Brooklyn-Louisville Match, 
Louisville, Ky., May 24. — The Brooklyn-Louisville revolver 
telegraph match came off Tuesday evening, May 24. The Brook- 
lyn Club shot in their range at Brooklyn, while the Louisville 
Club shot in the Armory, and the scores were exchanged by 
telegraph. Mr. John B. Hutchings acted as referee lor the 
Brooklyners, while Mr. A. C. Gould acted for our club at Brook- 
lyn. Mr. M. Board acted as scorer, Mr. R. S. Witherspoon as timer, 
and Mr. Frank Porsig as marker for the home club, and the 
evening was greatly enjoyed by all. This was the first match 
the Louisville Club had ever entered, and the anxiety and 
eagerness to win made the contestants nervous, and the scores 
were not up to what the}' ought to have been. The greatest in- 
terest was centered in the 15yd. rapid-fire distance, as the beauti- 
ful .silver cup, presented by the Peters Cartridge Co., of Cin- 
cinnati, O., for the best team average made in this distance, was 
won by the Louisville Club by a very close margin. The Brook- 
lyn Club won in both the 10 and 20yd. events.

LOUISVILLE REVOLVER CLUB. 
May 3L — Eight members of the Louisville Revolver Cltib con- 
tested in the 15yds. rapid-fire event to-day at the Armory, and re- 
SUltt'd in good scores being made. Mr. Ira S. Barnett, president 
of the Hall & Hay ward Co., made his first attempt at the rapid- 
fire target, and made a good score. Mr. Mead Board also entered 
the rapid-fire event for the first time, and put up a good score. 
Both used S. & W. revolvers and U. M. C. ammunition. 
The 15yds. rapid-fire distance is what the local club excel in. 
They won the amateur championship challenge cup, donated by 
the Peters Cartridge Co., defeating the Brooklyn CIuId on May 24. 
All revolver clubs throughout the country ought to add the 
ISyds. rapid-fire target to their events, as it is very hard to ob- 
tam a perfect score on it, and quite an art to learn how to shoot 
a revolver quickly and accurately, but not carelessly. The Writer 
will be pleased to send a sample target, and also give complete 
instructions regarding same to any member of a revolver club 
who may write for it.

One bf the features of the shoot at Wissinoming last Saturday 
was tlie excellent shooting of Mr. W. H. Wolstencroft, his per- 
centage being 97 per cent. He shoots with case and accuracy, it 
-seemingly being less trouble for him to hit than it is for others to 
hit and miss.

Trap at St. Louis. 
St. Louis, Mo., May 30. — It is now becoming customary for the 
trap-shooters to celebrate their holidays by indulging in either 
live-bird or target shooting. Here in St. Louis those who were on 
hand at Du Font's Park shot several sweeps at pigeons, one ot 
which was a 25-bird handicap. This event had only six entries 
who shot for mmiey, of which Powers killed straight and Dr. 
Starklotf scored 2?. The purse being divided 60 and 40 per cent., 
they took first and second moneys respectively. The conditions of 
this event were 25 pigeons, handicap rise, $15, two moneys, 60 
and 40 per cent., birds included. First money $3150, second 
§21. 
There were also a 10-bird sweep and a nliss-and-out, all of which 
were shot under the handicap system. In the 10-bird eVeitt 
Powers, Kling and Dennig tied for first on 9. Ed Pendergast\ 
Geo. Pendergast, Dr. Starkloff and W. S. Thompson tied for 
second on 8. These decided to shoot it off in the nliss-and-otlt, 
Of the quartette, Geo. Pendergast stayed until the finish, and 
not only scooped the second money of the previous event, but 
also cut up the miss-and-out money with Powers and Kling. 
Chan.^ Powers was in rare fornij and gave the St. Louis shooter-;, 
an object lesson in the art of pigeon shooting. 
The birds trapped for the occasion wete a fair lot for the Se'dSoil 
of the year.

The big event of the day was the shoot at 20 live birds, which 
was No. 3 on the programme. There were no less than twenty- 
three entries, and the interest manifested was very great. Every 
shooter seemed anxious to do his best, and there was some very- 
lively work. On account of the large number of entries, and the 
great interest, it was impossible to finish the match, as darkness 
was approaching. After each man had shot at 15 birds it was 
agreed to finish the score on June 2. In this match Samuel W. 
Flick did some remarkable work, killing his 14 straight birds, and 
he has the best chance to win the first prize the way things stand 
now. Referee Keller pronounced it one of the finest shoots 
he has ever seen, and the arrangements \yere first class in every 
respect, - ^ • - .
