'GREATEST OF THE GREAT. 
Memphis Second Annual. 
DIFFERENT DOWN THERE. 
Memphis, Tenn., June 14.— As was predicted in the hurried glance 
possible in the opening of the shoot, Memphis, second annual has 
provad to be all and more than all that was expected even by the most 
enthusiast ic. It misbt very well be called the greatest of the great 
shoots of recent seasons, even in matter of size, for its initial entry, 
104 actual shooters, broke the record of the year. It is not, however, 
in matter of size alone that a shoot is great. A cow is big enough to 
catch a mouse, but she can't. There must be quality as well as size. 
Memphis shoot certainly had distinctive quality. There was newsin 
this tournament, something to see, something to feel, something 
therefore to write about. One can express this no better than by the 
unformulated comment made by a Northern shooter, "It's different, 
someway, down here." 
Memphis tournament was probably better advertised than any 
shoot of the season; that is to say, it was more discussed, more was 
promised in regard to it, and more was expected of it. The manage- 
ment made a pronounced departure from the old methods of trap 
managements, and indeed perhaps inaugurated a new day in the sport 
of trap-shooting. It cut loose from the old subservience to the 
Shooter with a big S, and announced that it would run its own shoot, 
and run it square, promptly penalizing anything but straightforward 
and honest shooting. To say this and to mean it was indeed an inno- 
vation, and one not of a sort, in the opinion of many, to make a great 
popular tournament. The plucky Memphis men received only luke- 
warm support from certain sources, and there were not lacking many 
cheerful friends who predicted that the Memphis would be a calm and 
placid failure. Yet the events ot the past winter in regard to change 
of sentiment in trap matters are well known. To-day, if there be less 
rooked shooting all over the country, if the young and inexperienced 
hooter be better protected, and if the whole sport be better than it 
was, it is very largely due to the fact that these Memphis Gun Club 
men — I shall not distinguish among them — came out boldly from the 
old ways and laid down a path of their own. They did this in the face 
of odds and in the face of certain customs, but they pluckily held to 
their doctrine, and their pluck won. They made their announcements 
plainly, and did not rest content with hanging up a meaningless 
announcement. They said they were going to run things square, and 
they did it. The}^ said the referee's decision would be final, and it was. 
They said they would run a gentlemen's shoot, and they did. The 
same quiet firmness was manifest everywhere. It was apparent that 
the affair was in charge of a management business-like, courteous, 
but firm, one that intended to run its own shoot, and to do exactly as 
it had said it would do. The result was an event smooth, perfect, fair 
to all and immensely satisfactory, with an entry of amateur shooters 
no doubt the largest ever known in the South, and one called out 
solely by the resources and under the limitations of the Memphis Gun 
Club. In the past there have been larger entries in wild pigeon tour- 
naments, and a few mer chandise tournaments with cheap entry fees 
have had larger entries, but an entry of 104 men at straight rates, 
men from all over the country, and representing twenty-four different 
States of the Union, is something which of itself is a record breaker. 
Had the cashiers not been forced to close up and figure out the first 
shoot just when they did, the record would have been more badly 
broken. There were 109 shooters entered in event No. 1, and it would 
have had 115 shooters could it have been held open an hour or so 
more. 
All these things, and a success such as this in face of conditions 
such as those above recited, are reasons for calling the Memphis sec- 
ond annual shoot the "greatest of the great." The management, 
which calmly set aside all thought of anything but success and so went 
ahead and succeeded, can receive from any just point of view nothing 
but congratulation and compliment. They probably never knew how 
good a chance they had of making a failure in these days of hot tour- 
nament competition. None the less they proved that the sportsman- 
ship of this country is after all devoted to fair play and proper 
methods. The whole question was solved at once by j'ust two features 
which one must hold very desirable in sportsmanship— a gentlemanly 
love for honorable methods in sport, and a manly determination to do 
what has been declared. This will do for the general comment on the 
character of the shoot, 
GROUND ARRANGEMENTS. 
The arrangements for a tournament in a warm climate need to be 
well considered if the shooters are to be comfortable. Everything was 
well planned at Memphis. The great grand stand at Billings Park was 
sheltered with heavy canvas, and furnished s cool retreat below for 
the shooters when not at work. The judges' stand made a good place 
for the cashiers (and one should compliment Messrs. T. B. Hills and S. 
R. Simmons, the young gentlemen who kept the entry and purse 
books so well). The old grand stand made a good place for a good 
restaurant. President Divine had two spacious tents, Mr. Noel Money 
his "E. C." tent; Mr. Schmidt, of Memphis, a loaded shell tent; and 
Fred Waddell, Southern agent of the DuPont powders, had a cool big 
tent for shooters to lounge in. 
The traps were set in a long row, three sets of 5 traps, but each 
trap duplicated, so that in case of a balk by the electric pull the wire 
pull could be used instantaneously. The 30 traps were under super- 
vision of Mr. Fred. Quimby, and Chas. Hebbard had them in hand. 
(Empire traps and targets were used.) Capt. Divine, Mr. Irby Ben- 
nett, Mr. W. F. Allen, Mr. F. P. Poston and Mr. Fred Schmidt, of the 
tournament committee, all in turn pushed things along merrily. Mr. 
Sims was aided by Mr. Quimby and a tireless corps of squad hustlers. 
Mr. Paul Litzke, of Little Bock, Ark., one of the best of young tour- 
nament handlers in the country, was also of assistance at times in the 
hustling, when he was not working on the Forest and Stream tabular 
report, which latter, one must frankly say, could not have been pre- 
pared so well and promptly without him. In this table it has been 
attempted to give the news and the record of the shoot in the most 
condensed and terse manner possible to be devised. 
features. 
Shooters were present from Massachusetts, New York, Pennsyl- 
vania, New Jersey, Connecticut, Virginia, North Carolina, District of 
Columbia, Ohio, Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Georgia, Louisiana, 
Texas, Mississippi, Missouri, Kentucky, Florida, Arkansas, Kansas and 
Tennessee. The scores will show that the best of the land were pres- 
ent, though there are some desirable new names. It was an interest- 
ing gathering and one typical of a high order of sport. One must call 
this the best looking and best dressed crowd of shooters seen at a 
modern tournament. The weather was warm, and in consequence 
much variety and ingenuity in costume were in evidence Many sorts 
of cool head wear appeared— white helmets, straw helmets, etc. A 
basket-shaped straw fishing helmet was practical uniform for the 
shooters, and was pronounced a great success for hot sunshine. These 
helmets are apt to appear further north now, as most of the boys 
equipped themselves here. An "E. C. and Empire" squad attracted 
some attention by a uniform of red shirts. This squad ran from 5ft. 
or so up to about 7ft., being composed of Messrs. Worthington, 
Young, Upson, Van Dyke, Merrill and Cornett. "U. M. C." Thomas 
added local color by a generous distribution of big-vinored red caps 
with "U. M. C." lettered on the front. The usual amount of tourna- 
ment jollity waB continually in progress. 
The ladies, whom may God ever bless, favored the tournament with 
their presence. 
A POPULAR AND SUCCESSFUL PLAN. 
The tournament was very smoothly run. Kicking was not in 
ashion. The cash was well handled. In the first three events the 
hooting was all done without disbanding the squads, each shooter 
hus firing sixty-five shots before leaving the score. This saved 
much time. The blackboard score was used. I am by no means par- 
al to this form of scoring, but it seems to be general, and in a shoot 
e'ii 63 f this "dropping" to advantage is next to impossible any- 
ow. Good order was maintained about the score. At the desks a 
nicely engrossed card showed all the moneys in each purse already 
figured out. so a shooter could tell at a glance what was due him. As 
much as possible the first day's order of entry was preserved and 
entrance money was collected in a lump, A big incentive to amateurs 
to shoot through the programme was offered in the^ro rata division 
of $500. The daily sum of $100 to the twenty high guns was a very 
popular and desirable way of getting at the daily average money divi- 
sion. It pleased i he amateurs. 
In short, Memphis shoot was an amateur's tournament as much as 
might be, It will be noticed that the birds were so thrown that they 
could be broken by the average shooter as well as the expert. 
Straights were common and the money, on the system of purses 
adopted (SO, 30, 15, 15, 10, 10 per cent.), put the money into a great 
many hands. Of course, a few who did not get all the money objected 
to this, the old wolf idea of want it all cropping out. But no system 
by which a few can get it all and still all get some has ever yet been 
devised The Memphis plan of many purses and many ties is un- 
doubtedly the most reasonable as well as the most popular one, 
and that it best subserves the original purposes of this tournament 
B best attested by the remarkable way in which the entry held up 
on the second and third days. 
The rest of the story of the shooting can best be told by reference 
to the Forest and Stream tableSj which follow later. 
The programme for each day was as below: No. 1,20 singles, $3 
entrance, $50 added: No. 2, 20 singles, $3, $50 added; No. 3, 20 singles, 
3, $50 added; No. 4, 25 singles, $3, $50 added; No. 5. 20 singles, $3, $50 
added; No. 6, 20 singles, $3, $50 added; No. 7, 20 singles, $3, $50 added; 
No. 8, 30 singles, $4, $50 added; $100 to be divided into twenty purses 
of $5 each, to be awarded to the twenty high guns shooting in aU pro- 
gramme events. 
The Forest and Stream tables show the daily and total averages 
figured to the first decimal. The gun and load (powder and shell) or 
each shooter is given with his name. The shot load is not given, be- 
cause there is no news in it, and we must not make a market report 
out of the story of the shoot.
