WESTERN TRAPS. 
The American Victory. 
Chicago, 111., June 15. — Western shooters received with general 
pleasure, though with little surprise, the announcement of the 
victory of the American team at Hendon. It is noticed with a 
certain degree of satisfaction in this city that our old friend, W. 
R. Crosby, seems to have led all the rest in the good work. He 
scored 93 per cent the first day, 95 the second, and was in the 
same category on the third. Paul North deserves the congratula- 
tions of his friends for having finally and successfully brought off 
this race between the American and English teams. The result 
upon the shooting system in England is apt to be a marked one. 
It is likely that the English shooters will take up the American 
style, which has proved itself so decisive!}' superior. As to the 
interest given to target shooting on the other side, the result of 
the match should be most wholesome. The American shooters are 
lucky to be aisle to have so pleasant a trip, and those interested 
in the sport of trapshooting arc all envying them their good 
fortune. E. HoroK.

Boston Gun Qwb. 
Boston, June 12-— Fourteen shooters decided that Wednesday, 
June L,, was just the kind of day which a trapshooter delights in. 
thoueh not that kind of a day when ihe success of a shoot is told 
by the number of targets thrown,. A shoot of like character is 
°ne that befriends a club more tlian any other, as those who had 
the chance of the pleasure of this afternoon arc more than pleased 
to get there again and are always sure to bring others with them. 
One of the pleasures of the afternoon was the noticeable improve- 
ment in the shooting of two of our most steadfast attendant.s. 
Though not possessed with the amount of skill which comes to 
the lot of our expert, they secure Just as much real fun, and no 
one ever begrudges a broken target on their ledger. Of the others, 
each took a hand in some of the good shooting. Ford distancing 
all tlie rest by breaking 48 out oi HO and 24 out of 25 in the match, 
showing the accuracv of a llcil<cs or Crosby- Second n-^^-'ti-in w" • 
.nbly accounted for by Woodruff with 80 per cent for average, a 21 
in the match, incuientally bettering a previous to, wliieu puis 
him in the lead on totals one bird ahead of Frank, who has not 
availed himself of the chance to throw out any old score';. ,Scores

West Vifgfinia State Sportsmen's Association. 
St. :Marys, W. \'a., June 14.— Tlie fifth annual tournament of 
the West Virginia State Sportsmen's As.sociation, which was held 
on the grounds of the Mountain .State Gun Club, this city, June 
12 and 13, will always be remembered as one of the best tourna- 
ments ever held in the State. The weather was all that could be 
asked for, except, possibly, a little 'warm on the first day, and 
all seemed to enjoy themselves from start to finish. The 
affair was under the personal management of the Mallory Brothers, 
and it goes without saying that everything W'as done that would 
add to the comfort and pleasure of all those in attendance. It is 
no small matter to manage an affair of this kind, looking after 
every detail, and these boys are to be commended for the very 
able and satisfactory manner in which the shoot was conducted. 
If there was a single hitch during the two days' shooting, it 
failed to reach the writer's ears, and they are of pretty good size, 
too. In the cashier's ofhce — well, there is but one cashier in the 
United States that can look after this part of the work like Ed 
Foster, Jr., and that gentleman is Mr. Ed Foster, Jr., of Marietta, 
Ohio. Ed does not shoot much at the traps, but he is most cer- 
tainly an expert in handling the clerical work at a shooting tour- 
nament. He not only posted all scores in less than five minutes 
after they were made, where all could see them, btit also added the 
earnings of each one at the same time. Eddie, you are all right. 
The management was very ably assisted by Mr. Howard Sergent 
and Mr. Chas. North (who has a brother Paul), of the Chamber- 
lin Cartridge and Target Co. Mr. Sergent kept the squad.s on 
the move, and .Mr. North did the same little trick so far as the 
magautrap was concerned. 
The trade was represented by Col. A. G. Courtney, of the Rem- 
ington -Xrms Co.; Mr. R. L. Trimble, of Winchester Repeating 
Arms Co.; Lut,her .Squire, of DuPont Powder Co.; Mr. Chas. 
North, of Cleveland Target Co., and Mr. Howard Sergent. 
The best shooting for the two days was done by Mr. L. B. 
Fleming, of Pittsburg, followed closely by Mr. Frank Alkire. of 
VV'oodlyn, Ohio, and Chas. A. Young, of Springfield, Ohio. The 
longest run during the two days was made by Ed O. Bower, of 
Sistersville, who started in on Thursday morning and got next to 
SI before allowing one to get away. 
Mr. F. E. Mallory, of Parkersburg, carried off the State cham- 
pionship badge by breaking 46 out of 50 targets. He was followed 
closely by Mr. Jos. Y. McNaugbt, of Sistersville, and Mr. John 
F. Mallory, of St. Marys, who were but one target behind. Mr. 
Allen, last year's winner, scored 44. 
In the merchandise event, Mr. John F. Mallory, A. J. Stancliff, 
and J. C. Trees took the three guns, these being the three best 
prizes. Mr. Geo. R. IlaswcU, of Circleville, Ohio, is perhaps the 
happiest man in that village along about this time. He won the 
two bales of hay and two-bushel sack of chopped feed. George is all 
right when it comes to making hay, and can do it with a shotgun 
as well as with a rake. 
.•\t the meeting of the State Association Wednesday" evening, all 
the old officers were re-elected. F. C. Percival, Esq., President, 
and Ed O. Bower. Secretary-Treasurer. The following are Vice- 
Presidents: John F. Mallorj-. St. Marys; Hon. J. A. de Gruyter, 
Charlestown; F. E. Mallory, Parkersburg: Jos. Y. McNaught, Sis- 
tersville; Dr. II. Clay Shaw, Piedmont, and John B. Garden, 
Wheeling. .-Vftcr quite a spirited contest as to who should get 
the State shoot for next year, Wheeling finally went .straight and 
Knocked the persimmon.

The New York State Shoot. 
Thk New I'trecht Gun Chib has issued a letter as follows: 
To the chibs comprising the New York .State .\ssociation for 
the I'rotection of Game and Fish. 
I^ientlemen : The forty-third annual convention and tournament 
of the New York State .-Sssociation for the Protection of Game 
.•ind Fish will be held under the auspices of the New Utrecht 
Gun Club at Interstate Park, L. I., on September 10, 11, 12, 
13 and 14, 1901. 
At the annual convention of this Association, held at Utica in 
June, 1900, it was decided that the convention and tournament in 
1901 should be held under the auspices of the New Utrecht Gun 
Club, in the city of New York. 
Some months ago it was suggested to the writer that because 
of the Pan-.^merican Exhibition at Buffalo, which would indis- 
putably, be a great attraction to a very large number of the 
trapshooting fraternity, and as our Buffalo friends were arrange- 
ing for a shoot on a very large scale, to be held during the 
exhibition, it wovdd be considered a very graceful act of courtesy 
on the part of the N. U. G. C. to waive the privilege of 
Buffalo, and also that such privilege, if accorded to Buffalo, 
would tend materially to insure the success of the Pan-.\merican 
shoot then being arranged for. 
Conceding this point, we took a vote by mail of all the clubs 
represented at the Utica convention, and, with one exception, all 
voted in favor of the transfer to Buffalo of the State tournament 
of 1901. 
We communicated with our friends at Buffalo, and they were 
apparently enthusiastic over the proposed transfer. The nego- 
tiations, however, have been so unsatisfactory that we have been 
comjielled to abandon them, and as stated, the annual conven- 
tion and tournament will be held at Interstate park from .Sep- 
tember 10 to 14, both dates inclusive. 
\\ c have been obliged to make these dates later than usual, as 
there has not been sufficient time to arrange matters for June. 
The grand .American handicap at targets will be held in July, and 
other tournaments already arranged for prevent our making 
•Vugust dates. Under the circumstances, we have decided that 
.September will be best, and as all tlie seaside resorts are open 
at that time our fellow members of the .\ssociation may be as- 
sured of a good time. 
Targets will be charged for at 2 cents and pigeons at 25 cents. 
The full programme of State and open events will be published 
;is soon as it is completeii, and will contain all information 
necessary. The tournament will be under the management of 
Mr. Elmer E. Shaner. Respectfully submitted, for the New 
Utrecht Gun Club, Walter F. Svkes, President.

Sherbrooke, P. Q., June 8. — The members are unanimously of 
the opinion that the distance handicap system is a greater success 
than was suspected. The beginner, who is close up, is encouraged, 
and the chests of those who have been set back swell with pride, 
and all are pleased. 
The gun cabinet series is being much enjoyed, and is just the 
thing to keep the boys regular in their attendance. Even the few 
who do not shoot in it are interested.

June 1.5. — This was a perfect day, but a military inspection neces- 
sarily kept several whose duty lay in their country's service. The 
shooting was far above our usual average: Thompson, IS, 23; 
Craig, 19, 22: Walton, 19, 21; Bray, 20, 19; White, 18, 19; Loomis,
