Team Shoot. 
This event was started immediately after the ties in the diamond 
badge contest were decided, which was after dinner, Wednesday. 
There were fourteen clubs represented in this race, and fifteen 
were entered. The conditions permit each club to enter two 
teams, but only the local ones availed themselves of this oppor- 
tunity. 
The programme stipulated that the entry in the contest would be 
$20 per team, but some of the clubs protested against this, so 
it was changed to $10, or rather the price of the birds. Thus 
there was nothing but the added money to contest for, which 
amounted to $100, and was divided 50, 30 and 20 per cent. 
The Du Pont Gun Club, composed of Marshall, Bingham, Crosby 
and Powers, and the Peoria Gun Club No. 2, represented by Port- 
man, Heilnuin, Shoff and Sammis, tied for first on 39 out of 40, 
Crosby and ileiUnan being the unfortunate ones. 
Rock Island and Pekin clubs tied on 37, and divided second 
money. Four cJuos tied for third, Aledo, Geneseo, Canton and 
the Alpine of Chicago. 
First money netted each team $25; second paid $15, and third 
remunerated each to the extent of $5. 
Individually and collectively the shooting in tliis event was very 
good, as altogether these teams averaged nearly 90 per cent., si.K 
being the lowest scored by any of the principals, while straight 
scores were numerous. 
The birds were a mixed lot, improving as the race progressed. 
On the first day there was no wind, though there was a light 
breeze on the second day. 
It is well to understand that this event began on Wednesday, and 
was not decided until the following day. 
The conditions were four men to a team for the club team 
championship, 10 birds per ma-n, 40 per team; entrance price of 
the birds, for a purse of $100, three moneys, 50, 30 and 20:

L, C. Smith Cap, 
This trophy is indicative of the State championship at inanimate 
targets, and the competition is entirely different from the other 
target events, it being shot one man up, three unknown traps, 
20 targets per man. These conditions were evidently not to the 
liking of many, as the entry in this race was not vei-y big, only 
•thirty taking part in it. Of this number Reih!, Crosby and 
Ruble broke straight. They decided to divide the proceeds of 
the entry next year, and shot ofT for the cup. Everyone expected 
that this would be a closely contested shoot-off, but it came to 
a very quick termination, and only nine targets were needed 
to reach a conclusion. Reihl scored all of his, but Crosby could 
get no further than his 6th, while Ruble lost his 5th. Mr. C. 1<. 
Reihl is a comparatively new shooter and hails from Alton, 111. 
He used a Parker, Leader and Du Pont. Powers, J. Hoff and 
Stannard divided second money, $70, and shot of? for the 300 shells 
that were at issue. These Powers won, but generously gave them 
*°Geo° Roll shot out Marshall and De Wolf, who were tied on 18 
with him. This gave h^m a fishing rod. They of course divided the 
$50. Seven tied on 17, and divided $40, while Morgan, of Chicago, 
and Harris shot out the others and divided the six quarts. 
The conditions of this event were 20 targets, three unknowti 
traps, entrance $5, birds extra. Winner this year to receive all 
the entrance next year. The scores:

Trap at Singac. 
Singac, N. J., May 10. — Messrs. T. H. Fletcher and Arthur 
Bunn shot a match here to-day at 25 live birds, the conditions 
of which were that each stood at 2Syds., the former having 
three extra birds to shoot at. He won out on even terms, hence 
the extra birds were not required to finish his competition. 
There also was a match on for to-day at 50 live birds between 
Messrs. Bunn and Moffett, but owing to other interests engaging 
the attention of the latter, he could not be present, and the 
match in consequence did not come off. The birds were barely 
an average lot, though there was an occasional good one, of 
which Fletcher's 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th, ITth, 19th, 21st and 
22d were noticeable, and the same applies to Bunn's 5th, 7th, 12th, 
19th and 21st. The score follows:

ON LONG ISLAND. 
Brooklyn Gun Club. 
Brooklyn, L. I., May 13.— The attendance of visitors was quite 
large, considering that the weather indications were not of the 
best. Dr. Kemble was in fine form, and shot exceedingly well.

event follows names in the list of shooters. All tied in the main 
event on shooting their allowances. Then the ties were shot off 
on 15 singles and 5 pairs, the scores then being as in event No, 5 
in the scores. On the second ties Kemble, Scheubel, F. S. Thomp- 
son and Bramwell tied.

Fort Smith Gun CIttb. 
Fort Smith, Ark., May 9.— On May 9, after the races were 
over, the shoot of the Fort Smith Gun Club, which had been 
postponed from Saturday on account of rain, was run off. Several 
new shooters were present. Messrs. Clark and Trobridge being 
among t*ie number. Both shot exceedingly well considering that 
is was their first effort over the grounds of this club. The day 
was fine, the birds M'ere not thrown hard, but the shooting was 
horrible. Nothing like it has been seen on the grounds prior to 
this time. Everybody had an "off" day. and it seemed that no 
one could make a run of 10 straight, nor was it done during the 
day. Following is the score:

Boston Gun Club. 
Wellington, Mass., May 12.— Good scores resulted at the !t«t 
Wednesday shoot of the Boston Oun Club, at vVeiimgton. Fine 
weather conditions aided of course, and it only remained for some- 
body to take full advantage of them. Mr. Griffith, of Pascoag, 
R. I., proved the man of the hour, scoring &1 out of his 100, 
placing his 30 straig^ht in the match in his usual quiet fashion, yet 
none the less decisively. His targets throughout the shoot were 
centered well, denoting accurate aim and steady hold, with prob- 
ably also his frequent practice over a magautrap, standing him 
in good stead. At the conclusion of the match he was warmly 
congratulated by the home crowd, who are suHiciently sportsman- 
like to rejoice as much when a visitor walks off with the honors 
after earning them as when it is one of themselves. 
Others shot well too. Mr. Howe with 86 targets, six 9s and four 
8s out of 100; Gordon, Allison, Leroy, Miskay and Sheffield with 
at least a srnall straight. Scores:

Notes of the Chicago Trade. 
Messrs. George B. Carpenter & Co., of Chicago, have put 
out one of the handsomest catalogues ever prepared in their line 
of trade. This is being distributed under the advertising super- 
vision of Mr. Ben Carpenter. The many friends of the latter 
gentleman will be very glad to hear that he is now practically 
recovered from the operation for appendicitis, which kept him 
in his bed for some weeks. 
Messrs. Von Lengerke & Antoine, of this city, our enterprising 
retail people, have within the month issued a fishing tackle 
catalogue which is very well worth the while of any angler to send 
for and read. 
Retail trade in all lines of sporting goods in Chicago is re- 
ported flourishing, the weather being now such as to encourage 
sporting travel and its consequent investments in sportine goods.
