At the Second International Clay-Pigeon Tournament, held at New Orleans, La,, Feb. 11 

 to 16, 188.5, the First Prize and Diamond Badge in the Individual Championship Match, open 

 to all the vporld, was won by B. Tiepel with a Parker gun. Among the contestants shootmg 

 other guns were such champions as Carver, Bogardus, Cody, Stubbs, Brb, and others. Dur- 

 ing the entire tournament more prizes wei'e won with Parker guns, in proportion to the 

 number used, than with any other gun. 



Huxidred^a of Prizes 



have been won with AMERICAN WOOD 

 POWDER, loaded in the following manner. 

 No. 1 represents tho exact proportion ol a Wood-Powder 

 Slioll properly wadded bol'oro the wads liave been rammed 

 down. No matter what kind of wads arc; used, the same 

 .■should be tough and hard, and the same t/iickuens of wad- 

 ding should be used as shown in these Cuts. 



Ill many Parker, Colt and other guns, wads of one or two 

 Sizos larger than boro of shell must be used, as the inner 

 diiimeter of the barrels of .such guns is from one-half to 

 tv.'o calibro larger than that of paper shells, preventing the 

 necessary confinementand causing half of the charge being 

 thrown out U7il:iiirnt. This l.s the secret of failures to get 

 the dosiroU penetration with AMERICAN 



In the absence of stronger primers than used for American 

 Shells, we advise to put a little black powder in the bottom 

 of the shell, which will generate about the .same initial heat 

 as a stronger primer and help burning the whole charge of 

 Wood Powder, even when not coufinecl as thoroughly .as 

 W. P. must be, to give best possible results when used pure. 



No. 2 represents the properly loaded cartridge. Tho 

 wads have been i timmeil down about three-eighths of an 

 Inch with two or three hard blows of a mallet or hammer 

 and a tight fitting ramming-stick, until the Wood Powder is 

 pressed into a solid mass. The shot is then put on in tho 

 ordinary way and shells crimped down tightly. For bra.ss 

 shells use wads two sizes larger than gauge. 

 1 tJp to one dram more Wood Powder may be used than black 



inu. X. powder with comfort, and increased penetration and pattern. '

CRUTTENDEN FLY ROD. 



It has Nickle Plated Patented Solid Reel Plate which prevents Reel getting fast by swelling of wood, 

 f rod should get wet. Full Kickle Plated, Patented Ferrules, allowing the wood to be used the full 

 size, thus preventing rod breaking where wood and ferrules join. Metal Tennons which prevent joints 

 getting stuck together. The entire rod is made from the best selected laneewood, left natural color, 

 varnished and polished. This makes a handsome finish, and is less liable to be seen by the wary fish 

 than a dark rod. The butt is wound with cane and sUk in an artistic manner, which not only gives it 

 the appearance, but also the feeling of the high-priced rods. The complete rod has a look of beauty, 

 which is a joy to every fisherman's heart while using it. It is well and neatly ringed throug:hout, ana 

 has an extra winding between each ring. There has been so many rods made of an inferior quality 

 that resemble this, that all from this date will have stamped on reel plate "W. H. Cruttenden," and none 

 genuine unless so stamped. Length, lOJ^ft; weight, 9}^ to lOozs. All the parts are interchangeable, and 

 if, by accident, any part should get broken, can send duplicate without rod being returned. The best 

 made rod in the United States, and we wiU guarantee it in every way. With short tip it makes an excel- 

 lent bass rod. Sent to any part of U. S. in case, 1 bass, 1 trout tip, prepaid, for $5.35; bass tips, $1.00; 

 trout tips, $1.25. General agent for Card's Rotating Trap. Gims, Kstols and Fishing Tackle . Gunmak-
