Go to Sioux City. 
tjuite a bunch of the boys will go to Sioux City, in the hope that 
the villains will not pursue them there quite so successfully as they 
do here. It is believed, however, that Iowa is in a bad fix, so far 
-•is live-bird shooting is concerned. 
Favors San Antonio for the Handicap. 
Mr. W. Fred Cjuimby, of the Western Trap and Target Company, 
was in town this week at the Illinois State shoot. Mr. Quimby 
when seen stated that he was at San Antonio two or three weeks 
ago, and while there took pains to inquire into the facilities claimed 
for that locality in the matter of the meeting of the Grand Ameri- 
can Handicap next year. He says that there is room for a dozen 
or even twenty sets of traps if need be, and a good hotel directly 
at the grounds. He thinks that the shooters of Missouri and 
Nebraska and Arkansas are not very enthusiastic over Kansas City 
again, and is inclined to believe that San Antonio would offer the 
better accommodations. In the matter of live birds, it should be 
remembered that San Antonio would have to import these birds 
from some Northern point. Just how well the San Antonians un- 
derstand the art of fitting live birds for the traps in large numbers 
remains to be seen. It is suggested that should the Texas town 
be lucky enough to win this great event that it would be an ex- 
cellent thing to import Dave Elliott along with the pigeons and 
have Dave take care of the coops and tune tip the birds in as 
good shape as they can be at any point so far to the south. This 
question of the handling of the birds is the most serious one which 
occurs as against the claims of San Antonio, nor does this seem 
to be a serious one in any particular.

themselves to be jolly good fellows. 
The Winchester pump gun donated by J. W r . Killen & Co., of 
Pueblo, was shot for, handicap rules. Garret, McKenzie and 
King tied on 23 out of 25. Garrett won on shoot off, and donated

Garfield Gun Club. 
Chicago, June 7.— The appended scores were made on our grounds 
to-day on the occasion of the sixth trophy shoot of the first series, 
Dr. Meek and T. W. Eaton divided the honors by tieing on scores 
of 24 in trophy event, Class A. After tieing again twice on straight 
scores on shoot-off, Eaton finally won. 
Dr. Huff won Class B trophv on 19, while J. McDonald won 
Class C on 21. 
The day was about as bad a one for target shooting as one could 
imagine. It was very dark; a heavy mist and drizzling rain came 
squarely in our face. The head wind made the flight of the 
targets very erratic, and a very heavy rain poured down most of 
the afternoon. Still, in the face of all these unpleasant and un- 
favorable conditions, twenty-one shooters came out and took a 
turn at the game. 
Sixth trophy shoot, 25 targets per man:

AJtoona Rod and Gun Club's Tournament. 
Altoona, Pa., June 4.— A trip to Altoona reminds one of the 
Wopsononock meeting, where, after manv difficulties, a panting 
engine has landed you 2,750 feet above sea level, and targets were 
thrown from a precipice into space. That was a delightful spot 
when weather conditions and all were in your favor. 
The Altoona Rod and Gun Club, while it had some splendid 
shoots there, endured many hardships, and each succeeding year 
had to renew what the former's labor and monev had placed, 
only to be destroyed by the elements and miscreant midwinter 
hunters and trappers. We are informed that that famous summer 
resort has been entirely abandoned. But the change this popular 
organization has made is a good one. The present grounds are 
located along the line of the Logan Valley Electric Railway near 
Lakemont Park, a fifteen minutes' ride by a spledidlv equipped, 
rapid system. The house stands in a beautiful level meadow that 
contains a hundred or more acres and affords a light north back- 
ground, as fine as a trapshooter has ever faced. Surrounding on 
all sides is scenery magnificent and restful to the eye. 
The club house is a story-and-a-half building, 50 by 40 feet, with 
lounging room, office, kitchen and dining hall, where splendid 
dinners are served free to club guests on all occasions. Some 
twenty-five lockers afford convenient places for guns, shells, etc. 
The walls are decorated with pictures of all kinds' appropriate 
to a sportsman's den. In addition to these, on this occasion the 
club had put up one of its large outing tents, which afforded ad- 
ditional room for lounging. 
The weather was delightful, with just enough breeze fanning 
acioss the traps to put a little uncertainty into their flight. 
Among the visitors were delegations from Pittsburg, Sewickley, 
Alillvale. Gill Hall, Windber. Bedford. Cresson. South Fork, 
Tyrone, Harrisburg, Lancaster, Snowshoe, Kenton, O., and other 
points. 
The trade was looked after by Neaf Apgar, of Peters Cartridge 
Company; Frank E. Butler, of the IT. M. C. Company; 
Frank Lawrence, of the Winchester Repeating Arms Com- 
pany; Howard Sergeant, of the Laflin & Rand Powder Com- 
pany; Charles North, of the Chambcrlin Cartridge and Target 
Company, and W. L. Colville, of E. I. Dupont de Nemours & Co. 
Charlie North, _ with his tinker box, was present, but Capt. 
Killitts. the club's jigger boss, had the magautrap in such good 
order that Charles was put to squad hustling, which very im- 
portant post he filled as few can. With trained trappers, such as 
this club have, there need be no delays on account of the trap. 
There was not a minute lost in the two days. 
Secretary Zeth had charge of the clerical end, and was ably 
assisted by Elvin K. Mentzer. Their work was prompt and there 
was not a kick on any account during the meeting. Mr. Zeth, 
who had been given the general management of the tournament 
from start to finish, deserves much credit for the able manner in 
which everything was conducted. 
The first day's average was won by Neaf Apgar, and that of the 
socond by Warren S. Smith, a member of the Altoona Club. The 
purses were divided according to the Jack Rabbit system. En- 
trance for 10-target events. $1.20, and 15-target events $1.80. Surplus 
in 10s. 50. 30, and 20 per cent; in 15s, 40, 30, 20 and 10 per cent. 
The attendance the second day was not so large as that of 
Friday, owing to the fact that many could not have reached their 
homes before Sunday had they remained over,

Wolstencroft's Tournament. 
Phi ladelphia, Pa.. June 8. — The indications are now very bright 
for a big attendance at Wolstencroft's Stone Harbor tournament, on 
June 20 and 21. To gain a little information whereby to answer 
the bunch of questions which have been fired at me regarding the 
ground conditions at Stone Harbor, I made a trip down there last 
week. I did not have to ask any one as to the whereabouts of 
Abbottsford Inn. Everybody naturally looks toward the ocean 
when they alight from the train, and the first object which attracts 
their attention is a big hotel, "the only big building in the town," 
and if one went to sleep on the train he would not be carried be- 
vond the station, as it is the last one on that line. 
When I arrived at the hotel Bill gave me the "glad hand," as 
did Mrs. Wolstencroft, for a stranger is very welcome at this 
season.' I was shown ovef the entire plant, with the exception 
of the kitchen; therefore T did hot have the opportunity of thank- 
ing the cook for the best -dinner I ever sat down to in a seashore 
or any other hotel, for that matter. The rooms are large and airy, 
the only small room being used as the bar room, in which' Bill 
has placed a large stock of choice liquors. The beach especially 
attracted my attention, being so wide and level. I first thought of 
placing the traps right on the beach and shooting over the ocean, 
but J. soon found that such an arrangement would be very unsat- 
isfactory to the shooters, owing to the glare of the .sun upon the 
white sand. By placing the traps close to the hotel, the shooting 
will be over the green, and the shooters may gain the shelter of tht 
porches. If it is possible, I shall put in a Sergeant system and a 
magautrap; if the magautrap cannot be used, then the shooting will 
be over two Sergeants. 
I don't think there will be 'any need to worry about hotel accom- 
modations, but I should advise those who expect to attend to 
engage room at once. I did not have the opportunity to so out 
fishing but saw some of the catches which were made that day. 
Hill tells me that he has ordered a steam launch which will be 
running by the time of the shoot; this will be used to convey 
parties to the fishing grounds. J. K. Starr. 
Titusville Gun Club. 
^Titusville, Pa., Tune 3.— At their regular shoot on Decoration 
Day, at their grounds, on Hydetown road, the Titusville> Gun Club 
had the pleasure of entertaining a large delegation of the Oil City 
shooters. A variety of events was shot off, including sweeps (Nos. 
o, 4 and r>), doubles, partners, etc. 
Although the wind was blowing strong from the rear and 
caused the targets to fly low, and made them hard to get still 
good scores were the rule with both visitors and home shooters. 
About Am targets were thrown, and every one enjoyed himself 
thoroughly. The scores follow:

The Lewfston Gun Club. 
Lkwiston, 111., June 6,— Although there was a driving rain, as 
usual, on Friday afternoon at the time for the Lewiston Gun Club's 
practice shoot, yet a few of the members braved the storm and 
shot a few events. We have several new members who are learn- 
ing how, and as we all know, it takes time unless one is a "fresh." 
We will hold a one-day tournament on our grounds June 27, 
which will be strictly an amateur affair, programmes will be out 
about June 20. Send for one. The scores:

Principles of Chess. 
" The Principles of Chess in Theory and Practice," by James 
Mason, is the title of a standard work which appears in a new 
dress in its fourth edition, revised and enlarged, from the press 
of Horace Cox, Windsor House, London, E. C. This excellent 
work is conspicuous by the sterling good sense displayed in 
treating of this most ancient of games, in respect both to its 
theory and practice. The elementary principles are illustrated and 
explained with such painstaking detail, and all the openings and 
gambits are so exemplified by actual play of the great masters in 
their matches and tournaments, that there is ample to interest 
the novice, the student and the expert. As a game which involves 
exclusively a contest of intellect, it has been a delight and a 
pastime throughout so many ages that its origin is lost, in their 
mists. Every class, from prince to peasant, has found in it a 
means of training the mind while engaged in agreeable contests of 
mind. No game so appeals to and cultivates the reasoning powers 
as does the game of chess. However, let one's intellect be ever 
so great, without a knowledge of the openings, he can never hope 
to play chess beyond the bounds of mediocre ability. A bad 
opening, a universal weakness of all the untaught, introduces an 
element of weakness 'which is permanent to the end of the game, 
insuring defeat even when opposed to a weak player who knows the 
approved methods of attack and defense. The work contains 330 
pages, and no part of the game, elements, general principles, 
combinations and master play, is ignored therein. It can be ob- 
tained of Forest and Stream Publishing Company. Price, $1.80.
