Parker's Seventh Annual Tournament. 
Detroit. Mich., Sept. 13.— Parker's seventh annual tournameot was 
not so well attended as some of its predecessors. It seems impossible 
to get together nowadays one of the old-time gatherings. In the 
spring of '91, at a shoot given here, the entries in some of the events 
reached 103. " This shows that some of the best tournaments have 
been held right here in Detroit, but at that time tournaments were 
not nearly so numerous as they are now. 
While the attendance at this shoot was not large, those who were 
present had a very pleasant time, and were at no great expense. 
The programme was not such as to draw shooters from any great 
distance, there being no added money. However, there were some 
very handsome and valuable prizes, consisting prmeipally of ammu- 
nition, trophies, and articles useful to the sportsmen; so that the for- 
tunate ones were well repaid for their trip. 
The local shooters endeavored in every way to make it pleasant 
and agreeable. 
On Wednesday night all the visiting shooters were given a yacht 
ride on Com. Scotten's stanch and handsome little steam yacht 
Wanda The trip lasted from 7:30 until 12, and as the yacht is" cap- 
able of doing 14 knots an hour, some idea of the distance covered can 
be gained. The trip was down the Detroit River, clear into Lake Erie. 
A perfectly clear atmosphere and a full moon added much to the 
pleasiu-e of the trip. 
OOKDITIONS. 
The shoot was held on the Pastime Gun Club's ground, a beautiful 
level strip of ground with ample facilities for accommodating any 
number of shooters. The background was very good; of course, 
there may be some who do not agreejwith us. There were a few trees 
on the bank of the Detroit River that offered an excuse for some who 
had just missed a straightaway, though perhaps not a very plausible 
one. 
There were two sets of traps in position arranged on the Sergeant 
system. These were empires and that kind of targets were used. It 
will be generally understood that the 21yds. rise style of shooting was 
after Jack Parker's idea— plenty hard. Perhaps some will recall the 
efforts of the experts to bankrupt Jack several years ago, when he 
paid a fixed amotmt for a place. 
THE TALKNT AND OTHERS. 
There were present Milt Lindsiey, his wife, Wanda, and Harry 
King, of Cincinnati, representing the King's Powder Co. and Peters 
Cartridge Co.; R. O. Heikes, of Dayton, O , taking care of the Win- 
chester interest and shooting E C; Jack Fanning, formerly of San 
Francisco, but now of Bat^avia, N. Y., Gold Dust's husthng and popu- 
lar representative; Harvey McMurchy, of Syracuse, who so ably 
takes care of the Smith gun and its interest; also C. D. Hagerman. of 
Wymore, Neb. ; Thomas Graham, of Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. ; Elmer 
Apperson, of Kokomo, Ind.; J L Head, of Peru, Ind.; W. H. Osmun, 
Pontiac; D. Carpenter, Battle Creek; O. H. Clark, Wyandotte. 
GENERAL AVERAGES. 
Seven men shot through the entire programme for the four days, and 
it follows naturally that Heikes, who led the procession each day, is on 
top in this respect also. Thereby he adds a little more jewelry to his 
collection, as an elegant gold button goes with the honor. Fanning is 
second with the good average 91.2, but only two birds ahead of Gra- 
ham, who has 90.9. There was a great strugle between this pair for 
second position. Renick won a button similar to that of Heikes'; this 
was given to the amateur making the best average in all events, but 
shooting for merchandise only.

First 
Day, 
Tuesday, 
Sept. 
7. 
The opening day of the tournament was really all the management 
i could desire, though the attendance was rather light. The principal 
■ event of the day was the two-men team race. The scores made by 
the different teams was a matter of much comment, as well as a sur- 
, prise to the contestants. Just think of 82 out of 100 winning first, 
I with a combination like Heikes and McMurchy to go against. Then, 
too, this pair had to be content with second place, as Sailor Sharkey 
(Fanning) and Graham beat them out one bird. Heikes and Fanning 
scored 45 each, but their respective running mates scored 37 and 36. 
By Graham '>eating McMurchy a bird, Fanning and Graham get a suit 
I of clothes each. 
The score in the team race was as follows: Fanning 45, Graham 37 
—82. Heikes 45, McMurchy 36-81. Corbett 42, Fox 37— 79. Parker 
48, Wood 34—77. Osmun 43, Scollen 32—75. Head 40, Dewitt 33 -73. 
Renick 36, King 32-68. Clark 34, Milton 81-£5. Tuttle32, KleuaSl— 63. 
Quandt 29, Fullbaum 28-57. 
The high average for the day was made by Heikes, 93.3; Panning 
is next with 90.5. Then comes two'amateurs, Graham 88.6 and Head 
85.5. 
Twenty-six shooters in all participating, and their respective scores 
and averages are shown in the table appended. No. 5 is the team 
race; it is not customary to include such events in the general aver- 
age, but at this tournament one has to compete in all events to be 
eligible for average money, and that is why we have included this 
event in computing our averages.

Second Day, Wednesday, Sept. 8. 
The feature of to-day's programme was the 50-bird race for the 
handsome Gillman & Barnes medal. The conditions governing this 
event are 50 targets, 21yds. rise, use of both barrels. This proved to 
be quite a contest, and was eventually won by Graham on the great 
[■score of 47 out of 50. This is very likely the record on this kind of 
shooting, and it is safe to predict that it will be a long time hefore it 
; is equaled or excelled. Graham was in great form in this event; he 
. l an his first 24 straight and then dropped his 25lh. Then again he 
lost his 50th target In his last string; of 25. McMurchy was also in 
evidence in this event, as he scored 46 
Heikes again leads in the average for the day with 1 less than on 
the previous day, though his average for this day is more credit- 
able, as 50 of these targets were 21yds. rise. Then, too, his average 
is somewhat greater, as he scored 19 out of 20 in two extra sweeps, 
one of which was a double event at 5 pair. He has one run to his 
credit of over 70 straight, as he scored 79 out of his last 80, including 
the extras above-mentioned. Graham shot m elegant form through- 
out, aud is second with 91.6. Fanning is thh-d with 91.1, and Wood 
is fourth with 87.7. 
The weather was bright and clear, but -unusually warm for this 
latitude at this season of the year. 
Thirty-six shooters participated, a number somewhat greater than 
yesterday. The following names do not appear in the table, as they 
shot only in one event or failed to make an average of 55 per cent. ; 
Wanda, Anspack, Genecke, Lyman Kemp, Tuttle, Esper, Johnson! 
L arty, Eron and Stoll. ' 
I be programme for to-day was precisely like that of the previous 
i .y, with ihe exception that the 50-bird event was shot under differ- 
tnl conditions, a mention of which has been made above.

Third Day. Sept. 9. 
Heikes not only maintained the pace he has set all along, but even 
cut out a faster clip to-day. In the van, of course, but look at that 
, percentage, 96.1 for 180 shot at. Fanning is second with 93.3, while 
Graham is third with 92.7. Then comes Schwind with 87.2. The 50- 
bird event was a handicap event, with extra allowance of birds to 
shoot at. First prize in this event was a diamond watch charm, do- 
nated by the King's Powder Co. Here Heikes was again very much 
in evidence, as was Graham, also a scratch man. Each of these 
scored 48, a total greater than any one else could reach, even with 
their extra allowance of targets. This is one of the few instances 
where a scratch man won out in a handicap. Fanning, also scratch, 
scored 47; Fleicher scored 46, and 1 of his 2 extra allowance, which 
made him 47. Schwind broke 44, and 3 extra ones, so he had a total 
of 47, too. The tie between Heikes and Graham was not shot off, as 
Heikes very generously relinquished his claims to the trophy. 
The weather was red hot, as the natives here put it. Linen suits 
and fans were about the proper thing to-day. Quite a number of 
shooters other than those whose names appear in the table below 
participated. The following took part in but one event, or failed to 
make an average of 55 per cent.: Lorenz, Miller, Loranger, Shaw, 
Clark, Hayes, Bryan, Cooper, Schroeder, Apperson, Wollf, Roche, 
Slotts, Wanda and Doran,

Fourth Day, Sept. 1 0. 
The shoot to-day was similar in many respects to that of the pre- 
vious days, the programme being identically the same; while the 
weather was, if anything, a little more sultry. ' As usual, Heikes also 
was high average. The 50 bird event was a handicap affair, though 
only one of distance, the scratch man shooting from the 21yds. mark. 
Therefore, Heikes's score of 46 in this event, which landed him in the 
duck boat, is really better than it looks on paper. Graham, too, shot 
well in this event, but lost his last hlrd, when it appeared to be not a 
very hard one and when there was no 45. Corbett, with 44, won a 
half case of hair restorer, as did Marks, who scored 43. There were 
ten prizss in this event; the principal ones are those mentioned 
above. 
Heikes had high average, closely followed by Graham, who was 
second, a bird behind Heikes. McMurchy and Fanning tied for third 
place, BIcMuichy running the last 45 straight, though the table shows 
the last 60 straight. He, however, made that 15 straight in the sixth 
event before he shot his last string of 25 in the fifth event. 
The aggregate number of shooters participating to-day was twenty- 
nine. Bryan and T. Cavanaugh shot in but one event. The other 
Cavanaugh, whose name appears in the table is a thirteen -year- old 
boy, who handles a gun very well for a boy of his age.

Massachusetts Association. 
•"HAVERmiit., Mass., Sept. 4.— The third shoot, series '97 and '98, of the 
Massachusetts State Shooting Association, was given on the grounds 
of the Haverhill Gun Club, in this city Wednesday, Sept. 1. 
The day was all that could be desired, and the attendance was a 
fairly good one, though not what had been anticipated. Nearly 
forty shooters participated in the shoot at some time during the day, 
although some of them were a trifle late for the whole programme. 
The first contingent of shooters from out of town arrived at the 
grounds by 9:30 A. M. and at 10 o'clock, as had been announced, 
shooting commenced. 
The programme called for 240 targets, and it was shot straight 
through, and two or three extra events as well, besides those on the 
card. 
At 1 o'clock a bountiful lunch was served by caterer Currier be- 
neath the shade of a tent pitched on the club grounds, which was 
heartily appreciated by the hungry sportsmen, and then the work of 
smashing the asphalts was resumed. 
Herewith I hand you the events in tabulated form, and the scores 
made:
