FOREST AND STREAM. 
[Oct. 29, 1904. 
A strong wind blew, but some good scores were made, notwith- 
standing. In the cash prize event, eighteen shooters took part. 
Faran was high man, with 44, Dreihs and Reed not being in the 
competition. A team match was shot between four two-man 
teams, 50 targets per man, two high teams out. 
Chas. Dreihs led in the main event with 46, and D. D. Gross 
close up in the same event. 
Ackley is at Duck Island, 111., where he is smashing ducks 
instead of targets. 
Eighty entries are in the cup race. No scores were shot to-day, 
and it looks as though Faran had a cinch. ) 
Jay Bee is confined to his bed, quite seriously ill. 
Gambell has something brewing for Thanksgiving Day. 
Cash prize shoot, 50 targets, distance handicap: Dreihs (16), 46, 
Reed (16) 45, Faran (20) 44, Roll (19) 43, Gambell (16) 43, Medico

Notes. 
The Tipp Gun Club, Tippecanoe City, O., had as visitors on 
Oct. 20 Messrs. R. L. Trimble and D. D. Gross. Each took part 
in the medal event and scored 25 straight. The medal event was 
won by Hawver, after three shoot-offs. 
The Hamilton, O., Gun Club held its last regular shoot of the 
season on Oct. 20. This was the fifteenth contest in the series of 
medal shoots, and eleven shooters faced the traps. Parker was 
high gun for the day with 44, Wesley a close second with 43. 
The conditions of the medal shoot were fifteen contests in the 
series. Members must shoot in ten or more events in order to 
qualify, and the one having the largest aggregate of ten best 
scores wins the badge and first prize. The club gives $100, which 
is divided among those qualifying in proportion to their ten best 
scores. 
The fourteenth semi-monthly shoot of the Indianola Gun Club, 
Columbus, O., was held on Oct. 15. Members were away duck, 
dove and snipe shooting. J. Y. Bassell, Jesse Smith and two of 
Newark's cracks, Messrs. Fisher and Taylor were present as 
guests of the club, and the latier's work was a feature of the day, 
he losing but 2 targets out of 50. Bossell had never shot at clay 
targets before, and made a very good showing. 
The Licking County Gun Club, of Newark, O., has challenged 
the Indianola Gun Club, of Columbus, O., to shoot a six-man 
team race at 50 targets per man, for the price of the targets. The 
match to take place at Hebron,- O., on Oct. 26 or 27.

The Rohrer's Island Gun Club, of Dayton, O., held their regu- 
lar medal shoot on Oct. 19. The medal event was won by C. F. 
Miller, after four shoot-offs. This gives him the silver loving cup. 
There was a small attendance at the regular medal shoot of the 
Welfare Gun Club, Dayton, only four men competing, and only 
nine shooters being at the grounds. On Thanksgiving Day a 
grand turkey shoot will be held. Shooting all day. 
E. D. Fulford. 
The following is a clipping from the Utica Daily Press of Oct. 
19, which we deem to be of interest to the hosts of friends of 
the late E. D. Fulford. It shows the profound esteem in which 
he was held by his fellow men: 
"There was a very large attendance of friends at the funeral of 
Elijah D. Fulford yesterday. Services were conducted by Rev. 
James D. Corby, of the Church of the Reconciliation, at the 
family residence, 716 Genesee street, at 2:30 P. M. The members 
of the Oneida County Sportsmen's Association attended in a 
body. The Oriental Quartette, consisting of E. H. Stewart, Rob- 
ert J. Hughes, A. Spencer Hughes and F. E. Swancott, rendered 
several selections. The esteem in which Mr. Fulford was held 
was shown by the many large and beautiful floral tributes, in- 
cluding a standing column, four feet high, from the Oneida 
County Sportsmen's Association; plaque of roses and palms from 
the Bre Powder Company; large standing wreath from the em- 
ployes of the Remington Arms Company; large pillow from the 
Union Metallic Cartridge Company. The bearers were Frank 
E. Butler, of Nutley, N. J.; J. S. Fanning, Jersey City, N. J.; J. 
G. Heath, Madi son, N. J. ; C. R. Mizner, Clarence C. JBoff and 
Charles Windheim, of Utica. . Interment was made in Forest Hill 
Cemetery. Of the bearers, Jack Fanning represented the Laflin 
& Rand and duPont Powder companies, at Wilmington, Del.; 
Messrs. Butler and Heath, the Union Metallic Cartridge Com- 
pany, with plant in Bridgeport, Conn., and main office in New 
York city. They . came to Utica as representatives of the com- 
pany, especially to attend the funeral, all being personal friends 
of the deceased. Before returning home, they spoke in highest 
terms of Mr. Fulford, and said that had it been possible a large 
delegation of trapshooters would have been present at the funeral, 
among whom he had very many friends, by whom he will be 
greatly missed." 
The duPont Powder Company and the Laflin & Rand Powder 
Company sent a large bed of flowers. Mr. Ed. Banks, of the 
duPont Company, sent a floral design, and Mrs. F. E. Butler 
(Annie Oakley) sent a wreath of ivy and roses. 
Indianapolis Gun Gub. 
Indianapolis, Ind.— The fall tournament of the Indianapolis 
Gun Club, held on Oct. 12 and 13, had a good attendance. Mr. 
A. S. Flinn, of Wabash, Ind., shooting under the name of Flem- 
ing, won the English Hotel cup with a score of 87 out of 100. 
Mr. Ed Rike, of Dayton, O., was second with a score of 85, and 
also was amateur high gun in the merchandise events. With Mr. 
Ed. Voris he was amateur high gun in the two days' programme.
