FOREST AND STREAM.

"Paid men and the amateurs' money'' is a subject that is at last 
(rttractine tbe atcention it deserves an thR hands of the sportsmen's 
press. For more than two years Forest and Stream has been dig- 
jing away at the shootin? public lo reiard do ihis tnacter, and has 
Been doing it smKle-baoded. It is wicb pleasu'-e, ther^i'orp. that we 
listen, even at this late date, to the intermittent chirps that come 
from our brethren It took our brothers some time to realize he 
true merits of th(* Kose system, but tbev have come to it finally. We 
don't claim tor the Roses.ystem the approval of all shooters; there 
are some who don'c approve of it, but we think "lei know the reason 
why; sgain, there are others who don'c approve of it. and who don't 
eeskWy know the reason why Frr our purt wp are of the opinion that 
it js tbe fairest and most tqmtable way of nivldine purses thai has 
been devised to date, and under it a few experts do not i-un off with 
all the money.

The Target Cfaampionshtp. 
We have been aske4 so ma- y questions in regard to the target 
championship of the .United States; how it originated; who won it 
first, and wha' his sco'e was, and what were the scons of the others 
who competed for i' ; that we have decided to answer all thesp ques- 
tions in a bunch and in type, as it is evident that many people are 
much inte-ested in this c niest, Ot '"ourse the recent match 
between Gilbert and Htikes is answerable for much of this show of 
interest. 
WBERE THE IDEA CAME PROM. 
In Forest and Strkam ot Oct. 19, 1^95, « e gave in full just what our 
ideas of a champiouFhip ^hculd be, and particularly Uid down the 
conriiiions lor a target championship We suggest d that some large 
tournament should be hela at which, on the four days, a series of 
ra<"eR for championship honors Our orrts w ere as follows: 
'It is a rem*' rkable ft^ct that, although target sbootiEg is more than 
a decade old, we have no legitimate champion at that branch of the 
sport. There has never been a real charopionst ip conte.--t at inani- 
mate 'arpe s that we can find a trace of. The Schme zer Arms Oom- 
pany's trf'phy, now held by .Jack Parker, reprefencs only the ctiam- 
pion^hip at inai imate targets thrown from iisps pulled in reverse 
order, called for the sake of breviiy the championsi ip at rev. rsed 
order. There is no lethal champion sho' of America, although ihere 
may be a moral one Were it put to the popular vote, we ttiink there 
would be little doubt about Heikes getting cce mhjoriiy of the votes 
ca^t, no withstanding tbe claims of such men as McMurci y. Van 
Dyke, Dickey, hartlett, Noel Money, Upson, Glover Fu]forO,etc. We 
could add a dozen more names 10 the above b.->t, ea'h one of which 
Would denote a man who has bona fide claims to a try for the cnam- 
pionship. 
"To obtain the right to the title of champion targetshot of America, 
it would be I ecessarv for a shooier 10 prove that he excelled generally 
at I he four branches of the sport now commonly m use; unknovm 
angles expert xu'es, rev°rseo order and pairs * lib a view to ascer- 
ta mug wh'i !« the champion target shot, we would like to see .«ome 
prominent gun club, or some firm interested in the manufacture of 
spor.ing goods, adopi some such plan as ibe foUowina : 
''Get up a (ourcaaient and offer a valuable cup that, shall be em- 
blematic of the championship at targets Let the comJiiions be as 
follows: 100 laroets. unknown angles; 00 targeis, reversed order; 100 
targets, expert system, and £0 pairs. The way to shoot tbe 400 targets 
off might he thus: divioe each of the three first systems into f our 25- 
target events, and the 50 pairs into four everts of 3fc, 16, lOand 10 
pairs, respectively. Make each ^5 or each set of pairs a separate 
event with a solid entrance fee; deduct 5 or lO per cent, from each 
purse to form a fund to be divided be'." een the four hig est averages 
made out of the4j0 targets Let the man makisg the highest a erage 
take the cup. title and 4 ■ r erceni. of tt efuid created as above; the 
three next highest would take 30, 20 and 10 per cent of the ssmefund, 
respeciively. In a four days' tournament, a ;5 at. encli s yle o' shoot- 
ing and one of the sets of pairs might be sho off without interfen'rg 
with a distinct programme, as the contestants in the euampionship 
events would be formed into squads, and could shoot rigUi along in 
all events A^itbout disturbing ti.e routine of the tournament. The 
idea of dividing up the 400 targets into sixteen separate events would 
we toink, serve o keep the entries from fa liog oft" ' 
"Our claim is that the man who ma''e the best general average on 
tbe string of 4 )0 targets at the four oiffer nt8t>les of shooiiog would 
be fairl, entitled to championship honors The condidons governing 
lutiire ch llenges could b 1 easily t .rmula'ed. 
"A tournament thai included in its programme any such champion- 
ship event would surely draw a large < rowd ot shooters, and we think 
the entry list in the championsnip sweeps *ould be highly saii-ifac- 
tory. There, why wouldn't such a scbeme as the above work? What 
ara its weak poiats, and wh'^re does it fall short? Ij3t m have an all- 
round chamijloa at targi^ts " 
CLAIMED By THE K. C. POWDER OOMPANT. 
The first contest, for the Du Pout trophy was held at Baltimore, 
Md , the following week, commencing on Oat 32. It will be remem- 
bered that this was Fred Qiloert's debut in the Eist, aad it was a re- 
markable one. Be won highest honors by carr.^ing off the trophy, 
but we always held thai, his nan licao was a light one Our coof reres 
on 'he handicap committee ivill oear us out in this. He shot splen- 
didly all through the tournameot and made very nearly as high 
an avera>!e a% tne veteran Brewer, even wben placed on the same 
mark. 
Captain A. W. Money, of the E O Powder Company, was present 
at the shoot, and vas busy making pla'is for his c imp my's bie* tour- 
nainen' ihat was to come off in the following May. B.i had read our 
idi^as on he sunj^et of a target champio'iahip. and asked us 00 Oct. 
23 to make a 00 e thit his cr)mpi.n7 would run a target champion -hip 
event, upon the lines ou lined in Fork.st and Stkbam of the preceding 
week, at its rouruament in 1898 
To 'bow tbe popularit.v ot tne scheme, and to prove that we had hit 
the right nation tbebeid we may say that on our return to New 
York, we received a lefer from the representative of another large 
powder oompan.v asking us to make a similar claim for a tournament 
purposed to t»B given oy his company. Oq ou'* wrin'ng him of Capt. 
Money's priority of eJdim, as we took it to be, the gentleman 
promptly and courteously withdrew all i-laims, stating that he would 
not wish to mix up target championships 
KBVBRBED ORDBR LEFT OUT. 
After much discussion i., wa-j agreed to leave out the 100 targets at 
reversed orcier, that style of shooting being so little recognized out 
We I and io the South. Otherwise the conditions were precisely as 
we hal outlined them. 
There can de no qu stion as to the success of the shoot. The entry 
lists were e lormous (119 shooters takmg part on the first day), 
alchough surpassed I it^r by those of the Hhk trd Powder Company at 
Cincinnati two »veeks later. Twenty->ievAri shooters took part in the

the good cf ^ulforo ; when he had broken 17 out of his '20 there was a

GILBERT, THE WINNER. 
"Fred Gilbert, whom Otiarlie Grimm has now brought twice from 
Sp rit Lake, la , to take back cups to that little home of his, should 
have a long career befons him, as ne is q ^Ite young yet. being only 
about thirty years of age. Fred is quioe a snot as may be judged 
from his work durinn the past twelve months. In returning lUauks 
for the cup, tie atiributed his position to 'luck and the rabbit foot.' 
We are .stanch believers ourselves in the target-smisbing capioilities 
of a raubii's foot but in this instance we tancy Gubert's skill as an 
all-round sho stood turn in mor« stead. 
'•Tbe championsnip events were shot as follows: The 100 targets, 
unsnown angles, were dividfd into four events of 2j each, one i5- 
target event being decided each day on No. 1 sec of traps. The 100 
targets, expert rule, an;i the 61 pairs werd soot on No. 4 set of traps. 
The i( 0 expert rule were divided like the 100 uokno >n angles, but the 
50 pairs wtre tpiit up into two events of lo pairs and two of 10 pairs. 
Tbe table belo/v gives the result of each event that was included 
unaer the head of -championship events ' The table also shows the 
g< and aggregate anu the posiiioa of each man at the ttntsh. It will be 
noted that twenty-six men shot in all the championship events." 
The table referreu to ran as f jllows, the pairs being divided into 
two events of 5 pairs each sho on tne first two days, and two of 10 
pairs each shot on the last two days:
