Ossining Gun Club. 
Ossining, N. Y., March 14. — There was considerable fun at the 
regular Saturday afternoon shoot of the Ossining Gun Club to-day 
after the shoot for the handicap and scratch cups, in which Wash- 
burn got a win for the first, and Blandford for the second. Several 
matches were shot, Washburn coming out ahead. 
In these last events all were using inferior loads, which fact 
brings out Washburn's score as a fine exhibition. Washburn, 
Clark and Fisher tied for the handicap cup and Washburn won on 
the third shoot-off. 
Event No. 4 is the scratch cup event; misses as breaks de- 
noted by figures after the names, which apply in events Nos. 
5, 6 and 7. 
The Intercounty cup shoot will take place next Saturday at 
Ossining; seven-man teams, teams from any club in Rockland, 
Orange, Dutchess and Westchester counties are invited to com- 
pete. AH shooters are invited to shoot along.

Jackson Park Gun Club. 
Paterson, N. J., March 14.— The Jackson Park Gun Club, of 
Paterson, N. J., held a very successful and pleasant shooting 
affair this afternoon among some of its own members and a few 
visitors, it proved very mteresting while it lasted. The shoot 
itself was started about 2 o'clock and we were back in the city 
before 5:30 P. M., having disposed of 2-50 first-class birds. 
There were only three incomers in the lot. About eight or ten 
had to be flushed, and were corkers when they started, l^he whole 
proved to be about the best we have had at our grounds. Only 
one bird had to be called for refu.sing to fly. 'the birds were 
retrieved by G. A. Hopper's dog. 'He does his work very 
rapidly, and is Svhat I would call very humane. He gently brings 
the bu-d back and lays it down on the platform, and if the bird 
shows any sign of life he gently places his foot on it till the 
trapper gets to it, and then he goes to his place, ready for the 
next. 
The shoot to-day opened with a 5-bird event, $2.50, handicap. 
Christy, in great shape and shooting iri excellent time, is the only 
one to kill straight. 
Lenone had a good chance to tie, but would not use his second 
barrel on his third bird, and it got away. He finished second all 
alone. He promised to-day to gather his birds with single barrel 
kills. He used his second only three times during the afternoon, 
all missed, and had excellent birds to shoot at. 
The second event was at 10 birds, $5, for a splendid seven-year- 
old moose head. The second man was to get his entrance back. 
Christy again proved to be the best in form, doing his work quick 
and clean, and scored his 10 birds. Morgan, Powers and Hopper 
each lost his fifth bird. Each was a corker. Lenone continued 
to use his single barrel, losing his third through waiting till the 
bird was nearly over the boundary before using the second. He 
dropped his eighth and tenth the same way as Hopper lost his 
eighth and tenth— both excellent birds. Morgan's tenth was an 
incomer, hit hard, and came straight for him, almost at his feet; 
could have got it himself had he laid his gun down and put his 
hand out; it fell dead just back of him. Powers came right after. 
With less experience at the game, but the making of a good 
one with another season's practice, showed the lack of experi- 
ence on a slow bird, and it got away unhurt. He shot too quick 
both times.^ Ratcliff is a new man at the traps; he will make a 
good one before long. Bunn was in poor shape. 
In the third event, 7 birds, $3, Morgan, Powers and Ratcliff did 
the best work. Christy and Roberts, another new man, making a 
great promise, with little practice, were close up with 6. 
In the fourth event, a .$1 miss-and-out, Morgan, shooting in good 
form, lost a corking driver on his fifth round, and had to retire. 
Ratcliff, in hard luck, lost his fifth just back of him, about 
3yds. Roberts and Klotz divided, as there was only 1 bird left in 
the traps, and one of Paterson's finest police officers, Dave Gibson, 
did the act with the last one and scored it dead. 
The weather to-day was of the most beautiful kind for out- 
door sport, and would like many more of the same kind. 
The next shoot at live birds will take place on March 28. The 
principal event will be for a fine head of the black-tail deer. 
Everybody welcome. Shooting to commence at 1 P. M. The

Boston Gun Club, 
Boston, Mass., March 11.— The usual weekly shoot of the Bos- 
ton Gun Club was held on their grounds at Wellington to-day, and 
twelve shooters were present, all bent on the same purpose, that 
of smashing bluerocks. That the majority of them did it seems 
to be the case, straight scores coming quite easy and apparently 
without much effort. 
The consecutive match, wliich has been causing considerable 
interest of late, was as usual entered by all, and after the smoke 
had cleared away, the record was again broken. Rule having just 
45 to his credit, and going Griffith to the good 4 targets'. Dr. 
Gleason also was distinctly in it, breaking a 27 straight and a 25 
straight, also securing 93 out of his 100 targets, the highest score 
of this kind on the grounds this season, and also making 28 in the 
match, closely^ followed by Woodruff with 27, who seems now to 
have struck his old clip. Other scores as follows:

were also present, as was Elmer E. Shaner, secretary-manager 
of the Association. 
The secretary read the call for the meeting, signed by tlie 
president, which st.ited that the call was issued for the purpose 
of considering matters in connection with the holding of the fifth 
Grand American Handicap at targets at Interstate Park. 
In view of the numerous changes which have taken place at 
Interstate Park, both in the grounds and in the management, it 
was a question as to whether the Association would be able to 
hold the event there. Manager Shaner stated that he had in- 
spected the grounds very carefully, and in his opinion the G. A, 
H. could not be held there in the same up-to-date manner as 
heretofore. The matter was discussed at considerable length, and 
on motion made and duly seconded it was decided to cancel the 
tournament. 
Poughfceepsie Gun Club. 
Pouchkeepsie, N. Y., March 14.— The regular weekly shoot of 
the Poughkeepsie Gun Club to-day was attended by eight regu- 
lars, one of whom, Mr. Marshall, holds the reco'rd for rapid 
progress in trapshooting. Two weeks ago this gentleman made 
his first attempt to smash bluerocks, when, after the shoot was 
over, he found it easier to count the breaks than the misses. 
To-day, however, it was easier to count the misses, which in his 
last string amounted to but four. Twenty-one is a nice score to 
make, for one having had as little experience as Mr. Marshall. ■ 
The warm spring sunshine, and total absence of wind made the 
day an ideal one for shooting, and but for the crankiness of the 
trap, which persisted in breaking at least half a dozen targets be- 
fore delivering a good one, good, scores would have been the 
order of the day. Notwithstanding, however, some good scores 
were made. On Saturday, the 21st, this club will send a seven- 
man team to Ossining to shoot in the Intercounty cup match. 
To-day's scores follow:

Baltimore — Keystone, 
Baltimore, Md., March 16.— The deciding shoot of the series 
between the Baltimore Shooting Association and Keystone Shoot- 
ing League teams, as to the superiority of Baltimore over Phila- 
delphia at the traps, was settled to-day in favor of Baltimore by 
a score of 193 to 176. Each man, nine on a side, shot at 25 live 
birds. The competition was in pairs, one man of each team 
shooting a man to man race. Only two of Philadelphia's men 
came out victors. Mr. I. Budd was the only contestant who 
killed straight. Baltimore had 17 to the good at the close of the 
race, thus the net winning of the local team was raised to 10 birds 
for the four shoots, which decided the championship. The scores: 
Baltimore — McAlistoer 22, Storr 20, Coe 24, Burroughs 2l" 
Malone 22, Dupont 22, Gifford 16, Gorman 23, Waters 23; total 193! 
Keystone— Rothaker 18, Van Loon 17, E. Johnson 22, Coffin 18, 
P. Johnson 19, Hobbs 18, Dr. Darby 22, Hallowell 17, Budd 25: 
total 176.
