Mr. John Parker, of 'the Peters Powder and Cartridge Company, 
took charge of the shoot Monday afternoon, and has successfully 
conducted one of the largest shoots ever held in the State with- 
out a hitch and to the outspoken satisfaction of all. The New 
York State Association is very fortunate in securing Mr. Parker's 
services as manager for their tournament next month. 
The annual meeting of the Association was held in the Arling- 
ton, the headquarters, Wednesday, President James O'H. Denny 
presiding. There were thirty-nine clubs in the Association repre- 
sented by delegates or by proxy. The election resulted as follows: 
President, J. O'H. Denny, Ligonier; Vice-President, John Wilson, 
Franklin; Treasurer, J. H. Warden, Harrisburg; Secretary, J. M. 
Runk, Chambersburg; Corresponding Secretary, A. B. Cartledge, 
Philadelphia. 
The next tournament will be held at Philadelphia under the 
auspices of the Florists' Gun Club. 
In the regular events, the entrance was based on ten cents per 
target. The State officers of the Association were duly assisted 
by the officers of the Oil City Gun Club, Messrs. A. " Smedley, 
president, and F. S. Bates, secretary. Mr. Hugh Dilworth, the 
cashier, was eminently efficient. 
Raleigh Gun Club. 
Raleigh, N. C, May 15.— Our regular weekly shoot was held 
to-day at the club grounds. Although not a very large attendance, 
most of the enthusiastic members were present and enjoyed the 
shoot just the same. We are looking forward to the Interstate 
Association shoot to be held on our grounds June 25 and 26, with 
a great deal of pleasure, and we have several members that will 
shoot well, beside the representatives that will attend, and they 
had better look out. The programme for this shoot will be out 
in a few days:

Chattanooga Trapshootets' Club. 
Chattanooga, Tenn.— At the tournament of the Chattanooga- 
lrapshooters' Club, in regard to the number of entries for a one i 
day s shoot, some better might have been done, but for a royally -1 
good time few ever succeed better. From the expressions of the) 
visitors we must believe that every one enjoyed himself to the 
limit. A jollier crowd of genuine sportsmen seldom ever meet 
every one seeming to act as a committee of one to make the day 
as pleasant as possible, and now we regret we could not have 
made it two or three days instead of one. 
Among the visitors was a good quartet from Nashville— Legler/ 1 
Shields Carter and Rose; Jar, of Bowling Green, Ky.; Bachfll 
man, of Bristol, and McCartney, of Ft. Payne, Ala. 
Legler won high average, with O'Connell second, both usine 
Parker guns and Ideal loads. 
In addition to the $50 added by the club, the Peters Cartridge 
Company, with their characteristic generosity, donated $10, which < 
was added to the purses. 
Events 5 and. 10 were the handicap events at distance, assigned i 
by a committee sonsistmg of Legler, Jar and Bachman who did 
their work well and to the satisfaction of every one. 
A brisk wind blowing toward the traps juggled the targets in a 
way that would put a Jap out of business, and made straight 
scores scarce until the afternoon, when it calmed somewhat. Fol- ' 
lowing are the scores:

Shields and Carter point a gun pretty well for men of their age, 
both being three-score years. 
We never saw Charlie Harris quite so well pleased as when he 
found nearly every one using Ideal loads, and when they won 
first and second places-he even gave away his favorite Egyptian 
cigarettes. 
O'Connell kept busy all day. When not at the score he looked 
after the office force, and then shot well enough to win second 
place. 
Woodworth was the life of the crowd. What he was shy at the 
score he made up in the grand stand. 
The necessity of practice is very evident in Ctireton's score. 
He has been out of town, with no opportunity for practice this 
season. In our last year's tournament he won the gold medal, 
high average for the two days] scoring only a few less than 
Trimble, . 
Woodworth and Harris shot a one-leg match, a one-arm match 
and sitting down, all of which Harris won. In the one-leg match 
Charlie went straight. O'Connell suggested he could make money 
shooting standing on one leg. Handicap.

New York State Shoot. 
Reasons why all friends of the shotgun should particpate in 
this year's tournament, to be held at Rochester, June 9 to 13, both 
inclusive: 
Because the Rochester Rod and Gun Club's facilities are first- 
class, and its reputation for giving high grade entertainments is 
second to note. 
Because amateurs are given an even chance with professional 
experts and paid representatives. 
Because none but amateurs will be allowed to participate in the 
merchandise event, in which there are between $800 and $900 worth 
of prizes, such as L. C. Smith and Lefever $80 guns, Turner-Reich 
binocular field glass, sterling range, Mullin's "Get There" duck 
boat, etc., etc. 
Because all residents of the State may compete in the State 
events, though paid representatives and professional experts can 
share only in first and second moneys. 
Because the Grand Handicap gives exceptional opportunities to 
win fine prizes, such as a $100 Parker hammerless gun, Spalding 
chainless bicycle, Stearns bicycle, and Peerless sewing machine. ' 
Entrance $2.50, targets included. Handicaps 14 to 22yds. 
Because every one is welcome to shoot in the sweepstakes, 
though paid representatives and professional experts can share 
only in first and second moneys. 
Because the magautraps will be in charge of Mr. Chas. North, 
of the Chamberlin Target Company, which is ah assurance that 
they will work perfectly. 
Because some of the best squad hustlers in the State will make 
it a "continuous performance." 
Because you get the best of meals and all refreshments right 
or. the ground at down town prices. 
Because the shoot proper will be in charge of Mr. John Parker, 
whose popularity and ability as a manager of such affairs is un- 
questionable. 
For further particulars see official programme, which will be 
mailed upon application to F. E. McCord, secretary, 85 Main 
street. East, Rochester, N. Y. Had.

Some weeks ago Forest and Stream published a denial, made 
to us by Mr. Paul North, in respect to a rumor, the substance of 
which was that the Chamberlin Cartridge and Target Company 
was hostile to live-bird shcoting at the traps, and was furnishing 
aid in legislative lobbies to suppress it. Elsewhere in our trap 
columns this week the aforesaid company enters a formal denial 
of these rumors, and this should place the matter at rest for all 
time.
