Mr. Royal Robinson, secretaj'y of the Limited Gun Club, Indian- 
spolis, Ind.. writes us that his club will hold a live-bird tournament 
Dec. 8-10. On ihe first day there will be four events at 20 sparrows, 
entrance tfi in each event, including sparrows Class shooting; 10 
per cent, of the net purses to be paid as average money to the five

the Grand Central Handicap, 25 pieeons. $25, birds extra. $10 payable 
on or before Nov. 30, post entries $-^0. Distance handicap 25 to 32yds. 
1 1 matters very little whether the Limited Gun Club's tournaments 
are at targets, sparrows or pigeons. The boys know that the appoint- 
ments at the club's grounds are just about perfect, and that those 
who attend the tournaments are well looked after by the members of 
the home club. Mr. Royal Robinson, too, is a hustler, and has a per- 
sonality that helps a great deal when he undertakes the task of draw- 
ing shooters together. The shoot next December should be a lively 
one. 
The exhibition given at Kansas City, Mo., on Friday last by Fred. 
Gilbert and Jim Elliott was a most remarkable one. A total of 249 
out of 250 shot at, only 1 bird getting away (although 6 fell dead out 
of bounds) Is something we are not likely to read about again for 
some years. Gilbert's pluck in plugging away when everything was 
going in favor of Elliott fully deserved the victory he won. Elliott 
was straight up to the 80th round, while Gilbert had 3 dead out of 
bounds. Still, Gilbert did not give up, and the unexpected happened. 
Elliott lost his 80th, following it up with two more losses, his fllst and 
96th, both dead out of bounds. This made them a tie, as Gilbert was 
stlU killing them all. At the 100 mark they were tied with 97 each. 
The shoot off was most exciting. Both men killed straight up to the 
end of tbe 23d round. Then Elliott had the misfortune to see bis 24th 
bird go out of bounds before falling. Gilbert killed his next 2 birds 
and won by 1 bird in a race of practically 125 birds per man. Who 
says that Gilbert has no nerve? Also, who says that he has no cups? 
The E. C. championship cup at targets; the Kansas City Star cham- 
pionship cup at live birds, and the Du Po'nt championship cup at 
live birds. Meanwhile the Cast-Iron badge and its honors remain 
"outer sight " 
Last week we made a note in Drivers and Twisters concerning Mr. 
Higgins, the secretary of the Lafliu & Rand Powder Co., and his in- 
tentions of doing up Ed Taylor on targets. It now looks very much 
as if Mr. Higgins meant what he said when he made the declaration 
referred to. On Thursday last, Oct. 21, Mr. Higgins and Mr. Rasmus, 
the latter a member of the Crescent Athletic Club, of Brooklyn, N. Y. 
(of which club Mr. Higgins is also secretary), went down to Bay Ridge 
for a little practice at targets. They took Old Reliability along with 
them to act as a coach. Prior to commencing work, Mr. Taylor made 
the following speech: "Gentlemen, the targets are flying nicely; your 
guns and ammimition are of the be.'t; the day is perfection. You will 
now break targets, or take to the water." A recent interview with 
Ed Taylor has elicited the fact that he does not believe either Mr. 
Higgins or Mr. Rasmus can swim, judging from the way they went 
after the targets. He also informea us that neither party will get any 
further coaching from him. It looks as if he was "skeered." 
Arthur Bunn, proprietor of Buun's Hotel, Singac, N. J., has the 
reputation of furnishing some of the fastest birds in the country. 
Although we have never been able to get to Singac when one of 
Bunn's handicaps was set for decision, we have heard a great deal 
about the class of bu-ds provided We have noticed also that per- 
centages are never very high, even when the best shots stack up 
against the Singac birds. In connection with the above, we would 
say that Arthur Bunn announces a handicap, 25 birds, $10, birds 
extra, for Thursday of this week, Oct. 28, The hour set for com- 
mencing the event is 12 sharp. Trains leave Chambers street for 
Little Falls at 10:30 and noon ; or shooters can take the trolleys from 
the Erie depot in Paterson direct to Singac. 
A dispatch from New Haven to a city daily, dated Oct. 15, gives 
the following information in regard to the intercollegiate trophy: 
"The shoot to decide whether Yale or Princeton shall keep the inter- 
collegiate trophy will be held this autumn at the grounds ot the New 
Haven Gun Club, or at Bay Chester, N Y., on a date yet to be deciaed. 
The trophy was offered on the condition that it should become the 
property of the college that first wins it three times. Yale and 
Princeton have each won it twice, and the place of the deciding shoot 
was left to Yale. Harvard has won it once. In this dual shoot each 
man on the team of five will shoot at 60 birds, instead of 30 as in the 
regular shoot. Preliminary practice for the trials to determine tne 
make up of the Yale team will begin the first of next week." 
Charleston, W. Va., is to have a shoot on Thursday of this week. 
The programme consists of ten 15-targei events, $1 entrance, with 
three moneys under twelve entries; four moneys, twelve entries or 
more. There will also be an extra event at 25 targets, $1 entrance, 
with a Wmchester repeating shotgun as the prize; it takes ten entries 
to fill this event. A handicap is attached to winning first money in 
any event. The programme states: "Winners of first money shoot 
from two known (7) traps, known angles, in next event." The shoot 
will be managed by Dr. John Bishop, of Charleston, and by J. L. 
Pentz and Dr. T. C. Stotler, of Harper's Ferry, W. Va, 
O. C. Beveridge. the "dominie," shot like a crackerjack at the 
Brooklyn Gun Club last Saturday afternoon. He broke 25 straight in 
the club shoot, and then ran another 24 straight before he missed. A 
run of 49 straight on the grounds of that club, stamps the "dominie" 
as something rather warm. 
The Baltimore Association's tournament, Oct. 19-93, was a pleasant 
gathering. Somehow these Baltimore shoots are always et)j^yable: 
tne grounds are not so very accessible, but once there, everything is 
very comfortable, and the Baltimoreaos make you feel at home er^ry 
time. 
We heard of Old Hoss last week. It seems that the Flicker's Nest, 
Hoss's sanctum, is just the same as ever. When we saw It last it 
was full of curios and things; among the latter were several medals 
that Hoss won a few years ago when he, Jim Crow and Elmer Shaner 
were the crackerjacKs of Pittsburg. Old Hoss has expressed his de- 
termination of being present at the next Grand American Handicap, 
and promises to be the first bona, fide entry on the list. "I want to 
make a new record." said he; "I want to be the first to enter, the 
first to shoot and the first to be out of the race. If they'll let me 
shoot first, I can easily make the record, and it'll be a hard one to 
beat." 
The seventh monthly shoot of the Philadelphia Trap-Shooters 
League will be held Nov. 6, on the grounds of the Silver Lake Gim 
Club, Point House road and Pennsylvania R. R. Co. Two sets of 
expert traps will be used. Sweepstake shooting eommences at 
10 A. M. ; team race at 2 P. M., sharp. The grounds can be reached 
from the Pennsylvania and the Reading railroad depots by taking 
Market street cars to Second; down Second to MifiElin, where coaches 
will convey shooters to the grounds. Coaches leave Second and 
Mifflmat9:30. 10:30 and 11:80 A.M., and at 1. 1:30, 2, 2:80 and 3 P. M 
The sweepstakes are open to all. 
The programme for the Itasca Gun Club's tournament, Oct, 29-80, 
was received too late for us to give any extended notice of the same. 
From the list of merchandise prizes offered for competition, it looks 
as if the shoot ought to be a success, if "plunder" is any sort of a 
drawing card in the vicinity of Grand Rapids, Itasca county, Minn. 
Professionals being barred, the amateurs cannot have any kick com- 
ing if they don't all get that they want. The purses will be divided 
into four moneys under the Rose system. 
The Glenwood Gun Club, of Newburgh, N. Y., Is a lively young 
organization, and manages to throw a lot of targets nowadays. On 
Oct. 14 it held a shoot on its grounds, the main event being a handi- 
cap, the number of targets allowed ranging from 25 to 40. There 
were twenty eight entries in this race, the prizes being merchandise. 
A total of twenty-eight shooters is something for any club to be proud 
of getting together as things are now. Jesse Rhodes, of Fisbkill 
Landing, N. Y.. led the band with 28 out of 33. 
Another programme that arrived too late for any advance notices 
was the one prepared for the tournament of the Maple City Gun 
Club, Norwalk, O , Oct. 27-28. At this tournament the old percent- 
age system of dividing purses will be used, and "droppeis" will 
forfeit their entrance fees. All targets at this tournament will be 
thrown from a magautrap, and will consequently be bluerocks. 
Noel E. Money, secretary of the American E. C & Scnultze Powder 
Comp.my, Limited, sailed for England on Wednesday last, Oct. 20. 
He expects to he away until after Christmas, and will put in a good 
part of his time renewing his acquaintance with English partridges 
and pheasants; he will also manage to take a day or two now and 
then with the hounds. He is, m short, taking a well-earned vaca- 
tion. 
Harry Thurman and Vandergrift shot a tie race for the Keystone 
Shootmg League's trophy on Haturday afternoon. On the shoot off 
Father Time won. Vandergrift failing on one of his five tie birds. The 
club shoot is at 10 birds. Among those who took part as guests of the 
club were Will King, Bessemer and McPherson, of Pittsburg, Pa. 
Between them they scored 28 out of 30 shot at, McPherson, who was 
far from well, dropping both the lost birds. 
We learn from W. H. Huck, secretary of the New Jersey State Sports 
men's Association, that the tie between the Boiling Springs Gun 
Club's No. 1 team and the East Side Gun Club, of Newark, will not be 
shot off this week, as originally announced. The postponement is 
made necessary by the absence of one of the members of the Boiling 
Springs Club (Noel E. Money) in Europe. 
W. H. Wolstencroft, of the Keystone Shooting League, Holmeshurg 
Junction, Pa., retains the title to the Austin expert rules cup won by 
him on Labor Day at Marion, N. J. The race on Saturday was a rim 
away affair; Wolstencroft scored 83 to his opponent's 67. We won't 
say who his opponent was just at present. 
Elmer Shaner and "Our Jim Denny's dog Rupert" are nnw out in 
the fields and woods making it warm for quail and ruffed grouse It 
isn't often Elmer gets a chance to steal away from the Smoky City, 
but he does it as often as possible. 
With four days in Baltimore last week, and one in Philadelphia, 
Drivers and Twisters are likely to be scarce this week. Not but what 
there were plenty at Baltimore; there were— and several of them got 
away. Likewise a few at the Keystone Shooting League's grounds 
on Saturday ! 
RoUa Heikes is certainly a wonder. He not only made high aver- 
age on both of the target days, but he made a record of 71 out of 
72 on the two live-bird days. On targets, it was Heibes first and the 
rest nowhere, when it came to figuring up the general averages. 
The Brooklyn Gun Club's field day next Thursday, Oct. 28, prom- 
ises to be a pleasant affair. John Wright says that everything will 
be done to make the boys have a good time; and when John says so 
—it goes. 
U. M. C., Jr., is the title now worn by John J. Hallowell. The man- 
tle of U. M. C. Thomas has been left in Mr. Halloweh's charge during 
Mr. Thomas's absence in Europe. 
The regular monthly shoot for the E. C. cup will take pisice on the 
grounds of the Bergen County Gun Club, Hackensack, N. J., Satur- 
day next, Oct. .30, at 2 P. M. 
U. M C., Jr.is taking part in the tournament of the Rochester, 
N. Y.. Rod and Gun Club this week. The dates of the shoot are Oct. 
26-27.'

Inter-Mountain Sportsmen's Association. 
Cripple Creek. Colo., Oct. 18.— The first annual tournament of the 
Inter- Slountain Sportsmen's Association ended Saturday, Oct. 16. 
The tournament was held on the Cripple Creek Gun Club's ground, 
at Mt. Piska Park, which has an elevation of 9,918ft. above sea level. 
From this point you can get as good a view of the Rocky Mountain 
scenery as can be obtained anywhere; and also the wonderful gold 
fields of the district can be viewed with amazement. 
We expected a large attendance, but were disappointed, as no 
State was represented except Coloraido; and only a very poor attend- 
ance from it. Our Association includes Colorado, Utah. Wyoming, 
Arizona, New Mexico, Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri. We expected 
delegations of shooters from Ogden, Utah; Telluride, Colo.; and 
Leadville, Colo.; but owing' to the snowstorm in the mountains they 
did not come. "The grounds were fixed up in good shape through the 
untiring efforts of our committee, Messrs. Mason. Macaffree and 
Garrett, and everything moved along very smoothly, not excepting 
the bluerocks, which were thrown from a magautrap, and which 
were thrown hard. 
First Day, Oct. 1 -4-. 
The first day opened clear and pleasant, but with a strong breeze, 
which made the shooting hard. Funk and Mason were high in the 
average with 163 out of 180; West and Macaffree, with 160 out of 180.

scores. The snow fell aU day and the air was very cold. Only 
six shooters reported on the grounds, although there were sev- 
eral new ones who came the night before, but thought the weather 
too bad to shoot. Funk and Mason tied again to-day with ISl each 
out of 145. Macaffree 130 out of 145, and Garrett 127 out of 145. Fol-

The Association had a badge made of Cripple Creek gold, valued at 
J50, to be given to the shooter making high average for the three 
days' shoot. This was won by C. L. Funk, of Pueblo, who led by 2 
birds. Mason, of Cripple Creek, was second. Taking all in all, the 
altitude, weather, and the way the targets were thrown, the scores 
made were very good, although there were but four men who shot 
through the entire programme. Following are the scores for the

DAYTON vs. TRENTON. 
Oci. IS.— In a recent match between ten men of the Trenton Gun 
Club and a similar number of the Dayton Gun Club, the Dayton team 
won by 24 targets. The match took place at Monmouth Junction on 
the grounds of the Dayton Gun Club. E. C. Hutchinson did the best 
work for Trenton team, breaking 25 out of the 30. F. Rose followed 
with 24, and Charles Allen with 23. C. McDonald and P. Emmons, of 
the Dayton, carried off the honors of breaking more than any shoot«r 
on either team, only missing 4.

Chxcaqo, 111., Oct. 25.— Special to Forest and Stream: Elliott has 
challenged Gilbert for the Du Pont cup. The Kansas City men in- 
lormally prefer the following schedule: Du Pont cup race, Chicago, 
Dec. 7; Star cup, Dec. 9; intercity team shoot, Dec. 10-11. This 
schedule is impossible, as the Star cup's time elapses on Dec. 7. 
Kansas City has listed fifty-six men for the inter-city team race; the 
committee meets at the Winconsin Club, Kansas City, on Wednesday 
evening to select twenty men out of the above fifty-sis. The ten 
men to represent the city will be selected from the twenty just be- 
fore a start is made tor Chicago. A strong delegation is to come 
from Kansas City with the team. E. HorriJH,
