The , prOgrammt of the Cincinilati Gun Club's second annua! 
tiumameat can ba 6btainfed of Mr. G. W. Schuler, 626 Vine street, 
Cincinnati. The dates are Oct. 31 and Nov. 1, 2 and 3. It is open 
to all. There are added moneys as follows: Fifty dollars to the 
first high gun and $25 to the second high gun shooting through all 
the target events of the first and second day. Each day there are 
ten events at targets. On the third day there are four live-bird 
miss-and-out events and one event at 7 birds, two moneys; one at 
10 birds, three moneys. On this day the Cincinnati live-bird han- 
dicap, $500 purse guaranteed, is the main event. The conditions 
■ are 25 live birds, $25 entrance, birds extra; handicaps, 26 to Slvds. 
Regular entries for this event close on Oct. 23 and must be' ac- 
companied by $10 forfeit; the remainder^ must be paid before the 
iast man has shot at his second bird, f ost entry $35. Targets 2 
■cents, live birds 25 cents. 
The dififerent systems — Rose, equitable, Jack Rabbit and class 
shooting — are ail explained and illustrated in Fouest and Stream's 
:score book, thus affording a ready reference for cashiers and all 
others who wish to learn these systems. The manner in which 
the score sheets are ruled is illustrated in our advertising pages, 
Tthe heavy lines being distinctly advantageous in bad, dull ligfits, 
^hich are the lights most prevalent in the scorer's box. In addi- 
Sion. these books contain the rules of the Interstate Association 
governing target and live-bird shooting, the American Shooting 
Association rules governing the same, the Hurlingham rules, a 
form of club organization, and a sample of Forest and Stream 
trap score type, showing the scores of Messrs. Marshall and 
Grimm in the closing contest of the last Grand American Han- 
dicap. 
A truly remarkable score was that of Mr. Coburn in a recent 
match with Mr. Abbenseth, at Bergen N. J., and the wonder is 
how he could make it, for it is a truly difficult feat to shoot at 15 
pigeons and lose 14. But this is how the story is told: "There 
was lots of excitement at the live-pigeon match between Con- 
tractor C. W. Cobuni and Herman Abbenseth. The match was 
for $25 a side, each man to shoot at 15 birds. Abbenseth killed 4 
out of 15 and Coburn killed 1. Coburn really killed more birds 
than did Abbenseth, but as he shot all except 1 before they arose 
from the trap, the referee refused to allow them." The referee 
often is a bold, bad man in "refusing to allow them." 
Mr. Paul R. Litzke, our correspondent in the Southwest, in hi.s 
newsy contributions in the "Arkansas and the .South" column, 
writes u.^, luider the caption "Here and There," that the St. Loui.s 
and Kansas City shooters are considering the matter of a challenge 
trophy, to be contested for by Missouri shooters. This is an ad- 
mirable proposition. Its sterling good purpose is assured from the 
men who are endeavoring to establish it — Messrs. Chas. McL. 
Clark, of St. Louis, and Mr. Chris. Gottlieb, of Kansas City. 
Dr. A. A. Webber and Dr. Joseph Creamer, two of the Brook- 
lyn Gun Club's brightest pupils, wandered over to Dexter Park 
on Wednesday of last week as guests of the Erie Gtm Club, the 
event being the solving of equations between the g.un and live 
birds. In the main event, at 7 birds, Dr. Webber killed all, 
while Dr. Creamer had all but one. Although there were eleven 
others. Dr. Webber's score was the only perfect one, while that 
of Dr. Creamer was as good as the best after Webber's. 
Under dale of Sept. 18, Mr. H. Nelson, captain of the Pawling 
Rod and Gun Club, Pawling, N. Y., writes us as follows: "Owing 
to the Dewey parade, which comes on the 29th of this month 
(.date of our regular monthly meeting), 1 am requested to call 
our September shoot for Saturday, Sept. 23, at 1 P. M. Members' 
cup handicap, 50 targets, 50 cents entrance; cash handicap, open 
to all, 25 targets, 50 cents entrance; sweepstakes at option of con- 
testants." 
The Dunellen Gun Club and the Climax Gun Club, of Plain- 
field, will each organize a team of ten men, and these two teams 
^will contest against two teams, one organized by the Dunellen 
Gun Club, of Dunellen, the other by the Clima.K Gun Club, of ' 
Plainfield, N. J. Sept. ',',0 is the dale and the grounds of the 
^ew Brunswick Gun Club the place. This should be a most in- 
i^resting contest. 
The Philadelphia Trapsliooters' League will hold its next team 
match on Saturday of thi.s week on the grounds of the J''lorists' 
Gun CKtb, at Wissinoming, Pa. There are ten events on the pro- 
gramme of 10 and 15 targets, entrance 50 and 75 cents. Class 
shooting and three moneys if the enries are not twenty or over. 
In the unfinished races of Aug. 22, shot off at the Worcester 
Sportsmen's Club tournament, Sept. 12, Wheeler made the extraor- 
dinary good score of 98 out of 100; and the hardly less extraordi- 
nary score of 96 was made by Miskay. Wheeler's average in the 
twelve events of 240 targets was .970. 
On Thursday of this week the Cast Iron Stove pendant again 
comes into prominence, Mr. Charles Zwerlein, of Yardville, N, J., 
taking a try at it It will be Mr. J. A. R. Elliott's busy day, for 
on the grounds at Yardville Mr. Zwerlein, always formidable, is 
atill more formidable. 
Under date of Sept. 14, Mr. J. R. Malone, Baltimore, writes us: 
"Please claim dates in your paper for the sixth annual fall tour- 
nament of the Baltimore Shooting Association, Oct. 17, IS and 19, 
1899. Two days targets, one day live birds; $200 given in addeii 
money." • 
The dates of the Tyrone Gun Club's target tournament have been 
changed to one week later, Sept. 28 and 29, on acount of those 
dates having been previously fixed upon by the Johnstown Gun 
iClub and the Windbur Gun Club. . 
Quite a lot of interest centers at the Keystone League grounds, 
Holmesburg Junction, Philadelphia, on Tuesday of this week, 
where Messrs. J. A. R. Elliott and H. E. Buckwalter shoot at 100 
live birds for $200 a side. 
We are informed that work is i)rogressing finely on the grounds 
o£ the new Interstate Park Association. The plowing and seeding 
to grass and all the preparatoi-y work of surfacing arc progressing 
energetically. 
Mrs. M. F. Lindsley (Wanda) arrived in New York last week 
and will visit relatives in the East during some weeks. Mrs. 
Lindsley has been doing some very creditable shooting at the traps 
of late. 
We 1 earn that Mr. Edward Johnson, of Atlantic City, is recov- 
ering nicely from his serious accident and again will make it lively 
for any one who contests with him at the traps, in due time.

Chicago SportsmeQ^s Handicap Trophy. 
Chicago, 111., Sept. 15.— The initial shoot of the series of dia- 
mond medal contests for the Chicago sportsmen's handicap 
diamond trophy came off to-day^ and struck twelve the first thing. 
Twenty-four contestants and one visitor took part, and the handi- 
capping and the shooting together were so good that there was not 
time enough left in the whole afternoon to get to a finish, no 
less than fourteen out of (he twenty-four going into the 15 hole, 
thanks to summer birds and a short race. The weather was fine 
for the sport, and the birds all one could ask at this season, and 
it was at once apparent that this series of contests, devised by 
Manager Leffingwell, is destined to rival in popularity the two 
diamond (fonte.st series so successfully completed this summer. 
The open handicap idea seems a popular one here, and certainly 
under the -conditions of these shoots the contestants have plenty 
to interest them. The capital prize is a grand thing, a medal 
worth .$225, and the Watson high average medal is fit company 
for the biggest trophy. These and the liberal list below them 
make it well worth while taking the Illinois Central for Wat.son's 
fvery other Friday afternoon for the next six months. 
In the sViooting to-day Wi Icox, Roll, Odell, PIollj', Mussey, 
Leffingwell, Palmer, Shaw, Adams, Felton Parker, Steck, White 
and Amberg all went out with 15, and after that they simply shot till 
the tinkle of the cowbells called John Watson home to supper, 
and he put up the shutters of the park for the da)'. It was dis- 
covered that after an argument running up to 20 birds, Wilcox, 
White, Roll, Felton, Palmer and Holly were still strictly in it. Ali 
these agreed to sleeia on their arras until to-morrow afternoon at 
3 o'clock, at which time the shooting in the ties on 15 will be re- 
sumed and the winner of the trophy for the fir.st time be de- 
termined. 
The ties on 14 included Crow, Boa, * Von Lengerke Gillis 
Simonetti, Barto and Levy. With these also it went to 20 birds 
in the tie, and at that station Messrs. Crow and Von Lengerke 
agreed to divide, as it' seemed doubtful if either would miss again 
ithis week. In the 13 hole there was only one man. Young 
who took down the proceeds b)' himself and went honie before 
candle light. Elias shot out Rice in the 12 tie, 
Fred Gilbert was present and shot in with the boys, seeming 
tp find it easy to reach 15 frorn scratch. There were only seven 
f the 
ilcox 
ining 
-n, the tie till the shades of night canie, and will be on the 
ground to-horrow b.y sun-up. When I add that Col. Felton is old 
enough to be the grandfather of half of these Chicago shooters it 
will be evident what quality lies in the lake breezes of Chicago.

Eureka. 
Sept. IC— Fourteen members and one visitor, Mr. S B Tnrnble 
attended at Eureka Club shoot this afternoon. The day was not 
altogether favorable for target shooting, the light being not ol 
the best, and the \yind strong, so that the flights were unsteady, 
though most of the scores indicate that the boys found the 
curves capable of solution. In the trophy event the burly oresi- 
dent, Mr. A. W. Adams, won the Class A medal, A. C "Borrofl 
the Class B R. B. Mack the Class C, and W. H. Corn well the' 
Llass U. iVlrs. Carson made the nice score of 19 out of the 25 
in the medal shoot, and 15 out of 20 in one of the 20-bird 
contests which filled in the remainder of the day. Followine werp-

Piasa Third Annual. 
Ti?-^^ t^ird annual tournament of the Piasa Gun Club, of Alton 
lU., will be pulled off Sept. 28 and 29. F. C. Riehl secretary 
says that this is going to be one of the big shoots, and wants every, 
body to come. It is "everybody's shoot," the management states, 1 
pretty big proposition at first sight, but it is as easv for the Altol 
boys to itin a shoot for everybody as it is for anybody, so thefi 
you are. 1 wish to call especial attention to the fact that Altot 
IS the town which claims as a citizen Mr. H. R. Wills, one of th/ 
li?-?, and best fellows in the world, and I am advised tha' 
Mr. Wills has a sneaking idea that he could also hit targets A 
a matter of revenge I hope some one w ill prove to Mr. Wills tha. 
he cannot shoot targets a little bit, unless they are tacked on 
480 Caxton Building, Chicago, 111. 
Garfield Gun Club. 
Chicago, Sept. 16.— The appended scores were made on ou:j 
grounds to-day. The day was hot and a very strong southwes 
wind blew directly across the traps, making the flight of target 
very erratic and, the shooting consequently very difficult. Class J* 
trophy was won by Dr. Shaw on a score of 23; Class B trophi; 
«as vyon by Pollard on a score of 20. and Class C was won bi 
J^anning on a score of 19.

A Philadelphia physician who died the other day left a will 
•containing some queer provisions, including this one- "If my 
family never settled with Mr. Foster concerning the dog, I wish 
and want them to give to the boy Foster who was bit the sum of 
SlO, but if they have settled with the said Foster, then they are 
not to pay any money to said boy. This is in fulfillment of a 
promise I made to them when 1 was in trouble concerning the 
-dog."
