MISSED ONE BIRD.

Brewer' the Pigeon Shooter Made Re-
markabIe Record at Marion Yesterday.
The record of the series of three con-
tests between the crack pigeon shooters
Captain Brewer of Philadelphia, and J.
A. r. Elliott of Kansas City. was decided
yesterday. The shoot was on the grounds
Of the Jersey City Heights Gun Club at
Marion aud attracted five or six hundred
spectators. Hundreds Of pot hunters col
lected outside the pond TO bring down the
birds that escaped the lead from the guns
Of the accurate wing shots. The pot
hunters had to content themselves with a
bird pattie instead of a pie, as few
pigeons escaped. Brewer missed but one
in his hundred. Elliott was nervous and
missed eight. Brewers score has been
equalled twice. Baudle killed 100 birds
without miss at Cincinnati on Decem-
Der 25, 1888, and Captain Bogardus killed
90 out of 100 at Coney Island OH July 2,
1890 Brewer lost his SEVENTEEN bird, an
easy one, through carelessness. Brewer
won the first match in shooting of a tie
The third and last shoot will take place
tomorrow afternoon at Marion. The
shoot will begin at one O'Clock.
