The Pilefacee. 
Boston, Mass., Aug. 25.—Nothing to it but O. R. 
Dickey to-day—97 out of the 100 for high average, a 
run of over 70 straight; in fact, the majority of honors 
fell to his lot to-day, and the younger generation of trap- 
shooters were highly pleased with this show of his 
expert ability. 
Geo. Hassam cleaned the slate for the amateurs, though 
Burnes came within one of a tie. Charles and Brinley 
tied for next position with 89 to their credit. 
The Dupont cup match gave Burnes a chance to show 
his mettle, which he did to a tune of 50. Charles and 
Todd were a good second with 49 each. Clapp, Boulinger 
and Dickey tied for third with 47. Scores: 
One hundred-target event: 
Event 11 on the first day was for the Ithaca gun. It 
was won by Sam Medland with 45 out of 50 from 17yds.

Hudson Gun Club. 
jrsey City, N. J., Aug. 29.—The attendance to-day 
» not very large, owing to the shower, that set in 
thing this morning. Those who took chances on the 
i, were not disappointed, as the sun came out and 
t: its warm rays on the ten shooters who took part 
ho-day’s programme. 
>. P. M. Kling, of the Star Gun Club, of Elizabeth, 
; J„ was a visitor to-day, and led the bunch with 89 
ij cent., Schorty being the runner-up with 80 per 
rt., he using several strange guns, his own refusing 
:work properly. 
he Du Pont trophy handicap event to-day was won 
: Ed. Malcomb, he scoring 48. This event has become 
interesting for those who have taken part in it, 
t he first ten men will have to fight it out to the last 
h, as there are only a very few points between 
hn, and it is any man’s race until the last bird is 
:‘ed. 
he day was very sultry and hot after the shower, and 
: shady side of the club house was in demand, for the 
V breeze that could be found on the banks of the 
dutiful Hackensack River. 
n Sept. 12 we shoot again, and everybody is welcome 
: come and see the tar;

Aug. 25.—The amateurs had the grounds all to them¬ 
selves to-day, and proceeded to do things with the 
weather conditions all to their liking. 
One J. C. Todd was the shining star, though Charlie 
Marden, with 93, was right at his heels, and Hassam 
and Charles another target to the bad. Funny to state, 
every one of the leaders had a chance at high gun, but 
fell off just enough in the last event to drop out of 
the honor position except Todd. Hassam and Todd 
both missed as many in the last event as they had in 
the previous 80, George having a run of nearly 50, and 
Todd well over 40. 
In the Dupont trophy match Todd and Charles 
secured the honor positions, with Marden and Burnes 
a target away. This match is now taking on a serious 
aspect, as the interest is at top notch for this season 
of the year, and the scores are very

The Twenty-Eight Bore as a Game Gun. 
Macksville, Kas. Aug. 28 .—Editor Forest and Stream: 
Dear Sir—Mr. Hedderly asks in reference to the 28- 
bore, “Has anyone used it much?” Five years ago I 
began using a gun of this size from necessity, and not 
from choice, and while I have not in that time been 
able to use a larger bore at all, I find myself as keen 
to hunt doves, plover, snipe, quail, prairie chicken, 
ducks, and rabbits as ever I was with the larger bores. 
I use a 4%-pound gun and find that the added quick¬ 
ness in large measure compensates for the reduced 
killing circle. If reason did not exist for my using 
a 28-bore, I should prefer a little larger bore for the 
chickens and ducks; but for doves, quail, snipe and 
plover one has more pleasure with this narrowest bore 
than with anything larger. These things I have learned 
from experience enforced by necessity. 
I could add some little information of field experi¬ 
ences, but since this would be from memory only, it 
would be without value. This season I hope to keep 
a game register which would be more interesting.
