Keystone Shooting League vs. Phoenix Gun Clofa. 
Philadelphia Pa., Aug. 25.— The series of matches between 
teams of the Keystone Shooting League and the Phcenix Gun 
Club began at Holmesburg Junction to-day, and resulted in a vic- 
tory for the home team. There were ten men to a team, and 
each man shot at 50 targets. As a team score the Keystone's was 
quite high, as they broke 501 targets out of 600 shot at, a trifle 
over 84 per cent. The Phcenix team scored 458, i?, targets less 
than their opponents. The targets were thrown from a magautrap. 
The weather was close and sultry, so that gun barrels became hot 
and unpleasant to handle, and perspiration flowed copiously. 
The Kevstone team took the lead at the very start, and were 
never headed off, each squad gaining a few targets. The shoot- 
ing was done in squads of six men, three men from each team 
making a squad, each squad shooting at 25 targets per man be- 
fore retiring. 
For the visiting team J. H. Miller did the best work, breakuig 
46, H. C. Buckwalter, the crack shot of the Club, breakmg 45. 
For the Keystone team W. N. Stevenson made the high score, 47; 
Laiidis second with 46. 
score— 47 — Landis second with 46. 
Following the team match several sweepstake events were con- 
tested, Howard Ridge winning the bulk of the money. The 
scores follow:

Wynn-Morfey vs. Webljer-Hagedorn, 
A most interesting and closely contested match was shot at In- 
terstate Park, Queens, ;Vug. 25, between two-men teams. Dr. W. 
Wynn an d Mr. T. W. Morfey against Dr. A. A. Webber and Mr. 
G. W. Hagedorn. The birds were good as a whole, though 
mixed in quality, with very few sitters and quite a number of 
screamers. The performance of Morfey from the 33}'d. mark 
was quite admirable. He started in a bit unsteadily, but after 
the 11th round he began to get the swing and time, killing 37 
out of the remaining 39. Dr. Webber was close up with 44.. Mr. 
R. A. Welch acted as referee: 
Morfey and Wynn.

WESTERN TRAPS. 
Elliott Wins Dupont Trophy. 
Chicago, 111., Aug. 25.— T. A. R. Elliott yesterday found E. S. 
Graham, of this city, easy for the Dupont trophy, which the latter 
had won from Joe Barto not long ago. Graham set the number of 
birds at 33, but this was no hoodoo for the Kansas City crack, who 
only went into a trance and forgot to wake up until he had killed 
them all but one. Graham was not quite so fortunate, losing 2 
out of the 25-string, and 3 more out of his last eight. Two of 
Graham's birds were dead out of bounds, his first bird shot at 
going out in this way. He then killed 7 straight, missed, and 
then killed 15. 
Elliott was first at the score, and he killed straight out to his 
12th. After that there was not much to write about on his side 
of the sheet. 
The birds were very fast and strong. Wind, high and incoming.

GarfieM Gun Qub. 
Chicago, Aug. 25. — The appended scores were iiiadfe on our 
grounds to-day on the occasion of ..the sixteenth trophy shoot of 
the series. 
S. E. Young carried ofi' the honors and also Class A. medal 
on a score of 22. W. P. Northcott won Class B medal on 20, and 
A. D. Dorman won Class C medal, also on 20. 
The day was an ideal one for trapshooting. A light breeze 
blowing, quartering across the traps, made the flight somewhat 
erratic, but not enough to discourage even a beginner. 
Twenty shooters participated in the trophy event, several others 
coming later.

Bellows Falls Entertains Fitchburg. 
The Bellows Falls Gun Club held its weekly shoot on the club 
grounds, Drislain's field, Friday, Aug. 17. The boys received notice 
that tlie Fitcliburg Gun Club would pay them a visit and arrive 
on the 9:30 A. M. train. A committee, consisting of Messrs. Ray, 
Norwood and Gibson, met the visitors at the depot and escorted 
(hem to the Hotel Rockingham, where arrangements had been 
made for an early dinner, which was served at 10:30. After dinner 
the club had a barge in waiting and conveyed the visitors to the 
grounds, and shooting began at 11:30, twenty-four shooters taking 
part. The club had for visitors the following named gentlemen: 
Mr. J. S. Hull, representing the Parker gun; Messrs. Wilder, 
Converse, Cutler, K.ob, Estey and Dr. Russell, of Fitchburg; 
Mr. Andrews, of Leominster; Messrs. Lasure and Nelson, of 
Winchester; Messrs. Laggard and Kingsbury, of Walpole, and 
Mr. Nelson, of Bernardston. The two events that caused the 
most excitement were Nos. 3 and 4, Mr. John Flint offering « 
cash prize of $5 for high gun in a 25-target event, and No. 3 was 
decided on as the event. Messrs. Converse, Underbill and Gib- 
son tied at 23, and on shooting off the tie Gibson won out with 
10 straight. Event No. 4 was a team race of seven men, and 
was won by Fitchburg with a score of 135 to 133 for Bellows 
Falls. Two of the Bellows Falls men shot poorly. About 3,000 
targets were thrown during the afternoon. The only regrets 
were that the Fitchburg boys had to leave for home so early 
(3:30); but they waited until they only had time to catch the 
rear platform of their train. We hope to be able to meet the 
Fitchburg team again this fall and have another match with 
them, as the record now stands one win for each team. Below 
is the score for tlie day: 
Team match: 
Fitchburg.
