Sept. 21, Third Day. 
As is usually the case, there was a slight decrease in the num- 
ber of shooters, two days being about all many of the amateurs 
care to shoot through. The crowd of spectators was, if anything, 
larger than on either of the previous days, and the interest was 
maintained up to firing ,of the last shot. Fifty-four shooters were 
on hand, forty-eight shooting- through., 
I'he weather was the best of the week, being clear and comfort- 
able, and not wind enough to bother the shooters. The scores im- 
proved quite a little in consequence. Miss Altherr, who has been the 
drawing attraction of this tournament, fell off a trifle, the strain 
of such a Tong contest being a little too hard for her. The pro- 
gramme was finished about 3:30, and by 4:30 the good-byes had 
been said and the visiting shooters were gone. High gun honors 
for the day were divided by F. Alkire and Raven, with 187 
each, the best score made during the shoot. Other high ama- 
teurs were: Henderson, second, 186; Wheeler, 183; Pierce and 
Rhoads, 180 each ; .Davenport, 179; Hatcher and Fisher, 178 each;, 
Foord, Dick, Bullerdick and Barnett, 177 each; Gambell, Shattuck 
and J. W. Hayes, 175. 
Of the professionals, Le Compte and K 86 tied for first on 183; 
Skelly, 182; Budd, Trimble and Phellis, 180 each; Money, 179; 
Dreihs, 178; \ ietmeyer, 174. 
Amateur high average for the three days: Wheeler and Rhoads, 
640 eachr Henderson, 538; Alkire, 534; Raven, 532; Foord, 530; 
Barker and Brady, 529 each. 
The handsome silver cup given by the Dupont Powder Co., to 
the vyinner of high amateur average was won by Rhoads, after 
shooting off the tie with Wheeler at 50 targets. 
High professional average: Budd, 546; Money, 641, Phdlis 
and Trimble, 539; Skelly, 533; Reid and Riehl, 53T The scores:

Reed and his brother Elmer, of Manchester, made excellent scores, i 
^ud completely won the good will of all present. Four years asT, 
chief executive of a politically hostile city is something to befl 
proud of. Elmer can outshoot the mayor and anybody else in-:] 
New Hampshire. Ex-Mayor Martin, of Concord, shot a consistent]! 
run of scores, and at times was absolutely brilliant. He must-.: 
always be reckoned with when shotguns are trumps. Climax (Ed. 
Burns) and Rule, of Lovvell, Mass., drew general attention by ■: 
their steadiness and genuine good-fellowship. Though they did 
passing well yesterday, both are capable of better work. Wneelef- 
and Darton, of Maine, won their spurs long tittle ago. Amottg '

The first annual tournament of the Ow’en Sound, Ontario, Can 
Gun Club was held on their grounds at Royston Park, on Thurs- 
day and Friday, Sept. 7 and 8. Owing to the delay in getting out 
the programmes, there were not as many present as was expected. 
Mr. Forest H. Conover, representative in Canada for a powdef 
cGinpan}% assisted the club in the management of the shoot, and 
his long and varied experience in trapshooting and evetything in 
connection with it did much to help the shoot along without 
delay. Every one present expressed himself as well pleased, and 
promised, if given a little more notice next year, to bring five 
times as many shooters. 
Each day to high average winners the club gave $50, divided 
$12, $10, $8 and $5. 
On the first day the eighth event was a merchandise shoot. 
High gun took his choice, and so on down as long as they lasted. 
The average cash winners for the first day, shooting at 205 targets 
each, were: First, G. M. Dunk, broke 189, $15; second, G. B 
Smith, 182, $12; third, H. A. Mallory, 171, $10; fourth and fifth, 
IV . M. Morrison and C. E. Cantelon, 167, $6.60 each. 
On the second day, Friday, Sept. 8, the eighteenth event was for 
the championship of northern Ontario-, 26 targets. A magnificent 
trophy was presented by the Dupont- Powder Co. In this event 
Mr. Chas. E. Flarris, of Owen Sound, and Mr. C. E. Cantelon, of' 
Clinton, tied at 24 each. In the attempt to break the tie, each 
broke 23, and in the final shoot-off Mr. Harris broke 24 and Mr. 
Cantelon 23. 
The Owen Sound Gun Club is a young organization, and we 
feel very proud to think that Mr. Harris, who commenced shoot- 
ing last spring, should capture so fine a trophy, emblematic of 
the championship of the north. 
The average cash winners for the second day, each shooting at 
206 targets, were: First, G. M. Dunk, Toronto, broke 187, $15; 
second, W. A. Smith, Kingville, 179, $12; third, G. B. Smith, 
Cryton, 169, $10; fourth, C. E. Cantelon, Clinton, 167, $8; fifth, II. 
A. Mallory, Drayton, 166, $5.

Hoopeston Touirnainient. 
lIooPESTO.N, 111., Sept. 20. — Y'estefday was not the niost sUitdble 
day that could be chosen fof holding a -target tournament. Theffe 
were threatening clouds, and for most of the day the wind was 
strong-, coming ffom behind the traps with a quartering slknt. 
Ihe club members and their friends to the extent of twenty 
had assembled, and each had made arrangements to burn up 200 
shells. The shoot was started a little late, say 10 A. M, 
Not all were present at the start, so- that those who came at 
noon were permitted to shoot up. These had the best of the I 
deal, as by the middle of the afternoon the wind became moderate. ■ 
Ihe grounds .used were a part of the old fair grounds, which, ' 
while facing east with a clear background, were yery good. 
Ihree traps. Sergeant system, were , the order of trapping. Of 
course, there was some trouble breaking in the scorefs artd trap- ' 
pers and in getting pulls adjusted, yet nearly 4„000 targets were ' 
thrown, which i.s a very good showing for a tqwn where there 
are few shooters capable of taking part in a tournament. 
Those most diiectly interested in the shoot -were W. B. Hanger, 
Ed. Erickson, J. A. Seekaatz and W. Bell. Mr. Bell is a well- 
known expert rifle shot, and at times makes very good scores with 
th-e shotgun. Mr. Seekaatz was trying a newly refinished gun, and 
did not make his usual scores. 
The traveling men were fairly well represented, especially when 
the shoot was not advertised more than ten days previous. They 
were Messrs. H. W. Cadwallader, Decatur; W. D. Stannard, and. 
Tramp Irwin, of Chicago. Tramp was requested to get busy!' 
and use the pencil instead of the gun, so he was duly installed^' 
as cashier and all-round overseer. 'When not taking in cash he] 
was adjusting the traps or keeping the squads in line. . 
Mr. Stannard was high for the professionals, and Cadwallader' 
second. ; 
A. P. Smith, the good shot of Milford, was high over all with'' 
190, beating Stannard by one target. Smith takes these streaks 
nc-w and then, and it is hard to head him off. Mr. Barkley, of 
Chicago, was a good second with 13 misses, and Mr. Winesberg 
vjas close up. The snappiest man on the grounds was Happy., 
Hooligan. Scores:

?oing the rounds: 
: Give 
a man a 10-cent cigar and he will beam all over and love you for S 
six hours; offer him the 10 cents with which to buy it for himself 
and he will throi-w it in your face. Give a man a pass to a show 
and he will call you a good fellow in all the languages at his dis- 
posal; offer him the money to buy a ticket and he will call you a 
fool. Ask a man to your home to take “pot luck” and he will 
jump at the chance; give him $2 and tell him to g-et a good meal 
at a cafe with your compliments and he will knock you down. 
The dollar is mighty, but it isn’t warm. Nothing chills hospitality 
and good fellowship more than a touch of cold metal.-— Emporia
