While the management did succeed in fini.shing the event, it wa,s 
impossible to shoot the tie off, and it was agreed by those interested 
to settle the ownership of the trophy in a 25-bir'd contest on the 
following day at 2 o'clock 
Fourth Day, Friday, April 28 — Trophy Shoot-off. 
The conditions were most favorable for a capital race, as the air 
was clear and bracing and there was a good strong wind that was 
favorable to the birds. All the principals wei-e on hand promptly 
at the time set for the commencement of the race, so there was no 
delay in this respect, and the race began on schedule time. Nau- 
man was the first shooter up, and he failed to score, though the bird 
he drew was rather am easy one. When he duplicated this on the 
very next bird it was evident that he was rattled, for he complained 
of not knowing where he was shooting, though he was iiot visibly 
perturbed. Herman could not get beyond his 3d bird, as he lost 
his 4th, an incomer; this, a very fast twisting bird, was harder 
than the flight would indicate. Gottlied, the more experienced 
one of the trio, was faring very well, and was killing his birds in 
excellent time. 
The first 10 birds were very poor, but after that there was a 
marked improvement, so that from this on some e.N:cellent shooting 
was done by both Gottlieb and Herman, though jMauman was virtu- 
ally out of the race from the start, and slobbered most of the birds 
he did score. But he did kill two very hard birds, his 11th and 
19lh. When Herman lost his 11th, a very fast twisting outgoer, it 
was generally conceded that Gottlieb had the race won, and such 
afterward proved to be the case, as he finished with a straight 
score of 25, though he came very near losing his 14th, a bird 
very similar to the one Herman lost. This bird was oflf as. soon 
as the trap opened, and twisted wickedly; ajjparently it was not 
hit very hard, but it circled around and lit just in bounds, and 
here the dog managed to catch it. Gottlieb's other star kill was 
' his 11th. Herman finished with 23 and Nauman with 19. Thus 
Gottlieb won the second trophy this year that the Schmelzer Arras 
Co. had put up for competion.

After the race a miss-and-out was started, and here Gottlieb added 
17 more straight kills to his string, making 42, all he shot at. 
He and Fanning divided the money at this juncture, though tan- 
ning was there by virtue of a re-entry, having missed his first 
bird. 
Boston GuQ Club, 
Wellington, Mass., April 28.— Though no remarkable scores 
Were placed at the third prize shoot of the Boston Gun Club, 
April 26, the very nicest kind of a time was enjoyed by those pres- 
ent. A very welcome addition to the crowd was Mr. Sheffield, just 
home from a Western business tour, extending over two months, 
and it must be admitted that lack of practice seemed in this case 
to work contrary to rule, as with a strange gun he started the 
afternoon's shooting in exemplary fashion. 
Others jogged along in the same old way, content with an 8, a 
7 or a 6, according to whether the event was at pairs or unknown. 
All shooting was over a magautrap, event No. 4 being somewhat 
new, as the trap was set to throw straightaway, which gave known 
angles aU the time, varying as the shooter changed his position 
on the platform.

Centerdale Gon Clufa. 
Centerdale, R. L., April 30.— Onr third medal and merchandise 
shoot yesterday had fourteen entries, and the scratch men had to 
shoot hard to get a few points. Inman and Phettiplace tied for 
first with 24, and Griffith and Hammond, both scratch, scored 23. 
Before and after this event, eleven other events were shot. The 
afternoon was perfect for shooting, and consequently some good 
scores were made. . . , , 
Dr. Hammond tried a new load, with which he was very suc- 
cessful, scoring 26 out of 27. Remington is getting back to where 
he belongs, and before long he will make them all hustle. 
Griffith shot in his usual strong form, but shot remarkable at 
doubles, scoring 15 out of 16. Inman and Phettiplace are both 
shooting strong, and will surely lose their liberal handicap after 
the next shoot. Next Saturday all the boys are going to attend 
the opening shoot of the Pascoag Gun Club, and you can rest 
assured that we will all have a good time:

Lincoln Gun Club Tournament. 
Lincoln, Neb., April 24. — Herewith are scores made at our 
tournament, April 18" to 21 inclusive. The cliib's system of - free 
targets gave universal satisfaction, and' the shoot passed off very 
pleasantly: ' ' ' ' ' 
The first day was very fine, and the scores oil this day were 
the best during the meet. ' 
On the second day the sky was covered with' black clouds, and 
the wind blew a gale directly' into the shooters' faces, which 
made good scores impossible. 
The third day was clear and cool, with a strong wind blowing 
from the north directly over the traps and bearing the targets 
close to the ground. Un the second day the club gave a handsome 
gold badge, which was event No, 5, emblematic of the interstate 
championship, which was won by D. D. Bray, of Syracuse, Neb. 
A rather singular occurrence was that in a field of thirty-five entries 
only one man should break straight in the first ten. It is prob- 
ably due to the fact that Mr. Bray has been a trap-shooter in 
Nebraska winds for twenty-three years, and no doubt better ac- 
quainted with the erratic night of the targets on that occasion.

The meet was a success. There was no ill-feeling engendered 
among the sportsmen and nothing occurred to mar the pleasure 
of those managing the four days' shooting, or of those partici- 
pating in the events. It was not a money-making tournament, 
because the cKib put every dollar raised into expenses and prizes. 
However, the club will come ovit even. The committee having 
the tournament in charge was Messrs. C. E. Latshaw, George L. 
Carter and W. D. Bain. These gentlemen were warmly congratu- 
lated over their success in the management, and the visiting 
sportsmen went away feeling that the entertainment had been 
perfect. The ckib donated the targets to the contestants.

Trap at Shasta, Cal. 
Shasta, Cal., April 17. — One of the most successful shooting 
tournaments ever held in northern California was held on the 
grounds of the Red Bluff Gun Club, April 16. — The grounds are 
among the best in the State, and the management made the ar- 
rangements as nearly perfect as could be done. There were repre- 
sentatives from nearly every town north of Sacramento. With the 
exception of a strong wmd during the forenoon shoot, which 
materially lowered the scores, jt was almost a perfect day. The 
following is the score: _ -

Thos. J. Edgecomb, 
Mr, Geo. T. Kifkendall, of Wilkesbarre, Pa., under date of 
April 25, concerning a new gun club organized recently under the 
title of the Dallas Gun Club, writes us as follows: "A large num- 
ber of citizens of Dallas, I..,uzerne county, Pa., met in the parlor of 
Raub's Hotel, Monday evening, April 24, 1899, and organized the 
Dallas Gun Club. Permanent officers were chosen as follows: 
Charles H. Cooke, President; Geo. B. Hileman, Vice-President; 
Geo, T. Kirkendall, Secretary; Edward Hunter, Treasurer; and 
Dr, C. A. Spencer and John '1. Phillips, Directors. A constitution 
and by-lavs's similar to those issued and recommended by the Inter- 
state Manufacttirers' and Dealers' Association was unanimously 
adopted. Those present were very enthusiastic, about twenty-five 
members were enrolled and the club bids fair to be a social and 
sporting success, "
