On June 39 Miss Helen Woodruff Smith, daughter of 
James D. Smith, New York Y. C, was married on board of 
the schooner yacht Viking, the groom being Homer S. Cum- 
mings. The yacht left Stamford, the home of Mr. Smith, 
early in the morning, convoyed by the steam yacht Halcyon, 
Com. Howard C. Smith, Stamford Y. C. both anchoring off 
Larchmont, where the groom and his party came aboard. 
The ceremony, performed by the Rev. Dr. E,. H. P. Vail, of 
Stamford, took place on the quarterdeck of the Viking, under 
a bower of roses. The Halcyon then took the schooner in 
tow, and they returned to Stamford, where a reception was 
held at Mr. Smith's country place. Linden Lodge. Mr. and 
Mrs. Cummings sailed on the Normannia for Europe on 
July 1. 
Theresa, steam yacht, G. Sidenberg, has been chartered to 
R. A, C. Smith, of New York, through the Gas Engine & 
Power Co.'s agency. 
Eranklin Bassford, the marine artist of New York, com- 
mitted suicide on June 28 by shooting himself on board of 
Lariva, an experimental launch on which he had been work- 
ing for some time. Mr. Bassford was best known ae a painter 
of yachts and vessels, but he was also deeply interested in 
designing, having many theories of his own. He gave much 
attention to model yachts, and for some time contributed 
articles on this subject to Outing. The launch on which he 
met his death was designed by him, being 45ft. over all, 30ft. 
1. w.l., and lift. 9m. beam, with an Alco-Vapor motor. 
Through some ideas of his own, Mr. Bassford expected to 
realize a high speed, and to demonstrate some important 
discoA'eries applicable to larger vessels. He had met with 
those disappointments incident to experimental work of this 
kind, and was unable to raise the money necessary to the 
carrying out of his plans. 
Mr. R. B. Burchard, yachting editor of Outing, was mar- 
ried on June 26 to Miss Edith Russell Church. 
Yampa, schr., R. S. Palmer, was at Kiel, Prussia, on July 
2, from Southampton. Mr Palmer and his guests witnessed 
the naval pageant on the .Solent from the yacht. 
The fin-keel Vencedor was under way at Larchmont on 
Monday, but did not start in the race. It is proposed to give 
her a new rig before trying her speed on salt water.

Club secretaries are invited to send their scores for publication in

Ties in all events are considered as divided unless othermise reported. 
Mail all such matter to Forest and Stream Publishing Company, SU6

The New Jersey State Sportsmen's Association, or more correctly 
speaking, The New Jersey State Association for the Protection of 
Fish and Game, will hold its annual meeting at Taylor's hotel, Jersey 
City, 2 P M., July 13. The committee appointed to disentangle the 
muddle of reorganizing this old New Jersey body of trap shoo' ers 
has done a lot of work, and will report at the meeting of July 18 with 
a brand-new constitution and by-laws, and a brand new set of up-to- 
date trap-sbootine rules It is also practically certain that a Stat« 
shoot will be held the latter part of Septem ber of this year, and that 
the same shoot wUl be held not many miles from E]izat)eth. The 
choice of Elizabeth for such a rendezvous would be a capital move 
on the part of the association, as the railroad and trolley car facilities 
cf that city can scarcely be beaten. Clubs desirous of joining the 
association should lose no time in sending in their names to the secre- 
tary of the association, Mr Colin R. Wise, of Passaic, N. J The an- 
nual dues will be merely a nominal sum, and the benefl^ts to the trap- 
shooters of the State to be derived from a real live organization are 
very large in comparison to the fees for either clubs or individual 
members. And the association will not, we learn, start absolutely 
penniless, as old outslandmg accounts to the credit of the association 
are, we understand, to be paid in full. 
Mr.E. C. Maxfleld, secretary of the Central Gun Club, of Duluth, 
Minn., writes us under date of June 2P, as follows: " The Central Gun 
Club, of Duluth, will hold its fifth annual tournament on July 28 and 
29, 1897, at Duluth, Mion. This will be a strictly amateur tournament 
and professionals and manufacturers' agents will be barred from 
shooting for any of the money or prizes, though if they wish to show 
rff their guns and ammunition they will be allowed to do so by simply 
paying for their birds. The Rose system, four moneys will be used, 
and there will b^ a large and valuable list of average prizes gi^en. 
Programmes will be ready about July 12 and will be mailed upon ap- 
plication. This shoot will be one of the largest ever given in the 
No'lhwest and will be well worth attending." 
The secretary of the Stevens House Gun Club, of Lake Placid, N.Y., 
Mr. A. H. Kallies, writes us that "the Stevens House Gun Club opened 
its season of lt97 on Tuesday last. June 29 Ten members of the 
club gathered on the grounds to inaugurate the season, which lasts 
uulil Oct. 15 Some fine scores were made, C. A. Stevens and A. H 
Kallies running straight in a ! 5 target event. The club, which was 
organized expressly fi r the benefit of the sportsmen visiting the Ad- 
irondacks, will be pleaded to entertain all shooters on its grounds. 
The grounds are ideated on beautiful Lake Placid, only three min- 
utes' walk from the 'Big' Stevens House, The club would be 
pleased to arrange a few team matches with other hotel clubs or 
nearby gun clubs." 
Louis Schortemeier has been striking his gait of late on live birds. 
In four contests recently at the club shoots of the Jeannette Gun 
Club, of New York, a club that holds its shoots at Guttenburg race 
track, he scored three wins for the Class A badge, winning it out- 
right His distance was 28yds., and in his three wins he scored, in- 
cluding shoot-OA's, 31 out of 32 shot at. Schorty shoots a 12-gauge 
Smith, with Whitworth steel barrels. His load is 50grs. of American 
E C. No 1 in a Sin. L^. M. C. Trap shell, wadded as follow*: one V. L. 
& D. Field wad, one % V L. & D. 11% felt wad, iiia. U M. C felt 
wad, ^ia. pink edge, and one thin black edge; be uses ii^oz. of 
Tatham's No. 7}^ chilled shot in the right barrel, the same amount of 
Tatbam's No. 7 chilled in the left barrel. 
Tom Keller is home again after a successful trip in the West. Tom 
has disguised himself by removing the hairs from his upper lip, ana 
gives as his reason for doing so, ihi) fact that Bourke Cockrane hav 
ing attained a certain amount of notoriety by shaving off his mus- 
tache, and that he and Bourke, etc , etc. But Tee Kay had muck of 
other matters to talk about; i-hiefly, and perhaps naturally, the suc- 
cess that has attended the efforts of those who are using his Aim's 
powder— King's Smokeless-in so many of the big shoots of recent 
date. -'.And look what I did at Sioux City !'' says Tom ; and thereat 
his bosom swelled until he measured full 58in. 
The Brooklyn (N. Y.) Gun Club will hold another handicap shoot 
for a gold watch. 50 targets, bandicap allowance of extra targets, 
S-' 50 entrance (including targets). The date chosen for the shoot is 
July 21, a Wednesdaj, one of the best days of the week to get a good 
crowd together. The Brooklyn Club's grounds are conveniently lo 
cated at the tenninus of the King's County Elevated R. R., in Brook- 
lyn, access to the grounds being thus very easy indeed. 
L. C. Parker, "the brother of W.F.Parker," and W. F.Parker, 
"the brother of L. C. Parker," both members of the firm of Parker 
Bros , were present at the third tournament of the Connecticut 
Trap-Shooters' League, held at Bridgeport, June 30. Like all the 
others who were present at that shoot, ihf-y did not find the targets 
easy, although Will Parker ran straight in the 15 target extra shot 
after the programme had been completed- And his was the only 
straight, too 
We learn from Mr. Geo, F Day. secretary of the Uxbridge, Mass , 
Gun Club, that: "The Uxbridge Gun Club's challenge to the 'SVorces- 
ter Sportsmen's Club, the Rhode Island Trap Shooting Association, 
and the Woonsocket Gun Club for a team race of eigat men each has 
been accepted. The shoot will be held at Uxbridge on July 17. We 
propose to hold quite a tournament on that date, one of the principal 
features being a merchandise event." 
Trap-shooters are accustomed to hear much about the skill of Mrs. 
Frank Butler (Annie Oakley), Mrs. M. P. Lindsley (Wanda), Mrs. Day 
and Mrs. ShattuJk, in the use of the shotgun at the traps; and with- 
out qtiestion all these ladies are capable of doing some excellent 
work in this line, putting to shame the efforts of many a great, big, 
strong man , But very few ever hear anything about one of the best 
lady shooters in the country— Misskay— that is, Miss Kirkwood, of 
Boston, one of the members of the Boston Gun Club. Any one who 
has kept an eye on the scores made by this club will have noticed that 
the scores of Misskay are away up all the time. 
Jim Elliott's wide-open challenge has caused a lot of talk among 
trap-shooters in general, particularly among the rank and file, and 
our Cincinnati correspondent, Both Eyes, voices what seems to us the 
popular sentiment in regard to Elli6(;t's letter. While we don't be- 
lieve in using strong language to belittle one trophy or another, we 
feel like patting Jim on the hack for his challenge to any shooter who 
has championship aspirations, or who thinks himself a champion. 
Money talks, and Jim's $100 is up. Who is going to be the first to 
cover it? Don't all speak at once, but— we know you won't do that. 
The fourth contest of the Pennsylvania and Ohio Border Gun 
Club League will be held at Meadville, Pa., July 22-23. The Meadville 
Gun Club has arranged a two days' programme for the occasion, all 
events being at targets. These gatherings of the P. & 0. B. G. C. 
League are always well attended, and with, two sets of traps in posi- 
tion, there should be plenty of shooting for all. The purses will be 
divided under the old sys'em, 40. 30, 20 and 10. Shells should be sent 
in care of TP. G. Prenatt, secretary of the club. 
All arrangements for the Interstate Association's tournament at 
Lewiston, Me., Aug. 4-5, under the auspices of the Androscoggin Gun 
Club, will be completed in a few days, and the programme will 
shortly be in the hands of the printer. "The Interstate shoot at Port- 
land last August was one of the best on the circuit, and the one at 
Lewiston this year promises to be its equal in every respect. 
S. A. Tucker's new corduroy shooting coat is causing him some 
anxiety. It is beginning to show some siens of having been worn, 
and has forced a sigh from Tucker as he said: "I'm afraid it won't 
last as long as my other coat." When asked how long the "other 
coat" had lasted, be said, "Twenty-seven years!" Then we agreed 
that Tucker was probably correct in his surmise. 
The Pekin, 111., Gun Club will hold its sixth annual tournament, July 
13-14 The annual tournaments of this club, which is one of the best 
equipped clubs in the State of Illinois outside of Chicago, have 
always been popular gatherings, and this year, with an increased 
amount •f added money and prizes on the list, the Pekia tournament 
promises to be a rattling good shoot. 
Hollywood and Elkwood Park, both prominent shooting grounds in 
the immediate vicinity of Long Branch, N. J , have issued pro- 
grammes for the summer season. The Hollywood Futurity, on July 
10, is about the most important sweepstake event of the summer sea- 
son, and will surely attract a large number of entries. 
The team race between the Bergen County Gun Club, of Hacken* 
sack, N. J., and the Endeavor Gun Club, of Jersey City, shot on Sat- 
urday, June 26, on the grounds of the Haekensack Club, was won by 
the Endeavors with a score of 192 to 186. 
The list of tournaments for Eastern shooters is fast dwindling down 
to the elimination points, but July 14-15, at New Haven, Conn ; Aug, 
4-5, at Lewiston, Me , and Aug 26-27 at Montpelier, Vt., still remain 
to make the trap -shooters' hearts glad. 
Owing to Monday of this week being a national holiday, Forest and 
Stkbast's trap columns are rather handicapped, as no work will be 
done on that day, and the paper will go to press on Tuesday afternoon 
the same as usual 
The next shoot of the Michigan Trap Shooters' League will be held 
at Bay City, July 27-28. The August tournament will be held under 
the auspices of the Kalamazoo Trap-Shooting Club

Mountain 'State Gun Club. 
Parkersburg, W. Va , June 26 —I beg to herewith hand you scores 
made to-day at Parkersbure, W. Va , at hluerocks and live birds. 
The Mountain State Gun Club, nf the above place, gave an all-day 
shoot which was a success from start to finish. Among' those who 
participated from out of town were: E. O. Bower, L. M. Gorham and 
Curt I Hall.Sistersville, W. Va. ; C. E. Verges, Lowell, O., and George 
Alford, Marietta, O. Everything passed off nicely, and all expressed 
themselves as having a grand good time. As will be seen from scores 
inclosed, E. O Bower captured high average at targets, breaking 48 
out of his last 50, while C. E. Verges carried off the honors at live 
birds by killing the i5 straight. 
There is a movement on foot to organize a State sportsmen's asso- 
ciation at an early dat« and hold a .state shoot early in September. 
Ed. O. Bower, secretary Sistersville Rod and Gun Club, of Sisters- 
ville, is in correspondence with the several clubs throughout the 
State, and something definite may be looked for in the near future. 
"The West Virg nia State Sportsmen's Association" will sound 
"kinder" good, thank you.

Calumet Heights Gun Club. 
Chicago, 111, June 26. The regular weekly contest of the Calumet 
Heights Gun Club was held i;o-day. The weather, though warm, was 
most perfect, and while some sought pleasure iu gathwriag bouquets 
of wild flowers in the woods, there being a great variety of the same
