Interstate Toifrnament at . La Crosse* 
La Crosse, Wis., Aug. 1.— The La Ci-osse-Viroqua Interstate As- 
sociation tournament closed here this afternoon, and it may well 
be ranked among the best target tourneys held anywhere this 
year. While the Interstate series has been successful to a degree 
this year, this was especially so in Mr. Shaner's opinion, in its 
fulfillment of the aims of the Association in this work. Both clubs 
entered fully into the spirit of the work, providing every facility 
and accommodation, and when Shaner gets this kind of support 
his remarkable genius as a tournament manager eclipses all ob- 
stacles to success, if any there were. 
The writer has attended few tournaments where a greater local 
interest was manifested. A thousand people visited the grounds 
as spectators the second day, and paid closest attention to the 
shooters. And the entries far exceeded even Shaner's expectations. 
The first day there were seventy names on the list, and the second 
day eighty. It kept the two sets of expert traps going at a lively 
gait, but the programme was finished each day in good time, and 
Mr. Hirschy in the office kept the books right up to the game. 
Money contestants were handicapped, and professionals shot from 
scratch. The Rose system of division was used, and points paid 
very well throughout. 
Honors on the various days were won as follows: Thursday — 
Hirschy ].5S, Riehl 153, Lord 150. Friday— Waters 159, Riehl 158, 
Hirschy 156. Saturday— Hirschy 153, Hughes 151, Riehl 146. 
The amateur honors went on the respective days to Chingren, 
Crosby and Canfield. 
The honors for the tournament were won by Hirschy, Riehl and 
Hughes, and the amateur average for the week went to Harry 
Morrison. The detailed reports follow:

KiLLMORE. 
Atdmore To«fnament. 
The fourth annual tournament of the Ardniorc, I. T., Gun Club 
was held on July 28 and 29. Tliere were forty present, though all 
did not shoot through the entire day. The delays that often 
occur when getting started late, and the absence of a fast squad 
hustler, made the shoot drag along so that the programme re- 
mained unfinished when night stopped the popping of the smooth- 
bore. The targets were hard, and perfect scores very difficult 
to make. 
The trade was represented by the well-known Southern gentle- 
men, Messrs. F. M. Faurote, T. E. Hubby and Mr. Bicknell. 
Judge S. M. Harris, of Perry, Oklahoma, was present, exhibiting 
a device of his invention that seemed to have the very good qual- 
ity of simplicity. 
The highest average for the day was made by Reust, with 
Faurote only three behind. The scores:

July 29, Second Day. 
There seemed to be a disposition on the part of the rnanagement 
to push the events through, and an early start was made, yet the 
last event, and doubles at that, was pulled ofif after the chickens 
had gone to roost. 
What turned out to be the surprise of the whole shoot was the 
great target §niashiijg g{ Master Johnny Worclen, a mere boy, 
slight in stature and only thirteen years old; yet he shot with 
the men, and shot better than some of the old ones, as he made 
an average of 84 per cent. During tlie two days he fired 325 
shells, loaded with 26grs. of dense powder, a load that few men 
can stand behind in an all day grind. 
In the two-man team race, 25 targets each, for the Territorial 
team medal, the good score of 48 was made by Neal and Donnelly, 
of Guthrie, Okla. The Perry team, Harris and Herriman, made 
46, with the Ardmore boys. Havens and Wall next with 45. 
The medal for high average for both days was carried away by 
the formerly-from-Kansas, Reust. The scores:

Banker Hill Toufnament, 
The tournament advertised for Bunker Hill, III., July 28 and 29 
came off as per schedule, and was fairly well attended and man- 
aged from start to finish, as Mr. Cummings, the mainstay in the 
shooting line in this locality, had the assistance of that pushing 
manager, John S. Boa. 
The weather was on the changeable order at times. The wind 
caused the targets to duck in a way which prevented the shooter 
from making the best of scores. The last day there was some 
delay and annoyance from showers. The background was as bad 
as trees could made it, and when the sky was overcast, the man 
with the weak eye had a hard time getting a bead on those little 
fast dark sailing inverted saucers. Only one of the participants 
made 90 per cent, the first day, as the-targets were thrown too 
lew for the background. The traps were elevated on the last day, 
and though the number in attendance was less, there were four 
in the 90 per cent, class. 
Mr. Charles Spencer returned from his Southern trip, and 
though not in best of form, owing to some indisposition caused 
by the exposure to Southern sun, had a walk away as to high 
score. He lost but 9 out of the programme. Mr. Montgomery, 
the very steady shot from the nearby town of Moro, lost 21 targets^ 
and was high for amateur. Mr. Cummins was next with only one 
more to the bad. 
The race between Boa and Head was on the horse-and-horse 
order, and ended with Jim in the lead, much to the pleasure of 
Leslie Standish. 
The drawing card of tlie day was the 100-target race for a fine 
silver cup, presented by the management. The programme events 
numbered 5, G, 7, 8 and 9, though shot as separate events, were 
also known as the cup event. 
On the first day Mr. Montgomery made 89 and was high; but 
as there was a re-entry allowed, he shot another score, making 
90, and both he and all his friends were sure that his score would 
not be beaten by any one the following day. 
When the shoot was started the second morning there were 
present some new faces, among them the good shots Lewis, from 
Auburn, and Shoff, from Shelbyville, who were capable of break- 
ing more than 90, and yet the weather conditions did not make 
it hardly possible. Yet both gave us a fine exhibition of steady 
grinding, and had Lewis not made the excellent score of 95, Mr 
Shofif would have won with his 92. Shofi made another tr'y for 
the coveted cup, yet failed to reach the high mark set by the 
man from Auburn with the auburn hair. The friends of the 
Moro man, while sorry to see him lose, were generous in their 
congratulations, as Mr. Lewis' made the very regular score of 18 
19, 19, 19, 20—95. 
Charles Spencer was enjoying a visit to the old home where his 
father taught him the use of the shotgun, and had the pleasure 
of showing the numerous old friends how well he- could "bust" ■ 
targets. He made the grand total of 184 for the day, and a total 
of 375 for the two days. Charles was not alone in his glory, as 
accompanying him and making her first visit and meeting so 
many of the residents of Bunker Hill was the most interested 
one of all others on such an occasion, Mrs. Spencer. 
While Mr. Montgomery shot so well on the cup and lost, yet he 
had the satisfaction of being the winner of first amateur average 
for both days. The scores: 
First Day.
