DRIVERS AND TWISTERS. 
It seems that a mistake was made in crediting the A.udubon Gun 
Club, of Buffalo, N. Y.. with the promotion of the tournament held 
recently in that city. The following letter is from a member of the 
Audubon Gun Club who prefers to remain anonymous: "'I notice 
that In your issue of Jan. 30 you state that the midwinter tourna- 
ment at Buffalo, N. Y., was under the management of the Audubon 
Gun Club. This is an error, as the Audubon Gun Club was in no 
way connected with the management of said tournament, it being 
given under the management of Mr WiUiam E. Qarbe, and was held 
at Audubon Park. I would hke to state further that all tournaments 
held by the Buffalo Audubon Club have been successful, and un- 
doubtedly had the one in question been under its management it also 
would have been a success, as the club numbers 125 enthusiastic 
members. By making this correction you will confer a favor on a 
number of members of the Buffalo Audubon Club." 
The Brooklyn Gun Club, of Brooklyn, N. Y., is a new organizatiom 
We have received the following notice in regard to its opening shoot: 
''The opening .shoot of the Brooklyn Gun Club will be held at its 
grounds, Enfield street, near Liberfy avenue, Brooklyn, on Saturday, 
Feb. 13. Sweepstakes will be the order of the day, and shooting will 
commence at 10:30 A. M. Lunch and loaded shells on the grounds. 
Take Kings Coimty Elevated and ride to the end of the road, which 
is within five minutes' walk of the grounds." The Brooklyn Club is 
an orsiaiiization specially gotten up to further the interests of trap- 
shooting in Brooklyn and New York; it is composed of energetic 
members who will leave no stone unturned to make the future of the 
club a success. 
Next week will be a busy one at the grounds of the Bergen County 
Gun Club, of Hackensack, N. J. Ou Fsb. 10 (Wednesday) the second 
contest for the New Jersey amateur championship cup will be shot 
off On Friday, Feb. 12, Lincoln's Birthday, there will be a 100-target 
handicap race, unknown angles, entrance *2, targets extra at 1 cent 
each; there will also be optional sweeps on each 25 targets. A full 
programme of events will be scheduled for each of the above days; 
shooting commences on both days at 10 A.M. The contest for the 
cup and the handicap race will be started at noon on their respective 
days. The club will follow it.s usual (almost unusual for this part of 
the country j custom of entertaining its guests at limch during the 
shoot. 
The quality of the birds at Larchmont cannot be caviled at. Tliey 
■were a splendid lot. "as good as ever were trapped." They were of 
the class known as Gilbert match birds, being specially selected by 
Messrs. Gilbert, of Philadelphia. The price to the shooters may seem 
a httle steep to some people, viz., 90 cents a pair, but they were 
actually worth the money, being all alike, all good and nearly every 
one of them a bird that required the best of work to stop it within 
bounds. 
B A. Welch won the Larchmont Y. C.'s amateur championship 
cup on Jan. 29-30 by scoring 92 out of 100 birds at 30yds. rise and 
21yds. boundary. His nearest competitor was G. S. McAlpin, who 
was second with 84, a difference of 8 birds. This shows how well 
Welch must have shot, particularly when he could reckon among his 
competitors George Wore, Fred Hoey, C. A. Macale.ster, Edgar 
Murphy, T. S. Dando, L. T. Duryea, Dr. Wynn, F. G. Moore, H. B. 
Gilbert, etc. 
Manager Elmer E. Shaner announces that tbfj Interstate Associa- 
tion will hold a two days' tournament at Richmond, Va., AprU 28-^9, 
under the auspices of the West End Gub Club, of that city. This 
makes another good citv on the Association's list for 1897, the tourna- 
ment in the capital of Old Virginny promising to be one of the best on 
its circuit for this season. Richmond should draw shooters from 
Washington, Charlotte, Lynchburg, Charleston, S. C, and any 
amount of other convenient points. 
The boys haa a cold deal as regards weather at San Antonio this 
year. Even the warmth of the greeting and the hospitality tendered 
them by the Big Three could hardly atone for the uncongeniahty of 
the weather. Southern hotels are scarcely ever well fitted to resist 
the attacks of thirteen degrees of fro.st. That's good, brisk weather 
for our climate, but for the South— I And Ferd Van Dyke went 
down with a light spring overcoat! 
The Warren, O., Gun Club held its annual m<5eting and election of 
officers on Jan. 19. The following hst of officers was elected for 
1897: President, O. L. Schoonover; Vice-President. L. F. Craven; 
Secretary, R, W. Ewalt; Treasurer, George H. Jones; Captain, E. A. 
Biery. Last year was a very satisfactory one to the club, and another 
season fully as satisfactory is anticipated for 1897. 
The Altonna, Pa., Rod and Gun Club has elected the following 
ofQcers for 1897: President, Sheriff G. T. Bell (re-elected for the third 
time): Vice-President, W. C. McDonald; Secretary-Treasurer, R. H. 
Fay; Captain, J.F. Killits; Directors: J. H. Davidson..^-. E. Bell, W, 
W. Wilson, Ed. Kottman, W. B. Sands. H. F. Fomey and J. F. 
Killets. 
The Baltimore Sun of a recent Issue is answerable for the an- 
nouncement that at the forthcoming Interstate Association tour- 
nament in that city, April 14-16. there will be two days at targets 
and one day at live birds. Substantial added money attractions are 
promised. 
SweepstBke shooting at live birds takes place every Saturday af- 
ternoon at Elkwood Park. Shooting commences at 1 P. M , so that 
it is an easv matter for anybody from New York or vicinity to get to 
the grounds in plenty of time. Tickets should be bought to Branch- 
port station on the New York & Long Branch Railroad. 
It has been stated that New York was poorly represented at Elk- 
wood Park on the opening day. As a matter of fact, Fred Hoey was 
at home sick, Edgar Murphy was in Philadelphia on business, while 
George Work is taking little interest in shooting owing to his beingso 
seriously out of form. 
Miss Annie O.akley and Frank Kleinz, of Philadelphia, will shoot a 
oO-bird race at Yardville, N. J. (Zwirlein's grounds), on Feb. 22. Kleinz 
has met Miss Oakley twice in live-bird matches, defeating her once 
and tleing the second time with 45 each out of 50 shot at. 
The Riverton Gun niub. of Riverton. N, J., has elected the follow- 
ing officers for 189": President. J. C. S. Davis; Vice-President, C. M. 
Moody Secretary, Moncreiff Cleland; Treasurer, J. C. J Dues; Board 
of Governors: J. C. W. Frismuth, E. B. Showell, S. B. Stinson, H. B. 
Powell and T. S. Dando. 
The Gilbert cup. offered for competiti m on the Carteret grounds 
byH. B Gilbert, is now the propeety of G. S. McAloin. He won it 
forthethirdtimeon Wednesday, Jan. 27, tieing with Hooner on 10 
straight. In the mlss-and-out to settle the tie McAlpin won in the 
second round. 
On the way home from Larchmont on Friday evening the follow- 
ing team race was arranged : McA'pin-Murphy vs Work-Macalester. 
The conditions are lOO live birds per man, 30yds. rise. 30yds. 
boundary, Westminster Kennel Club grounds. No date was fixed for 
the match. 
Joe Baker's win of the Boiling Springs handicap live bird shoot on 
Saturday, Jan. 2-3, came somewhat in the nature of a surprise. A 
score of 20 straight, even from the 27yds. mark, is a good one and is 
something that Baker may well be proud of. 
Twelve 1 5 target events make up the programme for the Washing- 
ton's Birtbdav shoot of the Mountain State Gun Club, of Parkersburg, 
W. Va. The Rose system of dividing pm-ses will be used. 
The Peekskill, N. Y., Gun Club will hold a tournameni, this spring. 
Dates will be chosen and the programme announced in diietime, 
plenty of notice being given i6 avoid clashing of dates. 
The officers of the Upland Gun Club, of Philadelphia, for 1897 are: 
President, JohnW Hulme: Vice President, Holmes Seaman; Secre- 
tary, Harry Rowe; Treasurer, Henry Flounders. 
The Elkwood Park programme for Feb. 22 is a good one and should 
attract shooters to the new grounds. It is published in full elsewhere 
in these columns. ^ ^

The San Antonio Midwinter. 
Although the full report of the San Antonio, Tex., midwinter 
tournament has not come to hand, we are able to give some little de- 
tails about the first and second days' shooting that may prove of in- 
On the first day the weather was extremely cold for a point as far 
south as San Antonio. To keep the boys warm two large flres were 
kept burning in rear of the scores, although some of the old standby.'? 
were strict! v in it as usual. Taking the figures given in the San 
Antonio Daily Express of Wednesday, Jan. it7, we note that of those 
who had shot out their scores in the eight iO-tareret events, Heikes. of 
course, was in the lead with 151 out of 160. Parmelee was second 
with 149 out of 160. Heikea's total was made up of three straights, 
three 19s and two 17s. , „ ., 
The following figures show how the leaders stood : Heikes 151, Par- 
melee 149, Dickey 143, Sergeant and Fulford 142, Grimm 141, Elliott 
140 Wallace Miller 139, Glover 1:^7. Gilbert 13B. Van Dyke 132, Powers 
131. McMurchy was clean off his form, if the flgm-es given are cor- 
rect, as his total for the 160 shot at is only 119. 
The same authority quoted above states that Dr. Carver and C. W. 
Budd were both m bed with the grip. It adds sententiously : "They 
brought it here." Winston, whose total doe.n not appear at all, was 
the luckiest man of the day, winning first money alone in No. 3, his 
straight netting him $55. „ ^ ^ ^ j.^ ^ ^ 
On the second day there were five 30-target events and the contest 
for the Schmelzer trophy on the programme. The Daily Express of 
Jan. 28 says: ''Heikes. as usual, heads the list with 97 out of 1€0" in 
the five 20-target events. Royal Robinson, secretary of the Limited 
Gun Club, of Indianapolis, shot a great gait, scoring one straight and 
three 19s out of the four 20-target events he shot in, . Fulford, Bart- 
lett, Gilbert, Powers, Sergeant and Sexton all made 90 per cent, or 
The contest for he Schmelzer trophy was not finished when dark- 
ness came on, some of the shooter.fi having to finish their scores the 
next morning. Of those who had finished, Heikes led with 82, Ser- 
geant and Sexton were next with 79, Calhoun had 68. and Sumner t-B. 
As matters stood at the end of the second day, Fulford had to break 
19 out of 26 to beat Heikes, CharlieYoung and Ferd. Van Dyke having 
to break 22 to perform the same feat. The contest is at 100 targets, 
reversed order, and the targets at San Antonio were thrown far and 
fast, the angles of No. 1 and No. 5 bemg very acute. 
A MIDWtSTEB SPECIAL^ 
San Antonio, Texas. Feb. 2.— Special to Forest and Stream: The 
midwinter tournament closed on Saturday, Jan. 30. Tne weather 
throughout was wretchedly bad; it sleeted, snowed, hailed ^nd rained 
alternately. Heikes won first average on the first day with 94.3: on 
the second day he led with 97 per cent. ; Parmelee won first average 
on the third day with 93.7; GUbert was first on the fourth day with 
94 1 On the fifth day Heikes was again in the lead with 93 per cent. 
For general averages on ah five days Heikes is first with 92.2; Fulford 
second with 89 8; Parmelee third with 89.2. Heikes, Young and Van 
Dyke tied on 82 for the Schmelzer trophy. Royal Robinson won the 
E. c cup. Paul R. Litzke,

gramme called for ten regular events, which were shot off. No. 7

and high wind kept a lai-ge number of well known marksmen from 
the neighboring towns away. The shooting of Davis, Byer, Stewart,

New York, Jan. 29.— P. F. McKeon and Grant Nichols, members of 
the Cobweb Gun Club, of this city, sbot a 50 bird race to day on the 
grounds of the club at Baychester. There was a foot of snow on the 
ground, and a strong northwest wind blowing directly over the traps. 
The birds were a good lot of strong flyers and took a lot of stopping, 
the white ones in particular being hard to see. Both men shot in ex- 
cellent form, tieing with 45 each. The tie will be shot off some time 
in Februaiy. In the 29th round No. 2 trap broke, the match being 
finished by mutual consent with 4 traps only. Scores:
