Hunters* and Fishermen's Picnic at Brush Iiake. 
Woodstock, O., July 30.— The first annual Hunters', Fishermen's 
and Trap Shooters' Picnic, held yesterday under the management of 
Woodstock and Nortli Lewisburg sportsmen, was a great success. 
The scene of the pfcnic was Brush Lake, O. Everything passed off 
well, and all present voted it one of the best and most successful 
gatherings of sportsmen ever held in the country. The programme 
events for trap-shooters was a good one, and was taken part m by 57 
shooters. Bcpresentatlves were present from Columbus. Urbana, Ir- 
win, Bellefontaine, Plain City, Mechanicsburg, etc. ; in fact, several 
hundred took part in the day's proceedings: boating, bathing, fishing, 
short and long range rifle shooting, and trap-shooting. 
In the team race contests at the trap, ten men to a team, 20 targets 
per man, Urbana defeated Plain City by 154 to 136. The Mechanics- 
burg team of ten defeated Woodstock's leam by 134 to 11. In the 
Bellefontaine and Urbana team match the Urbanas won again by the 
score of 154 to 136. Thus Urbana took the honors of the day at the 
traps. Ten traps were kept going continuously from 9 A. M. until 6 
P. M., at which time a heavy storm of wind took our tents up into 
the air, and drove the shooters to more permanent shelter. The 
breaking up of the sport was compensated for by the agreeable 
change in the temperature, the extreme heat during the day having 
been very trying. Targets were all thrown at unknown angles; this, 
together with lack of practice, affected the scores, still the work was 
satisfactory on the whole. This was a strictly amateur shoot, and 
that was what the boys wanted. 
The scores made in the sweepstake events shot during the day were 
as below:

The Charlotts Tournament. 
ChAblottb, N. C, Aug. 3.— Tl^e fl fth annual tournament of the 
Charlotte Gun Club, of this city, was held here July 28-29, with added 
money of $100 per day. We cannot report our tournament a com- 
plete success, as we had a very slici attendance; but we can truth- 
fully say that a more clever set of pr ntlemen never met before traps. 
The following were among the number who favored us with their 
presence: Messrs. Hunter, Wngnrr, Mattlngly and McKelden, of 
Washington, D. C; Dean, Hewitt, and Hammond, of Richmond, Va.; 
Worthen, Petermanand Wohltn-an, of Charleston, S. C; Bridgers, of 
Tarboro, N. C; Banskeit, of Columbia, S. C, and Little, of Gaffney, 
S. C. 
Notwithstanding the fact that thT weather was awfully warm, near- 
ly every one "entered for all day," pnd shot from start to finish of the 
programme. Everything work- d rmoothly except the- traps, which 
caused considerable trouble and de'ay. Ordinarily, when traps work 
badly, shooters kick and growl, but it seemed that the entire crowd 
felt that we were suffii. iently puniFliad by an absence of shooters and 
never a word was said, all of whitih was highly appreciated. The 
weather was entirely too hot for shooters who are unfortunate enough 
to have to wear glasses, as will be r videnced by a glance at the scores 
of Messrs. Wagner an j McKeldon, of Washington, both of whom are 
excellent shots. All i -f our local phooters "stuck to the boat," al- 
though in some cases it was a l'>si:>g game.

Bi^ Shoot at Philadelphia. 
Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 1.— In connection vrtth the Caledonian 
games held at Washington Park, on the Delaware, to-dsy, a shooting 
tournament was held which proved to be one of the most exciting 
contests of the season and brought out a great many of the crack 
shots of this city and its vicinity, and as a result several very close 
and most interesting competitions were shot off. 
The shoot was held in an open space back of the groves, where an 
improvised range and the necessary trenches were thrown up. The 
ground selected was well adapted to shooting, as the contestants had 
a clear range, excepting on the right were a clump of woods which 
made a tantalizing background. But, considering all, the scores were 
in most cases very good. 
The main event of the tournament was a team race, six men to a 
team, the prize being a very handsome cup. Fourteen teams com- 
peted, the Keystone Shooting League winning the cup in an easy man- 
ner. The scores wace: 
Keystone Shooting League: W. Wolstencrof 1 24, Landis 24, 1, H. W.

gets. The shooting was not easy, the targets being thrown down hill, 
while the traps were screwed up to the highest notch. The scores

H. N. K., New York. — The best book on building log cabins is "Log 
Cabins: How to Build and Furnish Them." We publish it. Price $1,50 
R. H. B., Jamestown, N. Y. — The close season for black and gray 
squirrels, hares and rabbits in New York is Oct. 15 to Feb. 15, both 
dates inclusive. For woodcock and ruffed grouse the old law still 
holds, viz., open season Aug. 16 to Dec. 31. 
W. T. J., Boston,— 1. Do you regard the .45-82-405 solid bullet car- 
tridge as a desirable one for moose and caribou? 2. Is it as accurate 
at 200yds. as the .45-90-300 solid? 3. What is your opinion of the 
hollow point .45-85-330 cartridge for big game? Ans. 1. Yes. 2. Yes. 
3. Many expert hunters use it for large game. 
C. R. B., Mechanlcsvllle.— 1. On my Irish setter dog, about two 
years old, there are coming all over his back little sores. The hair is 
falling out in places. I think it is mange; please tell me what to do 
for him. 2. How will I break a dog of gunshyness? Ans. 1. Tre%t 
for worms. Give two compound sulphur tablets twice a day. To thie 
sores and bare places apply the following ointment twice a day: Creo- 
sote, Sdrs. ; precipitated sulphur, loz. ; lard, 4oz. 2. To give all the differ- 
ent methods would require a small volume. If you shoot light loads 
every day, your dog near by, where he cannot conceal himself, he will 
in time become habituated to the reports. Or fire a light load at feed- 
ing time, to announce that the meal is ready. He will In time learn 
to associate It with his meals, and it will then be a pleasant sound to 
him. If a rabbit can be shot ahead of him it may cure him at once. 
"Training vs. Breaking," or "Modern Training," treats this subject 
exhaustively, ^^^^^ 
PUBLISHERS' DEPARTMENT. 
Summer Reading. 
Sir Edward Arnold in one of his recent letters says: "This world 
we live in is becoming sadly monotonous, as it shrinks year by year to 
smaller and smaller apparent dimensions under the rapid movement 
provided by limited passenger trains and swift ocean steamships." 
That the New York Central has materially aided in this shrinking 
process goes without saying. In all that pertains to shortening dis- 
tances and increasing comfort in travel this great raUroad stands to- 
day unrivaled. Its trains are the fastest in the world and its service 
unsurpassed. 
Its name is synonymous with progress in th^se and other directions 
as well. Too much, for instance, cannot be said of the amount and 
character ot the literature published with reference to the beauties of 
its route from the tourist point of view. Under the title of the "Four 
Track Series" a perfect library of finely illustrated books has been 
issued, and included in the series are a number of handsome etch- 
ings. 
These have bean classified, and a copy of "The Illustrated Cata- 
logue," descriptive of the series, will be mailed to any address on 
receipt of one 2 cent stamp, by George H. Daniels, General Passenger 
Agent. New Tf ork Central & Hudson River R. R., Grand Central Sta- 
tion, New York. 
"Health and Pleasure on ('America's Greatest Railroad'" is the 
title of No. 5 of the "Four Track Series." This is a book of 532 pages, 
which gives every conceivable detail of interest to tourists and- sum- 
mer vacationists. 
Particulars are given as to routes, rates and points of interest in 
general from Maine to the Pacific coast, but especial attention naturally 
is paid to the country tributary to New York, including the historic 
Hudson and the Catskills, the lake.region of central New York, the 
Berkshires, the Thousand Islands, Adirondacks, etc. 
The book is handsomely printed on good paper, and the Illustra- 
tions, which are very numerous, are pot by any means the least in- 
teresting part.
