CLraAS GUN CLUB, OF PLAINFIBLD. 
Sept. 10.— The Climax Gun Club, of Plainfleld, held Its regular 
monthly priae shoot this afternoon. The weather was all that could 
he desired for trap-shooting, bUt the members failed to turn out in 
anything like the old numbers. Tom Keller, LoUis Schortemeier and 
J. Goodman were the onljr ones on deck when the club efent was shot. 
Keller, who says that his old enemy, rheumatism, has no* no terrors 
for him, showed that he could at any rate swing tiis gun correctly, as 
he Smashed 24 out of his S5 targets In the club race. Schorty only 
dropped his 2d and lath targets, finishing with 23 out of 25. Good- 
man, who was allowed 7 extra targets as a handicap, broke 24 out of 
the 33 he shot at. The scores were:

Sept. J7.— At the grounds of the Endeavor Gun Club, Marion, N. J., 
to-day a team race between the East Side Gun Club and the Endeavor 
Gun Club took place, this being the first of a series of three matches. 
The conditions were 6 men to a team, each man shooting at 25 blue- 
rocks. As will be seen by the score, the Endeavor Gun Club won by 27 
birds, but the East Side men are good sportsmen, and only said "bet- 
ter luck next time."

OPENING SHOOT AT NATE ASTPALK'S. 
Sept. 17.^N. H. Astfalk, who has always been one of the moving 
spirits In the Elizabeth (N. J.) Gun Club, has opened grounds for tar- 
get and live-bird shooting within a short distance of the city of Eliza- 
beth. The grounds have been known to New Jersey shooters in the 
past as Eddie Earle's grounds, many live-bird matches having been 
shot there during the past few years. Since Mr. Astfalk took the 
place he has made many improvements and promises to make many 
more that wUl put his grounds on an equality with any in the State. 
To celebrate the opening of the grounds the proprietor announced 
that he would provide a clambake dinner for shooters, those who were 
present to choose sides, the losers to pay a modest sum for the enter- 
tainment of the winners. 
The date set was to-day, Sept. 17, and as luck would have it the 
morning opened wet and stormy, the rain not clearing away until after 
10 A. M,, too late to make the shoot a success. The result was a small 
attendance, Captains Woodruff and Folsom having only ten shooters 
to choose from. The light was very bad, and the targets hard to 
locate, scores ruling low. After the shoot was over the scorer an- 
nounced that Woodruff's side had won by 3 targets, having broken 96 
to 93. The score furnished us shows that Joe's score was wrongly 
footed up, he being credited with 16 breaks whereas the score shows 
that he broke but 11, a change which gave a different complexion to 
the totals as announced. Anyhow, Folsom's team paid for the clam- 
bake, and Woodruff's team enjoyed a good meal as the guests of their 
opponents. The scores were: 
Woodruff's Team.

THE BOILING SPRINGS HANDICAP. 
Sept. J9.— The Boiling Springs Fishing and Gun Club, of Rutherford, 
N. J., announced a few weeks ago that it would hold a 100-target 
handicap race. $5 entrance, on this date There is always a good deal 
of trouble connected with the getting up and running of such events, 
and there is always a little difficulty in awarding the allowances. It is 
probable, therefore, that It is on account of the above reasons that 
such races are comparatively rare In this vicinity, for the entry list of 
21 obtained in to-day's race shows that it is a popular affair with 
shooters. 
Although the hour set for commencing the race (1 P. M.) was a 
late one for the time of year, there would have been plenty of time 
to finish it had not the traps and battery taken it into their' heads to 
work so badly at the start that it was about two hours later when 
squad No. 1 was called. Once started, the equads shot I heir strings 
of 25 so quickly that, had the elements not taten a hand to defeat the 
efforts of the management, all might yet have been well. While the 
second strings were being shot growls of thunder were heard away to 
the south and west, mighiy thunderheads appearing in every part of 
the sky ; but the third string of 25 had been shot by squads 1 and 8 
before any real trouble in the storm line commenced. The atmos- 
phere during the whole afternoon had been stifling, the humidity in 
the air making every one who had to move about decidedly moist and 
uncomfortable. The change came while squad 3 was shooting its 
third string. 
The squad was made up as follows: Lanoom, Hexamer, N. E. 
Money, Henry, Hegeman and Van Brunt. About halt of its third 
string had been shot at whan the wind swept down from the west and 
played tag most successfully with the targets. Dark clouds quickly 
massed themselves overhead, the various currents of air beiug ren- 
dered very apparent as clouds moving in opposite directions crossed 
each other's paths Squad No. 3 had none the best of it, haviog to 
finish its third string in such weather. Squad No. 4— Frank, Da Wolf 
and Huck— went oui and shot its score in strong gusts of wind and a 
fast-deepening gloom. 
Squad No. 1— Edwards, Apgar, Captain Money, Harrington, Piatt 
Adams and 147— commenced its last string in such weather as none of 
the six had ever shot at a target before. Tne gale seemed to increase 
in force, while what light there had been disappeared almost entirely. 
How Apgar managed to score 23 tireaks ia a mystery to him and 
everybody else. Piatt Adams never saw several of hia targets leave 
the traps, and it was purely a matter of luck when a shooter got a 
target that he could see; low-flying targets were almost sure losses. 
So abiurd was it to try £vnd shoot in such weather (while it was ap- 
parent that the event could never be finished) that Paul Jeanneret 
urged that the event be closed and the scores called back at the end 
of the first 75. "Shoot it out," was the cry that greeted him, so Squad 
No. 1 went on trying to catch a glimpse of the targets that left the 
traps when the word "Pull" had been said, and finished Its 100. 
Squad No. 3— Piercy (captain of the Endeavor Gun Olub, who had 
been shooting very well),Welles, Lenone, Baron, Remsen and Collins- 
commenced its last string, but the 6th round of the 25 was not com- 
pleted. It was simply impossible to see a target. The club asked the 
advice of the shooters as to what should be done with the purse, and 
it was decided to refund every one his 86 minus the price of the tar- 
gets he had shot at. The scores made In this memorable event were 
as given below, the handicaps awarded to the shooters being as fol- 
lows: Apgar scratch, Edwards 2, "147" 3, Remsen .3, Collins 4, Henry 
5, Adams 6, Piercy and Capt. Money 7, Welles, N. E. Money, Huck and 
Frank 8, Herrington. Lancom and Baron 10, Lenone and Hexamer 12, 
Hegeman 14, Van Brunt 15, De Wolf 18. Scores in detail:

RECEPTION AND BANQUET TO PRESIDENT JEANNERET. 
Eighteen years ago, in 1878, the Boiling Springs Fishing and Gun 
Club was organized, and its first and last president, in fact its only 
one, is Edward A. Jeanneret, one of the most popular and most prom' 
inent residents in East Rutherford. This summer Mr. Jeanneret made 
a trip to Europe, returning on a very recent date. In honor of Mr. 
Jeanneret's return to Rutherford, and to congratulate themselves fit- 
tingly on their president's return, the members of the Boiling Springs 
Fishing and Gun Club tendered Mr. Jeanneret a reception and banquet 
at Just's Erie Hotel on the night of Sept. 19. The wretched condition 
of the weather, rain falling in torrents and the wind blowing almost a 
gale, kept many away who would otherwise have been on hand, and 
drove many of the shooters home who had previously signified their 
intention of being present. The banqueting hall of the Erie Hotel 
was nevertheless well filled as soon as landlord Just announced that 
everything was ready, and that the tables awaited the guests. Among 
those present were: 
Edward A. Jeanneret, president of the Boiling Springs Fishing and 
Gun Club, the guest of honor; William McKenzie, mayor of East 
Rutherford; ex-Mayor Luther Shaffer, counsel for the gun club; C. 
H. Coe, vice-president of the gun club; WiUiam Gramlich, of the N. 
J. & N. Y. R. R., and president of the council of East Rutherford; 
Councilmen J. N. Mileham, James P. Edwards and Arthur Van 
Winkle; W. H. Taylor, clerk of the borough of East Rutherford; 
John E. Tyler, editor of the Rutherford American; Thomas Hoerner, 
editor of the Rutherford Neios: William Kehoe, O. L. Marvin, George 
Lancom (the father of one of feutherford's coming shots), C. Collins, 
Louis Laue. F. Brockhart, of the Pullman Car Co. ; Paul Jeanneret, 
W. H. Huck, secretary of the gun club; Frank Krebs, Theodore 
Baron, of Von Lengerke & Detmold's; H. S. Welles, of Spalding's; 
John L. Winston, of the Austin Powder. Co ; Jacob Pentz, of Shooting 
and Fishing; the trap editor of Forest and Stream, etc. 
By unanimous choice Paul Jeanneret was chosen as toastmaster, 
and his efforts showed that the choice was not made unadvisedly. 
He spared nobody and played no favorites, the result being that the 
fiow of oratory and story was unbroken. Editors Hoerner and Tyler, 
both of them pianists and vocalists of no small ability, assisted very 
materially in the enjoyment of the evening; while Mr. Collins, who 
gave a graphic account of ruffed grouse shooting in Pike county, Pa. ; 
Mr. Luther Shaffer and Messrs. Huck and Krebs, who spoke respec- 
tively as to grouse shootiner at Sparta' and a day's sport in SuiUvan 
county, N. Y., all proved that the love of sport was well preserved in 
the hearts of the citizens of East Rutherford. The evening's pro- 
gramme was carefully thought out and carried to a most thoroughly 
satisfactory end, and President Jeanneret cannot have failed to realize 
that his efforts in behalf of the welfare of East Rutherford as its col- 
lector, and his work in behalf of the Boiling Springs Fishing and Gun 
Club as its president for eighteen years, are fully appreciated by his 
fellow citizens and clubmates. Edward Banks. 
On Long: Island. 
OAK ISLAND GUN CLUB, OF BABYLON, 
Sept. Jg.— President Magoun, of the Oak Island Clay Pigeon Club, of 
Babylon, L. I , presented a gold badge to be shot for by members of 
the club, the shoot to be at 25 targets, the winner to hold the badge 
until next season. The badge contest took place to-day, and Floyd 
Tooker was the winner with 17 breaks. George 8. Mott was second with 
16. S. Van Nostrand 15, G- B. Magoun 13, J. B. Lowerre 8, and J. M. 
Jordan, Jr., 7, were the other contestants 
The final contest for what is known in Babylon as "the champion- 
ship of Long Island" also took place to-day. This contest is at 50 tar- 
gets, and George Mott was the winner with 35 breaks; Tooker broke 30 
and Magoun 25 Mott having won two previous shoots was accorded 
the championship title. 
NEW UTBEOHT gun CLUB. 
Sept. JS— Owing to the absence of the energetic secretary of the 
New Utrecht Gun Club, Dr. George B. Pool, wuo nas been away from 
the city for a few weeks, the recent scores made by members of the 
New Utrecht Gun Club at the club's grounds, Dyker Meadow, did not 
reach this ofiice until a late date. Below are the scores made in the 
three last club shoots, together with the results in the club events and 
the Hegeman prize shoot: 
Aug —D. C. Bennett was in great form this afternoon, winning 
the double event of the club shoot and the Hegeman medal, scoring 25 
straight in the first event and 13 out of 15 in the other:

Sept. 5.— The attendance of members at the Dyker Meadow grounds 
this afternoon was not large. Those that did attend found a strong 
wind blowing that made the targets fly very erratically. Piatt Adams 
carried off the double event this afternoon, scoring 23 in the club 
shoot and 15 straight in the Hegeman prize contest; D C. Bennett, the 
double winner two .weeks ago, was second to Mr Adams in both 
events. Scores:

Sept. 12.— The attractions to-day at the Dyker Meadow grounds 
were the club shoot, the Hegeman badge contest and a shoot for the 
challenge plate, A. A. Hegeman having challenged Capt. Money, the 
holder. The shoot for the plate is at 30 singles, known angles, and 10 
pairs. In order to facilitate matters, and to keep everybody shooting, 
the shoot for the plate was run in in the club event, the 25 targets 
fired at in that event counting for the first 25 in the plate contest; of 
that number Capt. Money broke 24 to Hegeman's 16, the latter being 
away off in his shooting. Each man then shot at 5 more targets to 
make up the total of 30, and both lost 2 out of the 5. This gave Capt. 
Money a lead of 8 targets, and as both broke 13 out of the pairs, the 
result was unchanged. 
The club shoot was, of course, won by Capt. Money with his score of 
24 out of 25 mentioned above. The Hegeman badge also went to Capt. 
Money after the shoot-off of a tie with Piatt Adams. Among tho?e 
present were four guests of the club: A. W. Adams, of Chicago; Dr 
J. Adams, of New York; Harold B. Money and F. S. Edwards. The 
club was represented by Donley Deacon, Dr. G. E, Pool, Capt. Money, 
Piatt Adams, J. E. Jones, A. A. Hegeman and Dr. O'Brien. To-day's 
scores were: „ _ ,
