Fott Smith Gun Club. 
Fort Smith, Ark., April 14. — The first regular shoot of the Fort 
Smith Gun Club took place at the new club grounds to-day. The 
wind blew briskly across the traps from left to right, causing the 
targets to dip and dodge like some swallow or jacksnipe. 
On the whole, the shooting was good, for everybody is a bit 
rusty and needs tuning up a little. Mrs. Judge Oglesby and her 
visitor, Miss Webber, of Texarkana, together with the Judge, were 
kind eonugh to come out and applaud the efforts of the shooters, 
though the ladies declined to take part in the game. 
Durden, who is shooting a great gait, made a run cf 23 out of 25, 
bis nearest competitor being Baptiste, 19; Leach, 18. 
Gov. Fishback has generously given the club permission to use 
a part of his pasture in the rear of his residence for grounds for the 
season, a privilege which is duly appreciated, as this is on the line 
of the electric cars, and only five minutes' ride from the heart of 
the city, making it very convenient for all who wish to attend. 
The tentii annual tournament of the Arkansas State Sportsmen's 
Association, of which W. A. Leach is the president, and Paul R. 
Litzke seeretary, will be run of! on these grounds on July 17, 18 
and 19, three days at targets; $300 added money; ten 15-bird events 
per day, Rose system division of purses; four moneys. 
It is expected that there will^ be forty shooters who will shoot 
through the programme on this occasion. Professionals will be 
barred from competition in the purses, but can shoot for targets 
and advertise their goods. 
All the business men in the city, who are interested in the coming 
of twenty-five to forty men who will remain for three or four days 
in the town, will have an opportunity to contribute toward the 
raising of the ?300, Whiph will be added to the purs©s at this 
lournament. 
It is known that there will be men from Missouri, Kansas, 
JS'ebraska, Texas, .Alabama and Mississippi at this shoot, as they 
have positively promised to come. 
A regular programme of the shoot will be issued some time in 
June, giving full details of the events and containing^ advertisements 
of all the leading business houses in the city, which will be sent to all 
prominent shooters in the United States, thus placing Fort Smith 
prominently before representative men of the country. 
Following are notes of the practice shoot to-day and the scores:, 
Charley Boyd generally breaks about 8 out of 25 targets. To-day 
he broke ?3 out of 25 with his brother's gvtn, and now he wants 
to trade Walter a house and lot for the gun. Walter says if he will 
throw in the gray horse he will consider the matter. 
.Kimmons is shooting a regular professional clip. Xllfs is Ills 
second attempt at the elusive saucers. It is really quite -unusual. 
How long will he keep it up? ' 
Judge Oglesby says he isn't going to shoot this year. Just 
watch him about tournament time and he will be there early and 
quit shooting when he runs out of money or it gets too dark to see. 
' Baptiste, Durden and Webber and Walter Boyd are doing some 
very consistent, hard shooting, and it is really refreshing to see the 
new contingent creep up and oust the old-titners from their ac- 
customed places at the front. 
Bob Hunt hasn't quite got his pump trained yet, but will soon 
be in the fiist flight, where he belongs. 
There will be shooting each Wednesday and Saturday the balance 
of the season, and all gentlemen are invited to attend and take 
part, whether they are members or not. Mr. Tom Norton is in 
charge of the shooting ground, and targets are thrown for 2 cents 
each. 
Saturdays will be medal days, and there will be three medals to 
shoot for every Saturday, viz.. Classes A, B and C medals, the 
shooters being classed according to skill. 
Class A medal will be donated by Mr. Norton, and will become 
the personal property of the shooter winning it the greatest 
number of times during the season. 
Classes B and C medals will be known as club medals, and will 
not become the property of any member, reverting- to the club at 
the end of the shooting season. 
None but club members are eligible iof these medals.

Haverhill Gun Club, 
Haverhill, Masa, Aptil 21. — 1 herewith inclose scores of the 
Haverhill Gun Club, made at our Patriots' Day arvnual, April 
19. We had a very good attendance,thirty--flve shooters participat- 
ing, but would no doubt have had quite a number more had the 
weather been more pleasant earlier in the day. The wind was 
quite strong, and made the flight of targets very erratic, but for 
all that there were some excellent scores made, notably those of 
Leroy, of Campello ; Baker, of Brockton ; Puck, of Boston ; Lam- 
bert, of Lynn, and George and Tuck, of the home club. There 
were several visitors from out-of-town. We were also favored by 
a large number of spectators from our own citj-; in fact, many 
more than at any previous shoot. Taking everything into con- 
sideration, trapshooting is still quite a lively corpse in this vicinity.

Palmer, Mass.— The Massachusetts Amateur Shooting Asso- 
ciation held the first of its series of shoots at Amherst, April 19.

All shooters not members of the Association who shoot sweeps 
May 30 will be, put in Class A. Members of the Association with 
a percentage of 80 per cent, or over will shoot in Class A. All

Andfoscoggin Gaa CItib. 
Lewiston, Me., April 21.— The Androscoggin Gun Club held 
its annual Fast Day shoot Thursday, the 19th, and also dedi- 
cated its new club house, which was erected this spring, to take 
the place of the old one, which was burned last August by tramps.' 
and it goes without saying that this was one of the poorest 
managed shoots in the history of the Androscoggin Gun Club- 
There was not one single thing provided for the entertainment of 
the visiting shooters, not even drinking water. After enduring 
thirst for the best part of the forenoon the visitors had to hire a 
boj; to go to a spring half a mile distant for water. 
Event No. 7 on the programme called for a "good dinner on 
the grounds," but when the dinner hour arrived there was not 
even a cracker on the grounds for the hungry shooters. While some 
of the members of the club went home for their "good dinner on 
the grounds," the visitors were compelled to employ a young 
roan to go to the city, two miles away, and get their dinners 
and bring them to the grounds, and in consequence of this the 
visiting shooters did not get anything to eat until 2 o'clock in the 
afternoon. 
The day was beautiful, and was all that could be desired for 
trapshooting. T-wenty-one shooters faced the traps in the mer- 
chandise match, in which there were fifteen prizes, as follows; 
French clock, silver cake basket, silver carving set, dress suit 
case, silk umbrella, fishing rod, shooting coat, sweater, silver 
pickle jar, pocket bill book, silver berry spoon, butter knife 
and sugar shell, umbrella, gold cuff buttons, loading set. 
The following are the scores in this match:

Sherbrooke Gun Club. 
Sherbrooke, p. Q., Canada. — The prospects for trapshooting in 
the Province of Quebec look bright this spring. Montreal had 
a tournament on Good Friday that was a record-breaker in point 
of attendance. Five from the Sherbrooke Club were there, and 
regard the usual pleasant time. The Westmcmd Club was there 
in strong force. Their grounds are just outside Montreal. They 
hold a shoot on May 24. Swanton, Vt., was represented by half 
a dozen good men. They are making plans for a big shoot m the 
near future, and will have the liberal support of the Canadians. 
Eight shooters from Ottawa did themselves proud. Two came 
fiom Montpelier, Vt. In all, some sixty guns took part. 
Sherbrooke has postponed its tournament from July 1, the usual 
dale, to the first week in September, and will probably make it 
a two days' affair. A very largely attended fair is held from Sept. 
3 to 8 in Sherbrooke, and extremely low rates are given by the 
railroads from Boston, north. The club hopes that this will be 
the means of bringing an extra large attendance from the Northern 
States. 
Canadian shooters are rejoicing in the fact that the Kynoch 
Company, of England, has decided to open a branch in Montreal. 
They had an opportunity of trying a very satisfactory load at 
the Montreal shoot, and orders were placed at prices which will 
insure considerable saving in the cost of practicing.

Sandwich Gun Club. 
Sandwich, Mass., April 19. — Our shoot on Patriots* Day was at- 
tended by six members. A terrific wind and rain storm kept away 
a number of shooters who had promised to attend. Some of the 
boys left their shooting eye at home, and failed to connect with 
the targets. However, we had our fun, and vowed would do better 
next time:
