WESTERN TRAP. 
At Butte. 
IJt-.TTfi, Muut.. Dec. 14.— Some of the finest shooting ever wit- 
nessed in this Western mountainous country was that of the 
members of the gun ciub when they met yesterday to contest for 
the powder trophy and the Confarr medal. 
I'he best shooting was done by Nickey, who made the record 
by the remarkable score of 100 straight. This was made in four 
events of 25 .each, and gives him just that many points to his 
credit on the cup. 
Besides this, some quite phenomenal shooting was done during 
the afternoon by others. Mr. Confarr was on his mettle, getting 
.a OP the medal "and other trophies with top-notch scores. He 
made 25 straight three times, but, fell away to 22 the last time up. 
This man Smith, who is the secretary, and mainstay in holding 
the club up to its present standard, made 24 three times and 25 
once. Now where can you find three men, East or West, who 
■will excel these scores? 
Besides the above, Confarr won both the Twohy and the 
medal that he himself gave to the club. The Twohy medal contest 
is at 26 singles, and the Confarr medal at 15 singles and 6 pairs. 
The day was perfect for the sport, there being no wind and the 
sky. was overcast. This accounts for the high scores in part, yet 
it ' is time that the shooting world should awaken to the facts 
regarding perfect -shooting. The men were at their best. Shoot- 
ing men are apt to forget the men and give all the credit to the 
gun, shell and powder, when in fact, it is the “man behind the 
gun” that does the scoring; proper gun pointing beats all other 
theories. Hence it was the combination of eye, nerve and trigger 
finger that caused these most excellent scores to be recorded.

Now, honestly, did you ever read of such scores by club mem- 
bers at a home shoot? There were eighteen straight 25s, twelve 
24s and many 23s. Suppose, for instance, that some other club 
shoot the same scores and see how they will compare.

Ohio Notes. 
A NUMBER of Dayton sportsmen vished Lewisburg on Dec. 18 to 
v.'il uer.r? an elk -hunt in Uncle Joe Wilson’s park, and the victim 
was a big buck elk of his htid. Greenville epicures are to enjoy 
i. ftast on elk steaks on Christmas. 
^\'m. Orth, of Dayton, received a black bear weighing 3001bs. on 
Dec. 18, and displayed it, with the carcases of twenty deer, at his 
. place oh- West Third street. The 'oear was a present from James 
McCrainor, bi Fort Williams, Temagami, Ontario. 
A. F. Kempert, a Dayton sportsman, is in the South with a party 
of friends. He wrote that he killed two deer which were running 
side 'oy .side. 
M. -J. Schwind has accepted Ed. Rike’s defi, and the 100-target 
match will be shot on the N. C. R. grounds at Dayton. The 
lists are open to any Dayton shooter who has $10 worth of con- 
fidence in his ability to defeat the two named. Rolla Heikes will 
not enter. 
- The Goshen Gun Club proposes to send a team to do up the 
Cincinnati boys on New Year’s Day. Some of the Goshenites are 
good s'iiots and they may be able to do the trick. 
The turkey shoot held at Mason under the ihanagement of W. 
Randall and De Wise on Dec. 21 was an enjoyable affair, though 
not so well attended as had been expected. Several of the Cin- 
cinnati shooters were on hand and helped Gambeil carry home the 
241b. turkey he won. 
The officers of the Rohrer’s Island Gun Club, Dayton, held a 
meeting on Dec. 21, and it was decided to give an elaborate 
banquet in connection with the annual meeting, which will be 
held the latter part of January for the election of officers. The 
club has just closed a very prosperous year, and will soon be 
making plans for the coming season, which opens in March. 
Alert Gun Qub, 
The Alert Gun Club, of Phillipsburg, N. J., held Dec. 20, the 
largest tournament ever held in this section, and was attended by 
not only two squads of the best professionals in the world, but by 
the best amateurs from different clubs in this State as well as 
New York and Pennsylvania. 
At the Alert Gun Club first holiday tournament, Messrs. Gilbert 
and Heer tie for high professional average; Schlicher for high 
amateur average. 
The weather man was good to us, and gave us one of the finest 
days that could be manufactured by him for this season of the 
year. 
The management used every means in their power to make this 
tournament one that would be remembered by all shooters who at- 
tended, and believe that every shooter left the grounds with the 
feeling that they were well taken cafe of. 
As can be noted from the scores below, forty-two shooters par- 
ticipated in the shoot. Six thousand targets were thrown during 
the day, and everybody was off tire grounds before 6 o’clock, 
showing that with one Leggett trap in use, the management had 
everything in good working order to complete the events, which 
were twelve in number and amounted to 180 targets in all. 
The Dutch lunch which was served to the shooters seemed to 
be very much appreciated by all. 
Messrs. Gilbert and Heer gave one of the finest exhibitions of 
target smashing ever seen in this section, and at the end of the 
twelfth event it was seen that each man had lost only 8 targets. 
Closely following up these two men came' J. A. R. Elliott with 11 
misses, and next to him came Luther Squier with 17 misses. 
Messrs. Apgar, Glover, Welles, Butler, T. H. Keller, Jr, (the 
balance of the professionals with us), while they did not shoot 
up to their standard, still with their many pranks and talks to 
the shooters, made themselves not only agreeable, but made 
friends who will remember them and their goods for many days 
10 come. 
As to amateurs, we had them of the right sort, and front many 
different places, such as Allentown, Bethlehem, Bangor, Pen 
Argyl and Philadelphia, in Pennsylvania; Pattenburg, Plainfield, 
Hound Brook, .Newark, Trenton, Riegelsville and Jersey City, in 
New Jersey; and also Brooklyn and New York City, 
Mr. Howard . .Schlicher, of Allentown, Pa., took with him the 
honor of -first .amateur average, Mr. Kelly, of New Yorje, took 
the. second antateur average, and Mr. J. F. Pleiss and E F 
Marklev, of Ea’ston, P.a., divided for third amateur average. 
Mr. tlamlin, manager E. I. DuPont Go., of Philadelphia, Pa., 
arrived on the grounds too late to do much shooting. He com- 
plimented the club not only on the beaiitjful shooting grounds, but 
on the way ini which this shoot was conducted, and the large 
number of participants in same.

We had doctors on hand in case of accident.s— Dr. Lucky, Plain- 
field, N. J., and Dr. Matthews, of I'renton, N. J.— both shot 
through programme.

through Banks and Richardson. 
“We may live without poetry, music and art, 
We may live without conscience, we may live without heart,” 
We may live without banquets, clubs and such fun, 
But no civilized man can live minus a gun.” 
The Iheoi-y that “home ground” has its. advantages, was set 
aside Wednesday, wlien the Perryman tMd.) Gun Club defeated' 
tile Baltimore Shooting Association for a second time in a team 
match at the B. S. A. traps. ... 
There were seventeen men on cadi side. 1 he score was. 669 to 
690. Perryman, in addition to carrying off the inatcli, also took 
individual honor of high gun, flanks and Richardson each 
scoring 48; while Chew was high for the Baltimore team with 45. 
The race was at 50 targets a man. Promptly at the appointed time 
(2 P.M.) Malone called squad 1, and there was a buzz of excite-, 
inent as the men look their places. The scores:

Malone’s team was handicapped in several ways. The day was 
“cold and dark and dreary,” and some of Baltimore’s best shoot- 
ers, who promised to join the team, failed at the last minute to 
materialize. Substitutes were taken from the- men at the club, 
they admitting that they could not make a creditable score; but 
“the spirit was willing,” their hearts in the right place, and for 
their effort the seal of approval wa.s placed on their brows for 
life. 
The prettiest .shooting was done by Mr. Edward Banks. Although 
the targets were not rotating well, he centered every bird. 
One of the visiting sportsmen suggested having a shoot in front 
of the doors of some of the “stay at homes,” to see if they wo-ujd 
have energy and interest enough to watch the event from their 
windows, where the temperature was 72 and it would not be 
necessary to leave the depths of a Morris chair. 
The little village of Perryman seems to be able to supply more 
shooters from “long range” than Baltimore can, with a popula- 
tion of over half a million, and the club grounds only thirtv 
minutes’ ride from the center of the city. 
A State shoot, ten-man teams, Maryland vs. Delaware, is con- 
templated. Date not yet arranged.

The S'jnoy South Handicap. 
Brenkam, Texas, Dec. 18. — The Sunny South Handicap, to be 
held here Jan. 22 to 27, promises to be a great success, and the 
largest attended shoot ever held in the South. Since the dates 
were announced, many shooterss have been heard from, asking 
for programmes, and advising that they would be present. Shoot- 
ers are e.xpected from every . State and Territory in the Union, also 
a number have written from Canada, stating that it is their 
intentions to be present. The large amount of cash that, we are 
adding to t’nis shoot is enough to justify shooters to attend from 
a long distance. We fully expect to have 200 entries, and will be 
fully prepared to handle them, and shoot off the programme in 
rapid order. We will have five automatic traps in use, and squad 
hustlers that will keep things moving in the proper shape. There, 
-will be $1,500 in cash added for the amateurs, besides -high aver- 
age moneys for the professionals. All shooting will! he from the 
16yd. mark, with the exception of one open event, the Sunny 
South Handicap, at 100 targets, which will be a handicap and the 
only open event, the balance of shoot the professionals will shoot 
for the price of targets only. We are enlarging our club house, 
and everything will be in shape to keep the boys dry a^nd warm 
in case of bad weather, nothing will be left undone that will add 
to the pleasure and comfort of the attendance. The office- will be 
. in charge of our expert cashier, Mr. Fred W. Martinj Owho is 
well-known to the shooters over the country, and i.s . truly an 
v.xpert in this line. Everybody knows ivhen they see 'Fred in the 
office that things will go all right there, and that they can get 
"hat is coming fo them promptly at the close of a day’s 
programme. 
On Jan. 29, 30, 31, there '.vil! be a three-day shoot at Bay City. 
ith .$300 cash added, at the close of which a big duck hunt is the 
programme, and there are plenty of duck’s there, and tfie boys can 
shoot until their guns are hot. t 
Follo-wi-ng this, on Feb. 6 , 7, 8 , will be the Grand; Southern 
shoot at Houston, with $500 cash added, making a complete circuit. 
A special train will leave Brenham Sunday morning hftef the 
dose of the Sunny South Handicap, and take the boys qver to 
Bay City, and the railroad fare will not be over $2 for the oc- 
casion. 
There will be something doing in the Lone Star State, and 
everybody who attends these shoots will be given a good- time. 
Programmes of tj;,e three shoots will be ready in a feiy days, and 
can 'be had by addressing Alf. Gardiner. Brenham, Teis.as.

The Effect of Shot Striking Game. 
In cumiectioii with rhe experiments which are being recorded 
ill tlie Field on the patterns resulting from the employment of 
Jiffs rent cliarges, I have been requested to state from anatomical 
considerations the effects of shot striking game in different parts. 
'I'aking the diagram of the pheasant, in which the left side.Js 
shown, effective shots may be indicated as occurring jn the brain 
(A), or upper part of the back of the head, a shot in the brain 
necessarily acting instantaneously. The same would occur from a 
shot which injured the spinal column in the neck (B). A single 
shot in the under part of the neck (C), especially when near the 
bead, may wound one of the large blood vessels, either artery or 
vein, and the blood may be poured into- the windpipe, which may 
be wounded at the same time by the same shot. In tiiis case 
suffocation ensues, and the result is a towering bird, a jihdnom- 
cnon which never occur.s after a shot in the brain, as i4 often 
erroneously imagined. Coming to the anterior part of thfe body 
(. 1 )), a shot can be effective or not, according to its forfie and 
liosition. If it is sufficiently powerful and in the right direction 
to -wound the heart or any of the very large blood vessels, it may 
be effective, but a shot in the side of the body, passing into the 
large pectoral muscles which move the wings, would, unle'ss it 
liad power to pass into the interior of the body, be quite* in- 
effective in stopping the bird. The upper part of the body, rep(ion 
D, is less effectively protected than the lower, and consequently a 
shot may pass into the body when the wing is raised and woiihd 
the larger blood vessels, arteries or veins, and thus cause-^ a 
rapidly fatal injury. A shot striking the hinder part of the body 
would probably penetrate into the leg (E) — that is to say, the paJt 
from the knee to the hock — or into the still more fleshy thigh, bfey 
tween the knee and the body. In either case the flight of th| 
bird would not be imjieded, nor would the bird be stopped by » 
.single shot passing into the intestines from the side. So far aS 
regards stopping the flight of the bird, wounds in the wings are of 
great importance. There are three sections of the wing, each with" 
tlieir Miiiiropriate boiie.s. That nearest the body (F) contains the-': 
humerus (F), corresponding to the upper arm bone in man, and. 
a single shot striking it and breaking the bone would instantly; 
arrest the power of flight, although the tertiary feathers arising 
from that part of the wing are not of great importance, but the 
whole structure of the wing would be put out of action by the 
breaking of the upper bone. The second joint of the wing from 
what may be termed the elbow to the pinion (G) is the part that 
carries what arc termed by ornithologists the secondary flight 
feathers, those which are visible when the wing is closed. If the 
bones (the ulna and radius) be broken the wing is also incapable ■; 
of use, and the bird must fall. The extreme bones of the wing 
from the pinion to its extremity (H) carry the large primary 
feathers, which are most important in flight, so that the fracture 
of the bones in that portion by a single pellet, would cause in- J 
equality in the wings, and the bird, necessarily falls. 4 
In ground game the vital parts are similarly located. A shot 
in the brain is instantaneously .fatal, and as a quadruped pro- 
ceeds by the action of the hindlegs, any injury to the nervous 
sjstem in tlie spinal cord must necessarily destroy its power 
of motion. The organs in the chest are much less protected I 
than they are in the bird, inasmuch as the pectoral muscles are of J 
much smaller size, and the heart, lungs, and large blood vessels | 
arc necessarily more exposed to injury. The digestive organs, the * 
liver, stomach and intestines, fill by far the larger portion of the 
cavity of the body. These may be severely injured by shot, but 
without the effect of being immediately fatal, so that the rabbit 
may pursue its course with many shots in the abdomen. Any 
fracture of either of the bones of the four limbs is necessarily 
destructive to its power of rapid motion, and it is evident that the 
vital parts are those situated in the head and anterior portion of 
the body. As these animals are frequently shot at when running 
away from sportsmen, a shot or two going itno the large muscles 
of the hinder limbs would not stop the progress of the animal 
unless the bones were broken, whereas a single shot going into 
the head, the spinal cord, or the anterior portion of the body, so 
as to wound the heart, or large blood vessels, would be effective. 
It often happens with all kinds of game birds, and more particu- 
larly with rabbits, that a shot which will .eventually produce fatal 
results is not immediately effective. A rabbit will drag itself 
along the ground for many yards when severely wounded, and will 1 
escape into its hole. A pheasant in the same way will frequently 
fall to the ground and yet resume its flight and get away. In- 
stantly disabling shots are those which affect the brain, spinal 
cord, the heart and larger arteries, or fracture the bones of the 
wings, or cause towering by suffocation from the blood flowing 
into the lungs. It is probable that in the majority of instances 
the employment of large shot, which penetrates deeper and with 
greater force, would be more effective in producing rapidly fatal 
effects than a larger number of smaller pellets. 
It must, of course, be understood that the shooter is not in a 
position to exercise any discretion as to the particular part of a 
bird or animal’s body which his pellets will strike. On the other -4 
hand, it is quite possible that the facts here given may assist in- 
showing the approximate number of pellets with which game 
should be struck in order that one of them at least shall reach a 
spot where it may be effective. — W. B. Tegetmeier in Field
