It has been suggested that the doings of a club do not become 
news till they are published, but it is possible that age may 
render news too good for the mind as age may render cheese too 
good for the palate of many. This is submitted as a matter for 
consideratioti of club secretaries who send us scores of club shc^ois 
two veelcs or a month after the shoots have taken place, and also 
why we may consider that they may need more age to ripeti 
thoroughly before publication. It gives us pleasure to publish 
newrs, but a tournament held during the reign of the Ramessids, 
beginning about 1460 B.C., would hardly be considered news at 
the present day. ^ 
DRIVERS AND TWISTERS. 
Clui secretaries are invited to sejid their scores for publication in 
these columns, also any news notes they -may care to have jirinted. Ties 
on all events are considered as divided unless otherwise reported. Mail 
all such matter to Forest and Stream Fnbliski?ig Cotn/any, 3^6 Broad- 
way, New York. 
Dr. James E. Gaston, of "Mineral Ridge, O., under date of 
Aug. 14, writes us as follows: "By a considerable outlay we have 
been able to secure Sq^uaw Creek Park as the place for our tourna- 
ment instead of Midway. This park is on the hue of the Mahoning 
Valley Electric Railway, between Niles and Girard, Trumbull 
county, O. It is one of the most picturesque and popular parks 
in the State. On days of our tournament, Sept. 26 and 27, special 
cars, aside from regular cars every half hour, will leave both 
Voungstown and Warren, making very fast tiine to the park. We 
will put in our programme, already made up, a special shoot for 
one hamnierless ejector gun, value $105; another for one L. C. Smith 
hammerless ejector, value $105; one take-down Winchester repeater, 
also one merchandise shoot, first prize 500 smokeless powder shells, 
second one Bristol steel fishixig rod, third order to Gun Barrel 
Treatment Co. for holder to have barrels treated, fourth one ma- 
hogany fancy cigar box. The park has the finest location for 
sliooting in the State. From present indications we will have the 
largest attendance of any shoot in the country, as well as more 
entries." 
Sept. 4, Labor Day, is fixed iipdil a"S a flay for a warm time 
for the shooters of Cleveland and those from elsewhere 
who attend the nineteenth annual tournainent of the Cleveland 
Gun Club Company. Shooting commences at 9 o'clock standard 
time. Targets, "2 cents in all money events. Averages will be 
taken , only from events 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. In order to compette 
for general average prizes shooters must compete through these 
events. In cash events, 15 targets, moneys will be divided 40, 30, 20 
and 10 per cent. Merchandise prizes are to be divided or to be 
shot off, accordingly as the wumers may agree upon. Average 
prizes awarded to high gutis. There is a long list of valuable 
merchandise prizes. Send for a programme. It contains the list. 
Shooters are invited to bring their friends. To reach the shooting 
park, take Willson avenue crosstown line to Kershaw street. For

Wallace, financial secretary. City Hall, Cleveland. 
The Hastings Gun Club, Hastings, Neb., has issued its pro- 
gramme for its tournament on Sept. 19-21, .$500 added. There are 
pine events each day, 15 and 20 targets alternately, $1..50 and $2 
entrance respectively, $15 added to 15-target events, $20 to 20-target

30, 25, 20, 15 and 10 per cent, will govern. This tournament is for 
amateurs only. Targets, 2 cents. 
Mr. L. H. Schortemeier, of New York, has been doing some ex- 
cellent work with the shotgun of late, his scores at the Interstate 
at Portland being the most recent. There he broke 163 out of 175 
the first day, and the same number on the second day, Leroy beat- 
ing him by 2 targets for the two days. Both avera.gcd be- 
tween 93 and 94 per cent. Schorty has now two high amateur 
averages to his credit, made at the recent Interstate tournainents 
at Providence and Portland- 
There v.'ill be a warm time at Atlantic City, N. J,, on Wednesday 
and Thursday of this week, Mr. J. A, R. Elliott and Mr. W. R. 
Crosby contesting for the E C cup on Wednesday. Mr. Charles 
A. Young contests with Mr. Elliott on Thursday for the cast 
iron medal. All arc acknowledged first-class performers, and if 
the contestants are in good forin the matches will be vcrj' closely 
contested. 
Mr. A. A. Barrett, secretary of the Brockton Gun Club, writes 
us that the next shoot of the Brockton Gun Club will be held 
on Aug. 26, and that Sept. 4 is fixed for the first shoot for the 
semi-aunual event — prize, a silver cup; May 30, 1900, for the 
second. This cup must be won three times by any club member 
in order to hold it perm.anently. This event is a handicap. 
Mr. W. F. Parker, well known to all ^ood trapshooters, itiet 
with a painful accident recently. While riding his wheel he got 
tangled with a truck in some way, as is a very easy matter in 
crowded streets, and injured his knee somewhat; but it is hard 
to down a good man, and we learn with pleasure that Mr. Parker 
will resume his old stride at the traps in a few days. 
Messrs. Sexton aitd Koohler's midsummer tournament, fixed to 
be held on Wednesday and Thursday of this week, at Leaven- 
worth, Kan,, has ten events each day. and each event is at 20 
targets, $2 entrance, $10 added. The Rose system, five moneys, 
governs the division of the moneys. 
The shooting at the Brooklyn Gun Club's grounds on Saturday 
last was sornething above the ordinary. Mr. Bernard Amend in 
particular distinguished himself, as the scores in another column 
will show. .John Wright's course of training teaches either the 
young idea or the old idea how to shoot. 
Capt. A. D. du Bray, representing Parker Brothers, well known 
as one of the most gentlemanly and skillful of trapshooters, con- 
templates taking a trip to the Pacific coast in the near future. 
The sportsmen of that region have a pleasure in store. 
Under date of Aug. 13., Mr. Jas, W. Sexton, Leavenworth, 
Kan., writes us as follows; "We will give a two days' shoot here 
on Aug. 23 and 24; ten events, 20 targets, $10 added to each 
event both days." 
Sept. 2 and the Climax club grounds, Plainfield, N. J,, were 
fi-xed upon for the ne>n contest of the Central New Jersey Trap- 
shooters' League. The Bruiiswick Gun Club won the last contest; 
score 107. 
The Phoenix Gtin Club team defeated the West Chester Gun dub 
team, of West Chester, Pa., on the grounds of the latter club by a 
score of 239 to 236, 25 targets per man, thirteen-men teams. 
The report of the Arkansas State shoot by Mr. Paul R. Litzke 
lias a scope and vividness well worthy of a perusal from beginning 
to end. It covers a great amount of detail. 
The Colt Gun Club, Hartford, Conn., has fixed upon Sept 23 
for its all-day shoot, L. PI. Bradley is the secretary. 
The Schuler Shooting Club, Pottstown, J^a^, will h.'Dld an all-day 
tournaxiient and clambake on Aug. 30.

The Brooklyn Gun CIub*s Tooth Toarnament. 
On Wednesday of last week the Brooklyn Gun Club most 
happily inaugurated its first annual tooth tom'nament, an invita- 
tion event, duly considered and happily devised, which, though 
run on lines which have been in vogue from time immemorial, was 
a success. It was entirely free from jealousy or heartburnings, 
and the victors received the applause of the members present with 
a feeling that their rejoicings were sincere and that well-earned 
success was appreciated at its true worth. 
There were eighteen members present, all in neat and natty 
costume, and each one feeling in his usual good form. There were 
no excuses made, and none necc.'isaiT to make, as was befitting the 
occasion. And yet the event was something far out ol the ordinary, 
and notwithstanding its rarity of purpose had in it much that 
Was worthy of the commendation and consideration of other people 
who shoot and who have a proper sense of appreciation. 
It was this way. For some weeks there seemed to be under- 
handed proceedings on the part of the members of the Brooklyn 
Gun Club, which in a way seemed to be directed secretly against 
their esteemed manager; for when two or more of them were talk- 
ing toegther at the club shoots or at other times when John 
Wright was near, they watched him, furtively and seemed to be 
talking of matters which would not excite his susjaicion, if it is 
possible that that amiable man could suspect any one. And all 
theie doings of secrecy and subterfuge seemed to be for the purpose 
of cloaking their designs, and designs they had, for the boys ■ had 
determined to give John Wright a shaking up such as he had not 
had in many years. Till the lightning struck, they wished to 
keep all knowledge of the impending danger from him. 
They had determined to give good John Wright a dinner„;tiipt 
like of which, froijt the point of good will and good fellowshipy^iaCd', 
perhaps a good dinner, never, had its like before. YS;.;:: 
So It came about, after much sub rosa effort, that John wattlSFv 
attend a tournament wherein he would he free from the card's ";^f 
,"• pulling traps and hustling squads and keeping scores and racliig ■ 
-, here and there to fix this thing and please that some one, and 
generally wear himself out in his efforts to give every one a good 
' time, and wherein he would have some attention paid to hirtiselfl 
So it was fixed upon that the tournament would take place at 
the Atlantic Hotel, Sheepshead Bay, L. I., and that Monsieur D. 
Olagner, the proprietor, would provide everj^thing required by the 
specifications of the pi-ogramme. This he did in a manner which 
proved him to be a crackerjack in his profession, for his doings 
were those of an artist, doing all that is specified in the pro- 
gramme and quite a bit more besides. As to the programme itself 
it was conducted without a protest or a kick, so that the division 
as to system must have been a success. A copy of it follows: 
First Annual Tooth Tournament of the Brooklyn Gun Club, 
W^ednesday, Aug. 16. Programme: 
First event: Olives, radishes and anchovies — Practice. 
Second event: Soup — bisque of lobster — Unknown angles. 
Third event: Fish — sea bass — equitable system — Potatoes and 
cucumbers added to the pot. 
Fourth event: Clams — pairs, thrown from magautrap. 
Fifth event: Chicken — live birds a la Van Sise; lettuce and 
tomatoes added. 
Sixth event : Green corn — one man up, expert rules. 
Seventh event: Ice cream — high-guns; spoons added. 
Eighth event: Watermelon — walking match. 
Consolation race: Coffee— known angles, handicap; sugar added. 
Ten toothpicks will be divided among the ten high teeth. 
John S. Wright, as a matter of course, had the seat of honor, 
and by his side sat Mr. Edward Banks, who presided over the 
dinner with great tact and bonhomie; and also there were "Uncle 
Jake" Pentz, Capt. J. A. H. Dressel, Dr. Jas. M. Creamer, Dr. 
A. A. Webber, Dr. W. L. Gardiner, B. Amend, J. P. Milliken, 
W. D. Vandenhore, C. von Lengerke, Harold B. Money. T. P. 
McGlinn, Thos. P. Baron, C. W. Floyd, J. J. Hallowell, 'W. H. 
Sanders, G. S. K. Remsen, Geo. B. Paterson, the secretary of the 
club, and B. Waters. 
Regrets were sent by Mr. J, S. S. Remsen, W. R. Hobart and 
Capt. A. W. Money. As the regrets of each were expressed to the 
club there were murmurs of regrets in turn, but when it came to 
the regrets of Capt. Money there was a demonstration which would 
have done the soul of the veteran war horse good could he have 
heard it. A resolution was made amid much applause that the 
company present deeply_ regretted the absence of Capt. Monev; 
the resolution was put in writing, and the temporary clerk was 
ordered to send the same to Capt. Money. 
At the coffee stage the prizes for high averages were awarded, 
first going to a sterling performer, ex-Coroner Joseph M. Creamer, 
with an average of 98, while J. P. Milliken was close up with the 
excellent average of 96. Waters was third, with Baron, each 
scoring .945, while C. '*A''. Floyd had to be content with 91, he 
having lost several points by re-entry on corn and chicken. 
Messrs. Dressel, Paterson and Webber were in the crackerjack 
class, each scoring ,901, their merit being in the order mentioned, 
while B. Amend was not in his usual good form and scored only 
.S8S, he having missed several clams. J. J. Hallowell was handi- 
capped on account of being a professional, and if he had not been 
a royal good fellow he probably would iiot have received any- 
thing; as it was, he was awarded .86, his score being injured by a 
fudge on chicken. Mr. Banks delivered the prizes to each of the 
proud winners, and with great felicity bestowed kind words of 
praise to each, recounting their points of excellence, all of which 
.was received most happily. The toothpick awarded to Dr. Ci'eamer 
was a most majestic affair in form and size, similar to a stove- 
lifter, with a red, white and blue ribbon tied in a bowknot across 
the handle. The others were but a trifle less in size, each ornately 
decorated with ribbon, and each a testimonial of good per- 
formance. 
But there was a pause while Mr. Banks explained that there was 
a booby prize, which was to be given to the man they all were 
friendly to and had their esteem and affection, etc., and then 
a beautiful, fine clock was set in front of John Wright, and he 
was told that the prize was his. John had many things to say, 
but somehow he couldn't say them, though he expressed hi.s 
thanks and appreciation of the doings of his good, friends. And 
then speeches were made, or rather talks were made in manner 
happy and friendly, and when the dinner ended it was well 
toward the time when evening ended also. And with the end of 
this first annual was rounded out on broader lines the good 
fellowship which obtains in the following of the Brooklyn Gun 
Club. 
Aubufni^Gun Club. 
AtfBtTKSr, Ktfci Alig, 19,^To-day was a perfect day for trap- 
shooting. It was rather warm, but this seemed to make no 
diflerence to the twenty-nine shooters who faced the traps and 
made the best scores of the season as yet. Adams and C. S. 
Rtmdall, of Portland; Hunnewell, Ashley. Burgess and Noble, 
of Auburn, broke 25 straight. C. S. Randall dropped but 2 out 
of 105, and Himnewell but 1 out of 75. In the 25-bird match 
for the gold badge thirteen men were tied, Hunnewell winning 
it in the shoot-off. 
Adams, Coleman, Arthur, Taylor, C. S. Randall and Gray, from 
the Portland Gun Club, were welcome visitors at the club 
grounds, and shot through all the events, making good scores.
