First Day, Thursday, March J. • 
According to schedule, the roof garden tournament, which is. 
being held in connection with the Sportsmen's show at Madison 
Square Garden, New York, was to begin at 10 o'clock, and 
promptly at the appointed time Manager Shaner announced to 
shooters present that everything was in readiness for the com- 
mencement of the second annual Sportsmen's tournament, and 
concluded by introducing Miss Mamie Hyland, of Tarrytown. N. 
Y., a miss of fourteen years, who was to fire the opening gun of 
the tournament. Undaunted by a cold, drenching rain, the little 
lady stepped promptly to the score, and succeeded in breaking 18 
cut of her first 25 targets. 
The programme consisted of a continuous match and the Asso- 
ciation championship, the latter a 100-target race. 
Regardless of the fact that there were not many shooters present, 
the first event was well patronized, as there were 101 separate at- 
tempts made by the contestants to group together a respectable 
number of consecutive breaks. This proved to be a very difficult 
undertaking, as is demonstrated by the scores. Ultimately Mr. R. 
O. Heikes won this event on 19, which will necessarily look in- 
significant to the reader, when the character of the principals is 
taken into consideration. Furthermore, it required seventeen dis- 
tinct efiorts on the part of the "Daddy of them All" to break 
even so many as this. His other runs of any consequence were 
13, 11 and 9, while in four of his trials he failed to score at all and 
on three other occasions he only broke one. 
Mr. W. R- Crosby was second in this event with 17, and he tried 
it seven times, this run being on his third attempt. His other 
runs were 9 and 8. , 
Dr. Knowlton did very well, for he faced the traps three times 
and broke 2, 13 and 16. Mr. Ed Rike essayed it twenty-one times, 
but only twice could he get into the double figures, and then he 
scored 10 and 15. 
Mr. Charley Budd could not negotiate them at all, as in twenty 
efforts he could only oroduce a run of 5 and 4, while in the other 
eighteen he scored 1 "eleven times, an* seven times he failed to 
break his first. 
Capt. Money was up six times; his best result was 10. 
Mr. J. S. Fanning, with nine attempts, succeeded in reaching 8 
once. 
Leroy scored a like number in five trials. 
H. A. Grant and C. R. Lewis were the other principals, and 
though they tried it a number of times neither could make any 
Tn the' championship race Heikes is also first with 91, and here 
he shot in slashing style, breaking 48 out of his- last 50. Crosby 
finished second with 92, and this must also be ranked among the 
classical performances, for in the gale that prevailed each target 
varied distinctly from the preceding one, so that it required su- 
perior skill and judgment on the part of the shooters to aggregate 
such scores. The other contestants are trailing far behind, as 
Fanning, with 82, is thhd, and Leroy, with 81, fourth. 
Miss Hyland scored 55 and thereby exceeded her father's total 
by 9 brealcs, as the latter has only 46. This is a case of the pupil 
excelling her instructor. 
A heavy wind blew from left to right, making the targets rise 
high, and rain falling betimes added to the discomfort. Shooting 
on the first day, on account of the bad weather, stopped between 
2 and 3 o'clock.

Second Day, Friday, March 2, 
Mr. Blandford, of Sing Sing, was one of the principals in the 
shoot to-day, and on his first trial he amassed a total of 28 
straight in the continuous match. This proved a number hard to 
duplicate but finally, after seven attempts, and after Manager 
Shaner had already announced that this would be the last trial of 
the day, the past-master of the target shooting art, Mr. Rolla 
O. Heikes, succeeded in tieing the score. This necessitated a 
sh'oot-ofT, and here the amateur readily succumbed before the 
world renowned expert, as the former lost his first target, so that 
a kill on the part of Heikes, which was immediately forthcoming, 
decided matters so far as this is concerned. There were seventy- 
five entries made in this event. The other good scores were; 
Fanning 26, Bud4 23 and U, Rpy 20, Heikes 18, Piercy 17, 
Heikes was very much in his element to-daj^ for in the champion- 
ship contest he is also to the fore with 95, Crosby occupying the 
same position as yesterday— second, with 93 broken. Fulford is- 
third, with 91, and Johnson 90. Rike and Tracy finished with 89^ 
while Le Roy. Daly, Jr., Fanning and Wood have 88. 
"The conditions of competition were more favorable, which ac- 
counts for the improved scores. For, though it was cloiidy and 
there were at times light snow flurries, the wind did not affect the 
flight of the targets so much. The scores:

Third Day, Saturday, March 3, 
Owing to there being a matinee at the Garden on Saturday after- 
noon, it was only possible to shoot until 1:30, so that to-day the 
Association championship match was the only event on the pro- 
g;ramme. 
The weather was again blustery and cold, so that it was nearly 
10:30 before the shooters began to put in an appearance, but from 
then until closing time matters were very active. Altogether there 
were twenty-two trials nipde in this race. Heikes again finished 
-first, but it lequired three efforts on his part before he could ac- 
complish this by breaking 02, which was a very creditable piece of 
shooting in the high wind that prevailed. Fulford, too, shot well, 
as he broke 90. However, this also required two trials on his 
part. Heikes scored 89 and Fanning 88 the first time up, while 
Crosby and Le Roy got 87. , . , , 
A contestant can enter any number of times, but it is, only the 
highest that counts for general average; but there is a medal given 
each day in this race to the one making the highest score, and this 
goes to the one accomplishing it. irrespective of how many trials 
it takes to achieve. 
Miss May Mackav, a young lady from Keene, N. H., graced the 
tournament with her presence, taking a turn at the trap, wd 
•considering the difficulties under which the competition took place 
her shooting was very good, especially after her first string of 
■25, when she became more accustomed to her surroundings. The

Mr. W. S. Stein, secretary of the Lincoln, Neb., Gun Club, is 
endeavoring to impress upon the shooters of the West and South 
the inducements which his club will offer at its third annual 
tournament, April 18 to 21. He is out with a card announcing 
there will he .$1,000 added money on this occasion. This liberality 
is certain to draw a large number of shooters to Lincoln. 
Mr. Dave Elliott is making extensive improvements at his new 
shooting park, in St. Louis, and ere long he expects to issue an 
invitation to the shooters of the Mound City to come and shoot 
over modernly equipped grounds, something they have never here- 
tofore been able to do in their own city. This will materially stimu- 
late the shooting interest in St. Louis. 
Elliott Brothers have recently given the shooters of Kansas City 
two medals to compete for— one for live birds and one for targets, 
the former costing $100 and the latter $50. The contests take place 
monthly, and are conducted on a handicap basis. In the pigeon 
race the' handicap consists of distance, while in the target event 
each shooter has a given number of birds added to his score. 
No contestant can win either of the medals more than once, and 
at the end of the year the twelve winners will meet and shoot off 
for final possession of the trophies. The live-bird contest consists 
of 25 birds, and the target race is 50 targets. In January W. S, 
Allen won the live-bird medal on a straight score from the 33yd. 
mark, and Walter Howe won the target medal. The February 
contest brought out L B. Porter and Newt. Beach, who tied for 
the live-bird medal on 24, but will settle the tie in some future 
contest. Alex Holmes won the target medal, scoring the total with 
an added handicap of 6 birds. These medals are creating a wide- 
spread interest. 
Fourth Day, Monday, March 5. 
The tournament was well patronized, and there was no lack of 
entries in both events. The tally sheet shows that there were 
154 trials in the continuous match, and tliis proved a spirited con- 
test. Fanning was one of the early ones on hand, and on his 
third trial he made a run of 26. This stood for quite a while, and 
then Crosby succeeded in scoring 28. Fanning, not to be outdone, 
shortlv after managed to exceed this by one break. This 29 looked 
like the limit, until well along toward the close, when Heikes on 
his ninth trial broke 34 before dropping one. The time for closing 
this event was very near at hand, but Fanning was given one more 
opportunity to exceed this, but the effort resulted in his breaking 
18. Heikes' best runs were 34, 19 and 17. He made eleven trials. 
Fanning made a number of nice runs as follows: 29, 28, 28, 26, 22, 
18 and 18. These were the result of seventeen efforts. Crosby es- 
sayed it sixteen times, and his good results were 28, 24, 23, 23, 14 
and 14. Rike, with ten trials, got a 15 and a 14. Hallowell was out 
fourteen times, but did not go beyond 14; his other good score was 
12. Capt. Money, with twenty trials, did not break into the double 
figures; the best he got was 8. T. C. Wright and Leroy reached 
11 and Budd 10. H. Daly, Norton, Weightman, Dr. Knowhon, 
Fulford, Gorham and Betti were among the participants. 
The interest in the championship race was equally as great, and 
the number of those who took part in this event was very gratify- 
ing to Manager Shaner. Crosby, who has been shooting so con- 
sistently all along, let out an extra link to-day, and amassed the 
great aggregate of 96 on his first trial. This proved ample, for 
though many efforts were made to excel it, no one succeeded in 
approaching it. Heikes got 93, and attempted it a second time, but 
withdrew after shooting 50 on this string. Ed Banks showed up 
very strong at the start, so that for a time it looked as though 
Crosbv's honors were in jeopardy, for he ran his first 43 straight, 
but after this misses came frequently, so that when he had fin- 
ished he could account for but 93. Thiis he shared second honors 
with Heikes ; Fanning, with 92, is fourth ; Fulford and Rike, 91, and 
Hallowell, 90. 
Good weather was the only thing to handicap the shooters, the 
light being good, with very little wind, so that the flights were 
very regular.

A few years ago the first effort in this direction was made, and' 
while the same has proven quite a success, the present tourna- 
ment is even more satisfactory. The present event is to con- 
tinue fifteen days, and as we go to press there have already been 
four days of shooting, and with each the interest apparently is in- 
creasing, so that in all probability many beneficial results will 
be accomplished by this tournament. The entries are numerous 
and representative, while there is no lack of spectators, notwith- 
standing that, so far the weather has been very adverse. 
Man.iger Elmer E. Shaner is conducting the tournament, and is 
assisted by a corps possessed of large experience in the respective 
positions they occupy. As a result there has not been a hitch of 
any kind. The targets are thrown from a magautrap riui by an 
tlectric niPlor, whicll ipsurps jj m'dof^ spee(j jn the flight of th? 
blue rocks. This makes the coonpetition absolutely fair to all, so 
that the often advanced hard-Suck story, that the targets were 
thrown much harder for some {particular shooter, who was not in 
his "usual good form" will not hold good here.

Boston Gun Clob. 
Wellington, Mass. — ^Thir^y shooters visited Wellington on the 
occasion of the Boston Gun Club's seventh prize competition, 
coupled with an invitation team race, in which Brockton, Haver- 
hill, Harvard and Boston participated. Portsmouth and Dover, 
N. H., also. South Framingham and Fitchburg, Mass., clubs 
sent regrets. 
While no high scores appeared during the afternoon, the events 
were nevertheless very much enjoyed by all. The team totals were 
low as a rule, and Brockton easily won by 9 targets. Silver 
souvenirs in the shape of match-safes were awarded the winning 
team. A light lunch, including hot coffee, did much to counteract 
the chilly temperature, and enhance the comfort of visitors. .Al- 
together the shoot was a successful meeting of trap enthusiasts, 
who follow their favorite hobby for the wholesome sport and ex- 
cellent practice contained in it, when arranged independently of 
moneyed sweeps. The scores follow:
