The Carteret Championship. 
The Carteret championship, the great anntial event of the Cartexet 
Gun Club, was shot on the grounds of the club at Garden City. 
L I., on Feb. 21 and 22. Each year the honor has been earnestly 
contested, this year being no e.xception. 
The trophv was beautiful as a work of art, and intrinsically val- 
uable. It was donated by Mr. William Payne Thompson, and was 
valued at $400 by the club. It was probably worth much more 
reallv. 
The conditions were 100 live birds, ?100 entrance, money to be 
.divided 40, 25, 15 and 10 per cent., and 10 per cent, to the club. 
All shooters stood at 30yds. Each day each contestant was allowed 
ione bye bird. In case of twelve entries or more the following rules 
were announced to govern: "The shooter who misses 10 birds by 
.the time the 50th i-ound was finished, and thereby becomes 10th 
■in place or lower, shall drop out without the privilege of re-entry. 
■The shooter who misses 16 birds bv the time the 75th round is 
ilinished, and therebv becomes Sth in place or lower, shall drop 
.out without privilege' of re-entrv. From the 75th round up to the 
finish the referee shall retire, with privilege, those shooters who, m 
his opinion, have no chance of sharing in the moneys. Entries will 
be received up to the first round on the day of the shoot._ The 
referee shall continue the first day's shooting as long as in_ his 
estimation the light holds good, or as may be desirable to facilitate 
i-ompieting the event." , , j j .-u 
The shooting on the first day, Thursday, was concluded at the 
end of the 45th round. At that juncture Dr. T. C. Wilson, ot 
Savannah, Ga., was 1 bird in the lead, having killed 41, with 
Harold Money and C. A. Painter, of the Herron Hill Gun Uub, 
but 1 bird less. ' . , j n,- 1 j 
The birds were an excellent lot of special birds. Birds and 
n-eather conditions combined to test the skill of the contestants to 
the utmost, for there was a driving, strong, cold wind, which 
helped the birds wonderfully, and they flitted out of the 30yd. 
be -dsrv in a twinkling if not shot at promptly or accurately. 
There were seventeen contestants. At the end of the 01 h round 
the u.uspt^u-, lor good scores were small indeed, for but t\yo, 
Messrs Harold Money and H. Kirkover, had killed o birds straight, 
the others having missed from 1 to 4 of their first 5. 
On the second day the weather conditions were more favorable 
for good shooting, the wind blowing from 4 o'clock, not being so 
'"^Trihe finish there was close work between Messrs. Harold B 
Kirkover and Col Tom Martin. Mr. Money came out victor by 1 
bird the other two above mentioned being but 1 bird less, ihe 
win was an exceeding.y popular one. Considering the excellence ot 
the birds the hard weaiher condiiions, and the narrow boundary, 
the score was of a high order and deserving of much praise. Ihe 
fact that so many seasoned and tried shots, 01 known ability, ia.iled 
to do so well is the best testimonial to its merit. 
■ Mr Walker Breese Smitli, of Tuxedo, acted as referee.

Forester Gon Club. 
.\lbaniy, N. Y., Feb. 23.— The annual midwinter tournament of 
the Forester Gun Club, held on Washington's Birthday, was a 
success in every waj'. The attendance was larger than usual, and 
the weather conditions were all that could be expected at this 
season of the year. There was just enough breeze from the south 
to give the targets an uncertain flight at times, and this kept the 
boj's guessing. The programme called for ten 15-target events, with 
a total entrance of ,?]2.50. The purses were divided in four moneys.

made a score of 24 out of 25, dusting very hard the bird that was 
scored lost.

The local shooters — Messrs. Miller, Saucier, Stutte, Sinnot, Lee, 
Pourseine, Jackson, Kaufman, McMurdo, Benedict, Tiblier, Will- 
iams, and Lhote — were very much in evidence, shooting nearly 
through the entire programme. About 8,000 targets were thrown. 
Mr. Emil Werk and Fred Bader, of Cincinnati, visited the shoot 
on the first day. 
Maurice Kaufman, the genial and popular Southern representative 
of Peters Cartridge Company, was here, there and everywhere, 
making it pleasant for all the visiting shooters, making friends for 
himself and company all the time.

Gottlieb— De Long Match. 
Preliminary to the annual Hot Springs tournament, an indi- 
vidual match was shot on the afternoon of Saturday, Feb. 16, be- 
tvveen C. E. De Long, of Hot Springs, and Chris Gottlieb, of 
Kansas City. The match as originally arranged was at 50 live birds 
per man, for $50 a side. However, Mr. De Long labored under the 
disadvantage of having a gun out of repair, so that it was not sure 
of fire on the second barrel. He started in to shoot the race in 
very good style, but woa^king under this difficulty lost 3 birds in the 
first 25, and finally on the 31st round the contestants agreed to call 
the match oft', Mr. De Long agreeing to pay for all birds shot_ at 
by both parties, and another match was aranged to follow im- 
mediately at 20 birds per inan, one barrel only, 30yds. rise. This 
was a pretty stiff" contract — more so, perhaps, than either man 
realized, for the birds were a fast lot, and most of them got away 
without a moment's hesitation. Up to his 31st bird in the first 
race Mr. Gottlieb shot in superb form, killing all his birds stone 
dead without a scratch; but in the one-barrel contest both con- 
testants found themselves compelled to shcot in different time, and 
the black powder bushwhacker, in the person of the Arkansas 
small boy, got a chance to show his hand up on the mountainside. 
Mr. Gottlieb won with 2 birds to the good. The scores:
