Col. Courtney Wins Again. 
Syracuse, July 20— The regular 50-target shoot by the members of 
the .Onondaga County Sportsmen's Club took place yesterdny. this 
being the contest for the three class medals. The shooting was from 
known traps at unknown angles. The portly Colonel A. G. Courtney 
again proved himself to be possessed of the stuff of which champions 
are made by defeating the field and scoring another win of the mag- 
nificent A class diamond meclal. The Colonel did not have a walk- 
over, however, as Charles Arno tied him on the fine score of 46 
breaks,. Col. Courtney winning the 10 target shoot off by 9 breaks to 
Arno's 8. One more victory for "Court" will make him the owner of 
the above medal, which has been won as follows: A. G. Courtney, 
four times; Charles Arno and Charles Wagner, three times each; C. 
H. Mowry, Harvey McMurchy and Geo. H. Mannn, twice each: W. E. 
Hookway, A. C. O in ty, D. M- Lefever and Charles Dugar once each. 
Although genial George Mosher has parted company with his long- 
flowing, blonde moustache, and is frequently taken for a schoolboy 
he is still able to smash targets, and yesterday he gav'ean exhibition 
or his ability by winning B class medal on 413 breaks. Below are the

It will give us great pleasure to forward a copy of our catalogue to any 
one who "goes a- fishing." Some people charge for their catalogues, some 
charge for the postage, some charge for both. We are more than willing to 
give away our catalogues and prepay postage on them. No angler, after 
looking at the catalogue, can resist buying from us or from our trade- 
customers all the fishing-tackle he can afford to pay for. That is where we 
get back a good deal more than cost of catalogue and postage.
