Chicago Live Bird shoot.

Chicago, Aug. Only one race was
finished in the Dupont worlds cham
pionship live bird tournament today at
Burnside, the ten-bird event This was
on account of the tremendous entry list
The nominals were forced TO a close OF
of 150 and three of the shooters could
not face the traps on account Of dark
ness. Had three sets of traps been
used, the event would have had 225 en-
tries. Over 500 shooters were in attend
ence and 1000 spectators passed
through the gates. The heat was tenn
pered by a southwest wind that made
the birds al times exceedingly difficult.
The majority of the feathened targets
were good, strong flyers. There were
many exciting incidents during the day,
the most important being the race be-
tween John kleinman and Captain A.
II. Bogardus, who held the champion
ship for so many years. Both men are
over 60 years of age and old-time COM
petitors. They shot in the same squad
at the 3 set of traps. The contest be-
tween was watched by a thousand peo-
