The Lake Side Bod and Gun Club. 
BuELiNGTON, Vt., April 9.— A six-men team race was shot to-day on 
the grounds of the Lake Sirte Rod and (Jun Club, of this city. The 
contest was for the team championship of the State and a gold t)adge 
donated by the home club. Toe weatUer was very disagreeable, as 
rain fell, with a little snow thrown ia at times. The air also was 
very cold, and chilled the shooters so thoroughly that just bs soon as 
they had shot out their strings they would make a break for the 
club house and huddle round the siove until called out to shoot 
again. Considering the weather conditions, the scores were as good 
as could be expected. 
The teams from Montpelier and Barre are as fine a lot of shooters 
and gentlemen as we ever hops to meet. They shot out their scores 
without a hitch or a kick of any kind. It is just such behavior as 
this that makes .«hoots of this sort a success, and we wish to express 
the thanks of the Lake Side Rod and Gun Club through the medium 
of your columns for the pleasant time we enjoyed with our guests. 
As you will see from the scores, Montptlier won the badge with 
446 out of 600. Barre broke 414, leading Burlington by just 6 breaks. 
The conditions of the team shoot were 75 known ana 25 unknowii 
angles. Both before and after the shoot several practice sweeps 
were shot. Owing to the weather only about 125 spectators were on 
hand. Scores were:

E. C, New York.— About twelve years ago I received a consign- 
ment of skins from Arizona, near the border of New Mexico. The 
consignor called them biickf-kins. The skins sold here at $1 25 per 
pound. Weight of the lareest skin was about 31bs Would you 
kindly let me know, under Answers to Correspondents, to what spe- 
cies of deer they belong? Ans. You do not give much information 
to go on — merely the weight of the skin and thelocaliiy. It is impossi- 
ble to say whether these were antelope skins or skins of the small 
Southern form of the Virginia deer, sometimes called C. mexicamm.

The Baxter Camping Outfit. 
The Baxter Camping Outfit has as its basis a camp cooking outfit 
and mess fit for six persons, in which two folding tripods are used In 
place of a stove for cooking over an ordinary camp-fire. 
If preferred, a portable stove with deitachable oven may be substi- 
tuted for the tripods, or all may be included in one outfit. 
The various articles are packed for transportation in whatis known 
as the convertible table kit case, which somewhat resembles in shape 
a dress suit caFC As thi.s case is only 7in. in width, it will go under a 
buggy or boat seat. Unfo'ded it makes a table 30x33in. in size. 
Full particulars are contained in a circular which will be sent upon 
request by Dr. W. E. Baxter, Frankfort, Ky.—Adv. 
Vacation Days. 
In the lake regions of Wisconsin, northern Michigan, Minnesota. 
Iowa and South Dakota, al^ng the lines of the Chicago, Milwaukee & 
St. Paul Ry , are hundreds of charming localities preerhinently fitted 
for summer homes, nearly all of which are located on or near lakes 
which have not been lisbed out. These resorts range in variety from 
the ''full dress for dinntr" to the flannel shirt costume for every 
meal, Among the list are names familiar to many of our readers as 
the perfection of Northern summer resorts. Nearly all of the Wis- 
consin poinis of interest are within a short distance of Chicago or 
Milwaukee, and none of them are so far away from the "tusy marts 
of civilization ' that they cannon be reached within a few hi.urs t.f
