FOREST AND STREAM. 
[May 6, 1905.1 
The Deshler gentlemen are not at all satisfied, and have stated 
that they will be in Hebron soon for a return match. 
Things are getting spring-like at Hutchinson, Minn., and the 
Gun Club members have been out for their first warming up. 
John Huderlee won the medal, same having been carried since 
last year by Charles Kruester. 
Just to hand, the information that a new organization has been 
launched, to be known as the Wapakuta Gun Club, at Brainerd, 
Minn. C. C. Kyle is f resident; E. O. Webb, Secretary; Thomas 
Mooney, Field Captain. 
The Deer River Gun Club has challenged the Duluth, Minn., 
Central Club for a team shoot, $100 a side, and all expenses. It is 
thought that the Central boys will not let the opportunity pass to 
show what they can do to keep up their reputation, as at least 
one of the best in the State. The shoot is said to be a go. Yet 
the time and place have yet to be settled. When it comes off, 
there will be a stir in the trapshooting circles, for such challenges 
for team shoots under such conditions are not of frequent occur- 
rence. 
Lakeside Park Gtin Club, Hebron, O. 
The tournament of the Lakeside Park Gun Club was held near 
Buckeye Lake on April 2C and 27. The first day was cloudy and 
rainy, and the attendance was small. The second day opened 
with very threatening weather, and this doubtless kept many shoot- 
ers away. 
Good sport was enjoyed by those present, and but for the 
weather the manager, Mr. Lou Fisher, would have had the crowd 
he expected. 
High average was won by R. Trimble, with 349 out of 360. Orr 
second, 340; Fisher third, 318. 
The match for the Mullerite medal was won by Orr, who broke 
25 straight. 
Twenty-five shooters took part in one or more of the events of 
the two days, six shooting the entire programme. On the first 
day Orr gave Trimble a hot race for high average, finishing only 
one behind with 173 out of 180, Trimble breaking 174. The scores:

Cincinnati Gon Club. 
There was a good attendance at the shoot on April 29, twenty 
shooting in the Peters trophy event. Ackley headed the list in the 
Peters trophy event with the only straight score, including handi- 
cap. Don Minto was- second with 48, which was also high for 
actual breaks. There are only about three more shoots in this 
event. 
Gambell leaves on May 3 for his trip across the pond, and we all 
wish him the best of luck, a good passage, a good timie and , a 
safe return home in time to help the boys celebrate on the Fourth. 
During his absence, Mr. R. F. Davies will look out for the com- 
fort of the shooters on club days.

D. M. Swihart won with a score of 23. 
Cincinnati vs. Newatfc for Phellis Trophy. 
The Cincinnati, O., Gun Club has been busy this week— a 
match on Wednesday with Dayton, and on Friday, April 28, a 
match for the Phellis trophy with the Newark Gun Club, from 
which club they won the cup a few weeks ago (April 19). 
Over one hundred members of the club and its friends were 
present. The visitors arrived about 10 o'clock, and were wel- 
comed and informed that they could shoot all the practice events 
they wished. 
After dinner, which was furnished by the local team and pre- 
pared, as on Wednesday, by Mrs. Gambell, a sweepstake was shot 
and the teams were then made up, the home club entering three, 
Dayton one, and Newark one. 
Shooting began at 3:10; at 4:30 everything was over but- the 
cheering, and that was conspicuous by its absence. The Newark 
team were once more holders of the cup, which has ^ been the 
occasion of so many interesting shoots. Messrs. Ed. Trimble and 
A. C. Dick acted as referees. Arthur Gambell and John Penn 
scored for Cincinnati, and Mr. Browne for Newark. 
The day was cloudy, and hazy. A little sprinkle of rain fell m 
the afternoon. A strong wind caused the targets to jump some. 
Mr. Orr, of Newark, made the high mdividual score, 48. At 
the 'end of the first round Cincinnati No. 1 and Newark were 
tied on 131, but in the last round the unexpected happened, and 
one of the Cincinnati's steadiest shots, Mr. Faran, went to pieces. 
He landed such a score as has not been recorded for him since 
he first took up the shooting game. He was not well, and was 
really in no condition to stand the strain of a closely contested 
Kiatch. . , , T,T , ^ 
In the evening the home team entertamed the Newark team at 
supper, and they returned home pleased \9ith their visit and with 
a clear idea of what hospitality means with the Cincinnati shooters. 
Among the visitors were Messrs. Ed. Browne, Fred King, Jesse 
Orr. John Keefe, S. Burrell, Earl Murphy, Chas. Schaller, John 
Keifer ■ F A. Hulshizer, Lou Fisher, John Taylor and Jennings, 
all of Newark; C. H. Cord, Z. Craig, Lindemuth, Spangler, Rike, 
Carr and Cain, of Dayton. . , , , , 
The Dayton Gun Club challenged the Newark team and a match 
for the trophy will be shot soon.

Phellis Trophy, Cincinnati vs. Dayton. 
On April 26 a team from the Dayton G"n Club came to Cin- 
cinnati to contest for the Phellis trophy. The day opened cloudy, 
with heavy rain in the morning. The remainder of the day was 
cloudy and hazy, making rather a poor light to shoot in. 
Supt. Gambell and Faran, of the reception committee, were at 
the station on the arrival of the train to meet the guests. There 
was a good attendance of members and spectators. 
After some practice shooting the guests were shown to the club 
dining room, where Mrs. Gambell had the tables laid, and one of 
her best dinners ready. 
The match began at 3 and finished at 3:40, and the balance of 
the day was devoted to sweep shooting.

The attendance at the medal shoot of the Rohrer's Island Gun

number of the members were in Cincinnati. Eight took part in 
the medal shoot, and Ed. Cain won with a score of 23.

Chicago, April 29.— The appended scores were made to-day, on 
the occasion of the second trophy shoot of the first series. Dr. 
Meek won Class A trophy on 19. Keck and Dr. Skillman tied 
for Class B on 15, while Dr. Reynolds won Class C on the good 
score of 19. 
The day was about as bad as it could be for target shooting, 
being extremely windy, and gusty at that. The flight of targets 
was so erratic as to make good scores simply impossible. 
The weather conditions were so very unfavorable that only a 
few shooters cared to take it in, only fifteen taking part in the 
trophy event.

SIDE LIGHTS OF TRADE. 
The G. W. Cole Company has sent us a letter written to them 
by their attorneys, wherein is set forth that the United States 
Circuit Court has granted an injunction against, certain companies, 
restraining them from the use of the trade mark, "3 in 1." 
Mr. Geo. A. Mosher, famous in the activities of the gun trade, 
writes us: "It gives me great pleasure to inform you that I have 
become associated with the Lefever Arms Company, of Syracuse, 
N. Y., as traveling salesman. I hope to visit the trade fre- 
quently, as well as attend many tournaments. I think the many 
acquaintances I made during my seventeen years in the gun busi- 
ness will be glad to know I am back in line again."

In the big cities at the opening of the fishing season a multi- 
tude of men, chained to business, are yet eager to get off to some 
nearby place where fishing is to be had, but we all know that 
near the big cities anglers are plenty, but fish are scarce. New 
York is forunately situated in this respect, for within a short dis- 
tance on the N. Y. Ont. & Western Railroad are the beautiful 
streams of Sullivan and Delaware counties, where trout and 
bass — and mighty ones, too — are had by the lucky. The N. Y., O. 
& W. pamphlet, telling much about the country the road passes' 
through, will be sent on receipt of 7 cents by Mr. J. C. Anderson,- 
Traffic Manager. 
The scenery of the Saguenay River, the trout of Lake St. Johns, , 
and the ouananiche of the great discharge are all famous, for 
people have been traveling back and forth for a long time between 
Quebec and Lake St. John over the Quebec & Lake St. John R. 
R. They stop for a while at the great Hotel Roberval, and then 
very likely go off to camp on some of the beautiful waters in the 
neighborhood, where the fish are plenty and the guides efficient, 
and where is found enjoyment as nearly ideal as any of us are 
likely to see in this world. The season is now opening again, 
and the advertisement of the railroad in another column tells 
where information about the country, with its fish, its game and its 
wonderful scenery may be had. 
The trap advertised by the W. S. Dickey Clay Mfg. Co., is 
offered on such easy terms that it is hard to see how any one 
should hesitate about making trial of it. The company clearly 
has the utmost faith in its traps, and proves that faith by its 
very liberal .offer. It certainly does not cost much to write for a 
catalogue giving full information about these traps, and for 2 cents 
and a little trouble you can learn what the manufacturers have to 
say about their traps and their target. 
IT DON'T COST A CENT 
UNTIL YOU ARE SATISFIED. We will ship you a 
DICKEY BIRD AUTOMATIC TRAP 
on trial, if satisfactory you send us $25.00. If not satisfactory, return the trap. We know you will be satisfied. Every-
