FOREST AND STREAM. 
[July 29, 1899. 
In .all probability he would have gone "straight," as he did in 
the last event he shot in. 
Admiral Courtney, Tom Keller and Schorty issued their usual 
challenge, viz.: To shoot any three men their size and weight upon 
the g:rounds. The defi was not taken up. 
Wilbur Parker was a surprise to some people, but to those who 
know him best his position as high man on the second day was 
no cause for comment. . Mr. Parker as a shooter is not an easy 
proposition for anybody to solve. 
There werei no frills about the lunch served on the ground, but 
what there was was all right. Mr. A. J. Kent, the gentleman who 
owns the ground rented by the gun club, had direct superin- 
tendence over the pie and sandwich department. His soft drinks 
were beyond reproach. 
The Providence Gun Club is a live organization, and ican boast 
of more enthusiasm to the square inch than any other gun club 
that I wot of. To build a 30x25 club house in five days is some- 
thing to brag abotit indeed; but to plan and bring to a successful 
climax such a tournament as the one above described is more 
than two or three feathers in any club's cap. 
The Old Guard was represented by Ned Tinker, one of the best 
known trap shots of Rhode Island in the days when gun-below- 
the-elbow and 21yds. -rise was the thing, with live pigeons for 
targets. Ira Paine and Mr. Tinker were giants in those days, and 
the latter's scores in the first two events on the first day show 
that Mr. Tinker's blue eyes have not forgotten how to look along 
a gun barrel, although the sight may not be as clear as it was when 
feathers flew. Mr. Tinker is well thought of by the Providence 
Gun Club he is its solitary honorary member! 
Senator >l. F. Reiner is another of those who work for the best 
interests of the Providence Gun Club. With Messrs. Root, Bain, 
Hammond, Reiner and Staniels, no gun club can go far astray. 
Another active member of the home club is Hon. Charles 
Bennett, Secretary of State for Rhode Island. Mr. Bennett was 
present on the afternoon of the second day, and took much interest 
in the proceedings at the score. 
S. G. Miller, together with his side partners, Messrs. N. C. 
Tozier and C. A. Griggs, were on hand from Haverhill, Mass. Mr. 
Miller brought with him a supply of the programmes for his club's 
one day's shoot on Aug. 8, the day preceding the Interstate 
Association's tournament at Portland, Me. The Haverhill Gun 
Club, in addition to giving a good programme for the boys to try 
their hands at, offers a favorable opportunity for shooters to get a 
little practice before the battle opens at Portland on Aug. 9. 
Thomas Howe, of Hingham, and W. Allison, of South Wey- 
mouth, were two old standbys, who brought off a straight or two 
just when they needed them. Mr. Howe was present both days,, 
but Mr. Allison only showed up on the second day of the shoot. 
Many regrets were expressed that Miskay was unable to be 
present. The Boston lady was confidently expected, but business 
undoubtedly kept Irer away and saved many a good shot from 
"being beaten by a lady." Her average of 90 per cent, on the 
second day of the Haverhill, Mass., tournament last year has not 
yet been forgotten. 
The system of dividing the purses adopted by the club was the 
only feature of the shoot that did not meet with universal approval. 
It hardly seems "equitable" that a man who has just broken 20 
straight alone should only get about 15 or 20 cents more than a 
man who has only scored 19. But such is the "equitable" system. 
When Manager Shaner arrived in New York on Saturday morn- 
ing his complexion was decidedly rosy. "This is not sunburn," 
said he; "this is due to the joy I feel at having succeeded in 
throwing 9,285 bluerocks from one set of five expert traps in one 
day. If only you hoodlums had showed up on time on Thursday 
morning I'd have thrown 10,000. Durn the clambake!" 
And speaking of the clambake: it Was great! Everybody made 
one straight at least; some two, Courtney and Dr. Webber among 
the latter. 
H. B. Collins, of St. JLouis, Mo.,_ was a tnost unexpected visitor. 
His presence was none the less enjoyable, and he held up his end 
with the best of them, even when riding on the toboggan (or 
roller coaster) with Courtney, Dickey and Gil Wheeler as his 
fellow passengers. 
H. B. Money, ssurnamed The Caddie, and Gil Wheeler were 
always on the warpath when the poor old ground hog in the field 
below the club house showed himself. Their methods might have 
bemused a red Indian, but that Rhode Island ground hog saw 
through their motions right away quick! He holed up. 
The Providence shoot was a great one, and the best ever given 
under the auspices of the Interstate Association. Now for the 
Portland tournament, Aug. 9-10. Edwaed Banks. 
Woonsocket Gti'n Club. 
WooNSocKET, E. I., July 15.— The open shoot of the Woon- 
socket Gun Club, held this afternoon, was fairly well attended, and 
although the conditions seemed to be all that cauld be desired, 
high averages were not in order. Leon W. Campbell made the 
highest average, breaking 115 in the programme of 130 targets. 
The Woonsocket team successfully defended the State Pennant, 
representing' the championship of the State of Rhode Island for 
five-men teams, against the Burrillville Gun Club by a score of 
188 to 177. A challenge has been received from the Providence 
Gun Club. The date for this match has not been fixed, but it 
will take place the first part of August. The Providence team 
will consist of the best men from the Pawtuxet, Centerdale and 
Burrillville Gun Clubs, and the Woonsocketers will h^ve to 
make a high score to keep the pennant. 
After the programme there were two extra events — a miss-and- 
out and five pair doubles. F. H. Mills was high man in the 
miss-and-out, Campbell was second and Griffith third, Campbell 
dropping his fourteenth and Griffith going out on his thirteenth 
target. A. W. Walls won first in the doubles by a score of 
9, Gethcell being second with 8.

9 6 3 .- 
Wellington, Mass., July 20.— The Boston Gun Club closed its 
season's practice at the traps yesterday afternoon at Wellington. 
Mr. Thos. Plowe, of Hingham, turned out to be the fortunate win- 
ner of the gold charm, with Mr. Woodruff and Miskay close com- 
petitors. The series has but added one more to the popular 
]ist_ now to the credit of the club, fifty different shooters com- 
peting, all under harmonious conditions of distance handicap 
and moneyless events. The positions of prize winners are given 
in full below, the many good scores included being more than 
countci-balanced by most enjoyable days used in making them. 
Yesterday's gathering was but slightly composed of the regular 
devotees, four from South Framingham, two from Lynn, also an 
odd one or two completely outnumbering the home squad. This 
was hardly hospitable, bvit with Mr. Gordon at Blue Hill, Me.; 
Mr. Woodruff at Henniker. N. H.: Mr. Sheffield at the Rangeleys, 
and Messrs. Howe and Leroy at Providence, not to mention 
others who have departed without leaving their addresses, the 
club made the best showing possible under the circumstances. 
The squad who yesterday put in an appearance on the later train 
rendered a good account of themselves and thoroughly enjoyed 
the different events. The scores in the match were good, for a 
very persistent wind bothered the angles, or rather the shooters. 
Mr. Isham's 25 for a first trial over the magautrap requires no 
excuses; likewise the scores complete of the Framingham quar- 
tette, which were accomplished tmder the same conditions.
