Dominion Tournament. 
HE seventh annual tournament of the Dominion of 
Canada ‘Trapshooting Association was held under the 
auspices of the Stanley Gun Club, of Toronto, Can., 
Aug. 7, 8 and 9. 
Ikach_ day the weather was clear, warm and calm 
favorable for tr¢ 1pshooting competition, though much of 
the time too warm for comfort. 
The grounds of the Stanley Gun Club are excellent for 
trapshooting purposes. They are more than ample in 
area, are practically level, and have a clear sky _back- 
ground, ‘they are situated nearby Ashbnidge’s Bay, a 
few minutes’ comfortable ride from the hotel district of 
the city. The shooters, when at the traps; face toward 
the bay, and thus have an unobstructed view. 
A number of tents, here and there, gave the grounds 
a cool, restful, inviting and picturesque appearance. (ne 
served as a dining tent. A large tent, erected at a 
point of vantage, served as a cool, comfortable shelter 
for the spectators. One tent was at the service of the 
press, while several others were the headquarters of the 
clubs composing the Association. 
rhree sets of traps served amply to throw the targets, 
while a fourth, some distance aw: iy, near the side of the 
grounds, was devoted to target- throwing for the Stanley 
Gun Club merchandise event, at 20 targets, a high 
re-entry match, 
he office force was ‘ample and efficient. Indeed, they 
were expert men, and thoroughly familiar with every detail 
of the work. ‘The office was in_ charge of Mr. Luther 
J. Squier, of the Dupont Co.; Mr. Alex. Dey, of the 
Dominion Cartridge Co.: Mr. Geo. R. Ginn, of the 
Winchester Repeating Arms Co., and Mr. Geo. H. Cash- 
more, of Toronto. Mr, Squier acted as cashier. Mr, 
Chas. A, North was also an active, valuable assistant, 
besides looking after the perfect Working of the Leggett 
traps 
lhe tournament was managed by Mr. Thomas A, 
Duff, and he conducted it in a masterful manner. Every- 
thing ran as smoothly as fine clock work. The unfail- 
ing good nature of the manager was reflected by 
one present. It was manifest even in his voice when he 
had occasion to roar through the megaphone at some 
gun
