FOREST AND STREAM. 
(Oct. ig, zgoi. 
John Parker's Totfmament* 
There was a generous representation of the great shooters, 
among whom were Messrs. Crosby, Elliott, Courtney, Heikes, Fan- 
ning and many others, as the list oi names 'in connection with the 
scores appended will show. The tournament took place at Detroit, 
Mich., on Oct. 1, 2, 3 and 4. 
The main event of the first day was the contest for the Peters 
Cartridge Company's international handicap trophy, an event at 
25 targets. Mr. Charles Caleb, of Flint, won this event with a 
straight score. This event is No. 6 in the scores. 
Oct. U First Day. 
The live-hird shooting was commenced about 3 o'clock, as soon 
as the target events were finished. The most exciting race was a 
sweepstakes event, in which eleven were entered. Six of these — 
Heikes, Dennis, Crosby, Elliott, Fanning and Longfellow— shot in 
great form, and not one of them had missed when the event was 
called off. They had then shot at 14 birds each, while the other 
five had dropped out by one. The pigeons were not at all lively, 
however. To offset this the six cracks went back to the 36vd. mark 
before they were through, but even then they couldn't miss, and 
so divided the money. Scores at targets:

Oct. 2, Second Day. 
There was a strong wind blowing, which had the efifect of making 
erratic flights and consequently more difficult shooting. Neverthe- 
less, while the shooting as a whole fell down somewhat in per- 
centages as compared with that of yesterday, there were a number 
of excellent individual scores. 
The King Powder Company two-man team trophy contest was 
the main event of the day. It was won by Charles Caleb, of 
Flint, and Thos. Laing, of Findlay, O., who broke 23 targets each. 
Heikes made the best score of the event, 24. The teams and their 
.scores were as follows: Heikes and Crosbv, 44; Caleb and Laing, 
46; Elliott and Phil, 36; Courtney and Parker. 38; Rike and Cox, 
42; Waruf and Snow, 32; Toll and Fort, 40; Wood and Scott, 45; 
Fanning and Bates, 40; Weise and King, 30; Allen and Kirby, 39; 
Longfellow and Vermilyea, 35; Frank and Klein, 35; Marks and 
Stanley, 36. 
Live Bird Shoot, 
The live-bird shooting was better than on the first day. The 
biggest sweepstakes was between nine marksmen, and Parker, 
Marks and Bates divided the nToney after shooting 14 birds straight.

The Florists' Gun CI«b. 
WissiNOMiNC, Pa., Oct. 12. — The grand opening tournament of 
the_ Florists' Gun Club, of Philadelphia, at flying targets, held 
to-day, was a distinct success. A total of seventy-six shooters par- 
ticipated in the competition. At great expense, the club had re- 
modelled and refitted the old grounds and equipment, making all 
the details admirably complete. 
There was added money for the 50 to 70 per cent, shooters, and 
high and low average moneys. There were twelve events on the 
programme, at 10, 15 and 20 targets. Rose system, class shoot- 
ing, with different ratios and liberal divisions to a degree that he 
who could not win something was a poor shoot indeed. Targets, 
at 1^2 cents, were included in all entrances, the latter varying from 
25 cents to $1,

OsSiNiNG, N. Y. — Herewith please find the scores of the Ossining 
Gun Club, made at the regular weekly shoot, Oct. 12. This was the 
first day of medal shooting, and some fair scores were made. A. 
Bedell made 15 straight as scratch man. The only other 15 was 
made by I. T. Washburn, who is acceded two targets in Class A. 
Several new guns put in an appearance to-day — a good sign. 
While one of the squads was shooting a flock of fourteen quai! 
fiew across the grounds and settled on a knoll about 30yds. from 
the score, in full view of the shooters. It was a pretty, as well as 
a tantalizing, sight. Two dogs were worked out toward them, the 
birds squatting to a fine point by both dogs. The scores f

Alton, 111. — An interesting live-bird match was shot on Oct. 6 at 
Dnpont Park, St. Louis, between Harold Money and John 
t'abanne. Cabanne was the challenger, the conditions being 50 live 
bird."? per man, at 30yds. rise, for a purse of $50 per side, loser pay- 
ing for the birds. The day was fairly good, and the birds proved 
more than an average lot, there being not a single sitter, and 
neither flush nor balls were used. Money, who had not shown 
especially good form in the preliminary practice work, steadied 
dcwn into splendid form, killing his birds in perfect time and doing 
nearly all the important work with the first barrel. He cleaned up 
his string of 50 straight, and had not a single scratch in the race, 
("abanne. on the other hand, was evidently not up to his ordinary 
speed, and manifestly labored under a disadvantage from the start. 
Hr lost his fourth bird, a straightaway driver from No. 4 trap, and 
in the first string also the nineteenth, twenty-second and twenty- 
filth, while in the second string he dropped the first, twenty-second 
and twenty-fifth. He had bad luck on three of his lost birds, his 
gun failing to work properly in ejecting the shell for the second, 
shot. The scores: 
Money 21222112222122111222122222221122221222111121212212—50

An unusually spirited contest was shot at St. Louis for the 
Dupont trophy on the 6th. This fine medal, introduced by Dave 
lilliott nearly a year ago, had done much to popularize live-bird 
. shooting in that city, and fifteen to tv/enty entries can be counted 
on as a certainty at the semi-monthly contests. The scores in the 
original race on this occasion were: Dr. Gaines 9, Bowman 9, Her- 
!)ert 7. Rock 9, Dr. Smith 10, Crosby 8, Spencer 10, Eastman 10, 
CSbanne 10, Dr. Sims 10, Weber 9, Pendy 9, Fink 9 Baggerman 9. 
.lonah 10, Dr. Ball 7, Fuller 7. In the shoot-off, m!ss-and-out. Dr. 
Smith won on 19 straight. Spencer being next high with 18 to his 
credit. 
A match at 100 live birds has been on the tapis for some time 
between Dr. J. W. Smith and Harold Money, but since Harold 
cleaned up his 50 straight in the race with Cabanne the Doctor 
lias not been anxious to push the matter. Still there are very few 
men who can count on defeating Dr. Smith when he is at his best, 
and he has been doing splendid work during the present season. 
Should he decide to shoot this race it will be a close and very 
interesting contest, at short odds. 
The boys of the Carrollton, 111., Gun Club gave a successful two- 
day open target tournament, on Oct. 10 and 11. Attendance 
averaged about twenty, mostly local shooters, Fred Schiess, /of 
Alton, making the high one-day average. 
The Meredosia, 111., Gun Club will give a target shoot and all- 
<lay fish fry at its grounds, on the banks of the Illinois River, on 
Oct. 23. 
The Taylorville, HI., Gun Club will hold a iwo-day amateur 
tourney on Oct. 23 and 24; targets only; Sergeant system; 180 shots 
per day. 
A two-day target and live-bird shoot is announced by the 
Streator, 111., Gun Club for the 24th and 25'th insis. ; 175 targets and 
17 live bird? are on the card for each day. Good accommodations, 
and nobody barred. 
The gun club at Attica, Ind., will shoot targets and live birds, 
and entertain all comers at its model grounds on the 23d and 24th 
insts. One hundred and seventy-five targets . dail>-, and live bu-ds 
to shoot. Chas. B. Lamme, _ secretary, will furnish any information 
desired. 
Unless heavy rainfalls come within a few days, the fall duck 
flight will net no shooting in this portion of the big basin. The 
long, continued drouth has left every lake and shiugh dry, and 
the birds will either hurry across this stretch of usually good terri- 
tory or go by some other route. The same has been true of our 
fall snipe shooting, very few of the birds being killed by even the 
persi-stent, wideawake hunters who have beaten the most likely 
ground. KiLLMORE.
