LEFEVER ARMS CO. DIAMOND MEDAL. 
There were twenty-two contestants in the diamond medal event. 
It was shot at 20 single targets and 5 pairs, entrance $2. The con- 
test was most spirited and close, and was watched with the greatest 
.interest by all present. Glover, Banks, Tuttle and Barker tied 
on 29, Kirkover and Mayhew being close with 28. In the ties 
there was some as pretty target shooting as ever was witnessed. 
Banks and Glover were shooting in admirably fine form, the 
former rather the better, since he caught the targets quicker, cen- 
tered them well and shot with great confidence. Banks' first pair 
in the ties flew in line with a tree at the boundary fence, and in 
attempting to catch them before they could blend with the colors 
of the tree and thereby become indistinct, he shot too quickly, 
lost his time and missed them both. Up to that moment Banks 
seemed a sure winner. Glover missed one in his next pair, then 
broke the rest and won by one target. The badge now be- 
comes his personal property. The scores:

FRIDAY, FOURTH DAY. 
The Dean Richmond Trophy. 
The weather was clear, with a warmth of midsummer. A stiff 
wind blew toward the traps, making the shooting far from easy. 
The grounds from the constant tramping of the multitude had a 
heavy covering of dust, which was lifted up and scattered around 
the shooters and traps in clouds at such times as heavy gusts 
varied the steady blowing. 
The birds were an exceptionally good lot, considering the 
time of year, and were not so easy to kill, as the scores below 
will show. The keenest interest was shown by the spectators 
from start to finish, and good kills were impartially applauded. 
The Dean Richmond trophy event was the only one left of 
the programme; the Lefever Arms Co. diamond medal, fixed for 
Friday, had been shot on the previous day. A few sweepstakes 
occupied the forenoon. The main event commenced at 1:03. 
There were eight teams in this contest, the Syracuse Gun Club 
team proving the victors with the excellent score of 58 oat of 60, 
Col. A. G. Courtney killing straight, while Mosher and Mc- 
Murchy each scored "19. 
Mr. J. Fanning was referee; Mr. Will K. Park, of Sporting Life, 
was scorer, and Mr. L. W. Davis was trap-puller. The scores:'

ST. LOUIS, MO. 
Little Rock, Ark., June 23.— Manager J. A. Corray, of Dupont 
Park, is out with his programme announcing a two days' tourna- 
ment for July 3 and 4. This is to be an open affair, but trade 
representatives will be taxed 50 cents extra in each event. This 
is to constitute an average fund, to be divided among the ama- 
teurs who shoot through. The programme consists of five 15 and 
five 20-target events each day, making 175 shot for the day. The 
entrance in the 15-bird events is $1.50, while in the 20s it is $2. 
There will be $5 added in each event, $100 all told for the two days. 
This should draw a fair crowd, but it is a difficult matter to pull 
off a very pretentious event on these dates, as half the clubs in 
the country will be holding shoots on the Fourth.

ever, no one was equal to the requirements. Frank was the first 
one to witi it twice, and though he managed to tie for it several 
times after, he was unable to land it the decisive time. ' 
A singular thing about these contests is that Frank Poston, one 
of the very best shots in the club, never won it once,' though he 
never scored less than 23 and on several occasions 24 and 25 
straight. It was always his misfortune to be shot out in the tie. 
In the fall pigeon shooting will be resumed by this club, and 
matters will be taken up where they were dropped. 
LOCALLY. 
The approach of the State shoot is livening up matters consid- 
erably here and there is a good crowd of shooters on hand each 
Friday. At the last shoot Mayor Woodson was on hand, and 
though he complained of feeling bad and furthermore being 
rusty — this being his first appearance this season — he set a pace 
that none of the others could follow. Ninety-three per cent, was 
entirely too hot a clip. Quite a number of those who w r ere present 
hoped that his illness would prove contagious if it had that kind 
of an effect. John Pemberton kept plugging along right behind 
him, always a bird or so shy though. In a live-bird shoot a few 
days previous John Dickinson was easily first with 17 out of 20, 
Pemberton winning second. 
State tournament affairs are progressing very nicely, and $350 
added money has already been raised, while efforts are being 
made to bring this amount up to $500. This is going to be a 
rattling good event, and shooters will do well to bear this in mind. 
The promoters hope to make this the best shoot held in the South 
this season, always excepting the Hot Springs shoot, of course. 
IN ILLINOIS. 
Sid el 1 has a gun club, and they too will be doing business on the 
glorious Fourth, and the 5th also. All targets, and the schedule 
varies from 10 to 25 birds. Fourteen events sum up the shoot- 
ing for the two days, though extras will be run off to suit those 
present. The management consists of Jas. A. Linder, President; 
Frank Jackson, Vice-President; W. A. Gray, Secretary and Treas- 
urer; Hi J, Scounce, Captain.

Auburn Gun Club. 
Auhurk, Me., June 18.— The Auburn Gun Club held its regu- 
lar weekly shoot this afternoon. There was a strong wind blowing, 
making the birds fly hard, but in spite of this the best scores of 
the season were made. Event No. 1 was the badge shoot, which 
Rickford won with 24. The boys are getting all the practice they 
can before the tournament, which is to be held on June 30. They 
are all looking for that Parker Gun. Scores:
