A Definition of what Constitutes an Amateur. 
The New Jersey Amateur Trap-Shooters' League, an organization 
of comparatively recent date, has, as a direct consequence of its title, 
been forced to take up the question of what constitutes a professional 
or amateur. The protests made by the president of the League, C. F. 
Lenone, at the last shoot of the organization against certain members 
on teams taking part in the team race brought matters to a head. 
A meeting was called to consider the protests, but no action was 
taken on account of the small attendance, action being postponed 
until a meeting to be held on Friday. Sept. 11. On that date only 
three clubs out of the five forming the League were represented: G. 
H Piercy, Endeavor Gun Club; Carl von Lengerke, Endeavor Gun 
Club, and (by proxy) Oritani Field Club; Thomas G. Bell, Bergen 
County Field Club. Neither Boiling Springs Gun Club nor Passaic 
City Gun Club were represented, Mr. Lenone, a member of the latter 
club, and also president of the League, being unable to be present. 
Noel E. Money, as a member of the Bergen County Gun Club, took 
part in the proceedings. 
Mr. Piercy, as vice-president, took the chair in the absence of the 
president. After a general discussion as to the best course to pursue, 
the chairman left the chair and seconded Mr. Bell's motion that the 
protests be not sustained. Motion carried. 
The secretary of the League, Mr. Bell, read a long letter from the 
Endeavor Gun C]\ib putting forth its views on the questien of what 
makes a man a professional trap-shooter, and urging the League to 
take prompt action to settle the question so far as the League was 
concerned. In the above communication it set forth also certain 
definitions on amateurism and professionalism, offering the same for 
consideration by the League. The discussion of these rules and defini- 
tions covered a great deal of ground, and before adoption the rules 
themselves were subjected to a fair amount of pruning. Mr. Bell 
made a motion that the League appoint a committee of three men, 
not necessarily members of the organization, who should draw up 
definitions on the above points and present them to the League with a 
view to their being adopted. Mr. Bell's motion was not seconded, 
the opinion of the other members present being that the time to act 
had come. 
The following definition of amateur and professional was finally 
adopted and will, we suppose, be accepted by the League: 
"A shooter ceases to be an amateur by engaging in shooting either as 
a means of obtaining a livelihood or for gate receipts; the dropping of 
birds for place, or the arranging of divisions of moneys other than those 
allotted to him by his position in any event; accepting directly or indi- 
rectly for shooting any remuneration or compensation or expenses 
whatever. A shoot er does not forfeit his amateur status by teaching or 
pursuing the art of shooting solely for the purpose of making a sale of 
guns or ammunition, but shooters in the employ of gun, powder, shot 
or ammunition manufacturers may be transferred to the professional 
class if in the opinion of this Association they are employed for this 
purpose only. Any shooter who refuses to answer any questions 
touching his amateur status to the satisfaction of this Association 
shall be declared to have forfeited his amateur status," 
The handicaps for the ensuing three monthly team competitions 
were awarded as follows: Endeavor Gun Club and BoiUng Springs 
Gun Club, scratch, each man on the team shooting at 30 targets; 
Passaic City Gim Club and Bergen County Gun Club, three extra tar- 
gets per man; Oritani Field Club, five extra targets per man. 
Under the constitution and by-laws of the League, no man who has 
once shot on a team is allowed to shoot on another team during the 
season. The score of Gus Greifl was, under that rule, ordered to be 
stricken from the score of the Endeavor Gun Club's team made on 
the Passaic City Gun Club's grounds, Aug. 29. The remainder of the 
team's total stands, and will be counted m the team averages at the 
end of the season.

I^ake Side Bod and Gun Club. 
Burlington, Vt., Sept. 5 —Below are the scores made to-day by 
members of the Lake Side Rod and Gun Club at the regular weekly 
shoot held this afternoon. The recent tournament of the Interstate 
Association, held on our grounds . put new life in our members, and 
they anxiously waited for to-day's shoot, at which they were going to 
find out why "l;his one" or "that one" got away from them when 
they were holding as true as possible. I do not think they were satis- 
fied, but wiU try again at our next shoot. You will see that there are 
a few new names among the shooters present, and that shows new 
life in our club— thanks to the Interstate Association. Scores:

PUBLISHERS' DEPARTMENT. 
Grood News from South Dakota. 
Th glorious results of this season's harvest of golden grain will 
pour a stream of sound money Into the pockets of every Dakota 
farmer. 
South Dakota has thousands of acres of choice farming and ranch ' 
land lying east of the Missouri River, and within one day's ride from 
Chicago or Milwaukee, which can now be bought reasonably cheap, 
but which before the end of another year may be advanced in price. 
The stock raising industry in South Dakota is profitable, and Eastern 
capital is now being invested in cattle and sheep growing in that 
State. 
Diversified farming, the growing of live itock and the products of 
the dairy are placing South Dakota foremost in the ranks of the suc- 
cessful Western States. r 
Those desiring full information on the subject, and particularly 
those who wish to seek a new home or purchase land, are requested 
to correspond with W. E. Powell, General Immigration Agent, 410 Old 
Ctolony Building, Chicago, 111., or to the local agent of the Chicago, 
Milwaukee * St. Paul Railway.— 4df.
