on May 21 with a cruising race from Toronto to Port 
Credit, The wind was variable and at times very light, 
but 2. close race was made, five out of the seven starters 
finishing well together. The race was a sealed handicap, 
but the winner had no need of her allowance. Gwaj'- is 
a very peculiar and original craft, a proa designed by 
her owner, Robert Tyson, an old canoe sailor. She has 
a main hull similar to a canoe, to which is connected a 
smaller balancing hull. She was sailed by Mr. Tyson 
alone. The times were :

Revolver at Louisville. 
Louisville, Ky. — On Thursday evening, May 19, the Louis- 
ville Revolver Club met at the Armory for its regular weekly 
shoot, which resulted in exceptionally good scores being made 
in the 10yd. distance. Since the 1st Regiment left for Lexington, 
Ky., to mobilize, the Armory has been closed most of the time, 
which is detrimental to the interest of the club's -team in prac- 
ticing for tlie coming Louisville-Brooklyn revolver match. Gov. 
Bradley comrnissioned Col. H. S. Cohn to muster in a company 
of State guards at the Armory last Tuesday evening, and Col. 
Castleman, of the 1st Regiment, and Mayor Weaver, of our city, 
issued orders not to allow the Armory to be used for the pur- 
pose, and the large building was closed tight. That is the state 
of things at the present time. We hope for an early adjustment 
of matters, so we can get the required practice. 
We were honored with the presence of R. T. Chapman, a friend 
and sportsman, formerly of Tennessee, who acted as scorer 
during the evening. 
Now that the races are over attention will be given to shooting. 
At the Kentucky Shotgun Club grounds will be several very 
pretty contests among the members, including the ladies, this 
week. Shooting two days at live birds wiW be the main attrac- 
tion, while other events will occur each afternoon. Parker's new 
trap and pigeon guns are used mostly. They have a new gun 
out. It is a plain black barrel that is hard, tough and thoroughly 
reliable, and suitable for shooting nitro powders. It is similar to 
the Whitworth fluid-pressed steel and called the Titanic steel, and 
is a beauty. I will send you scores of this week's trap-shooting 
for your next issue. Below are the scores of the last shoot of

A Lesson in Rifle Practice. 
A Texas military company was out on the range recently prac- 
ticing at rifle shooting. The lieutenant in command suddenly 
became exasperated at the poor shooting, and seizing a gun from 
one of the privates cried sharply: "I'll show you fellows how to 
shoot!" 
Taking a' long aim, and a strong aim, and an aim all togetlier, 
he fired and missed. Coolly turning to the private who owned the 
gun, he said: ''That's the way you shoot!" He again loaded the 
weapon and missed. Turning to the second man in the ranks, he 
remarked: "That's the way you shoot!" In this way he missed 
about a dozen times, illustrating to each soldier his personal in- 
capacity, and finally he accidentally hit the target. "And that," 
he ejaculated, handing the gun back to the private, "is the way 
1 shoot."- Angeles Times.

Adams street, Peoria, lU. 
The Kansas City Star cup became the absolute property of 
Mr. J. A. R. Elliott in the final contest for it at Kansas City on 
May 20. He made a most vigorous and persistent competition 
for it after it was contested for in Kansas City in May 23, 1896. 
J, E. Riley and H. J. Whittier tied on 25 in that contest, they 
being the only ones out of a field of fifty-three to score that 
number of birds. Still they were closely pressed, as there were 
five 24s and ten 23s. Riley defeated Whittier in shooting off 
the tie. About six months after that event, Elliott defeated Riley 
for the cup at Kansas City by a score of 92 to 81, 6 of his birds 
falling dead out of bounds. In the open contest at Kansas City 
the following year, in a field of sixty-three, four killed 25 straight, 
namely. Glover, Herman, Lamb and Crabill. In the shoot-off 
at 51 birds Glover won. Aug. 14, 1897, Elliott defeated Glover for 
it at Rochester by a score of 92 to 84, and he gathered the cup 
back to its home. Fred Gilbert then took a fancy to it, so he 
meandered to Kansas City, produced a score of 95 to 94 as evi- 
dence of title and calmly returned to Iowa, presumably with the 
resolution to annex it permanently, for on Dec. 7, at Chicago, he 
defeated Elliott by a score of 97 to 87, with 2 birds dead out of 
bounds. However, Elliott had different views on the subject, as 
shown by his victory over Gilbert at Chicago on April 26, where _ 
he took the cup from Gilbert by a score of 90 to 86. He defended 
it successfully from Heikes at Kansas City on May 6 by a score 
94 to 93, a very close race. In the open contest Charlie Budd won 
it, and in about twenty-four hours thereafter Elliott, by defeating 
Riley, Gilbert, Budd and Glover, took possession of it as a part 
of his personal belongings, as related last week. 
The programme of the second grand tournament of the West 
Virginia State Sportsmen's Association, to be held at Parkersburg, 
W. Va., June 8-10, under the auspices of the Mountain State Gun 
Club, can now be obtained of the secretary, Mr. Ed O. Bower, 
Sistersville, W. Va. The programme for each of the three days is 
the same, namely, ten events, 15 bluerocks, $1.50 entrance, $5 added 
to the purse, making "a total of $150 added money for the three 
days. In addition to the regular events, there will be two State 
events shot ofif at some convenient time in the progress of the 
tournament. The first is the grand merchandise event, 25 blue- 
rocks, entrance $5. The other is the individual championship, 
50 bluerocks, entrance $1.50. These are open only to members 
of the State Association. Magautrap will be used. Lunch will 
be served each day. Shooting commences at 9 o'clock. Money 
divided 30, 25, 20, 15 and 10 per cent. The merchandise prize 
list provides six prizes, each for ties from 1 to 5 inclusive, and 
six tor the high guns shooting the full programme. There is an 
L. C. Smith ejector, a Remington gun, a Parker hammeriess, an 
Ithaca hammeriess, and a Winchestei' repeater, a gun for each 
class of ties. 
Mr. N. F. Reiner, secretary of the Centredale, R. I., Gun Club, 
of whom programmes can be obtained, writes us as follows: "The 
Centredale Gun Club will hold a shoot on July 4. There will be 
ten 15-bird events, entrance 55 cents, to each event; that is, 30 
cents for birds and 25 cents sweepstakes. The club will add 
$25; $20 to be given to the five high guns as follows: $6, $5, $4, 
$3, and %%; and $5 as follows: $3 to, the shooter making the longest 
run out of the 150 birds, and |2 to second run. All sweepstakes 
are optional, but in order to compete for the purse all events must 
be shot. As this shoot is rather an experiment, it is hoped that 
shooters in our neighboring as well as our own State will turn out 
in good numbers and help make our first undertaking a grand suc- 
cess. Lunch will be served at grounds. Shooting commences at 
10:30 A. M." 
Tom Keller, the urbane hustler of the King's Smokeless Powder 
Co. and Peters Cartridge Co., takes the opportunity between 
whiles to shoot at the traps, and when he shoots seriously he 
shoots well. In the 10-men team match between the Bound Brook 
Gun Club and the Dunellen Gun Club at Dunellen, May 21, the 
Dunellen Gun Club won by 24, thus scoring a second victory. 
Keller distinguished himself by breaking 24 out of 25. He made a 
run of 46 before missing, then broke the remaining three of the 
50, putting up the crackerjack score of 49 out of 50, thus almost 
making his talents as a shooter equal his talents as a salesman. It 
is hardly necessary to add that he used King's Smokeless and 
Victor shells. 
An effort is being made by trap-sho?)ters of Plainfield, Bound 
Brook, Dunellen and Somerville, N. J., and vicinity, to organize 
a Central New Jersey Trap-Shooters' League, for the furtherance 
of trap-shooting interests. It is said that the Climax Gun Club, 
the Independent Gun Club, the Dunellen Gun Club, the Bound 
Brook Gun Club and the Somerset Gun Club have signified that 
they will join such an organization. Such an organization would 
go far toward infusing greater interest in a section which aboimds 
with a multitude of trap-shooters. Club contests and shoots 
would stimulate greater emulation and broaden the competition.
