NEW YEAR'S DAY AT NEWARK. 



NEWARK, Jan. 1.— At Erb's to dav some 200 persons watched 

 the progress rf the shooting in the d-fftrent contests. The 

 birds were a great lot of flyers. Of all tho'e shot, Ht not a half 

 dozen had to be pat by the tra<jp3rs. The shooting began at 

 11 A. M. and continued until the foirs put an end to it. At 3:30 it 

 was so dense that not a bird could be seen in the thick air. All 

 the events were of similar character, namely, 4 birds each man, 

 3 entrance, if under 10 entries, t wo$m'>neys; if over 10, three, Hur- 

 lingham rules to govern: 



First event— Chris Reiahard took first money. Castle, C. M.
