April 17.—The second of the home-and-home matches 
between the New York A. C. and the Crescent A. C. took 
place at Travers Island, April 17, and resulted in a 
victory for the Winged Foot by a margin of 70 targets. 
Three weeks ago, when the teams met at Bay Ridge, the 
Crescents were the winners by 50 targets, so that the 
New Yorks won the series by 20 targets. This finishes 
the interclub matches between the Winged Foot and 
New Moon clay pigeon experts for the season. 
In order to get the advantage of the good light the 
teams waited until the sun came out, and then went at 
their work in real earnest. The teams were made up of 
twenty-five shooters a side, and each man shot 100 targets. 
These were disposed of in rounds of twenty-five, and 
while the shooting lasted there was a continuous fusillade. 
Early in the fray Frank Hall, of the New York A. C., 
showed that he was out for a big score. In his first 
round he missed 3 easy ones, but he dropped only one 
on the second round. His nerve became steadier as he 
went along and for the second 50 targets he made a clean 
score, shattering every target in great style. 
G._ Fred Pelham opened the race auspiciously by a 
straight tally of 25, but he did not do so well afterward, 
though he quit with the good total of 94. F. H. Schauf- 
fler and C. W. Billings finished level, both cracking 93 
out of the century. Out of the 2.500 targets possible 
the Winged Foot men broke 2,088 to 2,018 for the 
Crescents. 
J. C. Fairchild and W. C. Damron, of the Crescent 
team, were the high guns, both with 93, the former hav¬ 
ing a straight 25 in his third round. W. Peabody, Jr., 
broke 92, and three were tied with 91, H. M. Brigham, 
S. B. Stevenson and A. R. Allen.

Bergen Beach Gun Club. 
Brooklyn, N. Y.—“Only a spot” in the trapshooting 
fraternity in these great United States of America for 
the enjoyment of the many members and guests 
gathered_ here at the monthly shoots in keen, healthy 
competition at the flying targets, in addition to the 
weekly Saturday practice shoots. “Only a spot” where 
no discrimination is shown in the supply of loaded 
ammunition on sale, and every manufacturer’s goods 
gets a square deal. Where targets are thrown hard and 
strong to the regular limit. No little pop-ups for mak¬ 
ing great records by shooters of mediocre ability. But 
consider the results of the practice here, the past few 
years in competition in the cosmopolitan, metropolitan 
and amateur championships, and the N. Y. S. S. A. 
team and individual contests. If one would look back 
at his files of Forest and Stream, he would note that 
the members of the B. B. B. organization are in front 
or very near it. 
Tuesday, April 13, was the date on which the fourth 
contest for the J. H. Hendrickson and club trophies 
took place. Forty shooters lined up and pulverized or 
missed, approximately, 7,000 targets and about 4,000 
loaded shells were sold. The weather was all that could 
be desired, the wind veering from south to southeast, 
beating down the flight of the targets, making high 
scores somewhat easier than usual. 
The highest total of 3 selected scores of five contests 
wins the donated prizes in each class. A, B and C stand¬ 
ing at 18, 17 and 16yds., respectively, with the exception 
of two of our Class A members who shoot from the 
19yds. mark as a penalty of previous winnings at our 
shoots. Our grounds are on the edge of the meadows 
that drain into Jamaica, and nature awakened on this 
day of spring. Thousands of garter snakes showed them¬ 
selves in the sun, and St. Patrick Schneider banished a 
few. One found its way to the capacious overcoat 
pocket of our boss trapper, Sam_. How, deponent saith 
not, but our dark-complected friend don’t like snakes, 
and it was worth while watching him holding his ancient 
Benjamin by the lower end and vigorously shaking for 
more to drop out. 
But one contest remains, that of May 11, and then, 
when the smoke clears away, the prizes will be 
awarded.

John Hendrickson topped the score, shooting a single- 
• barrel gun, which he had only used the third time. 
Mr. Palmer fudged badly in his third 25, but finished 
out with his_ last 25 straight but was held even with 
our John’s similar figure. Mr. Leahy started well, but 
in his second 25 broke badly. This finished the day 
for the triple B’s.

Mountain View Gun Club. 
Troy, N. Y,, April 17.—To-day the usual weekly shoot 
was held. The club had as their guests J. S. Fanning, 
T. H. Keller, Jr., and H. S. Welles. 
Twenty-one gunners shot in the events, and good 
scores were made. 
The weekly leg for the Hunter Arms Co. trophy was 
won by Crowley, he scoring 41 out of 50—this with his 
handicap of 7 added targets, gave him a total of 48. 
Sanders broke 138 out of 150, and secured high' gun 
honors. 
Fanning was high among the professionals, he scoring 
89 out of 100. 
Milliman shot a strange gun and broke 89 out of 100. 
Fred is undecided about purchasing a Smith or a Fox 
Gun. We expect to have a big shoot on April 23 and 24.

Montclair vs. Princeton. 
Some of the members of the Montclair, N. J., Gun 
Club visited Princeton on Saturday, April 17, to shoot 
a return match with Princeton University team. But 
four of the Princeton team were able to take part, and 
so_ two of their men shot at 100 targets each as against 
50' for each of the other competitors. Montclair was 
the victor by the close margin of one target._ The match 
was noticeable for the good work of Wight, of the 
Princeton team, and Colquitt and Guenther, of Mont¬ 
clair. Scores:
