Arizona State Sportsmen's Association. 
TuosoN. Ariz., Jan. 12.— The morning of Jau. 9 dawned brigM and 
clear at Prescott, and gave promise of a perfect dav ; but ere tbe hosts 
of Arizona were drawn up in battle arrav before the traps, dark, low- 
ering clonds hung all around, and gusts of wind swept over the 
grounds, while rain, snow, and occagional hail appeared at intervals. 
However, the Prescott boys had made arrangements for the bodily 
comfort of vi'^iting sportsmen by the erection of a large tent, iu 
which- there was ample room for all guns, ammunition and shooters. 
The grounds are well located, and although the old-style rope pull 
was used it certainly gave the best of satisfaction. 
The visitors were: J. H. Holmes. F. N. ficofield, M. E. Morin . M. B. 
Chubb and J. H. Aitken, Phcenis: K. L. Hart, 0. Weber, F. Wilding, 
O. Connor, C. P. Hart and J J. Hallowell. of Tucson The occa- 
sion of the visit of this aggregation of talent and gall to Prescott was 
the annual battle between the gun cranks of Arizona for the posses- 
sion of three very handsome medals, represenxing the four-men team 
championship, the individual biue rock championship, and the live- 
bird championship. As the shooters were being driven to the grounds 
in the morning there were more blue-rocks smashed than Paul North 
could turn out at Cleveland in seven years, aud more straights made 
than EoUa Heikes ever dreamed of ; but as the day waxed old the 
target factory was not enlarged, and the slumber of the man from 
Dayton had not been bi-okeu. 
The boys from Tucson started in at a swinging clip, and thanks to 
the fact that Ca.pt. Hallowell personally tucked each one of his team 
into his respective downy couch the night before, they kept it up 
all da.y and landed the blue rock medals. The individual badee was 
won only after a hotly contested race and a shoot-offi between 
Holmes and Hallowell, bur the team badge was won by the handsome 
margin of 20 birds, with the total score of 163 out of sJOO, each man 
shooting at 30 singles and 10 pairs. 
The morning of the second day was devoted to target shooting, and 
the weather was fairly good, but threatening clouds spoke badly for 
the live-biM contest to come ofE during the afternoon. The supply of 
live birds was very limited, and one event had to be cut otit of the 
prograndme entirely. The other one was shot in an almost continu- 
ous drizzle of rain, making the birds heavy and slow. "Very little in- 
terest was manifested during the " shoot, as hard drivers 
were few and far between, none of the stops were 
phenomenal, and not more than a half dozen birds were 
above the ordinary run. The shoot was finished in semi- 
darkness, and the two tied for the medal with 15 straight decided to 
shoot it off at some future time. Not so, however, the three tied on 
14; they, trusting to luck and awkwardness, decided to shoot in the 
dark, and had the pigeons been blue a clean score (of misses) would 
undoubtedly have been made, Hallowell finally succeeded in killing 
4 out of 5 and landed a fine gun case. Jack-son, of Prescott, killed 
Sand got 20O loaded shells; while Hart, of Tucson, killed 2 for a 
Thurman blouse. Thus ended the fourth annual tguriiament of the 
Arizona Sportsmen's Association, Who shall say it was not the best, 
for we all had a splendid time, were treated royallv, and had the best 
and squarest referee on earth. 
The Prescott Gun Club tendered to visiting sportsmen one of the 
best and most elaborate banquets which it has been my fortune to 
attend. This, combined with the thorough hospitality "of everyone 
we met in Prescott, from the solitary pioneer who met us at the train 
at 2 A. M. to the last parting handshake in the rain when we left, 
made it an occasion long to be remembered. 
The toasts which were responded to were as follows: Arizona 
Sportsmen's Ass'n. J. J. Hallowell; Arizona Quail, F. N. Scofleld: 
Sonora Pigeon, M. B. Chubb; Live Bird Badge, J. H. Holmes; Team ' 
Badge, C. Weber; Cactus Buck, M. E. Morin. 
After the banquet a meeting of the Arizona Sportsmen's Associa- 
tion was held, and the following officers were elected for the ensuing 
year- Pres., J. J. Hallowell, Tucson; Vice-Pres., C. Weber. Tucson; 
M. E. Morin, Prescott;' Corresponding and Recording Sec'y, K. L. 
Hart, Tucson; Treas., .J. H, Holmes, Phoenix. 
The next annual tournament was slated for Tucson, at such time 
as the club located there should set.

Sparrow Tournament at Indianapolis. 
Indianapolis, Ind,, Jan. 20,— The Limited Gun Club opened its 
sparrow shoot under very unfavorable auspices as far as weather 
conditions were concerned. The first gun ushered in a fine snow, 
which a half hour later developed into a very heavy snowfall; this 
continued to 13 o'clock, when it .again changed to a penetrating driz- 
zle, and this at 2:30 o'clock had again changed to a heavy snowfall. 
Ihe walks were kept well cleared, but still all was bad underfoot— 
nothing but slush all the time. Thesnowfall amounted tonearlv 6in., 
and thus the sparrows so trying to the eyesight where the ordinary 
dark background exists were made comparatively easy so far as see- 
rag was concerned. And as is usually the case with pigeons, the spar- 
rows did not fly so well as when ground is not covered with snow. 
The slight wind was favorable to incomers, of which there were a 
lar^e number, the greater number, however, being crossing shots. 
The SIX programme events were run off by 2:30 o'clock. In these 
the money was divided 50, 30 and 20 per cent. Two extra l.^i-bird 
"^^^^ ^ division of the purse into fom- moneys; 
1,405 birds were trapped in all; 15 traps were used and squads of live 
men shot ra pid fire. Each shooter faced one of three unknown traps. 
Ihe surroundings were conducive io rather high scores, but this 
should not materially detract from the shooting, which was excel- 
lent. In the 25-bird event the first squad averaged 96 per cent., and 
the entire score averaged 93 5 per cent.; in the 20-bird event the total 
score avcaged still better— 95 per cent.

Second Day. 
The weather conditions to-day were decidedly improved. No rain 
or snow fell, and it was colder, while a wind from the southwest re- 
duced the number of incomers The shooting was difQcult, but \ et 
not what the usual breeze from the above quarter gives us the

NOTES, 
Although E. D. Fulford kiUed one more bird in all the events than 
was scored to Ed Voriss, they tied in the programme events and 
divided first and second average money, $15 each; J. A.E. Elliott took 
third average money, $7.50, although Heikes beat him out for aver- 
age in all events. 
Ed Voris really failed to kill only two of his birds, three of his lost 
birds falling dead out of bounds. He carried off quite a bit more of 
the money than any other shooter, and this fact made him feel 
pretty well, and he talked enough to disclose the fact that he had 
never challenged anybody in his life and yet had shot 46 Individual 
matches, and lost but 3 of the 46. One uf the lost matches was when 
he shot one barrel against the oi her man's two barrels, and yet he 
was beaten only 9 birds in a 100-bird match. Mr. Voris came very 
near to giving O. H. Hampton a chance for revenge for a previous 
defeat at sparrows; matters came so nearly to a chmax that $40 was 
put up by Mr. Hampton, but was withdrawn shortly afterwards; it 
all seems to depend on Mr. Hampton. 
When I expressed the hope to .1. A. R. Elliott that he and J. L. 
Brewer would yet lock horns, Mr. Elliott indicated that "Barkis is 
willing" if tne race be shot on a neutral ground. 
The absence of A. W. du Bray was remarked early in the day by 
many of the shooters. His absence from a tournament of the 
Limited Gun Club would cause almost as much comment as the ab- 
sence of its efficient secretary. Royal Robinson. It was therefore 
with much pleasure that the appearance of DuBrayaboat 2 P.M. 
was noted. He did not do any shooting, as he was attending strictly 
to business In order to be able to leave for San Antonio, Texas, with 
the rest of the boys. 
It is more than three years s'nce Jim Elliott has been in Indian- 
apohs. His presence on this occasion caused quite a lot of talk in re- 
gard to the result of his recent match with J. I), Gay, of Pine Grove, 
Ky. Mr. Du Bray undoubtedly voiced the sentiment of all Kentucky 
shooters when he said that, though Old Kentucky had been defeated, 
such a defeat with such a score was no disgrace. For bis last 400 
live birds shot at Gay has averaged better than 95 per cent. 
Rolla Heikes had a slice of his usual well-deserved luck, carrying 
off the biggest pot of the day on 15 straight alone in the first I'-'bird 
event; the purse was about $30. Hyatt L. i'rost. 
Altoona Gun Club. 
Altoona, Pa., Jan. 81.— The annual handicap shoot of the Altoona 
Rod and Gun Cluo took place on New Year's Day at the club's new 
grounds near Lake Mont. This handicap is an annual feature among 
the members of the club and is usually well attended. This year 
however, the attendance was light, but the entausiasm was as great 
as ever and a good day's sport was had. The weather was fine with 
the exception of a high wind that blew across the traps from west to 
east, helping some of the right-quarterers to a gait that the boys 
could not gauge. The birds were a good lot, there not being more 
than half a dozen out of the 840 shot that refused to fly or leave the 
trap immediately after being released. 
After the handicap was over a miss-and-out and two 5-bird events 
were decided. In these Sands shot in great form, killing all his birds 
in grand style. Booky carried off the honors in the handicap, killing 
14, the lost bird falling dead out of bounds. Following are the 
scores:

Erie's Midwinter Tournament. 
Erie, Pa,, Jan. 20.— The Clover and Pope midwinter tournament 
was held at Massassauga Point, Erie, Pa,, Jan, 18, 13 and 14, and aside^ 
from disappoiiitment in the matter of attendance was a very success-' 
ful and enjoyable affair. The weather was clear and cold enough to 
keep the shooters hustling when at the score, and made the shooting 
both at live birds and targets all that could be desired. The birds' 
were first class, being a selected lot, and the targets were thrown as 
difficult as possib'e and testPd the skill of afi shooters present. While 
this is the first effort made in Erie for years to hold a touraament of' 
this kmd, it will not be the last. The ball is started, and there is no 
place in the country ^> ith better facilities for holding a first-class 
tournament than we have here, and I think those in' attendance at 
this tournament n ill bear us out in that. It is our intention to give 
another tournament in the spring that wiU give all trap-shooters in 
this part of the country a first-class time. The many shooters wend- 
ing their way to Indianapolis, San Antonio and Hot Springs, the 
present centers of attraction to the trap-shooters all oyer the conn"! 
try, caused many of our friends to deprive themselves of the pleas- 
ure of attending our tournament who would otherwise have been 
with us on this occasion.

Sim Glover shot in excellent form and held himself at the top all 
through the tournament. Sim is shooting a Parker gun and Schultze 
powder loaded in XJ. M. C shells, and is doing great credit to himself 
as well as doing the boys, as he earnestly and busily walks down the 
line knocking out clean scores one after another, and then walks up ' 
to the cashier's office and invariably gets first money alone. He 
then in a very complimentary way says to the cashier, "You are the 
quickest figurer and the best man in the cashier's offlee I ever saw at 
a tournament," closing by saying, "and that's no kid. either," E D 
Fulford, representing Francotte guns, was feeling good, looking fine 
and shooting to perfection; but was so busy selling guns that he 
hardly Kept up to his u.sual form, Ed sold four guns in Erie, and has 
other sales under contemplation, and says that Erie is all right. 
There is probably un man in the world who understands loading 
shells better for all purposes and conditions than E D. Fulford to get 
any desired pattern or penetration. He was loading his shells here for 
the sparrow shoot at Indianapolis. His first barrel will be loaded 
with 4dri3. of Schultze, with a complicated arrangement of wadding. | 
and l}4oz. of aqua ammonia instead of shot. He will shoot this in a 
cylinder-bore gun, which will fill the air through the whole boundary, 
with a suffocating mist. Should this load possibly fail, he will then 
steadily use his left, which I think is loaded with hemp or canary 
seed; , It least the w-hole combination is sure death to the sparrow. 
Capt Bartlett was shooting in fine form and attracting the attention 
of all by his rapid woik with the Winchester gun, which company he 
represents. 
During supper time on the third day there was sotne very excitmg 
live-bird match shooting going on over the sumptuously loaded board 
served by our host. Mr, .John F. Parke. Propositions, with condi- 
tions such as would draw the last cent from any shooter's pocket 
with a strong string tied to it, were offered, accepted and rejected. 
The table was covered with money, the floor with feathers, and the 
room filled with referees and stake.'iolders. After quietne.ss was re^ 
stored, and after it was found that the management had still on hand 
700 choice five birds immediately at their disposal, Id was agreed to 
declare all matches postponed. 
Scores in the target events were as below: Noa, 1-^6 were shot on 
the first day, Nos. 8-13 on the second day, and Nos, 15 and 18 on the i 
third day, Nos. 7, 14 and 17 were live- bird events, the results of

Bronx Biver Gun Club. 
New Yobk, Jan. 81.— Two members of the Bronx River Gun Club 
met on Samrday last at the club's grounds (Miller AZorn's). Bayches- 
ter, N. Y., to decide the ownership of class A medal. This'medal be- 
comes the property of the member winning it the greatest number of 
times during the year. On summing up at the end of the year C18B6) 
it was found that P. Pringle had won the medal four tmies, C. H. 
Zorn had also won it four times and tied M. Herrlngton for it once- 
the latter had previously won the medal three times. It was there- 
fore only necessary for Zorn to defeat Herrington to become the 
owner of the prize, and hts failure to defeat Herrington would make 
all three, viz.: Pringle, Zorn and Herrington, a tie with four wins 
each to their credit. It being too dark to shoot at the conclusion of 
the regular event, it was decided to postpone the shooting off of ties 
until Jan. 16, 181j7, on which date Zorn and Herrington met and shot 
off' their tie. The conditions were 85 targets each, unknown angles, 
M Herrmgion llUlllllOlllllll 1 1111101-23

Zorn 00 11 10 w 01 n 10 01 00—5 
The ties between Pringle, Zorn and Herrington will be shot off at '
