The Eastern Handicap. 
This event was at 100 targets, $10 entrance, handicaps 
16 to 23yds., high guns, $200 added. There were 108 
contestants. The competition was very close. C. N. 
Newcomb, of Philadelphia, and D. D. Engle, of New 
York, tied on 97 for first place. The latter had dropped 
two targets in the second 20, and one in the third 20, 
after which he ran straight. Newcomb ran his first three 
20s straight, missed one in the fourth 20 and two in the 
fifth. 20, the latter on No. 5 set of traps, where there was 
a tricky wind betimes, which was gaining in force about 
that* time. 
Dimock stood at 19yds., rather a severe penalty for 
winning the Preliminary Handicap, yet he made a good 
showing, with 87 out of 100. 
The shoot-off, between Newcomb and Engle, at 20 
targets took place about 4 o’clock. Engle missed his 
third target, which seemed then to insure a loss of the 
contest, as Newcomb was shooting in fine form and 
with much confidence. He lost his seventh, however, 
when the contest reverted to equal terms, but Engie 
immediately lost his eighth, followed by misses of his 
IGtli, 17th and 19th targets, while Newcomb ran straight 
after his single miss, finishing with 19 to 15. He was 
warmly congratulated by his many friends, who were 
present. J. Howell Hawkins, professional, scored a total 
of 98, but as the contest was amateur, his score did not 
count in the awards. 
The shooting was excellent as to performance, there 
being a remarkable number of scores of 90 per cent, or 
better, as the subjoined will show. 
Out of the 108 entrants, 55 shot for targets only, 
leaving 53 to contest for the moneys. This had its un¬ 
pleasant effects in much dissatisfaction at the small win¬ 
nings of those who paid the full entrance fee. Indeed, 
there was much justification for dissatisfaction on this 
point, inasmuch as an open tournament is no place for 
practice, and shooting for targets only merely amounts 
to practice shooting. It cheapens the competition, im¬ 
pairs the prestige of the Association, and lessens the 
interest in the tournament. There is a strong presump¬ 
tion that it lessens the attendance also. In the broad 
attempt to secure a revenue from the consumption of 
targets by permitting entrants to shoot for targets only, 
the results indicate that the Interstate Association over¬ 
leached itself. The attendance was not half of the num¬ 
ber anticipated, and had it not been for the large num¬ 
ber of professionals present, the tournament would have 
hardly been equal to an ordinary local club effort. 
Shooting for targets only is an injustice to men who

Interstate Tournament. 
attend the tournament, and who enter into the bona fide 
competition, as the shooter for-targets-only consumes as 
much rime as a bona fide competitor, and by so much 
adds to the expenses of the latter. That is to say, an 
event which could be finished in a half day. the com¬ 
petition being bona fide, may require a whole day, if men 
are permitted to join for practice only. Under the con¬ 
ditions governing this tournament—that is,, permitting 
shooters to enter for practice—the term “tournament” is 
a misnomer. It presupposes genuine competition, and 
not the mongrel medley arranged by the Interstate As¬ 
sociation. The falling off in interest in tournaments 
should cause the Association to take a broader view 
than is possible where revenue only is considered. There 
is the matter of sport as well as of money for considers 
tion. 
Following are the details of the purse: 
53 entries at $8.$424.00 
5 penalty entries for targets only at $2_ 10.00 
50 entries for targets only.
