The next shoot of the Hudson Gun Club of Jersey City 
is fixed to take place on Jan. 29. 
* 
Arrangements have been made for a team contest be¬ 
tween the Crescent Gun Club, of Whitehouse Station, 
N. J., and the Star Gun Club, of Elizabeth, in connec¬ 
tion with the tournament to be given by the Crescent 
Club on Feb. 11. 
Secretary Maltby W. Conover writes us that Freehold, 
N. J., Gun Club will hold a target tournament on Jan. 
2(>, cffmmencing at 1 o’clock. The program will have 
a total of 200 targets, $16 entrance, class shooting. 
* 
By a total of 414 to 379, the Orange Gun Club de¬ 
feated the Essex County Country Club in a team con¬ 
test, ten men on a side, 50 targets per man. This was 
the first contest of a home-and-home series. The next 
contest will take place on the grounds of the Country 
Club in March. 
* 
Capt. C. C. Birdsall, Central Valley, N. Y., under 
date of Jan. 16, writes us that “We have just organized 
the Central Valley Rod and Gun Club, whose object is 
to co-operate with the other gun clubs of this section in 
stocking and protecting the streams and ponds, and in¬ 
cidentally to do a little shooting.’’ 
* 
From press reports we learn that John Parker, famous 
as a trapshooter and athlete, died in Detroit, on Jan. 13. 
He was for many years a successful trade representative 
of ammunition' manufacturers. His many friends will 
mourn his death, for he was a man of amiable disposi¬ 
tion, loyal in his friendships, and industrious and able 
in his profession.

At a live-bird shoot of the Pottsville, Pa., Game and 
Fish Protective Association, Jan. 14, Fred Coleman, the 
famous expert, scored 25 out of 26. A two-man team 
contest, between Joseph Holahan and Frank Clemens 
on the one side, and John K. Schim and James Lynch 
on the other, 10 birds per man, the former won by the 
margin of one bird. The scores: Holahan 5, Clemens 4; 
Schim 5, Lynch 3. 
The contest for the E. C. cup resulted in a victory for 
the renowned shooter, W. R. Crosby, of O’Fallon, Ill., 
in his match with Lester S. German, of Aberdeen, Ill. 
Crosby scored 121; German, 116. The weather condi¬ 
tions were distinctly unfavorable. However, the cup is 
a very illusive treasure, and flits about most unexpected¬ 
ly, as the record of it will show. 
The annual financial statement of the New York Ath¬ 
letic Club shows that its trapshooting branch is the 
only one of the thirteen branches promoted by the club 
that supported itself and paid a profit. There was a 
balance of $574.68 to trapshooting credit. All the others 
showed a deficit ranging from a few hundreds to a 
few thousands of dollars.
