All indications are that the tournament of the Wawaset Gun 
Club, at Wilmington, Del,, May 12 and 13, will be a success in 
every particvilar. A large number of shooters, both professional 
and amateur, have signified their intention to participate. As it 
is an amateur tournament, manufacturers' agents will be per- 
mitted to shoot for targets only. Targets will not be thrown over 
60yds. A sliding handicap, 16 to 20yds., will establish a reason- 
able equity in the competition. Five per cent, from the net 
amount of the purse in each event will be deducted, and the 
total sum will be divided pro rata among the amateurs who shoot 
through the programme without winning a sum equal to their 
entrance. Guns and ammunition, prepaid and marked in owner's 
name, sent care of E. Melchior, Jr., 214 King street, will be de- 
livered on the shooting grounds free of charge. For programmes 
address the secretary, W. M. Foord, 213 West Sixth street.

The large sportsmen's goods establishment of Messrs. Von 
Lengerke & Detmold, 318 Broadway, New York, had a narrow 
escape from destruction by fire on Tuesday of last week. The 
fire started in one of the upper floors of the building. It was 
extinguished by the energetic work of the fire department before 
the whole building was involved. Engines, water tower and hook 
and ladder truck, with the congested traffic and crowds, made at 
that hour the corner of Broadway and Pearl street a scene of 
extraordinary activity and interest. On the following day an 
event of still greater interest transpired. Five members of the 
German nobility, recently arrived and en route westward, visited 
Messrs. Von Lengerke & Detmold and purchased some rapid 
fire shotguns. Three of the distinguished visitors were Durchlaucht 
Prinz von Ratibor Schillingsftirst, Durchlaucht Prinz Karl von 
Ratibor, and Durchlaucht Erbprinz von Ratibor. The names 
of the other two I did not learn. They are said to be famous 
shots in Germany.

Dr. J. W. Meek, Sec'y. 
Boston Gun Club, 
Boston, Mass., April 27. — Jupiter Pluvius reigned supreme at 
the Boston Gun Club shoot to-day, never once attempting to stem 
the tidal wave. However, the nine standbys that did venture out 
on this disagreeable day were no less enthusiastic, and between 
drops some six events were shot. Considering the conditions, the 
shooting was very good, over half the number averaging over the 
honor mark for these grounds, with the rest of the bunch very 
close to it. Bell's work in the prize match displaces a previous 
19 and now stands second in the total, one target to the rear of 
Griffiths, whose shooting of late has been an eye-opener for us. 
Hodsdon was somewhat off form to-day, his match score being 
just a little hard luck, etc., coming at the same time. Capt. 
Woodruff's return to the fold, after a few weeks' absence caused 
by sickness at home, was indeed welcome, and though handicap- 
ped by a strange gun, was up with the top-notchers in most of 
the events. Other scores:

Poughkeepste Gun Club. 
PouGHKEEPSiE, N. Y., April 28. — Although the weather to-day 
was too wet for much of an attendance, the three high men of the 
cup series were on deck and the race, which turned out to be the 
last one for the Traver cup, was a spirited one. Winans and 
Smith tied, and four strings had to be shot before the tie was 
broken, which finally fell to Winans' credit. The shooting of 
these two men was the most even ever seen in any cup race shot 
here, neither having the advantage of the most number of breaks 
at the end of the 125 rounds, both breaking exactly the same 
number — 92. 
The cup is now the property of Winans, he having won it six 
times, according to conditions that it was put up under: 
Events: 1 2 3 4 5 6 Targets: 25 25 25 25 25 25 
Targets: 25 25 25 25 25 25 Events: 1 2 3 4 5 6
