THE SARATOGA TOURNAMENT.- The applications are 

 coming very fast for the pr. gramme of the Saratoga tournament, 

 and what is most surprising of all, fr >m such distant points as 

 Florida, Minnesota, Kansas, Virginia, Illinnis, etc. It certainly 

 looks as if it would be a grand gathering of the trap shooting 

 brothers of the country. The management is most liberal. The 

 grounds are the finest for developing good shooting, comfort and 

 convenience. Then after the day's sport a lovely town full of at- 

 tractions and pleasure!-, best of accommodations-scaling from $1.50 

 to $10 per day. Our Mineral Springs are well worth tbe visit alone. 

 A hearty and hospitable welcome awaits all sportsmen. So come 

 one and all. There will be two sets of five Keystone traps, and 

 one set of three for tics, etc. Splendid sky background. Send 

 for programme and be convinced. Best of refreshments on 

 grounds, good shelter, and plenty of seats. Don't forget the 15th, 

 16th and 17th of July.— Buck.

 !i0 at the end of each day's shoot. Programmes will he ready in 

 about one week. Those desiring programmes will please send 

 name and address to W. H. Wolstencroft, Frankford, Philadel- 

 phia, Pa. 



MONTREAL, July 5.— There is going to be what may be called 

 a boom in trap shooting at the Athletic Club house grounds dur- 

 ing the present month, and the destruction of bluerocks will be 

 appalling. The matches begin to-day and extend to the end of 

 the month, the prizes being two beautifully mounted caribou 

 heads. The conditions of the matches will be 30 bluerocks from 

 a single trap throwing in five angles. In the open match the first 

 prize will go to the best single score made during the month, and 

 the second prize will be for a distinct handicap match. These 

 shoots will continue every Thursday and Saturday during the 

 month, on whicb occasion there will be a competent referee pres- 

 ent. 



N1LES, O., July 4.- The gun tournament closed its three days' 

 meet to-day. It was well attended and the sport very interest- 

 ing. To-day's events comprised eight matches at bluerocks and 

 two at live birds. In all live bird shoots the entry fee was $3; 

 bluerocks, $1. The prizes were 40 per cent, to first, 30 per cent, to 

 second, and 20 per cent, to third, 10 per cent, to fourth. The 

 tournament was a decided financial success. 



WELLINGTON, Mass.. July 5.— To-day witnessed nearly as 

 large a gathering at the Wellington traps as were there yesterday. 

 In tbe merchandise match these scores were made: Dodge 13, 

 Bowkerl6 Beaudry 18, Cht se 15. Bennett 15. Adams 15. Porter 11, 

 Perry 16, Genrke 7, Stanton 10, Knowl* s 17, Bradbury 13, Smith 13, 

 Bradstreet 11, Dill 9, Bond 15, Webster 13. 



Every week we are obliged to defer to the next 

 week trap scores which come in too late for pub- 

 lication in the current issue. It is particularly re- 

 quested that scores be sent us as early as possible. 



MONTREAL, July 3.— The St. John's Gun Club competition was 

 certainly one of the most successful events held on Dominion Day. 

 The shooting was started by a general individual, sweep, tbe 

 prizes being carried off by members of the different gun clubs 

 represented. The grand event of the day was the team compe- 

 tition for a cup. Five teams were entered, and the following are 

 the scores: Cote St. Paul 50, scratch team called St. Louis 54, St. 

 John's team No. 1 53, Iberville 48, St. John's team No. 2 retired. 

 The Cote St. Paul was very much pleased with the manner in 

 which they were received and entertained by the St. John's club 

 who, although defeated, appeared to vie with each other in tbe 

 endeavor to make everything pleasant for the visitors. This is 

 the first defeat for the St. John's club during the present year, 

 although they have competed on five previous occasions. 



TORONTO, July 3.— The members of tbe West Toronto Junc- 

 tion Gun Club shot their last competition for tbe handsome trophy 

 given by the club. This competition has been held every fort-

 T. Bnswell, 1>. Beatty. D. AValton, P. Wakefield, D. Walton, W.

 Dowall gold medal lor tbe highest total score. The fnllowjng are 

 yesterday's scores: W. T. G. Club trophy, value |80, 25 bluerocks, 

 handicap. 18 to 24yds.: W. Dodge .20, C. Hinton 16, T. Bnswell 16,

THE A. C. A. MEET. 



CAMP CIRCULAR. 



New York:, June 25. 

 To the Members of the American Canoe Association: 



Since the executive committee meeting, Nov. 23 1889, at which 

 the camp-site committee were authorized to procure tbe use of 

 Jessup's Neck for the A. C. A. meet, the work of the com- 

 mittee has been seriously complicated by a long and vexatious 

 course of negotiations among the owners, involving a sale of a 

 part of the property. These negotiations have been closed to-day 

 satisfactorily to our interests, and a base of the whole property 

 for a nominal consideration to Commodore Stanton for the month 

 of August has been duly executed. 



Pending these negotiations it was not advisable to issue any 

 circular or official information, but work at the Neck has pro- 

 gressed satisfactorily, in accordance with recommendations of 

 this committee in their report. 



The Association is most fortunate in obtaining this site, the 

 natural advantages of which are un=urpassed. 



Wealthy New Yorkers are beeinning to appreciate the beauty 

 and healthfulness of eastern Long Island, and splendid country 

 seats are numerous in this vicinity. Shelter Island has long bepn 

 a favorite watering place and its beautiful harbors during the 

 summer are bright with well appointed yachts. 



Jessup's Neck is just remote enough to be out of the way of this 

 fashionable civilization, but near enough to be of easy access from 

 New York, New London, Saybrook, or adjacent points. No human 

 habitation has yet marred i' s native beauty, and the distant white 

 spire at Sag Harbor and tbe occasional villas on the further shores 

 are the only hreaks in the primeval land-capo. 



Location.— It you are not familiar with this locality, turn to any 

 map showing Long Island and you will notice that the eastern end 

 of the island divides like the opening jaws of a huge saurian. 

 Between these jaws Shelter Island is grasped like a large and pal- 

 atable morsel; north and south of it are chanm Is large enough to 

 admit any vessel, but sufficiently small and crooked to break the 

 force of the tide and to shut out the storms aud swells of the 

 Atlantic; west of Shelter Island and between the jaws of L'mg 

 Island is inclosed tbe beautiful Peconic Bay, some fifteen miles 

 long, but broken by an island and peninsula. In this bay the tide 

 rises and falls from 2 to 3ft. 



Tbe desirauility of these waters for an A. C. A. meet was noted 

 by C M. Shedd, Springfield C. O., in an article in the Forest and 

 Stream, and by Poultney Bigelow in Outing. 



Jessup's Neck is a peninsula two miles long and less than a 

 quarter of a mile wide in its broadest part, pointing toward Shel- 

 ter Island ano marking the eastern end of Little Peconio Bay. It 

 is about midway Pet ween the towns of Green port and Sag Harbor 

 being about six miles distant from each by water. 



The end of the Neck is a long, curved sand bar which gradually 

 rises and widens until it presents a beautiful sloping plateau of 

 lawn, bordered by cedar and oak groves. Covered with the snowy 

 tents aud waving bauners of our Association, it will be a striking 

 picture visible for miles arouud. 



The soil is hard, being raided from the beaches by an elevation 

 of from 3 to 40ft. The character of the soil changes at this abrupt 

 elevation from hard white sand to rich grassy turf. The camp 

 will be neither damp nor sandy. The drainage is perfect. A hol- 

 low divides the camp longitudinally into two portions, which 

 will be used, the one for the main camp, the other for the ladies' 

 camp. While in close proximity to one another, there will be ab- 

 solute separation between the two camps. 



At the line of separation will be located the steamboat dock, the 

 mess tent, the store, work-shop, the offices, photographic aark 

 room, etc., etc. 



There is a small cedar grove on the point at, the end of the main 

 camp; the ladies' camp is surrounded by pleasant groves, so that 

 ladies' tents may be in the shade if desired. The elevation of the 

 camp gives an unobstructed view of all parts of the sailing and 

 paddling courses, so that one may sit under his own tent awning 

 and view all that is going on on the Bay. 



The rise and fall of the tide along the beach is almost nothing 

 for water connecting with the sea; the space on the beach beLween 

 the high water and the low water lines Deing at most some 9 n r 

 10ft. Notwithstanding this the beach is very level. It is covered 

 with the usual pebbles, shells, curious shellfish and seaweed 



common to ocean beaches, but without dirt or wreckage. The 

 water is clear as crystal. 



To those who come from a distance this year's camp offers un- 

 usual attraction; for on the same trip one may visit N"w York 

 city, enjoy the steamboat trip through the Sound, see tbe water- 

 ing place at Shelter Island, and gaze upon and bathe in the ocean 

 itself. 



The Camp Mess— The Association has been fortunate in securing 

 the services of an experienced hotel steward to manage this 

 troublesome parr of its affairs. Mr. Arthur Bave, who has been 

 the steward of the Rossmore Hotel and the Sinclair House, of 

 New York, and of Hie Prospect House at Shelter Island, and who 

 is now the steward of a successful Fifth avenue club, has be en 

 engaged to cater for the camp. He has already visited the site 

 and commenced preparations with considerable zeal. Ranges, 

 ovens, broilers, steam table, etc., will be set up and hricked in, and 

 a regular hotel outfit with hot and cold water supply, etc., pro- 

 vided by the well known hotel supply house of Duparquet, 

 Monetise & Co., two regular cooks, a pastry cook, and a butcher 

 will be taken from New York, and good meals will be served upon 

 clean linen and hot plates. 



In view of tbe magnitude of this venture it is earnestly re- 

 quested that those who may have intended bringing club stewards 

 for private camps, will not do so, tnus saying themselves a great 

 expense and helping us out on a somewhat hazardous venture. 



The rates charged will be very moderate for good service, vi*.: 

 For two weeks, $1 00 per day; for 8 to 13 days, "$1.15 per day; for 

 one week, $1.25 per day: for 3 to 6 dajs, $1.40 per day; for 1 or 2 

 days, $1.50 per day; for a single dinner, 75c; for a breakfast or 

 lunch, 50c. 



Those who desire to "camp out" and do their own cooking wil 

 be furnished with all necessities at moderate prices, at the camp 

 store, which will be under entirely different management from 

 the mess. 



Hie Laities 1 Camp.— Upon the elevation beyond the main camp 

 will be si i uated the ladies' camp. The ground here is higher than 

 that occupied by the main camp, aud a grove of. cedars separates 

 the oue frnm tbe other; both, however, overlook the bay. 



This camp will be under the guardianship of Mr and Mrs. L. W. 

 Seavey, whose experience will render their advice of great as- 

 sistance to ladies who visit a meet for the first time. Mrs. Bave 

 will assist Mrs. Seavey in seeing that all are made comfortable. 

 Those who have not been to an A. C. A. camp meet mus' not im- 

 agine thai our lady friends are subjected to the hardships of camp- 

 ing out. A good tent, with a raised board floor (covered perhaps 

 with shawls and rugs), a wide cot and improved furniture make a 

 comfortable apartment. 



Tne mess tent is but a stone's throw (a lady's throw) from the 

 ladies' camp, and on stormy days meals maybe brought to the 

 ladies in their tents. In case of a protracted storm, which is un- 

 likely to occur in August, the ladies may retreat, if they so desire, 

 to the attractive hotels at Greenport, Shelter Island or Sag 

 Harbor. 



Speaking of the weather, it is well to allude to those salt-water 

 pests, mosquitoes. We may see some of them, of course; there is 

 no place on salt water absolutely freefrom their attacks. It would 

 seem, however, from the narrowness of this neck and from the 

 fact that a good breeze always sweeps across it, that it will be 

 impossible for those insects to light upon or remain upon the. 

 camp. Their migrat ions vary in different seasous and are as un- 

 certain as the weather; but we may fairly predict freedom from 

 their annoyance. 



Tents, etc.— It is hoped that most canoeists will bring their own 

 tents. The committee will, however, engage, upon application, 

 tents for members wishing them, up to the limit of supply in Now 

 York and neighboring towns. Tent floors and "skids" or floats for 

 canoes will be built at cost; the lumber will be returned to the 

 dealer, making the cost, as small as possible to the members. 

 Prices will be published later if possible in tbe Sail and Paddle, 

 and tbe Forest and Stream, or letters of inquiry will be prompt- 

 ly answered. In either case applications should be sent in by Aug. 

 1 or before, so that floors, floats and tents may be ready when the 

 canoeist arrives in camp. 



Signal Code.— Under the direction of Mr. E. W. Brown, K. O. C, 

 a complete signal code has been arranged, and coming events will 

 be constantly made known by signal flags prominently displayed 

 at headquarters. 



For the convenience of amateur photographers a photographic 

 dark-room, with necssary accessories, will be setup, and different 

 developers, dry-plates, etc, obtained at cost. Tbe different dealers 

 in canoeing outfi ts will be allowed space and opportunity to supply 

 canoe sails, fittings, etc. 



Particular pains will be taken to have perfect sanitary arrange- 

 ments. 



Transportation.— This matter will be fully set forth in a circular 

 of the transportation commit tee accompanying this notice to each 

 member ot the adjac-nt divisions. It is sufficient here to note 

 that members of tbe Eastern Division should come via New Lon- 

 don, and those of the Atlantic, Central and Northern divisions by 

 Albany and New York. They should arrange to send their canoes, 

 etc., in time to catch the special A. C. A. steamer from New York. 



Notice of Intention to Go to the Meet— If you expect to be pres- 

 ent at all or any part of the meet, i ou will confer a favor by in- 

 forming the committee at. your earliest convenience of your 

 intention to be present, of the length of time you will probably 

 remain, whether jou will occupy a canoe tent or a shore tent, 

 whether you will board at the Association mess or camp out, and 

 whether you intend to order a tent, tent floor or "skid." Any 

 other information will be gladly given by the committee.

 patcong Canoe Club he'd a successful regatta on July 4. The lake- 

 was crowded with visitors trorn the city, and about 200 people wit- 

 nessed the races. The judges were Mr. R. Dunlap, Geo. M. Brock- 

 way, R. L. Edwards, Geo. Damerel and O. F. G Meyer. Owing to 

 the lack of time on the Fourth some of the events were postponed
