. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. 10 f&he $veeitev anh gpavtzman [May 30, 1803. ROD, GUN AND KENNEL. Conducted by J. X. De WITT. The Ingleside Tournament. The big three day9' blue rook tournament of the San Francisco Trap Shooting Association came to a successful conolusion last Sunday afternoon. This af- fair was of more magnitude in many-ways than would first appear. The money distribution during th6 shoot was something like $6000. The general average of shooting was not as high as could reasonably have been expected.

In the first line of each individual score the results of the forenoon shoot and the first handi- cap distance will he seen. The second line gives the afternoon handic3p distance and scores.
