Dean Richmond Tfophy. 
As there seems to be -a general lack of definite information con- 
cerning this great trophy of the New York State Association for the 
Protection of Fish and Game, we have taken some pains to ob- 
tain the conditions governing it. In the convention records of the 
meeting held at Batavia, N. Y., in 1873, we find the first official 
record of it as follows: 
At this convention the first Dean Richmond Cup was presented, 
through the Dean Richmond Club, of Batavia, by Henry Rich- 
mond, Esq., son of Dean Richmond, so well known in the history 
of our State. It was of sterling silver, about twenty inches in 
height. The bowl was oblong, supported by an ornam'ental stand- 
ard resting upon a square base. On either side of the pedestal were 
■chiseled two Nimrods, one in the act of aiming his breech-loader, 
and the other in the act of charging his muzzle-loader. The lower 
half of the bowl is chased with designs of leaves. Perched upon' 
the rim are pigeons, and immediately above the rim, in front, is 
'a medallion portrait of the venerable Dean Richmond, whose 
name it bears. On the reverse are engraved, within a wreath, the 
words "Dean Richmond Cup, 1873." Its value is about $800. and it 
was presented upon the following terms: "To be competed for by 
teams of three from each club entering therefor, and the club 
making the best total to retain the cup until the next cotivention. 
The club winning it to give proper security for its production the 
following j'ear. The club winning it three times to become its 
absolute owner. The entrance fee of each club to be ?30. The 
■proceeds of the year 1873 to belong to the Dean Richmond Club, 
and after that to be deposited as a cup fund, to purchase another 
'.trophy when the first shall have been finally won by any club. 
The Dean Richmond Club to surrender all right to the cup on 
the signing of an agreement to the above effect by the president of 
the State Association on behalf of that body" The cup was ac- 
cepted upon these terms, and the agreement was signed by the 
president by authority of the Association. The cup. was the sub- 
ject of contest during the year 1S73, and succeeding vears, to 
and including 1877, and was finally, in that year, won by'the For- 
ester Club, of Buffalo. By that time the Cup Fund amounted to 
$1,150, with which the present Dean Richmond Trophy was pur- 
chased. 
In the. records of the convention held at Buflfalo, 1878, under 
the auspices of the Forester Club, the cup is again officially re- 
ferred to, as follows: 
The Dean Richmond Cup having been previouslv won by the 
Forester Club, of Buffalo, the treasurer reported that he had re- 
ceived from contests for that emblem, $1,150. and that this amnimt 
had been expended in the purchase of a new cup or trophy. The 
conditions of the competition for the second trophy varied from 
those of the first. The secretary, Mr. John B. Sage." reported that 
he had been through the State and conversed with the leading 
members of clubs, all of whom favored the proposed change of 
terms, which he recommended should be as follows: "The Dean 
Richmond Trophy to be open to clubs belonging to the State 
Association; to be held by the winning club, each year, in trust, 
to be accounted for to the State Association the following year; 
to be shot for by club teams of three members each, residents 
of the county in which the club is located; twenty single birds to 
each contestant at twenty-one j'ards rise, in accordance with the 
rule of the New York .State Association; entrance $30, and the 
sum of the entrance money to go to the winning club making the 
highest score in the contest." Mr. W. J. Babcock, of Rochester, 
■moved that the conditions be amended by increasing the number 
in each team from three to fifteen, but this proposed amendment 
was rejected, and the recommendations of Mr. Sage were adopted. 
The present Dean Richmond Trophy was, therefore, the subject of 
contest at this convention of 1878 for the first time. It is a sterling 
BiK'cr punch bowl of elegant proportions and magnificent capacity, 
being in diameter about twenty inches, and in height from base 
to apex about thirty inches. 
The outside metal is frosted, and the lining is of Roman gold. 
The base tapers upward from the lion head and paws which sup- 
port it to the bottom of the receptacle devised for the juice of the 
grapes which emblematically are suspended from the vines en- 
twined around its curved handles. 
Symbolical figures in relief rest upon the pedestal and upon the 
rim. 
The cap or cover is elaborately turned, moulded and chased. 
On one side encircled by a wreath is a medallion of the donor of 
the original cup for which this was substituted, and whose name it 
retains. Surmounting the entire piece is a finely proportioned 
model of a sportman in the act of taking aim. 
At the 28th convention, held in Rochester, Mr. John B. Sage, 
who had been appointed at the prior convention to obtain the con- 
sent of Henry A. Richmond, of Buffalo, to shoot at other things 
than live pigeons for the Dean Richmond Cup, reported that the 
desired consent could not be obtained. 
At the 32d annual convention, held at Lyons, N. Y., June 12, 
1890, there was a lengthy debate concerning the Dean Richmond 
Trophy. Some held that the conditions should be changed in so 
'far as to compete for it under American Association rules, and that 
the entrance be reduced from' $30 to $15. There was a discussion 
thereupon in respect to whether the cup was the property of the 
donor, Mr. Richmond, or the association. A committee was ap- 
pointed to call upon Mr. Richmond and learn from him the 
status of the cup's ownership, and to arrange the conditions under 
which it would be competed for at the next State meeting. 
At the 33d convention, held at Rome, N. Y., June 16, 1891, Mr. 
Sage stated that a club could be represented by only one team for 
the Dean Richmond Trophy. Rule 2, pertaining to the manner 
of holding the gun — that is, guns below the elbow — ^was changed 
so that the gun could be held in any position at the pleasure of 
the shooter. 
The following, signed by Mr. Henry L. Gates, of Utiea, N. Y., 
appeared in Forest and Stream of April 6, 1895: 
Utica, N. Y., March 25. — ^At a recent meeting of the Com- 
mittee on Rules, of the New York State Association for the 
Protection of Fish and Game, held at Albany, some important 
changes in the shooting rules were agreed upon to govern the 
1895 tournament at Saratoga. To avoid uncertainty and save 
disputes, it was agreed to adopt the American Shooting Asso- 
ciation Rules to govern both target and live bird contests. Cut 
the following special rules out and paste them in your copy of 
American Shooting Association Rules, and you will thus have 
a copy of the New York Rules for 1895. It was found necessary 
to adopt some special rules to meet conditions existing here, and 
the following were agreed upon: 
Target Shooting. 
American Association Rules _ shall govern where they do not 
conflict with the following special rules: 
Rule 1. The rapid-firing system shall be used, targets being 
thrown from known traps at unknown angles, ana the angles to 
be changed after each target is thrown. 
Rule 2. In ordinary sweepstake events, the management may 
permit 10-gauge guns to stand at 16 yards, but in all State events 
10-gauge guns must stand at 18 yards, and shoot in separate squads. 
Rule 3. No person shall be eligible to shoot on any team con- 
testing for the team championship at inanimate targets unless he 
shall be — First. An actual bona fide citizen of the State of New 
York. Second. He shall have been at least thirty days a member 
of the club which he shall represent. Third. He shall be an actual 
bona fide resident of the county in which said club has its principal 
headquarters. If any club shall allow any person to shoot on a 
team not able to comply with all of the above requisites, such team 
shall forfeit its entrance money and all rights in the match, and be 
subject to such penalties' as the Association may prescribe. No 
moneys shall be paid over, or any trophy be awarded, if a protest 
shall be made by any team contesting, until the same shall be de- 
cided, and the tournament president shall determine how the pro- 
test shall be considered and decided. 
Live Bird Shooting. 
American Shooting Association Rules shall govern when they 
do not conflict with the following soecia! rules: 
Rule 1. If any member of a team contesting for the Dean Rich- 
mond trophy shall be disqualified from shooting for any cause under 
the rules, after he shall have fired at one or more birds in tlie 
contest, the team of which he is a member shall forfeit all rights 
and also their entrance money. 
Rule 2. Conduct. No person who acts in an unsportsmanlike 
manner, or who is intoxicated, or who persists in making himself 
disagreeable to contestants and management, or who wDfuily insists 
upm violating the rules of this association, shall be permitted on 
the grounds of this association, or participate in any contest on 
its grounds. 
Rule 3. Birds Alighting. Any bird shot at (with either one 
or both barrels), with sufficient life to light on a fence, tree or 
cut-building, and close its wings, shall be declared a lost bird. 
Rule 4. No person shall be eligible to shoot on any team con- 
testing for the Dean Richmond trophy unless he shall be, first.

adjoining thereto. If any club shall allow any person to shoot on 
a team not able to comply with all of the above retiuisites, such 
team shall forfeit its entrance money and all rights in the match, 
and be subject to such other ijenalties as the association may 
prescribe. 
No moneys shall be paid over or any trophy be awai-ded if a 
protest shall be made by any team contesting until the same shall 
be decided, and the tournament president shall determine how 
the protest shall be considered and decided. 
Rule 5. Dean Richmond trophy, value $1,150. Shall be held by 
-the winning club each year in trust, to be accounted for to the 
.State Association, to be shot for by three members of a club be-

mediately adjoining thereto, as provided in rule 4. Fifteen single 
live birds to each contestant. Entrance fee $20 per team. The 
team making the highest score shall win the "trophy" and 60 per

Interstate Association at Auburn, 
Auburn, i\le. — The Interstate Association's tournament, given 
for the Aul'iurn (Me.) Gun Club, was a distinct success. 
The tournament was arranged by the manager of the Inter- 
state Association, Mr. Elmer E. Shaner. 
On Wednesday 12,475 targets were thrown, and the same itumber 
of shells exploded. 
On Thursday 8,000 targets were Sprung, and the same number of 
shells exploded. 
Mr. Shaner has had every sort of a care over it all and so have 
the Auburn Gun Club boys. It has been a credit to all concerned, 
and if any compliinents were to be passed, they should go to all 
alike, for all have been as one. 
Cashier Joly has been the ideal official, and everyone says a good 
word for the doctor. 
Wednesday, Aug. 2\, First Day. 
Neal was high', with 171 out of 175, for the first day. Preble was 
.second. 
The opening day of the shoot ha^l admirable weather — clear and 
bright, with a fresh breeze. The grounds are pleasantly situated 
upon a hill top. Tt is said to be one of the best arranged and 
most convenient grounds in the country. All is praise for the 
Auburn Gun Club and the royal manner in, ■which they are en- 
tertaining these out-of-town visitors. 
Three sets of traps are run, the event No. 1 (of 15 birds) being 
from the expert traps at known angles, squads of five shooting, 
while event No. 2, of 20 birds, is from the Magan traps at un- 
known angles. Stevens, the caterer, served dinner in the tent. 
On the grounds were a score or more of ladies, while, all told, 150 
persons were present at the opening of the shoot. 
Among the "crack" shots who were gunning for the "clay 
saucers" yesterday were E. C. Griffith, Pascoag, R. I. "Jack" 
Fanning, of San Francisco, too, is one of the crack-a-jacks of 
America. B. Leroy Woodv/ard is one of the best marksmen in 
the business. O. R. Dickey, who was the handicap in Boston in 
1896; W. L. Colville, who represents the Dupont powder people; 
B. H. Norton, of New York, who represents Hazard powder, and 
Lambert. 
The Waterville squad consists of S. A. Green, Samuel L. Preble, 
Dana P. Foster, Walter Reed and "Stobey." Besides the Water- 
ville regular squad. Dr. Dwinell and Davidson, of that city, ar- 
rived on the grounds to carry off their share of the honors. 
Then there is Bath, which is well represented at the shoot, 
Geo. Thompson heads the team from the ship-building city, and 
will get his share of the birds. A group of Montreal guns are 
here, while all the old-timers of the Lewiston and Auburn teams 
are in the procession.

Thursday, Aag. 22, Second Day, 
Concerning the management, the Lewiston Journal, of Aug. 22, 
published the following: "At precisely 2.30 and a fraction on Wed- 
nesday afternoon. Manager Elmer E. Shaner, chief pusher of the 
Interstate Gun Club meet now in progress at the Auburn Gun 
Club premises, near the Lewiston and Auburn Covmtry Clvib, 
took his specially selected cambric from the unknown angle of his 
shirt collar, stowed it a-way in his left hip trap pocket and — the 
great interstate meet of the gun clubs of U. S. A., under the 
auspices of our enterprising Auburn Gun Club, was an assured 
success. 
"Just a word right here about Manager Shaner and his abilities 
to annihilate the peculiar and constant difficulties of a meet of this 
nature. It was about as much sport to sit and -watch him put the 
'events' through their paces at any moment of Wednesday's 
shoot as it was to witness the feats of the marksmen themselves. 
'Say,' said one of the noted 'professionals' present Wednesday, 'I 
wish you wo-jld just put it down for me that Shaner is a hustler 
from the word go. There isn't a better man in the country to 
handle a big shoot like this.' And we will stake our judgment 
that there isn't. He just made the guns do a continuous pop-corn 
cake walk from 9.30 through the entire day, and when the faint 
echoes of the 6 o'clock mill bells came up from the city, the entire 
10 events of the first day's shoot had been finished, and there was 
time to sit down and ta'lk it all over before taking the personally 
conducted buckboard for the Elm House." 
Mr. Stobie finished with a string 'of 20 straight, losing 12 birds 
to-day and 13 yesterday, and beating Hunnewell for the honors of 
"High Gun" by exactly one bird in the two days' events. 
Neal, high gun of the first day, missed three out of the first 
event at fixed angles, and dropped five more on the next, event, 
two on the next, two on the next, and two on the sixtii, making 
fourteen misses on the first 105 birds. The scores: 
Programme events had a total of 175 targets.
