Boston Gun Club. 
The Boston Gun Club's sixth serial shoot and a raging snow- 
storm arrived simultaneously Wednesday, Feb. 16, the latter 
emerging victorious, for not a .shot was fired over the traps the 
entire afternoon. Two or three debated the possibility of stand- 
ing upright in the howling gale, but came to the conclusion that 
discretion was the better part of valor and postponed operations 
for one week, fdling in the only open date, Feb. 23, on pro- 
gramme. This had been omitted because following immediately 
in the wake of Washington's Birthday, but it filled the occasion 
to a nicety, and with twelve in attendance was quite worthy of 
better weather than it received, ^ The afternoon, however, was such 
an improvement over the previous forty-eight hours of rain and 
snow that nobody was inclined to grumble, and the little snatches 
of sun were thankfully noted from time to time during the shoot. 
Perhaps the poor light had something to^ do with a few of the 
misses, one or two of the standbys tumljling very decidedly on 
percentages. Leroy topped the list with a scant 80 per cent., which 
from 2Ivds. rise is more than it looks and good enough. A 9 
on 5 pairs, 10 straight unknown, and 9 out of 10 reverse angles 
shows conclusively the handicap to be none too strong. But 
five straights emerged from the three hours' debris, two to the 
credit of Gordon, and one each to Woodruff, Leroy and Williams.

Memphis Han(dicap. 
Memphis, Tenn., Feb. 22.— It is customary with the Memphis 
Grm Club to hold a tournament on Washington's Birthday. True, 
these are never very pretentious aft'airs, and are to a certain extent 
of a local nature. Of late these events have invariably consisted 
of live-bird shooting, and usually the main event has been a 25- 
bird handicap. This is what the attraction was to-day. Not- 
withstanding the counter attraction of the carnival, there was 
quite a gathering of shooters in attendance, consisting not entirely 
of local shooters, for among those present were: Harvey Mc- 
Murchy and Col. A. G. Courtney, Syracuse, N. Y. ; R. L. Trimble, 
Cincinnati, O.; Herbert Taylor, St. Louis, Mo.; Col. Thos. Mar- 
tin Bluffton, S. C. ; Elmer Apperson, Kokomo, Ind. ; A. W. 
du' Bray, Dayton, Ky., and the Nesbit brothers, of Wilkes- 
barre Pa. The local ' club was well represented, and Memphis 
can justly pride itself on its gun club. 
'The main event, as stated above, was the handicap, and it natu- 
rally follows that some one must allot to each contestant his han- 
dicap. The club had selected such a committee, but this did in 
no way apply to the visiting shooters, and it is in this respect 
that the Memphis Gun Club again did something original, as 
is characteristic of it. For in place of allotting to each of the 
visiting shooters their handicap they left it entirely to the option 
of each, an(i it is scarcely necessary to state that their con- 
fidence was not misplaced, as few of the visitors got a part of 
the money, an(l those who did in no way affected the chances 
of the local shooters. The visitors were in the true sense of 
the word the guests of the club, for while there was an excel- 
lent lunch served at noon none of the visitors were permitted 
to contribute anything toward defraying the expenses. 
The weather was fine, though a trifle cold. There were twenty- 
six entries in the handicap, in which the entrance was $10 in- 
cluding birds. This did not make a very large purse to contest 
for, but it was sufficient to keep up the interest. There were 
only three moneys- 50, 30 and 20 per cent.— and one had to shoot 
well to the top to get any part of the purse. The race itself 
was fraught with interest from start to finish, For a time it 
looked as though first money would go to either Dr. Saunders, 
Sr., or Yahnke, as both of these were straight up to the 19th 
round. At this juncture both lost their first Ipirds, and Yahnke* 
followed this up by missing two more in rapid succession, and 
finally^ on the 24th bird shot himself out of the rnoney entirely. 
Dr. Saunders soon lost another one, and with it his chances 
for first money. The race finally narrowed down to Frank and 
Bennett, both of whom after their first miss were shooting an 
excellent race. The finisli was conducive of heart disease. 
Frank had shot out with 24, and it remained but for Bennett to 
kill his last bird in order, to tie him. The final bird was a big 
off colored one that evaded the first shot, but the second 
caught it apparently in the proper place, and it went down to 
the ground, but only for an instant, for by a mighty effort it 
managed to rise once more and struggle out of bounds, there 
to succumb. What looked like a great kill had to be scored 
lost, and with it all of Bennett's claims on first money. The 
expression of regret was universal, as there \s no more popular 
shooter than Irby Bennett, either at home or abroad. 
Frank was shooting in truly great form, .and won strictly on 
his merits; he lost but one bird out of 40 shot at during the day, 
finishing with a run of 31 straight. 
Neely started in very well, having 15 straight to his credit 
before the first lost bird had to he chalked up against him. 
Singularly enough all of his lost birds were incomers. 
For some unaccountable reason the birds, though a fine looking 
lot, were only ordinary, there being entirely too many in- 
comers to permit them to be classed good. 
Before the commencement of the handicap a 5-hird sweep was 
shot. This resulted in Frank, A. B. Duncan, Martin, Edrington, 
Trimble, Apperson, G. Nesbit, Dr. Saunders, Sr., and J. B. 
Duncan killing straight, while du Bray, Vance and Bragg were 
the only ones to score 4. These of course got more money 
than those who killed straight. There were twenty-two entries 
in this event. After the conclusion of the handicap a miss-and-out 
was shot, and when dai-kne.?s put a .stop to this du Bray, Frank 
and Trimble had each 10 kills to their credit and were com- 
pelled to cut up the inoney, 
Du Bray expressed himself as very much pleased at tlie out-

Scranton Gtin Clufa. 
ScRANTON, Pa., Feb. 22.— The Scranton Gun Club held its first 
shoot on its new grounds — Spencer ran'ge, Dunmore, Pa. Owing 
to the snow falling in the morning all the events were not 
finished. Plowever, about 11 A. M. it cleared up partially. Some 
of the shooters then began to appear. Soon we had enough to. 
staj't off the first event. The snow kept coming every once in 
a while, consequently shooting was not as easy as it might have 
been. However, we managed to pull off seven of the twelve 
events. Those present seemed to enjoy themselves very much. 
Some of the shotgun shooters tried their hands at the rifle, 
but after shooting a few times concluded that they were out of 
their class. A 12in. buUseye at 200yds. when looked at through 
a rifle sight is not as big as it seems when watching others 
shooting. 
Mr. II. M. Spencer, who made the fine score at Madison 
Square Garden during the Sportsmen's Exposition, showed the 
boys that he could also do a little target smashing by breaking 14 
out of 15 in a practice shoot. Mr. Spencer also entered some of 
the events to help fill out. W. A. Wiedebush did the. best 
shooting of the day by breaking 94 out of 100 shot at in the 
seven events. 
A. S. A. rules governed. Nos. 1 and 4 were handicaps, 10 tar- 
gets, .$1 entrance; Nos. 2, 3, 5 and 6 were handicaps, 15 targets, 
$1.50; No. 7 was 20 targets, $2, handicap. Handicaps, extra birds 
to shoot at: Event No. 1— Spencer 3, Bittenburder 2, Nichols 3, 
and each was allowed 1 bird more to .shoot at in No. 4. Grimes, 
.Spencer and Bittenburder had 5 each in No. 5. In No. 6: Spencer 
9, Grimes 5, Bittenburder 2, Colpitis 5. No. 7: Spencer, Grimes, 
Bittenburder and Colpitis 5.

Under date of Feb. 25 Mr. John L. Lequin, secretary of the 
Interstate Association, writes as follows: "We have received in- 
quiries from most all directions recently, from a number of 
shooters who are desirous of entering the Grand American Handi- 
cap next month, concerning the weight of guns, and whether the 
hand hold and recoil pad will be counted as a part of the gun 
when weighed. The subject has been placed before the tourna- 
ment committee of this Association, which committee has decided 
that the guns will be weighed naked."
