The following excerpts are taken from the Paris edition of the 
New York Herald, concerning the Grand Prix de I'Exposition, 
which began on June 25 and ended on June 27: , 
The pigeon shooting season in Paris is now at its zenith, for, 
punctually on the stroke of midday at the Cercle du Bois de Bou- 
logne yesterday commenced the competition for the Grand Prix 
de I'Exposition Universelle de 1900, an international contest at 27 
meter."!, with 20,000 francs to the winner, the 10 louis entry being 
shared by the second, third and fourth. The conditioins were 
[hat 2 pigeons be shot at yesterday, 2 to-day and the ties to be 
deeded to-morrow; 2 misses and out. 
Now 10 louis, even to pigeon shots, is at times a big svitn, so 
instead of having 166 shooters, as on Tuesday last, in the Grand 
Prix du Centcnaire, when only a louis was demanded, there were 
but fifty-two marksmen who iaced the traps on the present occa- 
sion. Eighty-five had entered, but those who withdrew were prob- 
ably good judges, as a strong southwesterly wind was blowing across 
the ground, and it was ari open secret that some rattling birds 
had been kept for the event. 
After the morning's showers the grounds looked their best — 
flowers cverj'where. one of the prettiest "tirs" in the world. There 
was no sun, so shooters had a nice light in their favor, though 
with the breeze the birds had a little the advantage. 
Name after name was called, and when 2 pigeons each had 
lieen shot out of the tifty-two only four had double zeros placed 
against their names, these being Messrs. Keyser Denfert-Rocher- 
cau, Basile, Verestchagine and the Hon. Fitzroy Erskine. 
Those with 1 miss each were Baron A. De Tavernost, Messrs, 
.\. J. Roberts, Comte Verestchagine. Marcel Laurent, Robert 
(jourgaud, Verdavaine, A, Poizat, L. De Mendeville, De Amezaga, 
Alouion, Leon Thome, S. Merlin, D. A. Ifpson, Paul Gotterot, 
Baron de Heeckeren, Leger, Murphy, Comtc Dankelmann and 
Comte De Chapelle. 
The following accounted, on the other hand, for both birds: 
Messrs. Spalding, L. Drevon, J. Banwell, R. Moncorge, Marcel 
Avril, Scribot, C'. Robinson, D. Mackintosh, J. Demonts, Maurice 
Faure, Oreste Galetti, J. Pederzoli, V\''adsworth Rogers, Baron De 
Dorlodot, Leon De Lvmden, Hans Marsch, H. Tournu, Tod Sloan, 
C. Bethune, Paul Lunden, Maurice Godillot, Marquis De Villa- 
viciosa^ Comte Louis D'PIavrincourt, Von Pape, Baron De Leo- 
nino, Bucquet, De Lostalot, Comte Clary and A. Ginot. 
How is that for an international crowd? 
.\mong the newcomers were Mr. Banwell. one of England's 
crack shots, ami Tod S'oan. the American jookev, who, although 
having had a little practice in sweepstakes during the past few 
days, made his first appearance in France in a "classic event." 
He grassed both his biras m good sty^e. 
M. De Lostaiot, in the second round, had wonderful luok, his 
hard hit "'bizet" going clean out of bounds, turning with the 
wind and being driven by the wind toward the meniuers stand, 
where it fell dead just ins:de the rails. 
Comte Dankelmann, on the other hand, was extremely unfor- 
tunate, his pigeon, a marvelous bird, falling dead a few feet on 
the further side of the fence. 
Taken all in all, it was, from a sporting point of view, an unex- 
citing opening, and much greater interest centered in the 5-louis 
sweepstake, w.th exquisite little "objets d'art," offered by the com- 
mittee, added, which followed, and which resulted as follows: 
1. mm;. M. A. Poizat, 22 meters, 19 out of 19. 
2. Comte Clary, 26Vi. meters, and M. Leon Thome, 24^ meters, 
tied, each killing 18 out of 19. 
/\t midday to-day the Grand Prix will be continued, two more 
pigeons having to be .shot at. 1 he public will be admitted on 
payment of 5 francs to the unreserved inclosure, so here is a chance 
for visitors to see one of the prettiest pigeon grounds in the 
world and some of the world's best shots at work. 
_ The second day's, shooting in connection with the Grand Prix 
de I'Exposition at the Cercle du Bois de Boulogne yesterday was 
by no means fertile in incident — in fact, it was about the most 
uninteresting '"session" — as far as the event in question is con- 
cerned — that one could imagine. 
The wind was lighter and slightly more northerly than on the 
previous afternoon, but the light was brighter. The birds, too, 
were mixed, and in the initial roimd, the third of the contest, there 
were 18 successive' kills before Baron De Dorlodot missed, and 
this opened a short sequencf of zeros, as Tod Sloan shortly after- 
ward was beaten by a nice bird from the extreme left, the Mar- 
quis De Villav'ciosa by a high flyer from No. 4, Comte Louis 
D'Havrincourt by a smart pigeon from No. 1, who just caught the 
breeze; M. Merlin, who .iccejited a sitter, who rose like a rocket, 
and Baron Leonino, who was clean beaten by a fast, dark, snip5- 
"biset." As this was M. Merlin's second miss he had to retire. 
In the next essay Messrs. Poizat, Thome and Upson all failed 
to kill and retired with "double zero" honors. All others re- 
maining in killed, but Mr. Mackintosh, the Australian crack, gave 
his followers a bit of a fright as he missed a thorough "twister" 
with his first barrel and waited. It was perhaps but a second, 
but hearts beat high I Bang went the second barrel and the bird, 
high in the air, fell stone dead, far within bounds. "What's the 
matter v,'ilh you?" said the Australian as he quietly put his gun 
in the rack and was greeted with "Bravo, Mack!" Mr. Mackin- 
tosh does not like applause. It was a rare good kill, however, and 
few present could have stepped the pigeon in question. 
Another good shot worth recording which was made , in this 
round was by. Mr. Wad^worth Rogers, who with his first barrel 
brought down a remarkably "snipy," fast-flying bird. Tod Sloan, 
by the way; grassed his pigeon in the fourth round in excellent 
style, for it was not an easy bird. 
Of those who on the previous afternoon had one zero marked 
against their names, the following did not answer the roll call 
yesterday: Messrs. J H. Roberts, Comte Verestchagine, Marcel 
Laurent, Mouton, Edgar Murphy and Comte De La Chapelle. 
Those who had kihed all their 4 b.rds at the close of the shoot- 
ing were Messrs. A. G. Spalding, L. Drevon, J. Banwell, Comte 
Clary, Messrs. R. Moncorge, Marcel Avril, Scribot, De Bons, C. 
Ivobinscn, ' D. Mackintosh, J. Demonts, Maurice Faure, Oreste 
(ialetti; J. Pederlozi, Wadsworth Rogers, Leon De Lunden, Hans 
Marsch, Henri Journu, C. Bethune, Paul De Lunden; Maurice 
Godillot. Von Pape, Bucquet and De Lostaiot. 
The ;!-bird men, with only "one life," as they say in po.ol, are: 
Baron A. Dc Tavernost, Messrs. Robert Gourgaud, Verdavainne, 
Barr n De" Dorlodot, Messrs. L. De Mendeville, De Amezaga, Tod 
Slc:m. Mai'Quis De Villaviciosa, Comtc Louis D'Havrincourt, Paul 
Goi'>'.rot, Baron De Heeckeren, Comte Dankelmann and M, A. 
Ginofc 
At the >prese«nt moment it would be hard to predict the winner, 
as so much depends upon luck and the weather. The Anglo-Saxon 
division is, however, shooting steadily and Messrs. Banwell, Spald- 
ing,. C. Robinson, D. Mackintosh and Wadsworth Rogers have a 
great chance of being there or thereabouts at the finish. 
According to present scores it will be a long day to-day, but 
who knows but what Baron Govu-gaud, the president of the club, 
has not kept the best birds until the last? 
In any case the sport is sure to prove exciting, and as the admis- 
sion to the ground for this day only is but 5 francs, there should 
be a good attendance at the finish. 
A great pool of 5 louis, with a souvenir given by the club, 1 
pigeon handicap, was shot for in the Bois de Boulogne yesterday 
and was won by Mr. Wadsworth Rogers. 231^ meters, with 18, 
consecutive kills. M. Maurice Godillot, 25% meters, was second 
with 17 out of IS, while Comte Georges de Montesquiou, 26i.i 
nieters, and the Chevalier R. De Knyff, 22 meters, each with 12 
out of 13, divided the third monuy. 
deed, for Baron B. De Tavernost, A. Spalding, De Amezaga, Paul 
Gotterot, R. Moncorg6, Marcel Avril and Maurice Goddlot, who 
all missed. In the next two rounds Messrs. Oreste Galetti, A, Ue. 
Dorlodot, L. De Mendeville, Tod Sloan, Baron De Heeckeren, 
Count Dankelmann, Robert Gourgaud, Wadsworth Rogers, De- 
monts and Comte Clary came tb grief, the latter having exceed- 
ingly bad luck with a hard-hrt bird. Messrs. Mackintosh, Robin- 
son, Banwell, Bethune, the two Lundens, and, above all, Maurice 
Faure, on the other hand, killed in grand form, the latter s sec- 
ond barrel "coups" being remarkable. 
In the ninth round Messrs. Drevon, Scribot De Bons, Hans 
Marsch and Bucquet failed, and then real interest in the coritest 
began, for when the tenth round began only nine competitors 
were left in, these being Messrs. Banwell, England; C. Robinson, 
California; D. Mackintosh, Australia; Maurice Faure and C. 
Bethune, France; Pederzoli, Italy; Leon ,and Paul De Lunden, 
Belgium, and Von Pape, Germany. And of these nine Herr Von 
Pape alone obtained the uncoveted zero. 
In the eleventh round all killed, but in the twelfth M. Paul 
Lunden missed a low tlyer from the extreme left. In the thir- 
teenth Mr. Banwell, the Hcndon crack shot, was beaten by a not 
too difficult pigeon. The remainder all accounted for their birds 
and shot faultlessly through the fourteenth round. 
M. Bethune, one of the best shots in the north of France, fell 
out in the fifteenth round. He had .shot in excellent form through- 
out, rarely relying on his second barrel, but was nonpkissed by a 
good "biset" sent up from No. 2. 
At the sixteenth essay Signor J. Pederzoli's chance was extin- 
guished by a rattling bn-d from No. 2 trap proving his master. 
But a quartette was now left in — Messrs. Robinson, Mackintosh, 
Maurice Faure and Leon Lunden — ^America, Au.stralia, France and 
Belgium. 
"Why not divide the whole stake?" said Mr. Robinson, the prac- 
tical Californian. "If Mackintosh is willing," said the others. 
Naturally Mr. Mackintosh, just like Barkis of old, was willing 
and the nice little sume of 30,400 francs, or, with percentages de- 
ducted, 29,360 francs, was shared by the quartette, each receiving 
7,340 francs. 
All interest in the contest was now over, for the shooting was 
merely for places — a verv barren honor, especially a? even the 
medals offered by the Exposition committee to those who had 
killed 2 and 4 birds were not forthcoming. "They are not finished 
yet," said Baron Gourgaud, the ever amiable president, to the 
many who claimed then; "nor," said he, "is the Exposition, Per- 
haps we shall have a double event. Two finishes I" 
The shooting, however, continued, but it was evident that there 
had been a break, for both Messrs. Robinson and Mackintosh 
missed their nineteenth "bisets," while Messrs. Maurice Faure 
and Leon Lunden both killed, and a round later M. Faure had to 
cry "content," leaving to M. Lunden the honor of winning the 
Exhibition prize of 1900. ' 
It is unnecessary to state that there were the usual rejoicings— 
champa.gne galore! 
In a handicap sweepstakes of 5 louis each, with charming little 
objets d'art offered by the club, the following were successful: 
1. M. Tournu, 29ya meters. 10 out of 10. 2. M. Verdavainne, 24^^ 
nieters", 9 out of 10. 3. M. L. Beharelle, 26i/2 meters, 8 out of 9. 
Thus ends the international meeting of 1900. It has been an out 
and out success, thanks to the capital management. 
Boston Shooting Association Tournament. 
The following circular letter contains much that is novel, and 
therefore much that is interesting to the shooters at large: 
Boston, June .30. — To the Trapshooters of Massachusetts: The 
Boston Shooting Association will give a tournainent, open to all 
shooters in New England, at its grounds at Wellington, iVlass., on 
Wednesday, Au.g. 1, 1900. We appreciate the fact that large tour- 
naments have been scarce in Massachusetts during the past five 
years. We believe that the reason is that amatevirs who shoot from 
70 to 80 per cent, are unwilling to compete in sweeps against ex- 
V)er1s who can break 90 per cent, or more, and we recognize the 
correctness of the amateurs' position. 
A glance at the programme will show you that this shoot is in- 
tended mainl}^ for shooters who can break 80 per cent, or less. 
Every other event is open only to amateurs whose records 
as fixed by the management are 80 per cent, or less. Alter- 
nate events are open to all, but with a distance handicap rang- 
ing from 20yds. to 16yds., so that an amateur will also stand 
an equal chance with the experts if he desires to enter the open 
events: but he need not enter them at all if he does not wish and 
may confine himself to the amateur events only, or shoot for the 
price of targets. No. 10 is a two-man team race, open only to 
teams of the following clubs: Leominster, Fitchburg, South 
Framingham and a'l the clubs who arc members of the Massa- 
chusetts Amateur Shooting Association. 
Any of the above named clubs may enter as many teams as they 
wish, but no one shall shoot on more than one team. 
A prize of $7 will be given to the winning team and $5 to the 
second, in addition to the usual division of the sweep money. 
Five dollars will be given to the amateur making the highest 
average in the amateur events, excluding the team race, and ?3 to 
the second. Five dollars will be given to the professional or paid 
expert making the highest average in the open events. Five dol- 
lars wili be given to the expert amateur or amateur making the 
highest average in the open events and $3 to the second. 
No. 11 is for the championship of Massachusetts in Class C, 
open only to amateurs who are classed SO per cent, or below. A 
suitable trophy will be given the winner. In the open events all 
professionals and paid agents stand at 20yds., expert amateurs at 
18yds. and amateurs at 16yds. The term expert amateur" at this 
shoot means all amateurs who regularly break more than 80 per 
cent. 
Moneys in the open events divided five high guns if more than 
twelve entries, four high guns on less than twelve entries, on the 
usual high gun percentages. Moneys in the amateur events di- 
vided 40, 30, 20 and 10. class shooting. 
Dinner will be served on the grounds. Targets included in en- 
trance at IV2 cents. Any shooter may send to the address below 
and get his classification before the shoot, so that he may know 
what events arc open to him. The rating given by the manage- 
ment is final. 
We cordially invite you all to come and make th-s handicap tour- 
nament a success. If it proves to be such we will guarantee that 
it shall become an annual event, so that we can hold at least one 
tournament a year in Massachusetts, where professionals, expert 
amateurs and amateurs may meet on an equal footing. Any fur- 
ther information will be gladly given by applying to Herljert M. 
Federhen, Jr.. President of the Boston Shooting Association, 23 
Court street, Boston, Mass. 
The pigeon shooting Grand Prix de rExpositioil is: over and M. 
Leon De Lunden, a we'l-known Belgian snot, is the winner. 
The ch'matic surroundings at the Cercle du Bois de Boulogne 
yesterday were perfect— a nice light, and only just enough breeze

.J,<^'" warm nor too chilly. 
j.^As.on the two previous days the shooting took place "en petit 
i^^ifnit^," only those directly interested in the contest being pres- 
ent. 
Punctually on the stroke of 12 shooting commenced, and during 
the first round some excellent birds were trapped— too food, in-

Medicus Gun Club. . ^ 
Interstate Park, L, I., July 4.— The shoot of the Medicus Gtin 
Club was fairb' well attended to-day at Interstate Park, considering 
that nearly, every club was holding shoots on their own grounds. 
No. 11, at 50 targets, was the inerchandise event, a distance handi- 
cap, each man's handicap being given after his name in the scores 
appended. 
'fhe two-men team race at 100 targets had three entries, and of 
these the East Side Gun Club, of Newark, was an easy winner. 
Banks, of the Medicus Gtiti Club, put up the highest individiial 
score, 96 out of 100. ' 
The weather was exceedingly hot, and a dull light prevailed. -

Worcester Sportsmen's Club. 
Worcester, Mass., June 30.— The Sportsmen's Club held a shoot 
this afternoon and the principal event was a 100-bird contest for a 
prize of $10 \vhich went to the high gun. The entrance was $2, 
which was divided 40, 30, 20 and 10 per cent, to the next four high 
guns. I here were nine entries in this event, and as it was a dis- 
tance handicap affair the result was verv satisfactory to all of the 
contestants. 
The shootrt-s were all very much handicapped by the wind, which 
blew almost a gale and sometimes made it utterly imoossible for 
the shooter to make connections with the targets, which amused 
the spectators exceedingly.

Baltimore Shooting Association Championship. 
Baltimore Md. — The sixth weekly shoot of the Baltimore Shoot- 
ing Association for the championship cup resulted in another vic- 
tory for Leader (A. H. Fox, who shoots under that name). 
This was the third successive time that Leader has led the oyster 
procession for the cup, although he was the only scratch man and 
has shot from the scratch— 18yds. — throughout" the series. The 
scores follow : ' ■ 
Hdcp'^ firdke. Hdcp. Broke.

Malone. 16.. ..5 ■ 40 Robb, 16 8 37 
Hicks, 16 ...10 36 Burke, 16 8 33 
Several of the shooters with extra bird allowances did not shoot 
them, as they could not win if they broke their entire handiqap. 
A thunder gust made the shooting difficult and kept dowp, the 
attendance. Fox used Leader shells in Winchester pump gua.
