Minneapolis Gun Club Tournament. 
Minneapolis, Minn., Aug. 26.— It was freely predicted that 
the tournament of the Minneapolis Gun Club would be a good 
nne, but it is probable that not even its promoters hoped or sus- 
pected that it would be the success that it has proved itself. Of 
all the shoots of the season of 1S9S, it may perhaps be said that 
(hree stand out in special prominence— the Cleveland shoot, the 
Soo Cum Club shoot and the Minneapolis shoot, just completed. 
The Cleveland shoot practically "turned down" the paid man, and 
the Soo shoot also gave him the cold shoulder. The Minneapolis 
tournament came later in the season than /either of the above, at 
a time when shooting enthusiasm might be thought to be on the 
wane, and it attempted the plan, of late apparently foredoomed 
to failure, of shooting the paid man and the unpaid, the expert and 
the amateur, the wolf and the lamb, upon the same footing and 
at the same time. The system employed has been in use in the 
club shoots of the Minneapolis Gun Club for years, and it is not 
really new to trap-shooters, though 1 think new in general appli- 
cation in tournament management. It was the so-called "equitable 
system" (in combination with good added money and with the 
reputation of doing nothing by halves) which enabled the club 
to call out one of the greatest shooting crowds of the season. 
The principle is something like that of the Rose system, though 
it does not pay high guns quite so well as the Rose system, but 
breaks up the money still more, while retaining the idea of pay- 
ing' a shooter for what he does. We may take an example. Sup- 
pose we have 100 entries in a 15-target event, entrance $1.50. 
This makes the purse .$150. Take out the targets at 2 cents each, 
$30, and you have left a net purse of $120. To this may be added 
any added money offered. We will suppose that three break 15 
straight, 45 birds between then). Ten men break 14 birds, or 140 
in all. Fifteen men break 13. or 195 birds in all. Ten men 
break 12 birds, or 120 in all. This completes the places, for the 
purse is divided on the basis of four moneys. Now add up totals 
of the birds broken in each class, or 45, 140, 195, 120, and we have 
a grand total of 500 birds broken. Divide the net purse, $120, by 
500, and you have 24, which is to say that each bird broken is 
worth 24 cents. Therefore the man who breaks 15 gets $3.60, the 
man who breaks 14 gets $3.36, the man who breaks 13 gets $3.12, 
and the man who breaks 12 gets $2.S8. _ On this basis, so the presi- 
dent of the club, Mr. S. S. Johnson, informed me he had figured 
out, in one case where a low shooter would have only taken down 
the exact sum of 3 cents under the old class shooting system; 
under the equitable system he took down $1.95, or 45 cents above 
his entrance money. Naturally he was far more pleased than had 
he gone up against the stone wall of the older days. It is also a 
great feature in favor of this system that it prevents all dropping 
for place, and all pooling and combining. 
PROOF OF THE PUDDING. 
\t most shoots you sec a good, stiff accommodation entry for 
the first two or three events, and then a swift waning, until by 
the beginning of the second day there are many empty places in 
l he gun racks. Here is what happened at Minneapolis: 
In the first event, first day, there were ninety-two entries. 
During the first day there were 100 entries in all. 
On the first day, out of the total entry seventy-seven men shot 
on through the entire programme. 
On the second day there were sixty-nine men who shot 
through the entire programme. . 
During the two days there were 104 different guns at the traps. 
There were eighty-five entries on the second day, the fatal second 
day, when the lamb is usually counting his money to see if he 
an get home. 
Out of the entire aggregation at the score, something over 87 
per cent, of the shooters shot through the whole programme. 
This is absolutely unprecedented in the annals of mixed tournament 
shooting, where wolves and lambs have met on equal footing. 
Out of the 104 shooters present, not one kick, not one objection, 
not one if, or and, or but, was heard. This also is a revolutionary 
state of affairs. 
The above things being true, the story of the tournament is 
already told, and it surely is a grand story, better than one 
could "have hoped to find. It is true one success does not assure 
a permanent and accepted regime, for your trap-shooter is noth- 
ing if not changeable. It might be said that the Rose system was 
offered the shooting public and was not accepted, as indeed it 
never was, good though it surely was and is. Why should we 
hope for better luck for this "equitable" system? The answer 
seems to be that the bovs were not ready for the Rose system; it 
seemed new and a bit hard to them, and they still clung to the 
old ways, and more especially did the experts, who liked the class 
shooting idea. Now they are coming slowly to see that shooting 
for another fellow's money, when the other fellow is just as good 
i shot as you are, is no fun. Gradually the equity of the pay-for- 
wbat-yoti-do system will commend itself to the shooters, and it 
is likely that we shall hear much more of this sort of thing after 
the success of the Minneapolis shoot, sharp and almost unexpected 
as it was, shall have become generally known throughout the 
3ahd. , 
AH the members of the club wish to give the chief credit for the 
success of the tournament to the quiet and hard-working presi- 
dent, Mr. Johnson, upon whose shoulders the greater part 
if the trving work of getting up and engineering the shoot seemed 
to fall naturally. Mr. Johnson may very well be proud alike of his 
club and of his success. He was aided by a good corps of other 
officers. 
SERGEANT SYSTEM AND SHORT EVENTS. 
The Minneapolis Gun Club used the Sergeant system at the 
tournament, two batteries of traps being in use. Another feature 
deserving comment is the comparatively low number of birds 
to be shot daily. The club found in earlier shoots that it was 
a mistake to make the events too long, cumbering up the day 
and making it hard work to run off the programme. This year 
only one 20-bird event was shot each day, the other seven numbers 
being at 15 birds each. There was added to each 15-bird purse 
the nice sum of $25, and to the 20-bird purses $50 was added each 
day; on Wednesday the millers' purse of $50, and Thursday the 
lumbermen's purse. In the former purse event, on Wednesday, 
the Club added a further sum of $50 for the competition of lady 
hooters alone, they to pay no extra entrance. Four ladies, ap- 
peared for the contest— Mrs. Shattuck and Mrs. Johnston, of 
Minneapolis; Mrs. Murray, of Stillwater; Mrs. Slocum, ol Iowa, 
their scores in this event being respectively 16, 12, 8, 5. Mrs. 
Shattuck shot in fine form during the tournament, and on the 
second day in the 20-bird event retired amid applause with a 
straight score of 20, something which but few of ' the other sex 
were able to duplicate, as a glance at the scores will show. The 
ither ladies shot with varying fortune, but pluckily and well. 
The Minneapolis Gun Club is a very strong one, having a roll 
Df about 150, with a weekly turnout perhaps of thirty shooters. 
About a dozen of the members felt strong enough to shoot 
hrough the tournament, and of these a half-dozen or more got 
uto the list of thirty high guns, totals for the two days, to each 
if which was paid the average money of $5. 
No very big winnings were made, and I doubt if any shooter 
ook away over $35 or $40 for his two days' work, though a very 
arg'e number got back all or part of their entrance money, so that 
hey felt they had had sport over which they need not feel guilty 
Ivhen considering the question of a pair of shoes for the baby, or 
i box of candy for the loved ones at home. 
There was a very wide representation present. There were on 
land Heikes, Gilbert, Budd, Courtney, Grimm, Hallowell, the 
lard-shooting youngster Hirschey, now of St. Louis, and Loomis, 
if Omaha, not to mention a host, such as Trent, Taber, Morten- 
en, Robbins and others, who make hot company for anybody, in 
<ny of the several W estern shoots in which their names appear, 
taiong others -from divers towns I observed Messrs. Long and 
Sheldon, of Mason City, la.; Johnson and Tryon, of Atfstin, 
Minn.; Jassoy and Sliver, of Stillwater, Minn., with Mr. and Mrs. 
Murray of the same city; Catamaran, Kennedy, Danz, Pfister, 
R.oedecker, Upham and others from the sister city of St. Paul; 
ateege, of Waterloo, la.; Clark, of Nora Springs, la.; Bird, of 
•"airmount, Minn. ; Robbinsand Guptel, of Fargo, N. D. ; Mortensen, 
if Britt, la. ; J. 6. Smith and Taylor, of Algona, la. ; Day, Erbe, 
3 ettit and Glazier, of Osage, la.; "old man" Thielman, of St. 
!Tloucl, Minn.; Trent and Tallman, of Wadena, Minn.; Taber, 
if Fairmount, Minn.; Fish, Scammon and J. A. Smith, of Eau 
71aire, Wis., etc. 
The referees, Mesjrs. W. Gaines and G. E. Radley, and the 
corers, Messrs. L. V. Roedecker and G. B. Hunter, did their 
vork without the first criticism. 
In the records tent Lew Harrison took care of the most artistic 
et of scores it has been my fortune to see for some time. The 
ash was kept at the office with promptness and accuracy, and 
hove all was the blessing of smooth system. 
LEADING GUNS. 
The State of Iowa was strictly in the running on the first day. 
iilbert kept up his even flight and broke 115 out of the 125 prb- 
ramme birds. Charlie Budd, who has "come to life" for keeps, 
ied him, and so did a dark horse, a young attorney of St. Paul' 
y name of D. Morrison, who shot under the name of Donaldson. 
Heikes broke 112, thus falling just back of Hirschey and Stokes, 
a local man (J. C. Jogslin), who broke 113 each. On the second 
day Budd at one time was four birds back of Gilbert in the run 
for first gun, but he closed up gamely and came out at the 
finish only one bird behind Fred. The latter was high man for 
the two days, 235 out of 250 shot at; Budd second, 234; Donaldson 
shot with remarkable eveuness, and duplicated his score of 115 
of the first day. thus running third man, with 230 broken. Grimm 
fell one bird back of Heikes on the first day, but on the total for 
the two days led Rolla one bird, scoring 226, Hirschey passed 
both of these old-timers, scoring 227. 
Following is a list of the thirty high guns, two days' average, otit 
of 250 shot at, names given in order, $5 to each gun": 
Gilbert: 235, Budd 234, Donaldson 230, Hirschey 227, Grimm 226, 
Heikes 225. Stokes 220, Courtney 216, Worthington 215, Tavlor 214, 
T. C, 211, Loomis 211, Glazier 211, Taber 211, Mack (J. E. Rob- 
bins) 209. French 20S, Milner 206, Shattuck 200, Farbcr 206, Clark

Kimball 201, Warren 10S, Graham 107, finks 197, Parker 196, 
Wilson 106. 
Tt was a high class shoot in every way, and the Northwest has 
cause to be proud of it, not only for wdiat it was, but for what it 
did and what it means. Following are the scores of the two days' 
Shooting. Sweeps were shot on Friday, which are not recorded, 
the bulk of the shooters having then left town:
