One of Forest and Stream’s alert and industrious 
office boys varied his talented business stunts on Mon¬ 
day of last week by losing a large roll of copy which 
was intrusted to him to take to .the printing office. A 
number of reports of trap shoots and other news items 
were in the lot, unfortunately. This will explain why 
said reports were not published, a loss we much regret.

The ten-man team contest, between the Watertown 
Gun Club and the Middlesex Gun Club of East Lexing¬ 
ton, Mass., was won by Watertown, 825 to 805, on its 
own grounds. Kirkwood made highest individual score, 
91. Of the Middlesex team, Griffiths was high with 87. 
In the prior contest, on Feb. 29, Watertown also was 
victor. 
In our trap columns this week there is a cut 6f the 
second annual individual championship cup of Metropoli¬ 
tan clubs, to be held by the Montclair, N. J., Gun Club, 
April 1. It is valued at $134, and was donated by Mr. 
Allan, of the Montclair, N. J., Gun Club, who also 
donated a similar cup as a prize for the championship 
last year. The cup will be on exhibition in the window 
of Schoverling, Daly & Gales, 302 Broadway. 
The five-man team contest between the New York 
Athletic Club and the Fox Hills Gun Club, on the 
grounds of the latter, was won by the New Y me Athletic 
team, 391 to 342. Each man shot at 100 targets. High 
individual score was made by Mr. G. F. Pelham, who 
thereby won the handsome silver cup, the prize of that 
performance. The return match, at a date in April, will 
be shot at Travers Island.

There seems to be a more or less prevalent belief that 
the Interstate Association trap' shooting rules do not 
apply to the new -automatic gun. Such belief is errone¬ 
ous. Rule 9, Section 2, of live .bird rules, and Rule 8, 
Section 5 of target rules, cover fully the. use, of all 
magazine guns. Whether the gun is 1 actuated by the 
hand or by gas pressure does not. affect in the least the 
magazine status of the ghn,' under the rules or otherwise. 
The-Crescent Gun Club was -victorious in the five-man • 
team .contest . with the. Yal^ tgam^ March 7, on the 
grounds of the former. The score's vYCTe 402 to 387. 
High individual Score, 87, was made by Mr. F. B. Stephen¬ 
son. ■ On the Yale-team, -the intercollegiate champion, 
Mr. M. Hebard, was high with 84. This is the first of a 
home-and-home series. The next contest between the 
teams will take place at New Haven on March 20. This 
closes up the formal Crescent Club shooting season on 
its home grounds. 
Dr. Ellis was the trophy winner in the main event of 
the Boston Athletic Association shoot, at Riverside, 
Mass., March 7. He scored 94 out of 100, ten of which 
was handicap allowance. There were ten contestants.

Glens Falls, N. Y., March 3.—Although the weather 
has been too cold and disagreeable the past few weeks

lar shoot Saturday afternoon and proceeded to smash 
targets, without regard to cold or wind. Wiltse was high 
gun with 86 2-3 per cent., while. Chapman, who is slowly
