SEA GIRT SHOOTING TOURNAMENT. 
The great tournament, given by the National 
Board for Promotion of Rifle Practice, National 
Rifle Association of America and New Jersey 
State Rifle Association, which began on Monday 
of this week, starts out auspiciously as one of 
the greatest tournaments ever held in America. 
Elaborate competitions are provided for rifle, 
carbine, revolver and pistol. All the different 
events are well filled in respect to number of 
entries, and the different sections of the United 
States are well represented in the competition 
also. If favorable weather prevails, the quality 
of the competition will doubtlessly be of a high 
order in respect to skill and excellence of the 
scores. The tournament this year, as in years 
past, is admirable in its executive officers. The 
Executive officer of the National matches is 
Lieut. Col. Peter S. Bourns, 6th Cavalry U. S. 
A., and the Executive officer of the N. R. A. and 
N. J. S. R. A. matches is Brigadier-General 
Bird R. Spencer. Inspector-General Rifle Prac¬ 
tice, New Jersey. 
Forest and Stream will publish a full report 
of all the different matches. 
WILD SHOTS. 
Apropos of the recent Andre-Negrier duel, 
the Paris Figaro sought the views of a man who 
had the reputation of an expert on the field of 
honor. He at once began to rail at duels with 
pistols. He could not bear even to speak of 
them. The fact was that he had once himself, 
at an encounter of that kind, received a ball in 
the shoulder. 
“Then you disapprove of them simply because 
you were defeated?" 
“Why, I was not defeated.” 
“What!” 
“No; I was a second! You may well believe 
that I promised myself never to mix again in 
affairs of that sort. However, one day I had 
to accompany a friend on the field. He had 
asked it of me as a personal favor; I could not 
refuse. But I insisted upon one condition.” 
“What was that?” 
“That I should climb a tree during the firing." 
“A good scheme.” 
“You think so? Well. I was wounded again; 
my friend fired in the air!”—Evening Post.
