Tlie monthly shoot of the Brooklyn Gun Club, Saturday after- 
iioon of this week, besides having the usual pleasant attractions, is 
likely to have a warm two-men team competition to determine who 
is who, and how and why. This came from a remark made by 
Mr. L. Harrison, who said, in a far away tone of voice that he 
and Harold Money could beat any two shooters about New York. 
The result was that Messrs. Banks and Remsen, Carl von 
Lengerke, and C. W. Dudley, Dr. A. A. Webber and W. Hopkins 
and Capt. Money and J. B. Hopkins announced that they were 
anxious to know all about it; so they will shoot at 200 targets 
per team, and John S. Wright, with his customary beneficence, 
declared that he has a $10 bill for the winning team. 
Under date of July 8, Mr. John Parker, of the Peters Cartridge 
Co,, informs us that he will hold his eighth annual international 
tournament in Detroit, Sept. 19 to 22, inclusive, at live birds and 
targets. Five hundred dollars cash will be added by Peters 
Cartridge Co. besides several international trophies. He adds: 
"1 would like to hear from Indianapolis, Dayton, Cincinnati, 
Nashville and Chattanooga, and arrange a circuit of shoots to 
follow mine, one week after the other, as was talked of last year. 
Mr. J. W. Todd, of Charlotte, N. C, was a visitor at Lynd- 
hurst, witnessing the contest for the championship of New Jersey 
between Messrs. Money and Morfey, last Saturday. He was quite 
regularly in the tournaments as a competitor at one time, not so 
very long ago, and in the programme events of the afternoon 
showed that he retained his old high skill, though shooting a 
strange gun. He acted as a judge in the championship contest. 
On -Saturday, July 15, the White Plains Gun Club will hold a 
target shoot, commencing at 10 o'clock, at the Oak Tree Hotel 
grounds. There are twelve events at 10, 15. 20 and 25 targets, en- 
trance, 50 cents, .$1 and $1.50. No. 11, at 25 targets, has $3 entry. 
To event 12 $0 will be added. Those who wish may shoot for 
targets only. Stages to and from grounds. 
The Vincennes Gun Club, of Vincennes, Ind,, has given two 
handicap shoots this season, merchandise prizes, and they evoke 
a high degree of interest among the members. Vincennes is in 
the midst of a great game region, and' was the scene of a great 
field trial in 1880, and is only a short distance from Bicknell, Ind., 
where many good field trials have been held. 
In a match at 100 live birds, $100 a side, July 7, at Lyndhurst, 
N. J., on Tom Morfey's grounds, Mr. Aaron Doty defeated Mr. 
H. M. Heflich by the excellent score of 93 to 85. The birds were a. 
rare good lot, and as the grounds are exceptionally hard, the 
boundary being under 50yds., the score is first class. 
Mr. Harold Money defeated T. W. Morfey for the champion- 
ship of New Jersey and the E. C. cup in the contest for it, held 
at New Jersey last Saturday, by the score of 49 to 44. He shot 
in admirable time and precision, and had the honor of making 
the-highest score yet recorded in the competition for this popular 
trophy. 
The famous representative of the Hunter Arms Co., Mr. Harvey 
McMurchy, made a short visit to New York last week, and was 
the recipient of the glad hand among his many shooting friends 
in Sportsmen's Row_ during the visits he made in that section 
on Thursday and Friday. 
The impetus in trap-shooting matters, particularly in the West, 
is a most gratifying sign in the trap-shooting world. The con- 
ternplated movement toward a central trap-shooting point around 
which all can try conclusions is most commendable. There is no 
reason why it should not be a success. 
Mr. Aaron Doty, of Paterson, N. J., and Mr. Harold Money, 
of Oakland, N. J., have arranged a live-bird match, $100 a side, 
100, birds, the contest to take place at Lyndhurst, N. J., on 
Friday of this week. 
Aug. 15 to 17, inclusive, are the dates fixed upon fbr the ninth 
annual tournament of the Arkansas .State Sportsmen's Association. 
The prospects are set forth in another column by Mr. Paul R. 
Litzke. 
Mr. Fred Hoey, who at one time was one of the most active 
and skillful of live-bird shots, has been appointed manager of 
the New York Base Ball Club. 
Mr. Noel Money is expected to arrive in New York some time 
the latter part of this month, thence goes to England a few days 
thereafter.
