Baltimore Shooting Association. 
Baltimore, Md., Jan. 4. — A special meeting of the Baltimore Shoot- 
ing Association was held recently in the Carrolton Hotel, the meeting 
being very well attended. The president of the Association, H. A. Pen- 
rose, presided. The following is an account of the business transacted 
as reported in the Baltimore Sun: 
'■The report of the treasurer showed that the Association is not only 
self-sustaining, but that a small balance is in the treasury. The club 
had spent considerable money upon improvements in the last year, 
and it is now the desire of the members to liquidate the indebtedness 
as quickly as possible. It was decided not to wait until next year's ' 
membership dues become available— which will be several months 
hence— to accomplish this, so a subscription list was started and 
nearly $200 were quickly subscribed. The total indebtedness was but 
8800 before the subscription was started. 
"The Association determined to require the procurer of live pigeons 
to pay one cent into the club's treasury for every bird trapped. Here- 
tofore the club has received no revenue from this source. 
"Resolutions were adopted to have a meeting of the prize commit- 
tee calls d and have it submit a report . 
'•To circulate the subscription list among the members to liquidate 
the indebtedness, the president being instructed to collect the sub- 
scriptons. 
"To provide for the reimbursing of the subscribers as soon as the 
club's treasury contains sufficient surplus. 
"To give James R. Malone exclusive privilege of furnishing ' live 
birds. 
"To have the buildings and traps insured for the benefit of Messrs. 
Wilson and Harvey, the club creditors. 
"To provide for the payment of the money now in the treasury to 
Messrs. Wilson and Harvey on account. 
"The following were elected members: W. McKinney. H. W. Kings- 
bury, Charles Macalester and Thomas B. Whistler, of Baltimore; F. 
W. Sacket, Seymour Cunningham and James Green, of Washington, 
D. C." 
SCORES MADE TO-DAY. 
Bert Claridge and W. H. Kingsbury shot a 50-bird match to-day, 
Claridge winning easily, although his score was not a high one; this 
was no doubt due to the high wind and extremely cold weather. 
Kingsbury retired in the 43d round, the score standing: Claridge 33, 
Kingsbury 26. 
Kingsbury also shot a 25-bird race with Thomas Whistler and again 
met defeat, the score at the end of the 33d round, when Kingsbury 
withdrew, showing Whistler 19, Kingsbury 16. 
A couple nf sweeps at 5 birds, $3 entrance, were decided, the scores 
being as follows: 
No. 1: Claridge, 5; Macalester, Sims and Penrose, 4; Kingsbury, 
Smith, Buck and Hawkins, 3; Whistler 1. 
No. 3: Claridge, Sims and Macalester, 5; Penrose, Kingsbury and 
Hawkins, 4; Smith, 3. 
Limited Gun Club. 
Indianapolis, IncL, Jan. 1. — With a foot of snow on the ground and 
no cars running within a mile of the grounds, the New Year's pigeon 
shoot of the Limited Gun Club promised to be a failure for lack of 
entries; but the faithful would not be denied, and by 11 o'clock eigh- 
teen shooters were on hand. The out-of-town visitors were A. W. 
du Bray, of Dayton, Ky.; Ed. Voris, Crawfordsville; Hyatt L. Frost 
and J. E. Shipley, Connorsville, and G. G. Williamson, Muncie, Ind. 
The birds were a fine lot of old strong fellows that had been properly 
handled and cared for, but they proved a poor lot of flyers— probably 
because of snow blindness. Tiiat was the only real drawback to the 
day's pleasure, but everyone was cheerful and enjoyed the big log fire 
and a dinner of turkey and "fixin's." 
There was one 5-bird race, entrance $3, and two of 7 birds, entrance 
$5 each. George J. Maratt, who led with 18 out of 19, and John W, 
Cooper, who followed with 17, had never before shot a pigeon out of a 
trap. The following is a summary of the shooting:

Washington Heights Gun Club. 
New York, Jan. 1.— The Washington Heights Gun Club held a shoot 
to-day, but after disposing of two events it was decided to postpone 
the remainder of the events until Jan. 11, the weather being so 
cold and windy. In the live-bird event Organ took first money atone 
on 9; Romer won second money after shooting off the tie miss-and- 
out. Score: 
No. 1, 10 live birds: J. J. Organ 9, R. Searles, R. Romer and J. A. 
Belden 8, F. W. Sherry, Sr., and F. W. Sherry, Jr., 6.

Keystone Shooting League. 
Philadelphia, Pa., Jan. 6.— Harry Thurman and W. H. Pack picked 
teams of 10 men and shot a match to-day on the grounds of the Key- 
stone Shooting League, at Holmesburg Junction, the losinsr team to 
pay for the birds. Each man was to shoot at 10 birds— 100 birds to 
the team. The result was an easy victory for Pack's team by 6 birds, 
the scores standing 82 to 76. The only straight was made by Landis, 
who during the shoot scored all his birds, killing 33 straight; W. H. 
Pack was right after him with 32 out of 23, one dead out of bounds. 
Of the two events shot in addition to the team race, No. 1 was a miss- 
and-out, S3 entrance; No. 2 was a 5-bird sweep, $2 entrance, one 
money. Scores were: 
Pack's Team No. 1. No. 2.

West Lebanon Gun Club. 
West Lebanon, N. H, Dec. 25 —The West Lebanon Gun Club held 
its last shoot for the season of 1895 on this date; the attendance of 
members was only small. Owing to the cloudy day, the scores were 
poor. This has been our first year at trap-shooting, and as most of

Sportsmen at the Chicago Cycle Show. 
There were more than 400,000 pretty girls at the cycle 
show in Chicago each night this week, and it need not 
be added that such sporting goods representatives as G. 
Harry Marlin, Paul North, Louis Ehrhart, of Atchison; 
Fred Quimby and other well-known ones were also gath- 
ered together to see what was going on in the cycle world. 
One would never guess how many sorts of cycles there 
are in these days if he had never seen the show. All the 
Chicago and all the outside firms had exhibits, and 
among names familiar to Forest and Stream readers 
were those of Montgomery Ward & Co., A. Gr. Spalding 
& Bros, and the Hunter Arms Co. of Fulton, IS . Y. Of 
course everybody knows the names of the above firms, 
but one might wonder what the Hunter Arms Co. were 
doing at the bicycle show with L. C. Smith guns to ex- 
hibit. The fact is that they had no guns along, but had 
instead the new Hunter wheel, which is as "good as the 
L. C. Smith gun" in every way, and apt to be as popular 
in the near future. The firm had an elegant display of 
new wheels, and did a good business with them. The 
display included five different models, in weight from 18 
to 241bs. , each showing all the '96 improvements, and each 
made fine as a watch. The record of the Hunter Arms 
Co. in the workmanship of their gun will be of lasting 
benefit to them in the sale of these wheels. The latter 
are very graceful and handsome, and are finished most 
showily in a strong "Hunter green" enamel. Mr. Quimby 
was at the exhibit, and Mr, John Hunter. Jr., and Mr. 
Robert Hunter were on from the firm. It is heard with 
regret that the senior of the firm and father of the big 
family of Hunter boys is at home very ill this week, 
though his condition is now improving. Mr. McMurchy 
is at the factory at work. He will read the opening sen- 
tence above with sincere regret. E. Hough.

NEW YORK TO CALIFORNIA. 
A new line of Fullman's latest Compartment Sleeping Cars was 
inaugurated on Tuesday, Jan. 7, on the Southern Railway's Piedmont 
Air Line Limited between New York and New Orleans, connecting 
with similar cars on tne Southern Pacific "Sunset Limited. 1 ' These 
cars will leave New York on every Tuesday and Saturday at 4:30 
P. M., connecting at New Orleans with the Pacific Coast Flyer. These 
cars are most elegantly furnished and have two drawing-rooms and 
seven staterooms. These rooms can be used separate or thrown into 
a suite or private apartment. The staterooms are unsurpassable in 
completeness, private folding washstand, and all conveniences of most 
modern Drawing-room Cars. — Adv. 
Hough's "American Woods." 
Part I. of Hough's "American Woods," published by Romeyn B. 
Hough, B. A., Jjowville, N. Y., contains twenty-six sets of sections of 
various woods. These sections are extremely thin and show the grain 
from all possible points of view, tangential, radiil and transverse. 
They give a graphic representation of the beautiful veneers that may 
he cut not only from woods generally used for that purpose, such as 
the maples, but also from other woods which at present are not valu- 
able in this respect. 
In addition to these sections Mr. Hough gives much valuable in- 
formation as to the physical properties, habitat and commercial uses 
of the woods described, as well as botanical information keys for 
identification, glossary, etc. Tbe value of this work can hardly be 
overestimated.
