WSTERN TRAPS* 
Jtfbilee in the "West. 
C'HtcAoo, in.. Nov. 2.— There is a general jubilation in tlic West 
ver the news of the location of the CJrand American Handicap in 
902. There is Httlc reason to doubt that the total entry at Kansn.s 
Zity next spring will closely rival that of tlie big event in its 
>ast years in the East. Whether it will be as nearly a national 
vent as before is a hazard of opinion, of course; for it is scarcely 
o be suppcsed that the Eastern men will come to Kan.sas City 
n the same ratio of population a.s the West has contributed to the, 
ntrj' at Interstate Park. L^pon the other hand, there will "ije more 
Vestern shooters who can visit Kansas City than were ever ab!e 
o visit New York. Among these wil] be many younger shooters 
if that growing class wliich it is the aim of the" schools of trap- 
hooting to reach. As to the quanti'ty and quality of the enter- 
aimnent to be met with at Kansas City in this big annual fixture, 
here need be no doubt whatever on the part of any man, live lie 
Cast or West, Xorlh or South. There is only one thing to do, and 
h.it is to conic to the Handicap. Kansas City is the shootingest 
own of its size on the face of the footstool, and there is not a no- 
iccount man inside her confines. The hotel accommodations will 
»e good, the pigeons will be better than can be found at that lati- 
ude anywhere in America, the grounds will be run properly, and 
■verything will show that Kansas City knows how to handle a big 
rap shoot just as well as a smaller or middle-sized one. There 
ivill be a hot time on the banks of the Kaw. 
Prospects for the Chicago Handicap. 
Mr. C. K. Stephens, of Moline, III., vice-president of the Illinois 
^tate Sportsmen's Association, writes under date of Nov. 1 that he 
has secured fortj'-eight signatures of the "big guns" of the shooting 
world to enter the proposed %100 handicap at Watson's Park early 
in December. He says he think.s he can get one hundred, all 
right, and believes that a week more will enable him to tell in re- 
gard to the matter. This would be a warm proposition, and it is 
truly to be hoped that the boys will rally to the support of Mr. 
Stephens in his big undertaking here, which will jar the firmament 
for some surrounding parasangs. E. Hough.

The day was a perfect one for shooting, being warm and pleas- 
ant, and just enough southwest breeze blowing across the traps 
to make the birds lively — ^and they were lively, being by far the 
best lot of birds I have seen trapped this season:

ON LONG ISLAND. 
Creamer-Morfey vs. Ramapo-Banks. 
Interstate Park, L. T., Oct. 30. — -There was a good attendance 
of sportsmen to witness the friendly match between the two-man 
teams, whose metnbers were the popular and skillful sportsmen 
cx-Sheri1? Frank D. Creamer and T. W. Morfey against C. A. 
"Ramapo'' and Ed. Banks. It was a close and interesting race. 
At the end of the tenth round Banks-Ramapo were 2 in the lead; 
at the end of the fifteenth round they were 1 in the lead, but 
lc.?ing 3 from the fifteenth to the finish, while their opponents 
killed straight, made the score 45 to 43 in favor of Creamer and 
Morfey. 
Mr. Creamer, who was shooting a new, beautiful Daly gun, 
shot in fine form, catching his birds quickly, and centering them 
with rare precision. His fine score of 24 out of 25 no doubt had 
much to do with winning the match, Morfey drew the hardest 
birds by far, and the luck of the draw was decidedly against him. 
The weather was exceedingly pleasant. The sun shone warm 
and bright; a soft, thin blue haze toned down the light, and there 
was almost a perfect calm. The birds were an excellent lot. They 
started from the traps quickl)-, but there being no wind to help 
them they could not well escape the skillful shooters on the matter 
of speed; but they were strong and vigorous, and required hard 
hitting to keep them from struggling out of bounds. It was a 
handicap race. Several other events were shot. The scores.
