Pennsylvania State Sportsmen's Association. 
Harrisburg, Pa., Feb. 9.— It is with profound personal sorrow 
that I advise you of the death of our esteemed friend Moses H. 
Brensinger. which occurred at his home on Thursday morning, 
Feb. 7. Mose, whose shooting cognomen was "Sullivan, had a 
very wide and extended acQuaintance among the shooting fraternity 
of this and other States. He took great interest and enjoyment m 
.shooting, both at the traps and in the field, and when his business 
would permit he was always to be counted present at all of the 
leading events in the State and county. His record at the traps 
was as enviable as was his business record— and by that I mean 
the best. He was a man of genial spirit, whose companionship 
was as inviting as it was warm and lasting. His last meeting 
With the bovs of the State was at Chambersburg m May, 1900, and 
though in delicate health at the time he entered into the full en- 
joyment of the programme, and apparently, gleaned from the emula- 
tion to be gathered upon such occasions very much pleasure. 
Shortly after that he contracted a cold, which developed into 
consumption, and all efforts made to obtain relief proved futile. 
The Association remembered him in a beautiful sunset floral 
design, surmounted by two white doves, and will have the resolu- 
tions handsomely engrossed, framed and presented to his family 
as a final tribute to his memory. Thus we are again reminded of 
the trthfulness of the song of the old sexton—' Cne by one I 
gather them home." , , tt • -u ei ^- a 
He was a charter member of the Harrisburg Shooting Associa- 
tion, and was among its most energetic workers. At a special 
meeting of that Association held last evening the following 
preamble and resolutions were adopted: „ , tt -r. 
W'hereas, In the providence of Almighty God, Moses ti. ^J^ren- 
sin<^er, for many years an active member of the Harrisburg shoot- 
ing" 'Association, has been called to his eternal rest; therefore, be it 
Resolved, That the members of this Association have learned with 
profound regret of the decease of M. PI. Brensinger, and that the 
sympathy and condolence of the members of this Association are 
hereby tendered to the family of the deceased. 
Resolved That in his death this Associlation has sustained the 
loss of an active, efficient and worthy member, whose memory will 
always be cherished by the members of this AssociaUon.

Distance Handicap Shooting. 
Palmer, Mass.— Since the Massachusetts Amateur Shooting As- 
sociation voted to conduct its sweep shooting under the distance 
handicap system there has been much talk by trapshooters in 
Massachusetts as to its success. Most of the shooters of the As- 
sociation think it will meet with favor. A few, however, both 
hope and think it will prove a failure. 
'the question arises, "Why is trapshooting not more popular?" 
My answer is: "Because beginners and the poorer shooters are 
not given encouragement. 
The 55 and 60 per cent, men stand the same distance, pay the 
same entrance fee as the 75, 80 and 90 per cent. men. VVhat show 
do the 55 and 69 per cent, men have? Their scores are such that 
they get no encouragement or even small return of the entrance 
money. . 
So the outcome is, the men who cannot break better than 60 to 
65 per cent, in most cases keep out of the contests, and watch, 
as they claim, "die wolves chew each other." 
As secretary of the Association, I had the chance during the 
year of 1900 to watch the scores of the shooters. One-tenth of the 
members shot SO per cent, or better; two-fifths of the members shot 
from 70 to 80 per cent., and 50 per cent, of the members shot less 
than 70 per cent. 
Upon closer figuring, one-half of the 50 per cent, members did 
not average over 61 per cent., and in most cases did not enter into 
more than two or three sweeps in each tournament. 
I had a talk with some of the low average men, and found they 
did not win during the days of the shoots one cent. They say it 
is like racing a horse which cannot go better than 2:40 with a 
horse which can go in 2.10. 
1 then took some of the poorer shots and beginners and gave 
them a distance handicap. Some shot from the 10yd. line, some 
at 12yds., etc. Then a marked improvement was seen in the scores. 
The men were encouraged. They took new courage, as they were 
given a chance. 
If the distance handicap system proves as much of a success as 
I think during the year of 1901 we will see manv new faces at our 
shoots and our _ poorer shooters will have advanced, and with 
pleasure tell their friends that they have been put back by the 
handicapper from the 10 and 12yd. lines to the 16yd. line. The 
Massachusetts Amateur Shooting Association intends to give the 
system a fair trial. 
Each club has a club handicapper, and the Association has one 
handicapper, who will have charge of the Association handicapping 
at each tournament. The shooters will be allowed to advance and 
be set back as the handicapper sees fit. The team shoots will, how- 
ever, be conducted under the same system as last year, everybody 
shooting from the 16yd. line. 
During the week the Springfield Gun Club has joined the Asso- 
ciation, and will probably enter the team race in place of the Am- 
herst Club. Dr. S. B. Keith, Sec'y M. A. S. A. 
Boston Gon Ciuh* 
Boston, Feb. 6. — ^Very few shooters braved the elements of a 
chilly northwest wind at the Boston Gun Club's fourth prize 
shoot on their grounds at Wellington to-day. Good scores were 
not a possibility, as the strong wind played havoc with both the 
targets and shooter. The only ones that it did not affect were 
the trapper and scorer, the latter seeming to delight in putting 
down a great big 0 against some poor unfortunate. The 21yd. 
shooter did not seem to mind it any more than the rest of his less 
expert companions, as shooting from his long-distance mark in 
all but one event he secured high average, for the prize match. 
Baker was high in the prize match, breaking 20 birds of the 30.

Mississippi Valley Notes* 
T.,T'^fP?H00TiNG matters have been exceedingly quiet in the 
Mississippi Valley region during the past two months. This, 
nowever, is nothing out of the ordinary, as secretaries of gun 
clubs invariably eschew these months on account of the probable 
untriendliness of the weather. And even though the ground hog 
did not see his shadow on Feb. 2 there is a general feeling that 
rnuch winter is yet to come, and little will be done by the smaller 
shooting organizations until after the first of March. The coming 
se.ison, though, promises to break all records in the matter of 
shooting at the trap, and the writer has advice of no less than 
twenty touimaments that will probably be held in Illinois alone 
before the first of June. 
The St. Louis shooting fraternity are about the only ones who 
have kept up practice work with little interruption. Perhaps the 
tact that the State shoot is to be held there again is responsible . 
tor some of this activity and interest, but the boys are prone to 
ascribe it m.ostly to the indefatigable energy of David Elliott, the 
hustling lessee of the Dupont Shooting Park. Semi-weekly meets 
have been held on the grounds since the first of the year, and the 
attendance is uniformly good. Usually there is a short target 
programme, and a short race at live birds. 
Mr C. E. De Long writes that there is every prospect of a 
record attendance at the fourth annual tournament of the Hot 
Springs Gun Club, Feb. 18 to 24. The management has indeed 
spared no effort to provide an attractive programme, hanging up 
a cold ?1,000 in added cash money. There will be ten events, 
totaling 165 targets, on the programme each of the three days 
devoted to that sport, and in each event the club adds $25. The 
big hve-bird handicap will have $200 added. The amateurs are well 
taken care of, each expert being charged 25 cents an event extra 
as soon as he attains a daily average of 80 per cent or better 
this to be divided among those below who stay through the game! 
In addition, $50 is given for high average, this competition being 
open to all but trade representatives. 
The Farmer City Gun Club gave a good shot last week, with 
an attractive target and live-bird programme. Weather was un- 
favorable, but a good attendance came out just the same, and 
this wide-awake club has again widened its circle of friends, and 
Its influence in the promotion of the sport. 
The Markle target works at Granite City, the home of the St. 
Louis blackbird, which were destroyed by fire late in the fall, have 
been rebuilt on a much larger scale than formerly, and manu- 
facture will shortly be resumed. 
The Piasa Gun Club, of Alton, will resume weekly competitive 
shoots March 1 for the two medals donated last year by Presi- 
dent Schweppe and the Western Cartridge Co. This is one of the 
oldest shooting organizations in the West, its members having 
practiced regularly for fifteen years. 
President J. R. B. Van Cleave writes me that everything looks 
promising for the annual meet of the Illinois State Sportsmen's 
Association,, which is scheduled for the third week in May, at 
Springfield. The directors will convene shortly to decide upon 
the programme, and details of the tournament, which is to last 
all week, 
A number of the boys who are at Indianapolis this week have 
arranged for special railroad accommodations thence to Hot 
Springs; the crowd will leave for the South Friday evening or 
Saturday morning. This will give Sunday in which to rest up for 
the work of the following week.
