Ossming: G«n Club. 
OssiNiNG, N. Y.— The team of the Ossining Gun Club was again 
victorious in their match with the Poughkeepsie Gun Club team 
at Ossining on the 13th inst. The teams are evenly matched, for 
each club has two wins to its credit. 
The third match at Poughkeepsie, on Jan. 2, was a 10-man team 
affair, and was won by Ossining with the small lead of three 
targets. The weather was threatening and cold, but thirty shooters 
braved it all and shot through, there being 4,100 targets thrown. 
There were but two trade representatives present, Sim Glover 
and Harry Welles, who were hustling their respective powders. 
Sim Glover was high professional with 142 out of 160. J. B. 
Sanders, of Albany, won first high amateur average, with 134; 
I. Tallman of South Milbrook, won second high average; A. 
Bedell won prize for high score on the Ossining team. 
In the evening the Ossining Gun Club gave a banquet at the 
Weskora Hotel in honor of the visiting team. The dining room 
was finely decorated with sportsman's trophies and firearms, col- 
lected from the members by E. McDonald, proprietor of the 
hotel. This dinner was a pleasant sequel to a fine day's fun. 
Mr. J. G. Heath kindly helped in scoring and squad hustling.

Boston Gun Clofa. 
Boston, Mass., Feb. 15. — Eighteen shooters, with handicaps from 
16 to 21yds., congregated on the Boston Gun Club platform to-day, 
and with conditions just right proceeded to do or die, though how 
well they succeeded is better told by the scores. 
Griffiths, Frank, Dickey and Sadler had a merry time of it in the 
match, 26 breaks being recorded for each, two targets too good 
for Gleason and Burns, who were tied on second with 24. Owen 
with 23 occupied third place all alone. Capt. Woodruff, just back 
from a Southern trip, held fourth place, together with Roy, but 
says that first place is more to his liking, and intends to have 
his share of the honors before long. HoUis had a decidedly bad 
half hour, and seemingly could not extricate himself, and being a 
usual 85 per cent., it was clear that he was away off form. Other 
scores:

Oneida County Sportsmen's Association. 
Utica, N. Y., Feb. 13.-The Lincoln Birthday shoot of the 
Oneida County Sportsmen's Association was held under ex- 
ceedingly wintry weather conditions. Messrs. J. A. R. Elliott, J. 
S. Fanning and F. E. Butler, distinguished experts, were visitors. 
They are members of the Fulford memorial committee. 
The committee visited the establishment of Jenny & Nelbach, 
monument builders in this city, yesterday morning and selected 
a monument, which will be of Barre, Vt., granite of an attrac- 
tive design. It will be 6 feet 4 inches high, double base, the lower 
one 5 feet 7 inches by 3 feet 3 inches by 4 feet. The lower 
base will be in undressed stone, while the second will be highly 
polished and bear the name "Fulford." The die will be dark 
and polished and the cap will be of dressed granite. The con- 
tractors will have the monument in position for dedication during 
the week of the State shoot in this city, when a programme will 
be arranged under the direction of the O. C. S. A. Gun Club, 
of which Mr. Fulford was a member. The scores:

And Other Things. 
Cincinnati, O., Feb. 18.~Editor Forest and Stream: Bonesteel, 
South Dakota, and J. F. Spatz, field captain of the Bonesteel 
Gun Club, can both of them swell out their respective chests by 
reason of Mr. Leroy Leach's wonderful record of "500 straight" 
made "recently" on the grounds of the club and under the direct 
supervision of Mr. J. F. Spatz. Why does Mr. Spatz, field captain, 
not give us the exact date on which such a truly record-breaking 
feat was performed? We must know it. Even children know- 
that the Appomattox affair took place on April 9, 1865; that the 
Chicago cow kicked over the oil lamp on Oct. 8, 1871; and that 
Teddy Roosevelt will be inaugurated on March 4 next. Give the 
date, please, Mr. Spatz. 
Also tell us kindly, why in the world Mr. Leroy Leach did not 
go out and break at least one more target, so as to make it "501 
straight" or even better? Did he only have 500 shells at th« 
grounds? 
Seriously speaking, if one considers that "the weather condi- 
tions were very unfavorable for high scores," and that the shooter 
was occasionally troubled by having to stop "to restore numbed 
fingers," and last but not least, that "the shooter accomplished 
the Herculean task" in such a short time and "without cleaning 
the gun." I maintain that we trapshooters, interested parties, 
ought at least to have some details about this wonderful feat. 
Will not Mr. Spatz please accommodate us? 48grs.
