DRIVERS AND TWISTERS. 
The Berkshire Gun Club, of Pittsfield, Mass., has 
changed the dates of its registered tournament from 
May 28 and 29 to May 29 and 31. 
*1 
The strong winds of last Saturday were a bear argu¬ 
ment on the scores, as there was a general slump in the 
averages of the day, made at the various club contests 
in the East. 
K 
Members of the Montclair, N. J., Gun Club journeyed 
to Whitehouse, N. J., on March 20, to engage in a ten- 
man team contest, 50 targets per man. The totals were: 
IMontclair, 422; Whitehouse, 402. 
No straight scores were made at the shoot of the Bel¬ 
mont, Gun Club, Narberth, Pa., March 20, the event 
being at 15 birds. There were eleven entrants. McFall 
was high with 14, while Eastern and Ball tied on 11 
for second. 
>5 
We are advised that the cash and prizes added to the 
events of the Mississippi State tournament, to be held 
at Vicksburg, April 26-28, amount to $700. Competition 
is open to the amateur world. Professionals will shoot 
for targets and special prizes. 
A return match will be shot on April 3, between teams 
of the Hamilton, Ont., Gun Club and the Buffalo Audu¬ 
bon Gun Club, on the grounds of the latter. Later in 
April the Audubon Club will contest with the Stanley 
Gun Club, of Toronto, in a team match. 
•I 
Mr. Andy Ballantyne was high in the 100-target event 
at the shoot of the Highland Gun Club, Edge Hill, Pa., 
last Saturday. He scored 90 out of the 100, and 48 out 
of his first 50, notwithstanding the high wind. He won 
the prize in Class A, while Pflegar won-first in Class B 
with 87. 
In the club event, 25 targets, four, Anderson, Murdock, 
Walters and Warner, tied on a full score of 25. In the 
shoot-off, Anlderson and Murdock tied again. In the 
second shoot-off, ). H. Anderson made a straight score 
and won the silver spoon, emblematic of high gun in 
this event. 
An eight-man team contest was decided on Saturday of 
last week between the Cranford, N. J., Gun Club and the 
Fox Hills Country Club, of Staten Island, on the grounds 
of the latter. The home team was victorious by a score 
of 566 to 542. -Each man shot at 100 targets, in strings 
of 25. The Essex County Club has arranged to contest 
with the Fox Hills Golf Club on Saturday of this week. 
K 
Capt. A. M. Dalton writes us as follows: “The Tuck- 
ahoe Gun Club will hold regular shoots on the first and 
third Saturdays in each month. The club grounds are 
easy. of access and. admirably situated on the crest of a 
hill, looking north down the Bronx valley. From this 
elevation the targets are thrown against an all-sky back¬ 
ground. Gun lovers are cordially invited to come up 
and smash a few. Take Harlem Division train to Crest- 
wood.” 
The $5 event at 7 birds, handicap, at the shoot of the 
Penrose Gun Club, Philadelphia, March 20, sixteen en¬ 
tries, shows an extraordinary number of birds which 
were lost out of bounds, 31 out of 160 being scored with 
an *, which idenotes such loss. Fast birds and a high 
wind made difficult shooting. Wyngate was high with 
9 out of 10. Paul, Box, Murphy and Felix tied on 8 . 
In the $2 miss-and-out, ten entries, Lawler and Wyngate 
tied on 14. In a 10-bird event, $10 entrance, four entries, 
Hess and Paul tied on straight scores. Felix and Law¬ 
ler scoring 9 and 7 respectively. 
Secretary Wm. Fielis, Atglen, Pa., has sent out the 
following announcement: “The Christiana-Atglen Gun 
Club will hold a target shoot on Thursday, April 8 . 
Shooting starts promptly at 1 P. M. The programme 
will be one event of 100 targets, entrance $5. Money 
divided, percentage system, one money for every three 
entries. Targets one cent each, deduction from the 
entrance. The race will be shot in five strings of twenty 
birds. No shooting up after the second string is shot. 
Shells for sale on the grounds.” 
A high northwest wind, which swept merrily about 
the grounds of the Crescent Athletic Club, Brooklyn, on 
Saturday of last week, was not conducive to high scor¬ 
ing on the part of the contestants. Nevertheless, Mr. F. 
B. Stephenson scored 23 from scratch in the contest for 
the March cup, and scored a leg thereon. The final con¬ 
test for this cup will take place on April 3, as Saturday 
of this week will be devoted to the great team contest 
of the New York Athletic Club and the Crescent Athletic 
Club. 
K 
In the great monthly shoot, held by the S. S. White 
Gun Club, at Holmesburg Junction, Pa., March 20, the 
handicap event at 25 targets resulted in full scores by 
Messrs. George Griffiths, Patrick, Pratt, Fontaine, New¬ 
comb and McCarty, the latter two shooting from 
scratch. Mr. Watson Harper was high with 24 in Class 
A of the class challenge cup event, Appleton was high 
in Class B with 22, Patrick took Class C win with 20, 
and Kunkle scored 16 in Class D and was high. Can¬ 
trell scored 18 out of 20 in the special prize event at 10 
pair. 
tt 
The first contest for the $250 cup presented by Presi¬ 
dent James Haslin, was a special feature of the weekly 
shoot held by the New York Athletic Club on Saturday 
last. There were thirteen entrants for it. The first leg 
was scored by Mr. N. Z. Lenane, after shooting off a tie 
on 25 with Dr. De Wolfe, the tie scores being 23 to 21. 
All told, the series for the president’s cup will consist of 
five shoots. As there will be no shoot held by the New 
York Athletic Club on Saturday of this week, because 
of the team contest with the Crescent Athletic Club, the 
special contest will be held on March 31, on which day 
the Ossining, N. Y’., Gun Club visitors, it is said, will 
add to the activity of the competition. The leg for the 
March cup was won by Mr. Lenane, with 25. For final 
possession, there was a shoot-off between Messrs. N. Z. 
Lenane, T. J. O’Donohue, Jr., and G. W. Kuchler, the 
latter winning by a score of 24 to Lenane’s 23 and 
O’Donohue’s 22 .

ers to-day in attelidance. It was a regular shoot, and
