IMcssrs. J. R. Malone and J. M, Hawkins, of Baltltnoie, an- 
nounce a tournament Aug. 14, 15 and 16; two days at targets, and 
one day at live birds; added money and merchandise prizes, They 
further state: "The tournament will be held at Tolchester Beach, 
Kent county, Md., which is about two hours' sail from Baltimore 
on fine steamers, wliich leave Pier 16, Light street wharf, at 8:30 
A. M- and 2 P. M. daily. First-class hotel accommodations will 
be found on the grounds for those wishing to remain during the 
tournament. No finer place could be selected in the country for 
holding a summer tournament, as the shooting grounds are located 
on a high bluff, over 30ft. above tidewater, where a cool breeze 
from the broad Chesapeake Bay is always to be had. As the tour- 
nament will be held on Eastern Shore, we have decided to give 
a handsome gold medal for the champion shot of Eastern Shore of 
Maryland at 50 targets. There will also be a ten-man team race, 
Eastern Shore vs. Western Shore. Residents of Baltimore City 
barred. Programmes will be ready about Aug. 1." 
While some of the contestants may have felt that they were 
handicapped very severely — that is, if they did not happen to 
win anything — the following, taken from the Richmond Dispatch 
of July 18, shows that handicapping as an art is pregnant with 
still greater possibilities as to distances, etc. It is as follows-. 
"Elijah p. Fulford, of Utica, N. Y., outshot a field of 78 con- 
testants in the preliminary handicap at 100 targets per man at 
Interstate Park, L. I., to-day, and won the event — $750, and a 
silver trophy valued at $50. He broke 97 out of 100 targets. He 
stood at 80 yards. His closest opponents were John W. Hoff- 
man, of New Jersey, and D. W. Sawin, of Gardiner, Mass., each 
of whom broke 92 targets from the 70 yard mark^ Sawin wmning 
on the shoot-ofT. The next best score was 91, F. A. Inman, of 
Pascoag, R. I., who stood at 150 yards. None of the back mark- 
ers, such as Crcsby, Gilbert, and Fanning, shot up to their 
scores in England recently, but they were heavily handicappea 
to-day, as they stood at 200 , 210, and 25 yards." 
Mr. C. G, Blandford, captain of the club, writes us as follows : 
"The Ossining Gun Club will give on Wednesday, Aug. 14, a grand 
clam bake. This will be the first of a series of entertainments to 
be given by the Gun Club, and every effort will be made to make 
of it a most enjoyable occasion. The day's fun will start at 10 
A. M. with a merchandise clay-bird tournament. In each event a 
special merchandise prize will be offered, not to be .shot for, 
but drawn for by those entering itt the events, so that 
tlie casual shooter will have the same chance as the 
more expert one. Sweepstakes will be divided in the usual 
manner. Shooting will continue throughout the afternoon 
till fi o'clock, when the music of Doyle's Ossining band 
will announce that the sea weed has been raked away, and that 
the bake is ready for the tables, together with all the accessories 
which go to make up a first-class clam bake. Ossining is thirty 
miles from New York city on the N. Y. C. & H. R. R. R." 
The following is taken from an exchange: "King Edward, of 
England, can handle a gun with the best field shots. When in 
India he went in for that most exciting of sports, tiger shooting, 
and it is on record that when out with Sir Jung Bahadur in 
Nepal he brought down six tigers in one day." It is a matter of 
deep regret ^that King Edward was not included in the membership 
of the English team in its recent contest with the American team. 
King Edward, wearing his Sunday crown for a shooting cap, 
would have been no small factor in making better gate receipts 
than were in evidence. The foregoing excerpt, however, is rather 
suggestive of what might have happened if Sir Jung Bahadur, 
whose name indicates that he would concede that when they both 
fired at the same tiger the kill v/as the King's, had remained at 
home. In a tiger shoot an official referee and scorer are essentials 
for official records.

Mr. W. H. Hayes, of Ottawa, Canada, writes us as follows: "At 
the request of Mr. A. W. Throop, secretary-treasurer of the Domin- 
ion Trapshooting and Game Protective Association, under whose 
auspices the St. Hubert Gun Club, of Ottawa, is holding the first 
annual tournament on Aug. 15, 16 and -17, as announced in your 
'Fixtures,' I write to inform you that the programme is now in 
the printer's hands, and will be ready for distribution toward the 
close of next week. There will be two events each day, seven 
guaranteed purses of $50 each, with added money. There will be 
some merchandise prizes, but the main feature of the extra series 
match will be cash prizes to value of $150. All events will be shot 
over the magautrap, except extra series, which will be shot over 
five expert traps. Grounds are first class and easy of access. It 
is cool up here in the shadow of the Laurentides.' 
On July 13, the third, and, as it proved, the final contest of 
the series for -the cup, was shot between five-man teams of the 
Exeter, Dover and Portsmouth Gun Clubs. The Exeter Gun 
_ Club was victorious for the third time. In the acceptance of 
Ithe cnp Mr. Gerrish, of the Exeter team, stated the sentiment 
associated with the cup was most prized, and that the cup was 
now open to teams from any clubs in New Hampshire, or even 
the United States. Each man shot at 20 targets, thus making a 
total of l')0 possible. The scores were: Exeter, 95; Dover, 83; 
Portsmouth, 78.

The Sharon Springs, N. Y., Gun Club announces that its first 
shoot will be held on Aug. 3, commencing at 10 o'clock. A 
magautrap and bluerocks will be used. There are 15 events on the 
programme. Entrance $1.25, targets included. Rose system, 5, 
4, 3 and 2. Agents may shoot for targets only. Mr. Andrew 
Smith is the secretary. . 
n 
Many articles have first and last been written on the matter of 
trapshooting and its unlikeness to field shooting. It is held by 
;ome sportsmen that, being unlike field shooting, it is accordingly 
wrong. The matter is discussed on the editorial page of Forest 
AT!D Stream this week.

The two-man team match fixed to take place at Interstate Park 
in Saturday of last week between Messrs. Van Allen and Morfey

liach man shot at 50 targets. The contest took place on the 
ground of the Fitchburg (Alass.) club. 
Mr. Thomas Donley, of St. Thomas, Ont., under date of July 
t9, writes us as follows: "I intend holding my fifth annual 
Ournament here on October 9, 10 and 11; live birds and targets."

WESTERN TRAPS, 
St. Paal Sixth Annual. 
Chicago, 111., July 20. — The sixth annual tournament of the St. 
aiil Rod and Gun Club, of Minnesota, held last week, was a sat- 
Eactory affair, the attendance being beyond what might have been 
asonalDly anticipated. Mr. H. C. Hirschy was in charge of the 
X office, but seemed to have time enough to shoot also, and out 
of a total of 450 target.s shot at he scored 96 per cent., in spite of 
some little difficulties with a new gtm, which he had just begun to 
use. Other officers of the club who assisted in the duties of run- 
ning the shoot were Paul Gotzian, Paul Hauser and J. C. High- 
house, Two sets of expert traps were used, and the birds were 
thrown at a very stiff clip, which made the shooting hard. 
Hughes, of Palmyra, Wis., made a good second to Hirschy. In 
the Minnesota championship there were twenty-two entries, the 
trophy being won by Hirschy, who shot out McDowell a~nd Parker 
in the tie. On the second day the team shoot for the Hirschy 
trophy was pulled off, teams being entered from St. Paul, Eau 
Claire and Minneapolis, Minneapolis winning with the fine team. 
. record of 91 targets out of 100. The following are the scores in'

Garfield Gun Clufe. 
Chicago, 111, July 20.-=— The appended scores were itiade on oui- 
grounds to-day on the occasion of the fifth trophy shoot of the 
second series. W. P. Northcott carried off the honors by being the 
only one to go straight in the trophy event. Dorman and Marshall 
tied for Class B medal on 22, while Silas Palmer won Class C 
medal on 20. 
The day was too hot for comfort, and was a little too windy; 
still thirty-five shooters took part in the trophy event, and over 
forty shot in the various events of the day. It was also the oc- 
casion of the third match against La Grange Gun Giub, and the 
third successive defeat for them. We heartily wish them success 
and prosperity, as they are made of the right stuff, and we wish 
to assure them of a cordial welcome at our club always. 
Team race, six men, 25 targets:

Dr. J. W. Meek, Sec'y. 
Trap at Watson's Park. 
Chicago, 111., July 14.— The following are the scores made at 
my park to-day. While we expected more people, we presume the 
hot weather kept many away; but those who did come were 
treated to some rare birds, considering the summer weather. 
We will hold another all-day shoot on July 28, and as we will 
have plenty of good birds, we no doubt will have a much better 
crowd, and the cars will then be running to my door, so no 
more long walks: . 
Seven birds, $2 entrance: Wm. Wilburn 6, Joe Frey 3, Gus Man 
5, Dave Lloyd 5, J. M. Blockenger 6, Harry Bennett 5, Jas. Robb

Lafayette Gun Club. 
Lafayette, Ind., July 12. — There was a fair crowd out to-day to 
witness the practice shoot of our club at their beautiful shpoting 
park. The wind Was blowing directly across the traps on the start 
which made the shooting difficult. It settled down toward even- 
ing, when a most enjoyable contest set in. Our boys are practicing 
faithfully for our tournament on Aug. 8 and 9, when we look for 
a large attendance. I herewith append scores:
