Filch btirg vs. Leominster. 
Fitchburg, Mass., Atig. 22. — Fitchburg wins the cup. 
the third of the series for the Damon & Gould Co. cup, by the 
ten-men teams from Fitchburg and Leominster was shot yesterday 
afternoon. ' 
This was a general "dog day" — cloudy, hot and sultry, but a 
pretty good shooting day after, all, except it was very cloudy and 
dark when the last string was shot, making it very hard to see a 
low bird. The conditions of this shoot were ten men on a side, 50 
blue rocks to a man, three wins to take the cup, the club winning 
it to put it up next season as an individual trophy, the man win- 
ning it to hold it forever. As Fitchburg had won the two previous 
shoots, they wei-e anxious to make it "three straight." When 
the day of the match arrived, we foutrd that four of our best men 
were out of town, and their places had to be filled by men, three 
of whom were new at matcli shooting, but every man took his 
,eun, shells and "nerve" and went down to Leominster and won 
tlie shoot just as though that were the only thing to do, thus mak- 
ing it "three straight" for Fitchburg. 
The scores : . 
Fitchburg. Leominster.
