STOCKWELL— HARDIN. 
This pair of shooters are very nnich alike in appearance jnd 
disposition, as- well as being evenly matched in shooting skill, 
and for the former reason as well as the latter they were selected 
to oppose each other. Each showed plenty of ability, and when 
the race was over neither had gained a decided advantage, as 
the race resulted in a tie o:i 48, a most capital score. Stockwell 
has one thing in which to pride himself, and that is his unfinished 
rvui of 45 straight. He missed his 3d and 5th birds, both ordinary, 
and then killed out straight. Some of his kills were very catchj', 
but he was a trifle slow, though he used his first to good ad- 
vantage and made manv one-barrel kills. Some of his best kills 
were his 11th, 15th, 27th, 28th and 44th. 
The strong point of Hardin's shooting was his time, which was 
superb. Like his opponent, his first barrel was very effective, but 
he too fell down on easy birds, as both his misses were incomers, 
though, aside from this, his work was clean cut. His best run 
was 35, and his good kills were his 14th, 19th, 25th, 28th, 34th, 
42d, 45th and 50th. The 33d was gathered close to the wire by the 
dog. 
Stockwell shot a Greener gun. Trap shells and Schultze powder. 
He beat his former score 3 birds. Hardin shot a Greener gun, 
Trap shells and Schultze powder. 
The birds in this race were very ordinary.

READ— COCKRELL. 
As a final for the day, J. C. Read and F. N. Cockrell were 
called. This brought about a close and interesting race, though 
neither man shot the score expected of him, and neither gained any 
advantage, as they tied on 43. 
Read shot a very good race, except that he occasionally threw 
away his second, though this had no material bearing on his 
score, and the losses charged to him in his second string were 
all the result of hard birds, for both of these principals drew 
some fast ones from time to time. The quality of the_ birds 
seemed to improve as ihe race progressed. This was a nip-and- 
tuck affair, though ultimately neither gained any advantage. 
Read's noteworthy kills were his 3d, 6th, 8th, 10th, 30th_, 32d, 
37th, 39th, 44th, 45th, 47th and 49th. He lost 2 dead out of 
bounds and had one sitter. He fell 2 short of his former total. 
Cockrell started oS strong, but gradually weakened. How- 
ever, as the race progressed the quality of the birds improved, and 
he was called on to make many good kills to score as many as he 
did. He too was a trifle slow, but otherwise his shooting was 
clean cut. His kill of the 15th was an extraordinary piece of 
shooting, as this was probably the best bird trapped during the 
da}'. His other good kills were his 2d, 7th, 9th, 10th, 15th, 16th, 
18th, 19th, 21st, 28th, 34th and 35th. His 48th came very near 
going, as it almost went to the wire. 
Cockrell too fell short of his former score 2 birds. 
Read shot a Smith gun, Trap shells and Schultze powder. 
Cockrell shot a Smith gun, Leader shells and Hazard powder.

This was the last race for the day. As the match is now more 
than half-completed, Omaha is 6 birds ahead. 
This 100 birds proved to be a good lot.

Third Day, Saturday, Jan. 27. 
D. ELLIOTT— LOOMIS. 
Dave Elliott and George Looniis were the seventh pair called in 
the contest, and it was in this race that the Kansas City shooters 
took renewed hope, for their man actually beat his opponent 3 
birds, and thereby cut down Omaha's lead to that number. Dave 
Elliott shot a remarkable race under most adverse conditions. He 
got a bad start, but soon pulled himself together and finished in 
slashing style. He lost his first and third birds, and followed 
this with a run of 20 straight, when he again failed to score, but 
this was his last slip, and he finished with a total of 47. Fortune 
favored him on his 44th, as this bird struck the wire, but remained 
inside. However, his gun hung on his third bird, and this was 
partially responsible for this miss. His total is a highly creditable 
one, and to achieve it required many good kills. Those deserving 
mentioning were his 6th, 9th, 10th, 14th, 25th, 28th, 34th, 35th, 
41st and 43d. 
Loomis, although beaten, sbot a good race, and his score of 44 
is a creditable one under the conditions. He did splendidly in 
his first string of 25, but in the last he experienced some hard 
kick, and also drew many hard birds. Two very hard-hit birds 
fell dead out of bounds. All his misses occurred on fast outgoing 
and twisting birds, and are therefore in a large measure excusable. 
His kill of the 35th was a marvelous piece of shooting and his 
other good ones were his 2d, 6th, 17th, 19th, 24th, 25th, 27th, 28th, 
43d, 44th, 45th and 49th. 
The conditions under which the sliooting is progressing is some- 
thing awful. The thermometer is down close to zero, and the 
wind is blowing a fierce gale diagonally across the grounds from 
left to right, and this is driving before it great clouds of sand, so 
that the reader can readily infer what a factor the elements are 
in the shooting. In face of all this, I look upon Dave Elliott's 
•score of 47 as a marvelous piece of shooting, far excelling the 
greater scores of yesterday. To properly appreciate the difficulties 
the shooter had to contend with one had to be present. In the 
former race Dave Elliott scored 46. Elliott shot a Winchester 
gun, Leader shells and Hazard powder. 
Loomis shot a Parker gun, Trap shells and Schultze powder. 
He was not a principal in the previous contest. 
C. D. Linderraan was referee. 
The birds were very hard, though there were a great many 
sitters.

BRAY— ALLEN. 
With but three birds behind when these two were called, the 
Kansas City were confident of yet winning, as Allen is one ot the 
Kaw town's steadiest shots, and they naturally look for him to 
make a great race, though they did not overlook the fact that 
Bray, too, would give a good account of himself. Nevertheless the 
Kansas City men were doomed to disappointment, for Allen showed Elliott 
very poor form, succeeding only indifferently, and thereby missed 
an opportunity to put his team in the lead, for Bray did little 
better than Allen, though he beat his man 1 bird. Bray finished 
with 41, 6 birds less than in the former contest, though of course 
the conditions were much harder. Most of his losses were the 
result of hard birds. In one or two instances he let apparently 
easy ones fool him. His good kills were his 14th, 15th, 21st, 33d', 
34th, 35th and 39th. 
Allen could only account for 40, a surprisingly low score for so 
good a shot as he has often demonstrated himself to be. He was 
in poor form, and also used poor judgment, and was clearly not 
at himself. On one occasion, from the 9th to 12th round, he 
bunched no less than three misses. He lost his 11th by per- 
mitting it to fiy away, after the referee liad declared it on the 
wing, but he failed to hear this, and no birded it. But this had 
no bearing on the result, for he got another and missed it. How- 
ever, this was ruled out, and had he killed it he could not have 
had it scored. 
Both of these principals got their share of hard birds, and Allen's 
best kills were his 5th, 7th, 15th, 17th, 18th, 29th, 30th, 34th, 35th 
and 46.

GOTTLIEB— CRABILL. 
What little prospects of winning the Kansas City men had were 
blighted by the result of the ninth race, for here again the Kansas 
City shooter shat away below his gait. 
Gottlieb's shooting was another one of the surprises, for it is 
rarely indeed that he makes so poor a score; but right-quarterers 
are his Jonah, and as these predominated it is easy to understand 
why his total is small. Going down wind, it was had to get far 
enough ahead, and this is what he could not master successfully, 
though of course he had to kill not a few good ones to score as 
many as he did. His best of these were his 3d, 9th, 13th, 16th, 25th, 
27th, 32d and 44th. 
Crabill, on the other hand, showed plenty of nerve and ability, 
and outshot his rival from every standpoint and thereby clinched 
the race for his team, for when he had disposed of his opponent his 
team was 7 birds to the good, a margin that was practically im- 
possible to overcome by the result of the final race. His score 
of 44 on the class of birds that was their portion is good shoot- 
ing, and it required many sensational kills to bring this about. 
Furthermore, he had the bad luck to have his 36th bird chased 
out of bounds by careless work of the dog. 
His brilliant kills were his 1st, 4th, 17th, 19th, 25th, 27th, 31st, 
33d, 39th, 41st and 43d. 
Gottlieb shot a Smith gun, Trap shells and Schultze powder. 
Crabill shot a Greener gun, Trap shells and Schultze powder.

PARMELEE— J. A. R. ELLIOTT. 
Frank Parmelee and Jim Elliott were held in reserve by their 
respective teams. In case that the race was very close they were 
to furnish the battle royal. However, this was not necessary, 
for as mentioned in the previous xace, Omaha team was now 7 
birds to the good. 
In the meantime, though, Parmelee and Elliott had agreed to 
shoot a 100-bird race for $200 a side, the first 50 birds to count 
as their score in the team race, and the total in the 100 to decide 
the ownership of the purse. 
This match began at 1:30 under conditions as described above, 
and proved to be a hignly interesting contest, not from any 
unusual display of skill but through the closeness of the score. 
Jim Elliott started oil, as is his custom by missing his first bird, 
a floater from No. 5 trap, Parmelee having preceded him with a 
kill, but tlris advantage was of very short duration, as he im- 
mediately followed this by two misses. Both of the contestants 
shot like novices at the start, for after each had shot at 15 birds 
Parmelee had scored 10 and Elliott 11, At the end of the first 25 
the score was Parmelee 18, Elliott 19. 
After this, however, they got down to business and did some very 
clean shooting, so that when 50 birds had been shot they were tied 
with 41, Parmelee having scored 23 in this string and Elliott 22. 
Elliott's 45th hit the wire, but bounced over. 
Elliott now made a run of 29, from his 45th to his 75th, finishing 
this string with 24 and thereby gaining a lead of 2, while at one 
time he was 3 ahead. 
Parmelee now took a turn at consecutive scoring and made a 
run of 25, thus reducing his opponent's lead to 1, but he missed 
his 94th and 95th, and Elliott was again 3 ahead. But the most 
sensational part of the match was yet to transpire, for when there 
were only three more birds to shoot Elliott proceeded to miss the 
first two of these, and as Parmelee killed all of his — the last one 
being saved by the wire — it became necessaiy for Elliott to kill 
his last one. 
Fortunately this was not so hard as the two previous ones, 
and though he missed it clean with the first, he killed it with the 
second, and won the match by 1 bird on a score of 87 to 86. 
Luck was no factor in this match, and the best man won. 
However, had either shot up to his standard in the first 25 it would 
have been an easjr win, for the opportunity for it was there. 
These two principals have not shot four matches here in Omaha 
in recent years, and this is the first one Elliott has won. They 
have agreed to shoot a 300-bird race in the East after the handi- 
cap at Carteret, if the use of the grounds can be obtained. 
The birds in this race were selected, and fast ones predominated, 
so that remarkable kills were the order, 
Mr, G. M. Walden of Kansas City, was referee. 
Elliott shot a Winchester gun. Leader shells and Hazard powder. 
Parmelee shot a Parker hammer gun, Trap shells and Schultze, 
powder.

Brooklyn, Jan. 24. — A number of John Wright's shotgun stu- 
dents met at his trapshooting studio to-day to get a line on what 
they could do on singles and doubles, to compare their pace with 
what will be expected in the contest for the championship of 
Greater New York and vicinity, soon forthcoming. The most 
exacting shooter for hard conditions would have been more than 
satisfied. The cold raw wind blew strong and steady; there was a 
dull, shadowy hght; the expert traps were at their highest tension, 
and the flights of the targets were delirious. They sailed skyward, 
straightaway, curvilinear— every way, in line that Euclid never 
dreamed of, as the following scores will show:
