Shot at. (Special to the Eagle.) Although Harry M. Brigham won the October Cup in the Crescent A. C. target tournament at Bay Ridge, Captain Albert W.

Money, the veteran who has figured in more matches at the traps than any other man living, made the best average in shooting over the magau trap. Brigham had the second best average at that style of shoot. In shooting over the expert traps neither Money nor Brigham landed In front but first and second places were taken by McKenzie and Rhett respectively. McKenzie only took part in one 25 bird event and, with an allowance of 10, he managed to score the limit and then retired on his laurels for the balance of the month. Money, Brigham and Marshall did the most shooting during the month'.

Not counting the handicaps, Brigham shot at 765 argets, Marshall at 620 and Money 565. In all nearly 6,000 targets were trapped during the month. Twenty two shooters took part in the cup and trophy events at the magautrap and twenty seven at the expert traps. All these contests were handicap events, the allowances being shot out instead of added. In the sweepstake events, all scratch, both at the Magau and expert traps, eeventeen shooters took part.

The first shoot for the November cup will be held next Saturday, commencing at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. The full record for October follows: CUP AND TROPHY EVENTS; HANDICAP' MAGAUTRAP. Name. Shot at. Broke, tw r.rt C.

It was through no fault ot Mars Cassidy, however, that the send offs were so bad. It was due to the faulty construction of the. Barrett starting barrier, which worked by fits and starts, and caused a series of mix ups, and demoralized the boys so that they were actually afraid to late the infernal machine.

An improvement had been made in releasing the barrier. The starter sprung a catch yesterday in place of having two men at each end of" the barrier to release it. In the third race, however, so slowly did the barrier work that Emma A. M. got caught in its meshes and it wound around her legs.

As Emma was in motion something had to give. Emma kept on going and finally the stanchions on the rail side of the track gave way with a crash.

October 30 The Yale 'varsity foot ball team and first substitutes as they will play in the big games with Harvard and Princeton on November 13 and 16, respectively, seem to now be finally picked, barring unexpected changes or accidents.

The ground for this opinion is that a special 'varsity traininsr table has been started at the New Haven House with fourteen men, while the other players, who compose the second team, and have heretofore been at the same training table, are left by themselves at the old place on College street. The captain of the second team has not yet been appointed.

Cassidy was so mad that he could not express himself in words.

Later on in the afternoon the stewards of the meeting. W. S.

Representatives of HA rvey Parker and George Bothner met yesterday and tried to arrange a match, but failed to corns to an agreement on the weight question.

Had the latter plant been a paying institution it is sate betting that Jimmy would not retire at this time.

Hempstead, L. October 30 There is great rejoicing among the fox hunting set of the Meadowbrook Hunt Club, for yesterday a real live fox was run to cover and killed. There are two hunting sets in the club. One goes In for drag hunts exclusively, and says that there is more sport and better jumping when you lay out the course than there is in chasing foxes.

The other set says that it's easy enough to follow the hounds when you know exactly where they will lead, and, beside, there is not half the sport in chasing an inanimate anise seed bag as there is in following a fox over hill and dale.

This is conceded to be a very true saying, and it applies to Jimmy Sheckard, the left fielder of the Brooklyn team. Every follower of base ball knows of th fine showing made by Sheckard during th past season. Since Sheckard joined' the professional ranks he has made, rapid strides to the front, both in fielding and batting. Back in 1897, Sheckard was the recognized leading batsman of the New England League, having an average that season of .370. Sheckard took part in 107 games, scored llT runs, and had 52 stolen bases to his credit.

Hickey, who played with Sheckard on the Brockton team, was first on the list of batters, but he is not entitled to the honor of being leading batsman, as he took part la but 25 games. Sheckard was not up to the standard as a fielder while in the New England League, but since he became a member of the major organization he has become one of tha grandest outfielders in the country.

After a merry chase through a wooded country, where at limes the hounds would be confused, the fox was finally run to cover near llanhassett. The American pack was used and nine Tennessee foxhounds made their initial appearance on Long Island and ran well, carrying the scent easily and running in a well bunched pack.

Herman Duryea was acting master of fox bounds, and there were about a dozen others in the field. Merwln smith. Launches Suzanne, Willis Hutcheson; Brosley, Bank Xo. 2. Vanma.

Then he was meeting a group of maidens and could hardly keep up with the leaders and at the end was unplaced. Yes terday he forced Glennellie to stretch her neck, and beat the. third horse, Kingstelle five lengths for the place. The maiden three year olds and up non left are a pretty poor lot, and. as the races for horses which have never won are for all ages, letting in two year olds, the chance of the older division winning are very slight.
