Club 
to the club's grounds at Woodlawn, L. I. Capt. Money, Class AA, and 
C. W. Floyd, Class B, both killed straight, Floyd not using his allow- 
ance. Dr. Littlefield, Louis Schortemeier and Conny Furgueson killed 
9 out of 10, and using their allowance of an extra bird, killed it, and 
scored 10. The five shooters above named then shot off for the cup, 
miss and out. Schortemeier dropped his first bird and retired, Dr. Lit- 
tlefield dropping out on the fifth round. Conny Furgueson killed five 
straight, but slipped up on his sixth, leaving Floyd aud Money to shoot 
it out. After each had killed eleven straight, Floyd dropped a bird; 
Capt. Money, however, also missed his twelfth. Floyd again missed 
his bird, the thirteenth in the ties, and Money killing, tool? the cup.

Boston Shooting Association. 
Boston, Mass., May 30. — The Boston Shooting Association held an 
all-day shoot to-day on their grounds at Wellington. Although the 
attendance was small, owing to all the local clubs holding shoots on 
this date, there were twenty-one events shot off. The birds being 
thrown as hard as possible accounts for the low scores made. Caterer 
J. A. Dill furnished one of his dinners; all who have been at the Boston 
Shooting Association's shoots know what that means. Scores in the 
events decided were as follows:

Shooting at Willard Park. 
Paterson, N. J., May 30.— The scores given below were made to-day 
at Boyle Brothers' Willard Park grounds. It was originally intended 
that there should be a sweep at 25 pigeons per man; owing to the 
scarcity of birds, however, the event was changed to 15 birds, $10. 
Considering the intensely hot weather, the birds were a good lot, 
scarcely a duffer among them. In the main event Smith acted as 
referee and Dutcher as scorer. The scores were:

The Record Breakers. 
A score of 119 out of a possible 120 in a 20-target event is something 
so much out of the ordinary run of things, being a record, that we 
have reproduced a photograph of the squad of six men who performed 
that feat on bluerocks, together with their score as it appeared on the 
blackboard. The occasion on which this score was made was the re- 
cent DuPont tournament at Cincinnati, O , and the squad, No. 3 in 
event No. 6 on May 7, was made ud as follows: J. W. Conner, Knox-, 
ville, O.; E. D. Fulford, Utica, N. Y.; Ferd. Van Dyke, Dayton, N. J.: 
Sim Glover, Rochester, N. Y.; H. Dando, Dayton, O., and C. A. Youngj 
Springfield, O. Event No. 6 was a "DuPont event," it being a sine qua 
non that all contestants in this event must use DuPont's Smokeless 
powder. So far as we are aware. Van Dyke was the only member of 
the squad who had used DuPont Smokeless to aDy extent prior to this 
event.
