shoot of the Montclair, N. J., Gun Club, last Saturday, 
was won by Mr. I. Seymour Crane, after shooting off 
a tie with Secretary Edward Winslow. 
* 
On account of Tuesday of this week being a holiday, 
Forest and Stream went to press on Monday, a day 
earlier than usual, consequently the publication of many 
esteemed communications is necessarily held over till

VL 
A target match, 25 targets, $10, was an interesting 
feature of the weekly shoot of the Smith Gun Club, 
Newark, N. J., Feb. 19. Messrs. E. Bedford and John 
Schmidt were the principals in this contest, the former 
winning by IS to 17. 
At a live-bird shoot near Shamokin, Pa., on Feb. 19,

Strongly represented, Siegfried, of Selinsgrove, was alone

were shot. Fulton was first in each event with a full 
score.

Close competition was a feature of the Crescent Ath¬ 
letic Club s weekly shoot, on the Bay Ridge grounds,

scored by Mr. F. B. Stephenson with 23, made from 
scratch. The former club champion, Mr. IT. L. Brig¬ 
ham, broke 25 straight from scratch in each of two trophy 
events, and 15 straight in the scratch shoot. Mr. G.

The Oak Brook Gun Club, near Reading, Pa., held a 
live bird and target shoot on Feb. 19. The first event 
was a match between Mr. John B. Kurtz, of Reading, 
and Mr. Lee Wertz, of Temple, for $10 a side, the latter 
winning by a total of 10 to 9. In a 5-bird sweepstake 
which followed, they killed straight. 
The Highland Gun Club, whose grounds are at Edge 
Hill, Pa., began a series of shoots on Saturday of last 
week, as a side attraction to the regular program. The

ners. There are four classes, A, B, C, D, having respec¬ 
tively a silver berry spoon, a gold watch fob, a pair of

February cup contest. Mr. O. C. Grinnell was first tor 
the February cup. Dr. Brown was first with 24 for the

numerous ties.

We take the liberty to quote the following from a 
personal letter addressed to us by Capt. A. W. Money, 
dated at Portree, Isle of Skye, which shows that the 
noble Captain is enjoying himself with dog and gun: 
“I have been up here for four months, and it seems like 
four weeks. This is really a sportsman’s paradise, and 
I have been shooting a good average of five days a 
week, or more, the sixth day being usually utilized for 
fishing. The variety of game is very great, and the 
extent of shooting, which, when I first came up, was 
23,000 acres, but was increased to 30,000, means that one 
need seldom go over the same ground unless he wished. 
I have been shooting game better than I ever did before 
in my life, which seems strange; but I bought a triplet 
of guns when I first came over, that simply seem to 
drop on to what one shoots at of their own volition.” 
Captain Money further mentions that he and Mrs. Money 
will return to the United States in the near future, with 
a purpose to make his home in Memphis, Tenn.

Florida Gun Club. 
Palm Beach, Fla., Feb. 14.—The shooting to-day was 
a sweep at 25 birds: Allen, 28yds., 20; Upson, 30yds., 
22; Benkard, 29yds., 19. 
In a sweep at 10 birds, Upson killed 8, Allen 7. 
In the next sweep of 10 birds, Allen killed 10 straight 
and Upson finished with 9. 
Allen shot very well to-day, but was unfortunate and 
lost 4 birds dead just out of bounds. 
Edwards tried 50 targets and finished the round with 44. 
There will be a handicap on Wednesday for a hand¬ 
some cup, presented by E. H. Fittler, and another on 
Saturday for a handsome cup presented by H. Allen. 
Feb. 15.—The scores following were made in a special 
match of 15 birds this morning for a purse: Christian, 
29yds., 14; McKnight, 27yds., 11; Crosby, 28yds„ 12. 
Mr. Christian had his eye on the birds. They could 
not beat him, although he drew some good fast ones. 
Both McKnight and Crosby shot well, as they each 
killed straight after the sixth round. 
In a round of 50 targets, Edwards had a score of 46. 
Mr. Edwards is very much interested in shooting, and 
spends his mornings at the gun club in practice. 
In the sweeps of 5 birds, $5 entrance, Knapp, 
Stafford and Upson tied in the first with 5 each. In 
the shoot-off, miss-and-out, Upson won first money and 
Knapp and Stafford divided. 
In the second, same conditions, Caruthers, McFadden 
and Upson tied with 5 kills and divided. 
In the third, same conditions, McFadden won first 
money with 5 kills. Knapp, Stafford and Upson divided 
with 4 each. 
In the fourth, same conditions, Knapp, Upson, Stock 
and Mrs. Goodrich tied with 5 kills each, and in the 
shoot-off, miss-and-out, Knapp, Upson and Mrs. Good¬ 
rich divided on 4 kills each. Mrs. Goodrich made some 
beautiful seconds. W. A. H. Stafford acted as referee. 
Feb. 16.—The shoot to-day was a handicap at 20 
birds, $10 entrance, for the E. H. Fittler cup, value 
$100. Eleven shooters faced the traps. 
Carruthers, at 20yds., killed straight and tied with 
Fitler, who had a handicap of one miss as no bird and 
killed. In the shoot-off, at 3 birds each, Carruthers 
killed straight and won, Fitler missing his second bird. 
Knapp and McFadden tied with 19 kills each, McFadden 
having a handicap of one miss as no bird and one 
miss as a kill. They divided. The scores finished stood: 
Carruthers, 29yds., 23, first, cup and $33; second, Fitler, 
29yds., 22, $44; Knapp, 31yds., and McFadden, 28yds., 19 
each, divided third, $22. 
The grand stand was crowded, it being the largest 
attendance of visitors of the season. The birds were a 
good lot, and Carruthers’ shooting was excellent and a 
very popular win. W. A. H. Stafford acted as referee. 
There will be a cup shoot on Saturday, a handicap for 
the H. Allen cup, and one on next Wednesday, for the 
D. A. Upson cup. Wm. Dietsch, Mgr.

shoot, and the event for the James trophies, each of 25 
targets; and 15 straight in the scratch shoot. F. B.
