 l Members of the New Haven Gun club 1 entertained some distinguished guests at it's tournament held yesterday on the
 club grounds at Schuetzen park. Among l them was J. A. Tanning, Of New fork and San Francisco, one or the crack shots who went to England With the | team of ten Americans, and who mas
 just returned home, full of interesting
 stories of the shooting match across
 the pond." Another was E. c. Grif- | fiths, of Pascoag, R. l., who won the
 champion Grand American handicap on | live pigeons and also on targets, MT
 Inman, friend of his, came along, too,
 to spend the day, and they had a lot or
 sport, besides furnishing local marks l men with few points on style, etc.
 The crack shot of the day, on highest average, twas B. w. Clardge, of the
 Winchester Repeating Arms company.
 He was in fine form and made some re-
 markable scores. There were about
 twenty-five present, and Pop" Garnett
 served one of his famous chlcken-ple
 dinners Bassett & Reeves supplied the
 ammunition, which probably accounts
 for the good scores.
 l Shooting began at a. m. and contln-
 ued until supper time. The day was ideal for the sport the wind gauge was
 scarcely regarded, the clouds came Ill
 between the sunshine, and the marks
 men made the most of the taVoraple
 conditions. The tournament was under
 the management of these directors: B. ! w. Claridge, F. J. Potter, George h. Ortsefer, F. L. Isbell and John E. Bas-
 sett There were fifteen events in all'
 nine at ten targets, five at flfteen tar
 gets and one at twenty targets. Then,
 to wind the thing up in proper shape, 1 there was an extra event on live palrS | doubled. and a ''miss-and-out race. In | the latter event GriffithS broke all
 hearts with six straight and ran away
 with S3.S5 in coin of the realm, mostly
 pennies. Here are the events, targets and scores:
