FOREST AND STREAM. 



[Sept. 1, 1893. 



Great Sport in North Carolina. 



Greensboho, N. C. Aug. 27.— The trap shooters of the South 

 turned out in force on Ausr. 23 and 24 to encourage the jolly mem- 

 bers of the Greensboro Gun Club, who put forth their maiden 

 effort at running an open tournament. The town of Greensboro 

 has innumerable attractions for visitors, including electric rail- 

 roads. Belgian block pavements, a steel plant costing $110,000, 

 splendid waterworks, magnificent drives, two first-class hotels, 

 the Greensboro Female College, with 250 handsome riupils. the 

 State Normal Industrial School for white girls, the State Colored 

 Normal School, large tobacco- interests, and last btit by no means 

 least, a large number of pretty girls. J. F. Jordon & Co. are the 

 leading tobacco men of the town, their business representing the 

 handling of over 3,000,0001b8. of flue leaf tobacco annually. They 

 occupy a five-story warehouse. 



The shooters put up at the McAdoo House, where they were 

 handsomely entertained. Among the visitors were William Tell 

 Mitchell, of Lvnch Station, Va.; Sommer Van Gilder, of Knox- 

 ville, Tenn.; Messis. Anthony, Todd, Howell, Justice and Stokes, 

 of Charlotte, S. C: Nflson, Darwin, Durphy. Moorman and Cle- 

 land, of Lynchburg, Va. 



The laanagemen't of the tournament was in the able hands of 

 E. L. Gilmer and .T. Fonda, who did some tall hustling during the 

 two days. On the first day Sommer Van Gilder, tbe hustling 

 Knoxville expert, went into the box and psrformed the duty of 

 secretary and cashier until be had broken two men, Messrs. 

 Winslow and Porter, into the business. His work was highly 

 appreciated l)y the Greensboro boys. Once they caught the run of 

 the work Winslow and Porter pleased everybody. The town of 

 Greensboro has a population of about 10,000, and nearly tbe entire 

 population were interested in the shoot. The shoot was a Tiig 

 success from start to finish, 8.nd the club members are to be con- 

 gratulated upon tbe good showing on their first attempt. On the 

 opening day the entries reached 39, and on the second day ran up 

 to 33.

GREENSBORO AFTERMATH. 



Sommer Van Gilder with his Smith ejector and V. L. & D. 

 shells formed a combination hard to beat. 



W. T. Mitchell: ''IE every man could shoot as well with his gun 

 as he can with his mouth, what shooters we would bel" 



After tho shoot the boys packed up their traps and tagged them 

 '■Knoxville, Tenn., May 33-2.5, 1893." 



Fonda, of the local club, says he has borrowed some of Mitch- 

 ell's nerve. 



Auburn-haired Gilmer said nothing but shot "away up in G." 

 Winslow and Porter formed a good combination in the office. 

 Gilmer and Fonda are great on the hustle. 



Jordon can outshoot any man in the South with coat, collar and 

 cuffs on. 



For a first attempt this was a great shoot. 



All Greensboro will go to Knoxville next May. 



Wolcott, of the Charlotte team, skipped from town without 

 claiming his sixth average prize— a coffin. The boys put his name 

 and address on it, prepaid the charges, and sent it by express. 

 While this cost the boys $3 the joke will cost Wolcott many times 

 that Amount before the season comes to a close. 



Joyce, of the Greensboros, made several straights bv shooting 

 his celebrated "Cabinet Beer" under the belts of the boys. 



Tell the boys you received these tips from U. No.

t^S~ Mo Motioe Taken of Anonymoaa Oorreapondenta. 



W. F. R., Hackensaek.— A nesting quail, because lying close, 

 and also not moving about, naturally gives off less scent than In 

 other seasons, and for this reason is more difficult for a dog to 

 discover. 



J. H., Jr.— When you order your gun explain fully what It is to 

 be used for, and state your own weight and build , and then leave it 

 to the makers to give you the best gun for the purp,ise and best 

 adapted to you. Have the left barrel modified choke and the 

 right cylinder. 



E. K. D., Block Island.- Kindly tell me of some Kood place 

 where I can go next month for a couple of weeks' fine fiRhing for 

 big weakflsh and striped bass. Anywhere within 300 or 400 miles 

 of New York?- Ans, We cannot advise you with certainty for 

 most fishing is variable, but some excellent fishing has been had 

 on the Jersey coast, at Belmar, and elsewhere, 



C. W. McC, Cascadeville, N. Y.— There is a difference of opin- 

 ion among guests here as to a question of some interest to several, 

 some asserting that the game laws have been amended so that 

 trout cannot be taken even in the Forest Preserve after the first 

 day of September, others maintaining that within the preserve 

 fishing may continue up to the loth. We appeal to you to decide 

 this question. Ans. The Adirondack trout law is uniform with 

 that of the rest of the Stale. The last day of the open season was 

 yesterday, Aug. 31. 



J. W. G. D., Blooming Grove Park.— 1, Please give the game 

 laws for Pike county. Pa. Why are they not in the Book of the- 

 OameLawSi 3. Do you know of any good map or maps of Pike 

 and Monroe counties. Pa., and where they can be obtained and at 

 what price? The maps on large enough scale to show roads and 

 water courses. 3. Do you know of any way to catch small eels 

 f5 and 6in. long) for bass bait out of a large-sized lake? Anp. 1. 

 Open season for deer between Oct. 1 and Dec. 1: squirrels, Sept. 1 

 and Dec. 15: gray rabbit, Oct. 15 and Dec. 15; wood or summer 

 duck. Oi'-t. 1 and .Ian. 1; woodcock, July 4and Dec, 15: quail, Oct. 15 

 and Dec. 1; ruffed grouse, Sept. 15 and Dec. 15. The law is given 

 on page llOb of the Booh of the Game Lcmm. 3. We can supnly ii, 

 price $4. 3. We cannot tell you, but perhaps some reader inay. 



J. B., West Park, N. Y.— 1. Is it illegal to put racks in a black 

 bass stream? Several are put in every fall in a fine black bass 

 stream near here. Can they be stopped and how? Large numbers 

 of fine bass are caught in this imsportsmanlike way. 3. When is 

 the law off on squirrels and partridges?. 3. What number shot Is 

 the best for all-round squirrel shooting? 4, Do you think there is 

 any advantage in having a trained squirrel dog? If so. what breed 

 is the best, oris any cur equally good? Ans. 1. Tlie law forbids 

 catching black bass save by angling. Apply to your district game 

 protector. James McMillan, Broadhead Bridge. 2. Law is now 

 off on squirrels and partridges, and last day of open season will 

 be Dec. 31. 3. For squirrels use No. 6 shot. 4. l^e a cocker or a 

 fox-terrier or a dachshund: arcur will do practically, and a squir- 

 rel dog, like a poet, may be of humble origin and born, not made^ 

 but you will find more satisfaction in having the company of g, 

 do^ of some breed.
