The Grand Ptix du Casino at Monte Carlo. 
Saturday, Feb. 1.— The thirty-first contest for the Grand Prix 
lu Casino was brought to a conclusion this afternoon, after three 
lays' continuous shooting. Nothing could have been more agree- 
ible than the start, for Thursday was an ideal Riviera day, the sun 
hining brightly, with a pleasant breeze, wbich had a very invigo- 
rating effect upon the birds; but rain commenced to fall in the 
light, and it continued as .though likely to last. The Grand Prix 
dad, for some reason or other, evoked much more interest; than 
usual, and it was quite certain that the competitors would be far 
nore numerous than last year, when only eighty-three shot. But 
:his was quite exceptional, _ and the great drop in numbers was 
swing totbe collective abstention of the English, who agreed not 
;o shoot, owing to the death of Queen Victoria on the eve of the 
sontest. There were then about thirty English entered, but this 
»tal has been largely exceeded on the present occasion, as the 137 
competitors (so far as it is possible to make out with so many 
issumed names) about forty-three British shooters, while the Ital- 
ans mustered in about equal force, the French and Belgians making 
up nearly as many. Germany, Austria, Russia and Holland also 
liad a few representatives, but the only Spaniard shooting was 
Count O'Brien, who won two years ago. M. Guyot, the young 
Frenchman who won last year, was not in the field this time, and 
lmong other noted shots missing were M. Drevon, M. de Dorlodot, 
Count L. Gajoli, Count Voss, and Mr. Walters. However, there 
were quite enough competitors to cover the three days allowed for 
the shooting, and it was as much as ever could be done to get 
through two rounds on the first day. and as many more on the 
second, so that the prospect of finishing this evening was not a 
very rosy one, as thi ee misses only put the competitor out, al- 
though the stewards wisely decided at the close of the fifth round 
not to call up those who had missed two, as their chances were 
practically hopeless. There were 37 misses in the first round, which 
was led off by Signor Guidicini, the triple winner being among 
those who failed. The birds were not at all good at this stage, and 
in the second round on Thursday only 31 missed. The third and 
fourth rounds were shot yesterday, and the former was very fatal to 
the shooters, half of whom, 68 out of 137, missed. The birds were 
again good in the fourth round, as of the 133 who shot in it, no 
fewer than 61 missed, and the state of the poll at the end of the 
day was that 19 had killed all 4, and that 39 had killed 3 out of 4. 
It was necessarv, therefore, to make an early start this morning, 
despite the rain^ and the first shot in the fifth round was fired on 
the stroke of noon, 28 misses being registered to 115 kills. It was 
at this juncture that the stewards decided not to call up those who 
had missed twice, so that only 58 were left to shoot in the sixth 
round, and of these, 18 missed. There were only 44 left to shoot in 
the seventh round, and of these, 28 killed and 16 missed, while the 
eighth round effected a still greater clearance, as out of 34 who 
shot 15 missed, and there were only 21 left to take part in the ninth 
round. Fourteen only were qualified to compete in the tenth 
round, and the only two who missed were Signor Miola and Signor 
Lainoti, but when this round had been completed^ only three had 
killed all their birds, these being the Italians, G. Grasselli and 
Schiannini, and Mr. Wood. But nine others had made one miss, 
so that they were entitled to shoot, as in the event of the three 
others missing they would be on the same line. Mr. Radclyffe and 
Lord Rosslyn led off with kills from the right and second traps, 
but Signor Marconcini was put out by a clean miss from the second 
trap, while Signor Schiannini had bad luck, as a strong bird from 
the right trap fell dead just outside the boundary. The same fate 
befel Signor Catenacci, and then Count O'Brien put in a good 
second barrel, which stopped a bird from the fourth trap, Mr. 
Kennedy also killing with his second barrel. Mr. Wood and 
Signor Grasselli both maintained their unbeaten scores, but Mr. 
WT Blake and Mr. Roberts were both put out, the former's bird 
escaping, whereas Mr. Roberts killed his, but it dropped on the 
wrong side of the railing. This round concluded with bignor A11- 
selmi s failure, and thus seven were left to shoot in the twelfth 
round — two who had killed 11 (Signor Grasselli and Mr. Wood) 
and five who had missed only once. It was evident, therefore, that 
if one or both of the two first-named killed, the contest _ would be 
over, so far as first place was concerned. Mr. Radclyffe started 
with a miss from the fourth trap, but Lord Rosslyn killed his from 
the same trap, Signor Schiannini following suit with a bird from' 
the right trap. Signor Grasselli then stopped a not very difficult 
bird from the center trap, so that he was sure of being either first 
or second. Count O'Brien again killed from the right trap, but 
Mr. Kennedy destroyed all chance of coming in for the place 
money, and last, of all, Mr. Wood came forward to finish the 
round. It was rather a nervous moment for him, knowing, as he 
did, that if he missed, the first place was gained by Signor Gras- 
selli, and that the best he could hope for was to take the money 
for second, third or fourth, and he betrayed his precipitation by 
taking the wrong gun. But this error was soon rectified, and there 
was a silence as- he came forward to shoot. He got a very smart 
bird from the right trap, and quite failed to stop it, -so that the 
contest was over, so far as the first place was concerned, Signor 
Grasselli being the only one of the 137 competitors who had killed 
his 12. He has been shooting at Monte Carlo for many seasons, 
and killed last year 110 out of 151, while a younger brother won 
the Grand Prix upon the last occasion of its falling to the share 
of an Italian. The winner's countrymen were jubilant at the result, 
and Signor Grasselli shot so steadily that he well deserved his 
victory. Lord Rosslyn, Signor Schiannini, Count O'Brien, and 
Mr. Wood were left to shoot off the ties for second, third and 
fourth moneys, as each of the four had killed 11 out of 12. In the 
first round of the ties Lord Rosslyn and Signor Schiannini both 
killed from the fourth trap, while Count O'Brien brought his bird 
down with the second barrel from the second, Mr. Wood dropping 
his from the center trap. The four competitors all killed again in 
the next two rounds, but in the fourth Lord Rosslyn missed a fast 
bird from the fourth trap, Count O'Brien from the right, and Mr. 
Wood from the left. The three left in did not agree upon a divi- 
sion, and the next round settled the matter, as Signor Schiannini's 
bird from the fourth trap fell dead outside, while Count O'Brien 
missed his from the center trap. Mr. Wood, who was the last of 
the three to shoot, brought his bird down, but it was a very near 
thing, as the pigeon, badly hit, flew toward the stand and Jell just 
inside the railing. Mr. Wood, who had shot here four years ago. 
$Jrus became entitled to the £434 second money, the two others 
agreeing to divide the £558 for third and fourth. Scores:

second-barrel kills were made. After the live-bird troohy match, a 
miss-and-out was shot. Messrs. F. Brandreth, I. Washburn and 
G. J. Stengel divided the money on the fourth bird. Some clay

on the occasion of the shoot of the Birch Brook Gun Club, Lynn, 
Mass., the 22d inst. 
They have just completed a shooting platform covering all dis- 
tances from 14 to 22yds. which should be appreciated by shooters 
generally, and particularly by those having a tendency to "cold 
feet." 
The grounds are inclosed or* three sides by a wood, which gives 
ample protection from any possible wintry zephyrs. While not so 
stated in programme, winners of merchandise prizes will be paid 
the equivalent of same in money, if they so desire.

Boston Athletic Association Gun Ckb. 
Boston, Feb. 8. — The second shoot in the February Handicap 
of B. A. A. Gun Club was held at our club grounds this after- 
noon. 
Considering the severe handicap imposed on the gunners by the 
cold and high northwest wind, the scores do not seem so bad. 
By the way, in looking over the scores of the many gun clubs 
about Boston and the excuses made for not doing better work, 
it would seem that the elements conspire to make the trap shooters 
of this section find fault. But, as a matter of fact, we are often- 
times thankful for even this excuse. 
Messrs. Clark and Ellis, in their 500 target match, have both 
shot to date 170, and their scores stand 137 for Mr. Clark to 135 
for Dr. Ellis. The scores of the second shoot on February 
Handicap follow:

Feb. 15.— The third shoot in the B. A. A. February Handicap 
was held at the club grounds this afternoon. It was an ideal day 
for target shooting, but in spite of the excellent weather condi- 
tions, the scores as a whole were rather low. 
In the 500-target match Dr. Ellis had an off day, while Mr. 
Clark, on the other hand, has his "eagle eye" with him, breaking 
75 out of 85 shot at, to the Doctor's 61. Their scores to date are' 
G. B. Clark shot at 225 and broke 217; Dr. Ellis shot at 255 and 
broke 201.

Catchpole Gun Club. 
Wolcott, N. Y.— The regular programme for the tournament of 
the Catchpole Gun Club was postponed, as the severe snowstorms 
blocked the railroads and made it impossible for the shooters to 
get to Wolcott. Only four gentlemen from Auburn, N. Y., arrived 
here, namely, Messrs. Knapp, Knox, Tuttle and Whyte. 'the reg- 
ular programme for Feb. 12 being set aside, a series of events at 
10 and 15 targets, two moneys in 10 and three moneys in 15 target 
events, were shot. 
The day was cold and snow filled the air all day, making shooting 
not the easiest. The club expects to put on a shoot again about 
April or the first of May. Good weather is then assured. A good 
programme will be arranged.
