breeze was very light, and they were over 40 minutes 
sailing the first round, and before they had completed the 
second round the time Imiit for the four rounds, viz., two 
hours, had expired, and the flag was hauled down. The 
=weepsake therefore was postponed for a week.

They all got away ifiirly together, Snapper taking the 
lead. After rounding the bottom buoy Snapper carried 
a breeze right up the reach, while the others all lay be- 
calmed. When the breeze came again it was easterly, 
giving a close nip to fetch the buoy. Nana and Eft were 
first to benefit by the change of wind, and drew away 
from the others. Nana being second round the home 
mark and Eft third. During the second round Nana 
came up on Snapper, and during the last two rounds con- 
siderably decreased her lead, while Eft closed up on Nana, 
the other four cruisers being left some distance astern. 
Snapper won by 45 seconds from Nana and Eft was third. 
The Easter racing covered three days, and nine canoes 
took part. The races were sailed in very strong winds. 
In the first race, of April 13, the leading boats were 
Snark, Daphne and Eft, Nana following a buoy. In the 
.afternoon Eft was first. Nana second and Snapper third. 
Next day the first three in the morning were Eft. Nana 
and Snark; in the afternoon Nana, Snark and Gadfly. 
On Easter Monday Nana led, with Snaik, Eft and Snap- 
per finishing within the same minute with her. The 
wea'her put the canoes to a hard test and severs! were 
disabled. ' 
Old Times in the A. C* A. 
Canton, N. Y., i^.pril 11. — Com. W. G. MacKendrick, 
A. C. A., Toronto, Ont.— -Dear Sir: Your letter of the 
8th inst. is at hand. Yes, boating is looking up. More 
life in it here to-day than in midsummer for several 
years back. Can't say if I will get to the meet. It comes 
just before close of' busy season, when all orders are 
either overdue or in great haste, and I often feel I do not 
dare leave them with employees, so can't say. But I'd 
like to be there, you may be sure. I'm an old member of 
A. C. A. in more ways than one. One August morn in 
1880, as I walked over behind the boat house at Cro;by- 
Side, I found several men gathered around a bit of a 
fire. One was talking to the others. It was Bishop. He 
5aid: "We expect Mr. Rushton," and I answered, "Here." 
Then I was introduced to Longworth, Alden, Wulsin 
and others. A committee was named to nominate first 
officers. I was on that committee twenty years ago. Many 
■changes. Then I was a bachelor. Now I have a fourteen- 
year-old boy 4in. and i81bs. bigger than I am. Long- 
worth is over the great Divide. I haven't heard of Alden, 
Wulsin nor Heighway for years. I had a letter just the 
other day from Bishop — from West Palm Beach, Fla. 
Mrs. Bi.shop is dead. She was a charming lady, and 
Bishop has sold his Lake George property. Well, well, 
I'm yarning it. 
Oh, yes! One more I haven't heard from of late — 
Tyson. My regards to him if he is yet with you. 
And "So along," as Nessmuk used to say. 
Yours truly, 
J. H. Rushton. 
p. S.— You will notice my A. C. A. number is 37- Also 
that I am a charter member, and that there are but twen- 
ty-two charter members. I was No. 3, 4 or 5 to sign the 
constitution. How I got up to 37 I never knew. Until 
years had gone by I did not think much of it. Now i 
wish I was numbered rightly. R-

The energetic representative of the Chamberhn Cartridge & 
Target Company, Mr. Paul North, will manage the annual tourna- 
ment of th.» Inanimate Bird Shooting Association of England, at 
London, in June. This tournament will be held on the American 
plan as to its management, and this, we are informed, by the 
special request of the Prince of Wales. Last year the extraordi- 
nary number of 13,000 targets were thrown in five days. June 
5 to 10 inclusive last year, at the New York State shoot, Mr. 
North manager about 85,000 bluerocks were thrown, so that ther.' 
is a possibility that under Mr. North's management the record 
of the Association of England on the inanimate bird may b^ 
broken by a target or two. 
Mr. Ed O. Bower, secretary-treasurer of the West Virginia State 
Sportsmen's Association, writes us as follows; '•Referring to ouv 
announcement under 'Fixtures,' 1 beg to request that you kindly 
change it to read as follov.'s, the only change being the amount 
of added money shown: 'June 19 21.— Charleston, W. Va.— Fourth 
annual tournament of the West Virginia Siate Sportsmen's As- 
sociation, under auspices of Beechwood Rod and Gun Club: 
$500 added to open events, and valuable merchandise in State

There were six two-men teams in the trophy contest, held 
under the auspices of the Medicus Gun Club, at Interstate Park, 
Oueens, on Wednesday of last week. The New Utrecht team, 
Me':>=rs. Banks and Morfev. after a close contest, won the first 
contest, with a score of 164, each shooting at 10 targets. There 
was a stiff wind blowing, which made many kangaroo flights, and 
ccnsequently difficult shooting. ^ 
The Iowa Falls (Ta.) Gun Club has i.ssued the programme for it* 
fourth annua! amateur tournament at targets. May 31 and Juilt 
1 are the dates fixed upon. Shooting commences at 8 o clock. 
A magautrao will be used. Moneys divided 40. 30, 20 and 10

L Hezzelwood will be delivered at the grounds free of charge. 
There "are ten events each day at 10, 15, 20 and 25 targets, entrance 
of which is based on 10 cents per target.

The Interstate Park Association offers for open competition a* 
targets, conditions to be made known later, a sterling silver trophy, 
value $150, to be shot for at Interstate Park, Oueens, Borough of 
Oueens. Long Island. The first event will be on Mav 15. and a 
competition for it will take place thereafter each month. The cun 
becomes the property of the winner of four events: entrance, pncf 
of targets. Sweepstake shooting commences at 10:30. Cup event 
commences at 1 o'clock. 
" Mr. C. W. Feiffenspan. of Newark, -won the second open coin- 
petitinn for the Greater New York and vicinity trophy, and as it 
proved the last, for the trophy now becomes his persona! property, 
he having won it four times in succession, twice m open com- 
petition and twice in matches. This was truly a remarkab'e per- 
formance for no cup was ever with so stringent conditions 
governing competition for it, nor with such odds against any one 
shooter winning it with a straight record.
