bi'llseyes, $4; for third greatest nunaber of bullseyes, $3, 
Originally the conditions read that shooting on the bullseye target 
would close on Friday night. After the programme bad been issued 
it was found perfectly practicable to measure all bullseyes shot eacb 
day on the following morning.prior to thp commencement of the shoot- 
ing for that oay at 1 P M. This left it possible to continue bullseye 
shooting up to within a short time of closing the ranges for good on 
Saturday evenine, March ""O. Each day's record on this target were 
posted on the bulletin board. For a long time— in fact, up to the very 
last minute— Charlie Horney's bullseye of 18, made early in the tour- 
nament, stood in first place. When it came to measuring up the 
bullseyes made on Saturday ("he last day of thetournamen ), a shout 
proclaimed that Michael Dorrler had passed Hormy's mark with 
■ one of 16. This gave Dorrler and the Greenville boys first place in 
the buUse.ye contest 
In the fight for the premiums for most bullseyes H D. Muller, 
chairman of the tournament committee, was easily first with a total 
-^f 186; J. Fa'^klamm, of New York city, came next with 124, and Gus 
Zimmerman third with 96.

THE ZIMMEBMAN TBOPHY. 
As announced in the programme, Gus Zimmerman, the chairman 
of the referee committee, donated a handsome bronze trophy for 
competition at this tournament. The conditions agreed upon for this 
contest were as follows: Open to all, 5 tickets of 3 shots each, en- 
trance $2 for 5 tickets, no re entry, 2 best tickets to count, to be shot 
on Zimmernnan special target, distance 100ft. exact, any ,22 short 
caliber rifle allowed. 
Under the conditions it was anybody's match. The target was a 
peculiar one. having the same characteristics in a measure that be- 
long to the man target, a line shot having more value than a side 
Shot An illustration of this will be seen from the winning targets of 
M Dorrler, given herewith. 
In this contest nothing really dangerous was made until Friday 
night, when Charles Borney made 66 out of a possible 72. He was 
congratulated all round ard looked upon as an almost certain winner. 
On Saturday evening, about? o'clock, however, M. Dorrler got to work 
on the Zimmerman tarset and rol ed up 66—34 and S3— as his "two 
best." This tied Horney's total and a shoot-offi for the trophy was 
necessary. The committee decided that Messrs Dorrler and Horne.y 
should shoot off under the same conditions that the original match 
called for, viz : 5 tickets of 3 shots each, best two to count. On the 
shoot-off Dorrler won easily with 67 {34 and 33) to Horney's 58. Thus 
in the shoot-off Dorrler beat his first score. 
A casual examination of the Zimmerman target may give some 
people the idea that it is not a hard target. As a matter of fact only 
one shooter out of all those who shot in this contest made a highest 
possible. His name was P. Uhler, of Harlem, New York city, and 
the next, best he could do was a 201 (Note.— The first time the Zim- 
merman target was tried in the Zettler 75ft. gallery range by Gus 
Zimmerman himself he made a 36, then a 31, and something lower 
the next time.) 
M. Dorrler thus placed himself at the head of the list once more, 
and made a record of three out of four for him and the Greenville 
Rifle Club.
