The Gun Club Tournament.

| IaSJ Illn CluD was continued Wednesday,
! July 18th, and was fully as successful as the
| first day shoot, a report of which was pub
! lished in last week s Journal. The weather
continued favorable, and few additional
visitors arrived Over 10000 clay pigeons
We're used during the tournaments about
| 4,5OO the first day and 800 the second. The
visitors stopped at the Crosby Inn, and had
the use of the Elm City Club rooms while in
the city. Excellent dinners were served on
the grounds by Lewis & York. Wednesday
Dr. Weld gave tine dinner to i party Of
friends on board his steam yacht Adeiita.
For the benefit Of such of our readers as
may not be familiar with modern shooting
We will explain that it differs materially
from the od-fa -hioued shooting match. The
birds used are made of tarthen-Ware and
resemble a common saucer. They are thrown
from traps a few rods in front Of tile marks
men and the traps are operated by boys
who are protected from the shots by an
earthwor1. The markslnen shoot at the
dying birds IN the AR. The names, straight
away, right ana left quartering, unknown
angles etc, refer to the direction in which
the birds are thrown. "A Keystone consists
of six traps; a regular keystone is when the
traps are fired m regular order reversed
Ntystone when ii ~ reversed in order
