Capt. C. F. Kramlich writes us that on Jan. 23 and 24, 
at the Duck Farm Hotel, Allentown, Pa., there will be 
a shooting tournament. All of the first day will be 
devoted to targets, while the second day will have a live- 
bird programme. 
R 
On the Point Breeze track, Philadelphia, on Jan. 4, a 
match at 20 live birds, $20, was shot between Messrs. 
Fred Muller and Richard Lamb, Muller winning by one 
bird, 17 to 16. A match was made between these two 
contestants to shoot at 100 birds each, $ 200 , same 
grounds, on Tuesday of this week. 
R 
The Christiana-Atglen Gun Club will hold an inter¬ 
county championship and all-day tournament at Atglen, 
Pa., on Jan. 23. The programme will consist of five 
events at 15 targets, $1.30 entrance, and five at 20 tar¬ 
gets, $1.40 entrance. The latter five, total 100 targets, 
will count as the first leg in the individual trophy shoot. 
Rose system will govern, Shooting will begin at 10 
o’clock. Lunch free to the shooters. Wm. Fieles is the 
Secretary.

Two live-bird matches were held near Pottsville Pa 
“he 2 d The T tC . heS Pr ° Ved some thing contrary to 
the old saw, namely, “there is room at the top.” They 
proved that there is more room at the bottom. The 
special dispatch recounts: “The first match was between 
Lews Sterner and Fred Rabenau, both of Pottsville. 
The former won, grassing 5 out of 9 , his opponent kill- 
mg 3 out of 11 . The second match was between Joseph 
Murphy of Branchdale. and James Bendigo, of Jones¬ 
town The former won, kill 7 out of 13, Bendigo grass¬ 
ing 5 out of 14.” 6 s

A dispatch from Shamokin, Pa., to the Philadelphia 
Inquirer may be a shadow of a coming event, and 
further may show that real money i s not so scarce as 
the public seems to believe. Thus: “Following the 
defeat of Nicholas Bohr, this place, last New Year’s 
D a y, at the West End Gun Club Park, by Nathan 
Benner, Mahanoy City, who captured a $400 purse in a 
pigeon match, Roden, a local marksman, challenged the 
winner to shoot a match for $500. Benner will likely 
accept the challenge, and the match will probably take 
place here.”
