Third Day, June 20. 
Thursday, the feature day of the tournament, was 
the pleasantest of the week, with a clear sky and bright 
sunshine in the morning. A light west wind was blow¬ 
ing in the morning, increasing in strength and blowing 
hard in the afternoon, so that the conditions were more 
difficult, and some of the shooters suffered in conse¬ 
quence. About 2 o’clock a severe rain and thunder¬ 
storm passed over the grounds, delaying the shooting 
over half an hour. The Grand American Handicap was 
almost over when the storm broke, less than 200 targets 
remaining to be shot at, and the delay caused a late 
finish. There were 377 entries in the event, and 356 
starters. The event is at 100 targets, entrance $10, and 
$500 added by the Interstate Association. Winner 
guaranteed $1,000. For the first time, this year, the pro¬ 
fessionals were barred from competing for the trophy 
or purses, and shot for targets only. The shooting was 
started pr9mptly at 9 o’clock, J. Ed. Cain, of Dayton, 
Ohio, having the honor of firing the first shot in this 
classic event, standing on the 19yds. mark. He hopes 
to have the same honor next year in his home city, and 
there are many of the shooters who are of the same 
mind. The storm sent the chances of several of the 
shooters aglimmering. This was the case with W. S. 
Hoon. Up to the last string he had dropped three tar¬ 
gets, and had a chance to win by going straight, and 
could miss one target and still get in the tie. But the 
tricky wind proved too much of a handicap, and he 
dropped into a tie on 94, losing as many targets in this 
one string as he had in the other four. When the last 
squad sheet had been recorded in the office. Mr. Shaner 
announced that W. E. Phillips, of Chicago, and H, D, 
Duckham, of Kenton, Ohio, were tied for first place on 
a score of 96, and that they would shoot off the tie im¬ 
mediately at 20 targets, over trap No. 3. This strugg e 
was expected to be a close and exciting one. but the 
hopes of the large crowd which assembled back of the 
trap were not realized, as Mr. Phillips was never in any 
sort of danger after the fifth round. He lost his 1st, 
16th and 18th targets, while his opponent dropped his 
3d, 4th, Gth 12th and 13th targets, the score being, 
Phillips 17, Duckham 15. This is the first year in which 
both the Preliminary and Grand American Handicaps 
have been decided in shoot-offs. There were fifty-three 
professionals in the event contesting for a special prize 
offered by the association. This prize, a handsome gold 
watch, was won by C. A. Young, of Springfield, Ohio, 
with 95 from the 22yds. mark. Fred Gilbert, 23yds,; 
John W, Garrett and Ed. Graham, both at 22yds.. were 
in second place with 94 each; Homer Clark, at 22yds,, 
and Del Gross, at 20yds., came next with 93. 
Among the amateurs. Max KneussI, of Ottawa, Ill., 
was second high man with 95 from the 20yds. mark, and 
took third money; W. S. Hoon, 19yds.; M. L. Lippott 
and Andy Headers, both at 17yds., were third high men 
with 94 each. There were eight 93s, eight 92s, twelve 91s 
and twenty-four 90s, making fifty-eight amateurs who 
landed in the money. 
At the conclusion of the shoot-off of the tie, the 
crowd assembled in the big tent, and the trophies were 
presented to their respective winners by Mr. J. T. 
Skelly, president of the Interstate Association and mem¬ 
ber of the Tournament Committee. Mr. Skelly was very 
happy in his remarks, and was warmly applauded by the 
shooters when he had finished. C. A. Young, the win¬ 
ner of the professional prize, could not be found on 
the grounds, and Mr. Shaner responded for him, in a 
speech which brought down the “house.” Some of the 
boys said that Charlie could have done no better himself, 
and he agrees with them. Few men can successfully 
go up against Mr, Shaner as an extemporaneous speaker, 
though the Hon. Tom Marshall will run him a good 
race for place.
