Baltimore Indoor Range. 
The BaltifflOfe Sun of July 27 lias the following interesting ac- 
count of a new range in prospect in that city, as follows: 
It is among the probabilities that a long-needed institution is 
about to be established. For a year or more Dr. Samuel J. Fort 
has agitated the establishing of modern revolver and rifle ranges 
in Baltimore. A place which could be easily adapted for the pur- 
.pose has been found in the large building on Fayette street, oppo- 
site Ford's Opera House, occupied in part by Clarke Bros, tor 
bowling alleys. In the second floor a range of over 100ft. can be 
built- 
Dr. Fort has in these columns shown the great good that would 
ensue from pistol practice by cavalry militiamen and police of- 
ficers and the advantagees that would accrue if ladies would learn 
to handle a revolver. He cited a case in point by showing the 
quick improvements made in the shooting by members of Troop 
A Maryland National Guard. 
Besides the civilians, there is a large number of citizens who are 
■especially interested in rifle and pistol shooting. As soon as the 
■fall arrives there will be doubtless an increased interest in mat- 
ters military. 
Commander Isaac E. Emerson, of the Naval Reserves, is al- 
ready on record as advocating ranges where the Reserves, without 
too great sacrifice of time, could practice shooting small arms in 
the daytime and by artificial light. Col. Willard Howard, of the 
Fourth Regiment, has also declared himself in favor of having his 
staff and line practice regularly. Members of the Fifth Regiment 
have been doing some desultory practice. 
It is now proposed to call a meeting of those interested and to 
have them inspect the proposed ranges, and then to form a club 
or association to regulate matters. If the plan does not miscarry 
monthly prizes will be given, and team and individual matches will 
he shot among members of the same troop, regiment or company, 
and between different companies or regiments. Certain hours will 
be set apart for civilians, and if a ladies' club can be organized on 
special afternoons the ranges will be devoted to their exclusive use. 
Rifle at Shell Mound Range. 
San Francisco, July 24.- — There was a good attendatice of marks- 
men at Shell Mound Range yesterday and some good work was 
done. In the Gerniania Club's buUseye shoot Mr. Schuster made 
the very fine score of eighteen 6in. bullseyes in 20 shots (only one 
score of 20 shots allowed each monthl). In the same club's con- 
tinuous competition, shots, Dr. Rodgers made 74 rings-;-25, 24, 25 — 
the highest ticket so far this year. This puts him considerably in 
the lead for the first prize — .flOO. Best 10 scores of ?. shots each 
to win: The Doctor has 721 rings so far; D. B. Faktor is second, 
with 715. Competition will continue until Dec. 31. J. E. Gor- 
man, the expert pistol shot, did some good work at the Golden 
Gate Butts making the following scores consecutively at 50yds. 
with vS. & \V. pistol, long rifle cartridge, standard American tar- 
get, 10 shots: 92, ill, 95, 95, 91, 96, 91. _ 
At the recent shoot of the Golden Gate Rifle and Pistol Club, 
open to all, the handsome sum of $255 was netted. So this young 
cliib starts out with good prospects.

Clui secretaries are invited to send their scores for fublicatipn ill 
these columns, also any news notes they may care to have printed. Ties

The following from a Canadian paper, descriptive of a contest 
which occurred on July 22, recounts the details of a close race: 
"'An interesting match for the individual trophy was shot at 
Montreal on Saturday, when T. M. Craig, of the Sherbrooke Gun 
Club, met W. L. Cameron, of Montreal Mr. T. M. Craig was 
right after it, and almost brought \k back to Sherbrooke. The 
first shoot was a tie. Craig led by 3 birds up to the pairs, when 
he dropped, and both came out with 41 birds out of 50. In the 
shoot-oft Craig again led up to the pairs, when he fell away, and 
Cameron came out with 22 out of 26 to Craig's 21. Cameron won 
the tronhy on Dominion Day here, and since that time has de- 
feated E. C. Eaton in his endeavor to grasp the coveted cup." 
The contemplated establishment of a trap-shooting park on 
a large scale at Chicago, as set forth by Mr. E. S. Rice in our 
trap columns this week, is worthy of the earnest attention of all 
trap-shooters in America. In this broad land there is room for 
several such institutions, which will help shooting in particular 
and in general, and thus will help each other. We would be 
pleased to see the park established on the broad lines which Mr. 
Rice presents. It would stimulate the old shooters in renewed 
activity, and would add new ones to the list for hundreds of 
miles abo«t its vicinity, \,t\ the good work go on. 
rhi? Ferd V. Van Dyke fflcmorial fuhd received material, support 
at the shoot of the Pawling- Rod and Gun Club Saturday ot last 
■^veck. Mr. Horatio Nelson, the captain of the club, won the 
prize (a gun case) in one of the main events and immediately put 
it up again for competitionj the proceeds to be donated to the 
memorial fund. The club in this event threw the targets free. 
This resulted in $10 in cash for the fvmd, which Mr. Nelson forth- 
with handed over to Mr. Edward Banks, who is a member of the 
committee having the fund in charge. It was whispered about 
privately that this;was but one of fnany good deeds done by Mr. 
Nelson, and that his heart was always warm and in the right place. 
One year ago July 4, "Van" attended the tournament of the 
Pawling Club, and though weak and ill shot in excellent form. 
His sterling worth as a man made friends of all with whom he 
c^me in contact. The material tribute of esteem from the Pawling 
shoot is one which is open to others who may be pleased to 
adopt it. 
Mr. R. W. Gorham, the secretary of the Mount Kisco Rod and 
Gun Club, Mount Kisco, N. Y., was in attendance at the Pawling 
shoot last week and reported that the club's new house and grounds, 
which are just without the corporate limits, are all that could be 
desired. They are level, have a good background and are pleas- 
antly situated. The inaugural shoot takes place on Saturday of 
this week, for which a programme of fifteen events is provided. 
There i.« a total of 225 targets, with a total entrance of .$21.20. 
Targets will be thrown Sergeant .system of three traps. Shooters 
may shoot for targets only. The club contemplates an event, the 
proceeds of which will be donated to the Van Dj'ke memorial 
fund. The club hopes to have a good attendance from New 
York and vicinity. 
John S. Wright, manager of the Brooklyn Gun Club, has an- 
nounced that he will give a live-bird shoot on Mr. Tom W. 
Morfey's grounds, at Lyndhurst, N. J., some time in the latter 
part of this month, and that it' will be a function recherche in 
every particular. :\ pink tea in comparison will turn pale. Mr. 
Wright has not yet confided to the boys just what the programme 
will be, but it is safe to assert that he will arrange a programme 
in every particular satisfactory. Mr. T. W. Morfey has pledged 
his word to provide birds specially made for guns bored for nitro 
loads, with his trade-mark blown in all and each of them, these 
birds making a very flat trajectory many times in their flight over 
and beyond the boundary. Out of 400 birds of his recently trapped 
he had but one sitter. 
Under date of July 29 Mr. C, F. Lambert, of Lynn, Mass,, 
writes us as follows: "The present outlook for our tournament 
oft Aug. S is very good, and the club will spare no effort to have 
a smooth-running shoot. Those shooters who wish to make the trip 
from Boston to Portland by steamer can easily make connections 
by leaving Haverhill at 5:15 P. M., arriving at Boston in ample 
time for same. Those who are planning to attend this shoot can 
ship ammunition, .guns, etc., care of S. G. Miller, and same will be 
delivered to grounds free. While the hotels of Haverhill are not so 
numerous, the Thorndike will on trial be found to afford good ac- 
commodations — better, in fact, than many cities of the size of 
Haverhill can boast." 
The Interstate tournaments this year have been gratifyingly 
successful to all concerned in them, and the indications are that 
the next one at Portland, Aug. 9 and 10, will be equally success^ 
ful. The programme is arranged with a special view to the in- 
terest of the amateur, the professional shooters being permitted to 
shoot for targets only. The Haverliill Gun Club holds its_ shoot 
on Aug. 8, so that shooters en route to Portland can participate 
in_ its competition without extra transportation expense or _ in- 
convenience. This the shooters should note and keep in mind. 
The Haverhill shooters are as pleasant a group of gentlemen as 
one could ask to associate with, and a good and pleasant day 
is assured to all who pull their latchstring. 
The annual meeting of the Rochester Rod and Gun Club was 
held Friday evening .July 14, and officers were elected as follows: 
President, Dr. J. L.'Weller; Vice-President, Thos. R. Griffith; 
Secretary, John 'B. Mullan; Treasurer, Sam B. Williams; Auditor, 
Wm. F. Brinsmaid; Historian, W. C. Hadley. The reports pre- 
sented bv the secretary-treasurer, show a flourishing condition, and 
a committee was given ftill power to proceed at once upon some 
needed improvements on the club's grounds and make arrange- 
ments for live-bird shooting, which of late has become quite a 
feature in our club shoots. 
Trap-shooting is gaining a broad footing in Louisiana, a State 
wherein game abounds to a degree plentiful beyond the dreams 
of the Northern shooter. The Donaldsonville, La., Chief, in re- 
counting the particulars of a shoot of the St, James Gun Club, 
presents this for information: "The grounds at Salsburg planta- 
tion are now equipped with both Sargent system and the 
Marautrap, which the shooters can use at will." This is not bad 
for a beginning, and later on the Sergeant system will be applied 
to the traps instead of equipping the grounds, probably. 
The Parker Gun Club, of Meriden, Conn., will hold their fifth 
annual Labor Day shoot at their grounds, near Hanover Park, 
Sept. 4, A magautrap will be used. A good programme will be 
put out soon. A special attraction will be the dinner, which will 
be served in the grove near the club house, and will be known 
as a "sheep bake," which will be cooked and served by an ex- 
perienced party who makes a specialty of this kind of feasts. A 
good time is assured, and all are welcome. For further informa- 
tion address C. S. Howard, Sec'y. 
The programme of the Haverhill Gun Club, Haverhill. Mass., 
fixed for Aug. 8 as to date, has a very attractive programme of 
eight events, with a total of 200 targets. Of these, one is at 10 tar- 
gets, 70 cents entrance; six at 15 targets, $1.30 entrance, and one 
at 100 targets, $6 entrance. The latter is divided into four 25- 
target events, with additional optional sweeps of ?1,50 each. The 
club adds $25 to this event, subject to the regular division govern- 
ing the events. Targets 2 cents. Sweepstakes optional. Lunch 
served on the grounds. Shooting commences at 10 o'clock. 
There is a most commendable competition shown in the trap- 
shooting world, the gladiators of the shotgun challenging a 
return match with spirit and determination when defeated. Mr. 
Charles A. Young has challenged Mr. J. A. R. Elliott for a 
contest for the cast iron stove lid. Mr. W. R. Crosby is also 
camping on Mr. Elliott's trail, and the indications are that to 
hold and to keep the trophies will be a succession of victorie.s 
wrested from the very best talent that America can produce. 
Mr. J. A. R. Elliott is at pre.sent at Eaaton, Talbot county, Md., 
at his" brother's place. He has asked those in authority for a 
copy of the conditions governing the E. C. cup competition, as he 
is infercntially studymg up the conditions governing the cups in 
his possession, so that any debates concerning them may be more 
inexpensive to him hereafter. He will accept Mr. W, R. Crosby's 
challenge, the time and place to be named at a later date. 
It was Doctors' Day at the Brooklyn Gun Club's shoot last 
Saturday, there being four of the lights of that distinguished pro- 
fession present, and they shot matches right and left in a manner 
which is worthy of emulation. Their shooting, too, was of good 
quahty. No man has improved so much, however, as Dr. F. H. 
Crearner, his time and general execution now being nearer to that 
of the best experts than it was some weeks ago. 
Mr. Everett Smith, of Schenectady, N, Y., was a visitor in New 
York on Monday of this week. He was brown as a nut, after the 
exposure in Canada incident to a fishing trip. The largest fish he 
caught was a muscalonge, wliich weighed lllbs.— a good one. His 
visit was a pleasant one, though he at first posed as a man of 
provincial habits; but if that is true we do not know what is 
cosmopolitan. 
By inadvertence the word "target" was omitted from Mr. Edward 
Banks' communication concerning the forthcoming tournaments 
of the Interstate Association, published iti our columns last week. 
The sentence should have read as follows: "It was, also decided 
to hold during the year 1900 the first aiinual Grand American 
Handicap Target Tournament, the dates for Uiis tournament being 
the week commencing June 11." 
Messrs. F. W. Mofi'ett, ot Bloomfield, N. J., and E. Morgan, 
ot Paterson, N. J., have arranged a live-bird contest, the former 
standing at 32yds. and shooting at 25 birds, the latter at 29yds. and 
shooting at 29 birds, for $25 per side, the race to come off at 
Lyndhurst. Tom Morfey has promised some of his best Harvey- 
ized, hand-sewed birds for the occasion. The race is fixed to take 
place on Thxirsday of this week. 
The live-bird match between Messrs. 11. R. Bender, of Fanwood, 
N. J., and E. Morgan, of Paterson, at Singac, N. J., on Thursday 
of last week, resulted in a victory for the latter by a score of 16 
to 15. Bender stood at 30yds. and shot at 25; Morgan stood at 
2Syds. and had 28 birds to shoot at, but shot at 25 only. The birds 
were very poor flyers. 
Messrs. F. W. Moffett, and-(i. A. Hopper of Paterson. N. J., 
have arranged a match, to be shot on Aug. 24, on Mr, T. ^^^ 
Morfey's grounds, at Lyndhurst, N. J., the conditions being 100 
birds 'and $100 a side. This is expected to be a very close and 
good race, Morfey has promised some phantom pigeons for the 
event. 
From Worcester, Mass., Mr. F. Bucklin, secretary of the Ba^ 
State Gtin Club, reports an encouraging revival of trap-shooting 
matters isi his section. The club's recent tournament was quite 
successful, and its management promises to hold another tourna 
raent about Sept. 10, with added money .^d merchsthdi^e prizes as 
a material attraction. 
The Hudson Gun Club, of Jersey City, will hold a shoot on 
Atig. 20 as a kind of house-warming event, in honor of the com- 
pletion of its new club house, which is more commodious and bet- 
ter equipped every way than was the old one. Plenty of shoot- 
ing at a very reasonable rate is a feature of their pleasant shoots. 
The Interstate Park Association, we learn, is pushing its work 
very energetically, and will begin the work of preparing the 
ground, building fences, digging foundations, etc., within a few 
weeks. It is .said that the hotel and casino will be mammoth 
structures, with first-class appointments in every detail. 
At Singac, N. J., Thursday of last week, Mr. F. W. Moffett, of 
Bloomfield, N. J., defeated Mr. E. Morgan, of Paterson, the former 
standing at 32yds. and shooting at 25 birds, the latter at 28yds. and 
shooting at 28' birds, for $25 a side. The scores were: Moffett 22, 
Morgan 20. The birds were largely sitters and poor flyers. 
The secretary of the Piasa Gun Club, Mr. F. C. Riehl, writes us 
as follows; "The Piasa Gun Club will give its t_liird annual fall 
tournament at Douglas Park range, Alton, HI., Sept. 28 and 29. 
This will be an open shoot, and . every lover- of trap-ahqoting is 
invited. Programmes will follow soon." 
Mr. Paul R. Litzke has a most interesting collection of trap 
news in "Arkansas and the South" in our trap columns thih 
week. It coyers the contest for the Busch medal, at St. Louis, a 
little 100-target matter of definition between Messrs. Gilbert, Budd 
and Klein, doings of the Capital Gun Club, etc. 
The Hastings Gun Club, of Hastings, Neb., announces through 
its manager, Mr. W. S. Duer, that its target' tournament tor 
amateurs only will be held on Sept. 19, 20 and 21, and that $500 
will be added. Targets will be thrown at 2 cents each. 
The first of the series of intercity shoots between the Phoenix 
©un Club, of Phoenixv.ille; the West Chester Gun Club, of West 
Chester; the Schuler Gun Club, of Pottstown, will be shot at 
West Chester, Pa., on Aug. 17. 
The Canton Gun Club, Canton, 111., will hold its annual tourna- 
ment on Aug. 23. Full information concerning- it will be 
furnished by the secretary, Mr. J. C. Thompson, Jr., Canton, III, 
to those who apply. 
Col. Springer, of the Columbus Gun Club, won the Peters 
Cartridge Co. medal, at the tournament held at Warm Springs, Ga. 
Owing to a press of matter on our trap columns this week, sev- 
eral reports of shoots are necessarily held over till next week.

ON LONG ISLAND. 
Hell Gate Gun Club. 
New York, July 30.— Herewith are the scores made at the Hell 
Gate Gun Club's tournament and clambake, held July 25, m 
Brooklyn, L. I. The weather was extremely unfavorable, being 
rainy the entire daj', with a few stormless intervals. 
Fifteen sweepstake events were shot off, nevertheless, but the 
mecliandise event was the main one. 
In it seventy-five shooters lined up to the score, which, adding 
the re-entries, footed up a total of ninety. This event was a 
20-bird handicap affair, for a number of merchandise prizes, the 
handicap allowances being added instead of being shot out. 
Thanks to Col. John H. Voss, Secretary Eugene Doenick, George 
K. Breit, John Wellbrock, John P, Dannefelser and other mem- 
bers, there were a large number of prizes. 
Two sets of traps were kept going from 10 o'clock in the morn- 
ing until nearly 7 in the evening. No. 1 being run under the 
Sergeant system, the other set at rapid firing. Minta (Mrs. Peter 
Ganns), who is a clever live-bird sliot, tried her hand at clay 
birds in the merchandise event, and scored the limit. In the 
sweepstake .shooting. Dr. Ashley A, Webber and Louis Schorte- 
meier carried off the honors, and incidentall ythe cash. The scores: 
Merchandise event, 20 birds, handicap: Dr. A. A. Webber,
