WESTERN TRAPS. 
Intercity Team Race Revived. 
Chicago, 111., Feb. 2. — There is at this time a very good chance 
that the project of a team race between the National Gun Club, of 
Milwaukee, and the Garden City Gun Club, of Chicago, may be 
revived, and perhaps brought to a successful issue. Under date of 
Jan. 29 Mr. E. E. Rogers, chairman of the shooting committee of 
the National Gun Club, of Milwaukee, wrote to Mr. J. H. Amberg, 
president of the Garden City Gun Club, in terms which leave every 
hope that we shall see this team race shot at an early date. Mr. 
Rogers states that he has been sick, and hence has not taken up 
the matter as he should have done. He suggests a team of twelve 
men from the National . Gun Club to meet a team of a similar 
number from the Garden City Gun Club, the race to be shot at the 
National Gun Club grounds, in Milwaukee, the shooting to be in 
squads of four, at 15 birds per man, birds at 20 cents, losers to pay 
for the birds. The visitors will be given a light banquet on the 
day of the race, and a return race will be shot at Chicago. Ameri- 
can Association rules of 1899 to govern, except where such rules 
may conflict with local ground rules. Members of the National 
Gun Club from whom the team would be chosen for Milwaukee 
will be as follows: Messrs. Keifer, Houghton, Vose, Deiter, 
Klapmski, Bvirnham, Sherer, Bush, Collins, King, Stuth, Potter, 
Blake, Rogers, Case, Miexncr, Thomas, Reed, Pettit and Silver- 
man. The team for the Garden City Club has not been selected. 
There are one or two little points besides the above which remain 
to be adjusted, but at a meeting of the Garden City Gun Club held 
this morning it was stated by Mr. Levi, secretary of the club, that 
all these matters would in all likelihood be arranged at an early 
date, and that the race would probably be shot at Milwaukee on 
Tuesday, Feb. 12. It is much to be hoped that this contest will be 
brought off, for when properly conducted these intercity races are 
promoters of good fellowship. It is even money which city would 
■win, for each club can put up a good team. 
In Town. 
Mr. W. Fred Quimby, of New York, is in the city this morning 
and will be in the West for some days. Mr. Quimby is looking 
younger every miiiute. He brings to the shooters of this vicinity 
the very welcome news that Capt. A. W. Money, of the E C & 
Schultze Gunpowder Co., is recovering nicely from the misfortune 
to which he was lately subjected at the hands of a New York 
shooter. It need hardly be added, in view of Capt. Money's reputa- 
tion as a gentleman and a sportsman, that he has the sympathy and 
the entire confidence of every sportsman of the West, as well as of 
the East. 
Live Birds. 
We are having now good, clear winter weather, splendid for live- 
bird shooting and a good thing for Garfield and other clubs whose 
events are now calling them to the traps. It has not been a very 
memorable winter in Chicago live-bird circles, and it would be a 
welcome thing if some one would get up a good, stiff pigeon match 
of the old kind. 
RoUa Heifces* Midwinter Shoot. 
Jan. 31. — Rolla Heikes and Jack Hallowell are having just a little 
more fun to-day than anybody else in the wide, wide world. The 
midwinter target shoot is turning out a hummer, as the scores of 
the first day show, with their roll of the steadies. Rolla said that 
he was going to have "an oldtime shoot," and there doesn't exist 
any room for doubt that he is doing that same at this writing. The 
balance for the first day shows Pork Chops Neal, of Bloomington, 
Ind., high gun, 191, with the Pa of the shoot, the Bald Eagle of 
Dayton, second in the tie with Fred Gilbert, 190. One can imagine 
the benevolent smile with which Jack Hallowell will hand Pork 
Chops his envelope at the close of the day's labor. Fanning, Alkire, 
Trimble, Burnside, Gambell, McDonald, Parker, Courtney, Mackie 
and a lot_ others of the regulars are doing business with the birds, 
and the first day stamps the shoot a winner. 
Si Palmer's Invitation Shoot. 
You Uncle Si Palmer pulled ofi" another of his enjoyable little 
invitation shoots at the Ackerman farm, at Glen Ellyn, a pretty 
suburb west of Chicago, on Jan. 29, having out with him a half 
dezen of his friends, who had the pleasure of seeing some of the 
trained farm birds hie them thence to the barn. Eddie Bingham 
seems to have got the combination better than anybody else, for he 
stopped 63 out of 66, which is record for that locality. The main 
event was at 25 birds, and in this W. B. Lefiingwell scored 21, 
J. B. Barto 19, Eddie Bingham 24, S. Palmer 21, J. Bowles 13, Mr. 
Hicks 15. They then made up a handicap, Bowles and Hicks get- 
ting 6 birds extra, and the scores were Bingham 23, Palmer 16, 
Leffingwell 16, Barto 18, Bowles 22, Hicks 18. 
Illinois State Sportsmen's Association. 
The officers of the Illinois State Sportsmen's Association are 
laboring hard to get everything in good shape for the big shoot next 
May (May 21-25), and there seems to be a very good interest mani- 
fested in the coming tournament. Among clubs now enrolled are 
the following: The Crescent, Audubon, Garfield, Hennepin, Chi- 
cago, Garden City, Fearless and West Pullman, of Chicago; Aledo, 
Blue Island, Clinton, Dixon, Evanston, Elgiiu National, Dvipont, of 
Freeport; Farmer City, Geneseo, Grand Crossing, La Grange, 
Eureka, of Lyons; Long Lake, Douglass, of La Vergne; Sunday

As Reported fay a Golf Player. 
Pigeon shooting as reported by a golf player may be seen below 
in the story of the Wishininne Club team race, mentioned in these 
columns some days earlier. A Chicago local sporting paper, with 
customarj' accuracy, reports that the teams were Messrs. Clarke 
and Dennis on one side against Messrs. Wells and Haskell on the 
other, and that, "while the latter were reported to be the better 
shots, they failed to show their form." The facts were, as stated 
in the Forest and Stream that Mr. Clarke and Mr. Haskell were 
partners, and shot against Mr. Wells and Mr. Dennis. Nobody 
showed his form especially, except Col. Haskell, to determine whose 
skill this match was especially arranged. He came out where the 
wagers put him, and has been very quiet at the meetings of the 
Wishiuinnes ever since. But this is what the golf player does by 
way of getting a trap story, and it is all there, and since you see it 
in the Forest axd Stream, you may feel that the teams are paired 
off as they shot, and not hitched up wrong. The birds were said 
by John Watson to be as hard as any he has trapped for a long 
time. The local paper says,^ "A fairly good lot, but not up to 
\Vatson's standard." Scores a la golf: 
Burnside, Jan, 22. — Two-men team match. 50 birds to team, 25

Will Be There. 
I saw Tom Divine, "dear old Tom Divine," as the boys call him, 
down at Memphis this past week, and he told me that he was surely 
going to be on hand for the handicapping work at New York the 
coming month of ilarch, and that perhaps he might take a hand 
in the Grand American himself, just to get rid of his money. Tom 
is not so strong as he should be — has been sick all winter and 
ought not to be at work— but he is the same cheerful Tom, and it 
is mucn to be hoped that this representative Southern shooter can 
keep his own intention and be at the handicap. It will be worth 
while to go Just to see Tom Divine.

Garfield Gun Qub. 
Chicago, Feb. 2.— The inclosed scores were made on our grounds 
to-day, on the occasion of the ninth trophy shoot of the season. 
Dr. Shaw carried ofT the honors of the day by being the only one 
to go straight in the trophy event. The entire shoot was brought 
off in a rather sharp snow storm, and it was decidedly chilling 
and unpleasant weather to be out in. The birds were a fast lot, as 
the large number of dead outs testify. The attendance was good, 
considering weather conditions:

R» O, Heikes'^Midw;inter Tottmament. 
Dayton, O. — The three days' tournament given by Mr. R. O. 
Heikes, on the grounds of the Buckeye Gun Club, Jan. 30, 31 and 
Feb. 1, was notable for the excellence of the shooting and the 
steadiness with which the majority shot through the entire pro- 
gramme. Many of the famous shots of America engaged in the 
competition. 
On the first day Mr. E. A. Neal was high average with .955, 
breakmg 191 targets out of a possible 200.- Heikes and Gilbert tied 
on 190 breaks, each averaging 95 per cent., one-half of one per 
cent, less than Neal. Tripp was fourth with .945; Rhoads fifth 
with .935; Fanning was sixth with .935; Sanford .920; Alkire and 
Burnside .885; Trimble .880; Squier .875. 
The programme was alike for each day. The entrance was 
based on 10 cents per target. To each event $5 was added, except 
the sixth, which had 110 added. In -the 15-target events the money 
was divided 40, 30, 20 and 10. In the 20 and 25 target events it 
was divided 30, 25, 20, 15 and 10 per cent. Contestants making 90 
per cent, or more the first and second days paid $2 extra entrance 
for the succeeding day, which formed a fund, which was divided 
equally among the men shooting tttrough the entire programme 
who had not averaged on the first or second day 90 per cent, or 
better. . 
To the first high gun of the entire programme there was a prize 
of a silver pitcher; to second, $10; to third, $6; to fourth, $4. 
The traps were one set Sergeant system, one magautrap. 
The ground was covered with snow, and the glare bothered the 
boys some, although it was cloudy most of the time. 
The first day was quite cold, and Elmer Neal showed the boys 
how to break them, missing but 9 out of 200,- Heikes and Gilbert 
following with 10 each. 
The second day was a very cold one, as the mercury went to 
5 degrees below zero at 7 A. M., yet there was an average' of twenty 
men who shot through the programme of 20O targets. Many of 
the local men did not turn out on this account. 
Heikes led the men on the last day 'by' a go^Dd margin. He made 
a run of 126 straight and Fanning, his nearest competitor, made 
63, but finished with 15 misses for the day against Heikes' 6. 
Gilbert and Neal were still having a hot race for second place for 
the two days, Neal with 25 misses and Gilbert with 26. 
Rhoads and Tripp, two important factors in the average race, 
were obliged to leave on the evening of the second day. 
The third day saw Heikes still rnaintain his lead. Gilbert tied 
him for the day's average, but the. .Bald Eagle had beaten him 10 
targets in the 600. 
Neal shot a sturdy race, but Gilbert overhauled him, and won 
out by 2 targets for the three daj's — verily a close r,ace. 
Fanning landed in fourth place without any opposition, as no 
one below him reached 90 per cent. 
The shoot was well attended, considering the severe weather.
