Oct. 80.— the Calumet Heights Club held its regular weekly contest 
to-day, with a moderate attendance. There was an overi'ast sky and 
a very strong wind in the face of the traps; a straightaway target 
would soar skyward to a heiabt of 75ft. and invariably be under- 
shot. This fact accounts largely for the ordinary scores following. 
Twenty-five targets, known traps, unknown angles; classified:

THE COOK CO MAGUK E. C, C^ALLB^&E CUP 
The followlDg communication is at hand from Mr. A. O. Paterson> 
who has just challenged Mr. W. K Morgan for the E 0. challenge 
cup. for a date not yet fixed. Mr. Morgan has accepted Mr. Pater- 
son's challenge, and the date will soon be set for the race, which is 
anybody's event at this writing, as both men are in good fettle. Mr. 
Paterson is of the belief that, as the cup was put up originally for the 
shooters of Cook Co., it should be open only to those shooters, even 
in case of the disbandment of the League, which is a matter not yet 
in the least foregone There is no talk yet which warrants the sta e- 
ment that the Cook Co. League will disband. Ttie year has been one 
of very general satisfaction. Mr. Paterson says: 
"Chicago, Oct. 23.— I notice an article published in this week's issue 
of the American Field, which relates to the challenge cup donated 
last year by the E. U. Powder Co. to the Cook County Trap- Shooters' 
League, and which was shot for and won. The conditioD.s at the 
time of donation were that the winner of the cup wou'd be subject to 
challenge by any member of the League. The item now publisned as 
showing the conditions is, in one instance, to the effect that 'in the 
event of the disbandment of the League, the cup should be open to 
the challenge of any person in the State of Illinois,' 
"It seems to me, as a member of three clubs of the League and a di- 
rector of the League, that as the cup was donated to the L' ague of 
Cook County, in event of the disbandment of the League (which is not, 
however, now evident or anticipated) the cup should be subject to 
challenge from any member in good standing of a club of Cook 
county, and not of the State of Illinois at large. A. C. Paterson." 
INDIANAPOLIS HAKDIOAP. 
The date of the big Indianapolis live-bird handicap sweeps, setfor 
Dse. 7 and 8, will probably be set forward to Dec. 9 and 10, in order to 
avoid conflict with the dates of the Kansas Giiy Chicago team shoot. 
Many shooters are expected to go to Indianapolis from Chicago after 
the Carnival here. 
IN TOWN. 
Mr. W. Fred Quimby, of New York, is in town this week, feeling 
the phasurable sensation of being in a real city for a while. He is 
doing feirly well. E HotiOH.

Wolstencroft Still Holds the Cup. 
The shoot for the Austin cup at the Keystone Shooting League's 
grounds, Holmesburg Junction, Pa., Oct. 2b, resulted in the easiest 
kind of a win for W. H. Wolstencroft, the holder, who broke 81 (and 
might have broken more h d he needed them badly) to 67 on the 
part of the challenger, For the latter's score we have no excuse to 
offer. It is true ihat the light was bad ; the targets thrown at varying 
heights and distances; the background puzzling; and that rain was 
falling, with a northeast wind blowing But then it was the same for 
all, and Billy broke them, while the other didn't. 
When watching or taking part in sweepstakes at expert rules, we 
have of ten seen a mistake made in pulling the traps, the same trap 
being pulled twice in the series of iive. Under expert rules, one man 
up, a shooter is always sure of his last trap, if he has kept lab on the 
others which have been pulled. In our fourth series of five in this 
maich the Duller made a mistake on the last trap, pulling No. 5 whtn 
he should have pulled No. 4. Thoroughly astonished at getting a sharp 
left-quarterer when we w ere looking for a comparative straightaway, 
we hesitated, and then went after it, with a view to pi-otecting our- 
selves in case we had made the error. After loi-ing the target, 
we instantly made a claim for a balk, stating that as we 
had kept count, No. 4 should have been the trap, and not No. .5. An 
examination of the score showed that we were correct, and Referee 
Hallowell ordered "another target from No. 4 trap." As, however, 
some of those present thought that as we had fired, the result shoula 
be scored, we waived our claim and took a back seat. Our claim 
was based on the "balk." Rule 19. A. S. A., Section I., Subsection C., 
says: "If the contestant is interfered with, or balked, or there is 
other similar reason why it should be done, the referee may allow 
another target." Section 2 of the same rule says: "When the shoot- 
ing is at known a/ngf/es, he shall have another target from the same 
trap; but if the shooting is at unknown angles, he sbail have another 
target from an unkno trap, to be decided from the indicator, ex- 
cept it be the last trap, when the shooter has the right to know 
which trap is to be sprung. In this case he shall have another target 
from the same trap. ' la quoting the above rules we have purposely 
italicised the word "angles:" our reison for doing so i» that we have 
always construed this word as a misprint for "traos;" no other con- 
struction of the rule appears to us to be possible. Uiider the rules as 
above we have no hesita ion in stating that (although we were an in- 
terested party) Mr Hallowell's decision of "another target from No. 
4 trap" was quite correct. 
Looking at it from a commonsense point of view, consider how a 
puller could rattle a man by pulling wrong traps, that is, by pulling 
the same trap twice in a series. Again, look at it another way: A 
puller could favor another shooter very much by pulling No. 3 trap 
more than once in the same series. We have, therefore, for the 
above reasons, always held that when a wrong trap has been pulled 
when shooting under expert rules, or for the matter of that under 
any other rules, it should be "another target, whether broken or 
lost." We are always open to conviction, and should like to hear 
from the other side. 
Returning to the match itself, Wolstencroft made a capital run of 
45 out of his second and third series of 25 targets each. He shot quite 
slowly, but probably his time was belter under the circumstances 
than if he bad shot faster. As for his opponent, he had no sort od 
time at all and, speaking feelingly, couldn't hjc a barn. The match 
was capably refereea by John J. Hallowell Scores follow, ihe order 
in which the traps were pulied being also given. (N. B.— Five gun 
wads were used as the indicator, being marked respectively with the 
numbers of the five traps. This indicator was worked by Harry Febi- 
ger of the Keystone League.)

Jefferson County Fair Association Handicap. 
Pine Blufp, Ark., Oct. 21.— As an incentive to draw visitors to the 
fair, as well as to add to the attractions, the Fair Association hung up 
a purse of $100, to be used as added money in a shooting contest. 
This amount had been turned over to the local gun club with instruc- 
tions to arrange such contests as would prove the most attractive. 
As the last tournament of the Arkansas State Sportsmen's Associa- 
tion was held here, and was strictly a target shoot, it was decided to 
make this a live bird shoot, a handicap event of i5 birds, $10 entrance, 
high gun?, not class shooting; half the number of high guns as there 
were entries. There tieins sixteen entries this made eight moneys, as 
follows: 150, $45, .PO, $35, $30, $i5, $i0 and $15; this made up the 
purse of $360. 
As there were not any cracker jacks present, this was a hot contest 
among amateur-s of the t-imon Pure quality, with plenty of intereHt 
in the race, though It was expected that Speers and Coles, who took 
first pnd second money, would be near the top at the finish. These 
two tied on '^2 and took $t5. There was not a 21, so Pemberton, 
Williams and Lloyd, who scored 20, took third, fourth and fifth 
money, *105, which net ed each $85. Pemberton started rather 
poorly, as he only scored 6 out of his first 10. Then he made a run of 
13 straight, which was also the best run of the shoot. The loss of his 
24th cost $.5, for at this time it looked as if he bad a cinch on third 
money. Williams also started badly, but finished strongly, killing his 
last li in good time. Larkin was the only one to score 19, which gave 
him sixth money, .$35. Wells, with 18, got seventh, $;0, while Clem- 
ents and Mathews divide eighth, $15. Thus nine of the sixteen con- 
testants got part of the purse. 
The birds Were only an ordinary lot, but this must be attributed 
more to the weather conditions than anything else. There was not a 
breath of air stirring, while it was extremely hot for October. Mr, 
Lloyd, the manager of the shoot, had secured the best birds that 
money could buy, and all of them were old, strong birds, but the 
elements alJected their quality, and no one could guard against this. 
The shoot passed off very pleasantly, and, with the exception of one, 
everybody was satisfied wi h their handicap; and as the party re- 
ferred to landed a winner, there seems little grounds for complaint 
Takmgitall in all, the handicap committee did its work very fairly 
and equitably. 
The local club was well represented, for no less than eight of the 
entries were from the city. The out-of-town delegation was not very 
large, but the little town of Stuttgart had seven representatives 
entered, a very creditable showing for a club thai has only recently 
been organized. This delegation consisted of E. Haynes, D. L. Cra- 
mer, Wm. Ritman, S. M. Savage, C. W. Sillen, W. D. Matthews and 
Pi. W. Larkin. 
Li'tleRock had but a single representative. John M. Pemberton. 
John J. Bumpter, Jr., of Hot Springs, w as entered, but by a peculiar 
combination of circumstances was prevented from being present. 
John intended to arrive on Wednesday evening, but was detained on 
ofllcial business. It was yet possible for him to get to Pine B uff by 
leaving at 5 A. M. Thursday. But to reach Pins Bluff from Hot 
Springs necessitated two changes of cars. When he arrived at 
Mabrun he found the train on the main line two hours late. This 
preciucied the possibility of making connection at Little Rock, and it 
was impossible for him' to reach Pme Bluff before 6 P.M. L'nder 
tnese cncumstances his entrance money was refunded. It looks 
very much as th ugh this cost him $50, especially as he scored 21 out 
of 25 from the Siyds. mark on the day previou.s and 23 won first 
money here. True he would have been scratch man. but the handi- 
cap committee had treated him very fairly, placing him at 31yds. 
John is easily the be't pigeon shot in the State. 
The handicap commi tee consisted of J. T. Llovd, E. A. Howell and 
J. B Speers. Mr. Harris was referee, while Mr. Howell, the club's 
efflcienc secretary, was offleial scorer. The appended score shows the 
number of the trap, the flight, and the result. Cramer, Haynes and 
Siller were delayed, as their train was late. When the others had fin- 
ished they had shot only 14 birds each At this point the shooting 
had to cease, as the races were due to begin. They shot their final 
birds beiiween races, but at thl'T time 1 was off getting something to 
eat, and for this reason failed to get the number of the trap or the 
flight of these final birds 
The Ingram whose name appears in the score is the champion tar- 
pon catcher. He is the man who made the big record at Aransas 
Pass this summer. He is not quite as handy with the gun as with the 
rod, and frankly admits it.

Like Winking in a Dark Closet. 
Marlborough, Province Assiniboine, Canada, Oct. 13.— A common 
expression m the Northwest is. "What do you know?" Well, I know 
that we have killed a lot of Canada geese. That last night we got the 
first snowstorm (squaw winter), and many left. That I have found a 
hunting coat at last water and wind proof; no seam in shoulder, and 
when you are bunoled up until you are like a cotton ball with the 
middle band of it as ea>y as a night shirt. The makers do not 
advertise in Fohest akd Strpam, and they are much like a man wink- 
ing in a dark closet; i. e , he knows what he is doing, t ut no one else. 
That wearr- to have more fun than a barrel of goats, and are going 
to take it all in. Pink Edge.
