FOREST AND STREAM. 
WESTERN TRAPS, 
^Waterloo Annual Shoot. 
Chicago, 111.. July 7.— The annual tournament of the Waterloo 
Gun Club, of Iowa, June 27 and 28, was a very nice httle altair. 
The attendance of shooters fell off a little bit the second day, as 
usual, but a good number shot through the programme of both 
days. The weather was very fine, and everything was handsomely 
conducted. On the first day Weitnauer was high average, Steege 
only 1 bird back of him, the two having broken 1S4 and 183 re- 
spectively. There were fourteen events, 15 targets each, the first 
day; $80 added money on the two days. The second day's iiro- 
gramme was the same as the first, excepting that in the afternoon 
there was a team shoot, two-men teams, at 50 targets. The high 
average on two days came out a close thing between Lmell, of 
Marshalltown, and Steege, of Waterloo, the former winnmg by 1 
bird, 361 to 360. The score in the team shoot was as below: 
Linell and Weitnauer 46, Lane and Howell 39, Steege and 
Sheldon 46, Rossback and Kehm 40. 
The visitors were delighted with the treatment they received at 
the hands of the Waterloo Gun Club, and all declared their in- 
tentions to come again the first opportunity. The following are 
the programme scores of the two days:

Appletoa Tournament. 
Appleton Gun Club, of Appleton, Wis., will hold a tournament 
ojien to all comers, July 15 and 16. The Appleton boys do not do 
things by halves, and this is well worth putting on the slate. 
Some of the Indians. 
Yesterday a husky delegation of trapshooters — and by the Way, as 
strong a representation of shooting talent as one could well find 
standing in four pairs of shoes — called on this office of the Forest 
AND .Stream. These were Messrs. Charles Budd, Fred Gilbert, H. 
C. Hirschey and Tom Marshall. The boys were just in from Free- 
port shoot, and they said it was hotter than never mind what at 
Freeport. Charley Budd is talking of going to Moberly, Mo., for 
the shoot there, and is sure that it can't be any hotter there than 
it was in northern Illinois this week. Fred Gilbert was suffering 
from a bad attack of hoarseness, being hardly able to make himself 
understood. This, however, is probably nothing serious. All 
the boys continue to make a big talk about the com.ing Indian 
shoot at Okoboji, la., the last week in August. There will be two 
weeks' shooting at this point, the big Indian shoot being pre- 
ceded by the amateur shoot. Programm.es will be out duly. The 
Indian shoot is going to be a pleasant affair sociallv. as well as 
shootingly, and there will be a great many shooters and shooters' 
families present. All M^estern devotees of the trap should surely 
make their plans to include this tournament. 
Dupont Cup, 
The Barto-Graham match for the Dupont trophy is set for July 
19, at Watson's. 
Teams at Chicago. 
In a live-bird team shooting contest at Watson's Park yesterday, 
July 6, H. Odell and Dick Dwyer defeated O. Von Lengerke 
and Henry Levi. The contest was at 25 live pigeons per "man, 
at 30yds. rise, the latter team being allowed 4 added birds to the 
score. The score:

Chicago Gun CIub.5 
Chicago, 111., July 7.— This was anything but an ideal' day to 
shoot targets, the wind blowing a gale from back of the trap, so 
that sometimes the targets were broken at the edge of the grass. 
The light was bad, and high scores were impossible. 
At a meeting of the Eureka Gun Club last week the name was 
changed to the Chicago Gun Club. It is the bad weather and 
not the change in name that accounts for the small attendance

Garfield Gun Club 
Chicago, 111.- July 5.— The appended scores were made on our 
grounds, Garfield Gun Club, July 4, on the occasion of our eighth 
annual picnic and club tournament. The club cup value $75 
was won by T. P. Hicks, after shooting out F. S. Baird and A VV 
J<ehrman, who tied him m the cup event. 
The pigeons were an extraordinarily fast lot, owing' to the strong- 
south wind, which blew directly across the traps. 
Shooting began about 9 o'clock, and continued until 7'30 
. About 700 pigeons were shot and besides the magautrap was 
in operation all day. About 300 member.s and visitors snent ihp. 
day on the grounds. An elegant dinner was served by the ladies 
/o"r an club provided an abundance of ice cream and lemonade 
J\fot a single incident pp pccident pCfUrred during thp i^y to 
mar the pleasure of the day, and all went home happy and, satisfied 
for once with all the shooting they wanted.

Jul.v 7. — The appended scores were made on our grounds to- 
day on the occasion of our tenth trophy shoot. Class A medal 
was won, by R. Kuss on a score of 23; Class B by W. P. Northcott, 
also on a score of 23, and Class C by J. D. Pollard on 21. 
The shooting was difficult on account of a strong and gusty 
southwest wind, making tbe targets beat down very quickly; and 
the heat was intense, making it altogether an unpleasant day to 
shoot. 
The attendance was small on account of our big shoot on July 
4, many of the regular attendants having their shooting appetite

Wolf or Lamb— Which? 
New York, June 2S.— Editor Forest and Stream: In reading your 
comments on the handicapping at Interstate Park, I think the 
wise Cadi was very near right, and as they did not go 2oyds. back 
It showed that if they had done as agreed things might have been 
different. But I must differ from the learned Cadi wherein he 
says It matters not who skins the lamb, after the lamb is skinned— 
wolf, expert or amateur. 
say to the learned Cadi that as I am well versed on 
that subject, I say that the amateurs in this vicinity have a de- 
cided opinion on who shall skin them, and as a proof of my opin- 
ion i have seen almost as manv lambs at one of our little club 
shoots as ever at Interstate Park during their tournament. 
I will agree with the learned Cadi that the lambs have, I think, 
learned after _ so _ many thousand times it has been verified to
