Pigfeon Shooting at Savannah* 
Editor Forest and Stream: 
"L'homme propose et Dieu dispose" — and so it happened that 
■When, during the sultry summer months, a happy thought came to 
Dr. francis Cheatham Wilson, of Savannah, prompting him to give 
a private social shooting affair in the Forest City, he simply went 
about it in that quiet, easy manner, so thoi-oughly characteristic of 
the man who says but little, yet accomplishes so much. 
It had occurred to the Doctor that a nice little shooting match 
could be arranged without blast of trumpet, screeching fife or beat- 
ing drurrt,- so he politely invited a few of his friends to gather 
abotit hi*fi- and try conclusions on Dec. 2 and 3, and sure enough 
some of them responded, only too glad to have the opportunity 
of obeying the gracious summons of so distinguished and amiable 
a host. 
There was but one feature of the whole affair that in a measure 
mafred, for a time at least, the sport, and as the Doctor could not 
csfitrol that, why, we bear him no grudge. On the first day^ the 
w6afher was gloomy and threatening from the very start. Great 
elouds hung low and forbidding, culminating in a nasty drizzling 
rain, diverted only by heavier showers. So, instead of shooting 
out the entire programme, OHe event had to ga until next day. 
On the third, instead of wet we had wind — lots of good, strong 
wind — the kind that carries many a pigeon out of even a 50yd. 
boundary, to say nothing of the ones we used here — a scant 30yds. 
But, as will be seen by the scores, every one held a pretty straight 
gun, and while the shooting was quite difficult, especially on the 
set of traps' to the left, clean scores were of frequent occurrence. 
To hold a pigeon match in Savannah means more, much more, of 
an undertaking that it would in many another place, because 
traps, boundaries and all the paraphernalia which go to make up 
a pigeon ground had to be furnished and put up by the host, so 
as there were two sets of traps, etc.j it can easily be understood 
that some outlay of money and personal supervision had to be 
given to the undertaking: and here again is where those quiet, 
easy-going men, who say Httle, but do much, excel. 
The two sets of traps were at right angles to each other, and tlie 
boundaries had been cut down to 30j'ds., and in handicap events 
rise was from 27 or 28 to 32yds; in all other matches, even dis- 
tance at 30yds. prevailed. In the matter of prizes there were five 
in all— two beautiful silver loving cups, two extremely handsome 
pieces of plate and an exquisite oil painting of a wood duck, by 
the celebrated artist, sportsman and gentleman, Mr. Hal. Mor- 
rison, of Atlanta, who generously donated this prize. A small 
reddish spot on the breast of this beautiful duck told the tale but 
too well, and knowing the warm-hearted and kind man whose 
gentle hands executed this little red slam, it is easy to conceive 
that a pang went through his heart even at so mock a wound! 
As is usually the case in cup competitions of thi^ kind, the value 
thereof is deducted from the ptirse; this is the customary style. 
Some men abhor usual and customary ways, having ideas of their 
own. The Doctor is of this kind; so, in spite of traditions, modes 
and precepts, he simply announced that in this case a departure 
would be made from the beaten track and that it was 'his inten- 
tion to put up these prizes himself, all of which was done in so 
off-hand and free-hearted a manner that the Doctor's face beamed 
with delight at having made the announcement. Indeed, an on- 
looker would have supposed he himself had been presented with an 
entire silversmith's stock! 
Beware of these quiet, easy-going men; they do ?uch original, 
unlooked for and unexpected things. 
Another thing, ^len who frequent tournaments, and whose mis- 
fortune it is to get hungry at about midday, know but too well what 
the prehistoric chestnut of "lunch served on the grounds" means. 
We have all been there, and so has the Doctor. So to keep things 
^ en tenue with the rest he had a regular course dinner served 
every day, which would have done credit to any hotel, besides 
which cigars and refreshments were spread during the whole time. 
This part of the- programme was. the Doctor's picnic, and along 
with prizes and trophies, went with Dr. Wilson's comgliments. 
So we said, "How, Doctor," and thanks, and he was delighted; 
glad because we enjoyed ourselves, and glad because we were 
there. 
Those quiet men you katSw do not say much. When a gun club 
or manufacturer of ammunition, etc., gives a tournament, there is 
always a string or a cable to it somewhere. It is either with a 
view of replenishing the treasury of the one or advertising the 
wares of the others. There is nothing reprehensible in this— not a 
bit of it. Only those who care to, need attend ; but, nevertheless, 
it is business. It is ducats. Here, on the other hand, is a pro- 
fessional man in high standing, who, out of the goodness of his 
heart, goes to great labor and expense to simply entertain his 
friends, enjoy their company and hear their guns crack. Surely 
there is something noble in this and sportsmanlike; in other 
words it is an anomaly in pigeon shooting — i. e., one without a 
rake-off! So to in an infinitessimal manner show our appreciation 
and to bear witness of our gratitude, love and esteem for our 
worthy host, a silver waiter, bearing our names, was presented, to 
him by our esteemed comrade, Col. Thomas. Martin, who in a 
very appropriate speech made the presentation. With three rous- 
ing cheers and a gurgling sensation in our throats we shook hands 
with . the quiet man from the Forest City, the typical Southern 
gentleman who says so little, still does so much, and of whom we 
are all so proud.

The scoring during both days was done on one blackboard by 
Mr. J. W. Ryalls, and the writer is bound to state that he ha'; 
never seen that man's equal, calling up each contestant to hi'; 
respective trap, scoring result of shot and not making an error 
in both days. 
After the picnic was over on Dec. 4 Dr. Wilson shot a match 
with Mr H. Mason Clapp, resulting in the Doctor's favor, as will 
be seen by examining the scores: 
jVIatch at 100 pigeons, for $100 a side and the birds, between Dr.

Regarding the birds trapped in this /match, the writer will say 
this: Anything above 90 would have been a very good score even 
in a 50yd boundary, and never in his life has he seen as high a 
.score as the_ Doctor made, all things being con.sidered. The entire 
lot of 2op pigeons were selected as being the very best birds out 
of the whole number of 2,300 provided for the tournament. There 
were not over half a dozen easy birds in all; besides, being a dark 
gloomy day, these slate-colored and dark blue pigeons were hard 
to see and more difficult still to kill, going at the pace thev did 
on so short a boundary. 
Another match between these gentlemen is booked, and will 
■come off toward the middle of this month. I venture to say that 
iVlr. Clapp will make a much better showing, while I very much 
doubt any one s ability to do better than the Doctor did on that 
■day. It was a grand performance. 
Dr. Wilson shot a Parker pigeon gun, Winchester factory-loaded 
I^eader shells, and Dupont powder. Mr. Clapp shot a Francotte 
gun. hand-loaded shells and Ballistite. Gaucho. 
St. Paal Review Cap, 
MiNNEAPOi,is, Minn., Dec. 8.— The shoot for the H. C. Hirschv 
hve-bird championship of the Northwest, which occurs on these 
grounds next Friday 13th inst., is causing unusual interest among 
the shooters of the Twin Cities. On account of the shortness of 
the time between settling the date and shooting the event, it is 
possible that the Eau Claire contingent (at which place Mr. 
Hirschy won the cup from Kid Moon on Nov. 30) will be nearlv 
Ihe^ only outside shooters in the event this time. The conditions 
under which the cup is shot for are $15 entrance, birds included' 
TOoney divided accordmg to the number of shooters. 
The St. Paul Review cup shoot to-day brought out a good crowd 
aixty-five birds being shot at by ten shooters before one was 
missed. Herewith find the score, Mr. Morrison winning the cup 
again with 25 straight: ^

GtJn Clufa Stoot at Woodlafee, Neb. 
VVooDLAKE, Neb. — The fourth weekly shoot of (he gun club was 
held Dec. 10 at 1 o'clock, and about twenty persons present seemed 
to hugely enjoy the contest for the golcf championship medal. 
There were six shooters in to-day's line, and mncli enthusiasm was 
manifested. 
A six-inch fall of "the beautiful" might have discouraged the 
members of many clubs, but in this case only caused a greater at- 
tendance. The day was exceedingly gloomy, and in consequence 
the usual scores were much varied. None of the contestants shot 
as well as formerly. 
Mr. Walter Parker enjoyed his initial shoot. Before arriving 
on the club grounds he had announced his intention to powder all 
targets thrown, but after the first 10 had safely landed in a bank 
of ■ the beautiful" the contestants breathed easier, while the 
audience screamed and howled. Mr. John Day stated that he in- 
tended to wear the medal on a visit to a nearby town ,next day, 
but he failed to account for eleven of the mysterious flyers. 
After the next shoot a Class B medal will be used by the club 
to add to the present great interest manifested. 
Following are the scores, each man shooting at 25 targets: Le Roi 
Leach 15, John Day 14, William Chrysler 11. Frank Day 10, Walter 
Parker 6, Cyrus Hagen 4. Leach Sec'y.
