IN NEW JERSEY. 
Hudson Gon Clob. 
Jersey City, N. J., Aug. 17.— Following are the scores made at 
the last shoot of the Hud son Gun Club. The day was excessively 
hot, but some good scores were made. 
The attendance of members of the club has not been up to its 
usual standard, and in order to renew interest the club has de- 
cided to offer several prizes, which will be given to members on a 
handicap basis. 
The handicapping will be done by a committee, and instead of 
giving extra targets, will be by yards. 
The club has made arrangements to lengthen the shooting plat- 
form to 20yds., and several of the topnotchers will have to be 
moved back. Among this number will be Dudley, Schorty Duke, 
Bock, Hausnian and several others. Next shoot Aug. 25. 'Scores:

Fort Smitli Gun Club. 
Fort Smith, Ark., Aug. 16. — The paid correspondent of the 
Fort Smith Gun Club has been absent from the city for some 
time, consequently no reports have been written in regard to the 
progress of the contest for the Peters Cartridge Company's loving 
cup, which has been in competition for the present season. Tiie 
race grows in interest as time rolls on, and several of the boys have 
developed a dangerous stride, at times, that threatened the peace 
and happiness of the leaders. For instance, on Aug. 1 Webber 
broke 22 out of 25 in the most approved fashion, but after making 
tliis very excellent score fell down and could only account for 13 
out of the next 20, which spoiled his average for the day. 
On Aug. 8 Al£ Williams got a streak on, and proceeded to smash 
^1 and 22 out of two sets of 25 each, but could only account for 
rally"* °^ ^' '^^^'^^ spoiled what looked like a grand 
Kimmons is, showing none of the form which made him danger- 
ous last season, and seems for the time to have lost his stride 
, ^, mamtained for two seasons. 
Walter Mann is shooting steadilv, and is fast becoming one of 
the old reliables. 
VVilliams is bound to come to the front, as he is hard working 
and painstaking, and never throws away a shot. 
Inc club will probably continue through August and Sep- 
tember, but on the first day of October will hie themselves away to 
the green fields not of Virginia, but the Territory, in search of 
Mr. Bob White, whose plaintive call now echoes from hill and 
dale. 
The club had for its guest Mr. Jerry McKenna, of Poteau, who 
had a little score to settle with Mr. Alf Williams as to their 
respective merits, and if Alf did win out by a nose lie has little 
room to brag, as it was a hair-raising finish. Alf sayB it is all in 
the gun, and if Jerry had been shooting any gun but his (Will- 
iams') Jerry wouldn't be in his class. Come again Mr. Mc.

Ossiningf G«n Club. 
OssiNiNG, N. Y.— The scores of the Ossining Gun Club tourna- 
ment and clam bake, made Aug. 14, follow. The day was very 
successful from a financial standpoint besides the fun there was on 
tap. Altogether, thirty-six shooters participated, while about one 
hundred and ten sat down to the bake. 
George Hunt and Capt. George Washburn, superintending, 
form a combination hard to beat in the clam-bake line — it was 
unanimously conceded by those present to be the "best ever," 
and it was. 
Many out-of-town shooters favored us with their pi-esence, 
among whom were Coroner Perlcy Mason, of Peekskill; Dr. Mar- 
tin, of Brooklyn; Gus Grieff, of New York city, the only trade 
representative present", who, by the way, made some fine scores 
with his featherweight Francotte; Messrs. Lander, Creighton, 
Gilson and Potter, of South Nyack; Messrs. Sutton, Gorham, 
Bailey, Rea, Betti and Wood, of Mt. Kisco, and Mr. Quimby, of 
the Armonk Gun Club. Warden Johnson came up for a little 
while, but was on business bent, so he didn't circulate much 
among his friends. 
The star event of the day was No. 19 — four picked men of the 
Mt. Kisco clulj were matched in a 15-bird event against a pick-up 
squad composed of Gus Grieff, Dr. Martin and Bedell and Bland- 
ford, of this club. The result was a victory for the pick-ups by a 
handy margin of 7. 
The first prize event was No. 5, a can of powder — Robin Hood — 
won by R. B. Potter, with 10 straight. No. 6, a prize of a box of 
shells, donated by Barlow & Co., was won by Lander, of South 
Nyack, witli 15 straight. 
Ail the merchants donated who were asked; this in justice to 
other merchants who may be asked to ante up at some future day.

Chicago, Aug. 17. — The appended scores were made on our 
grounds to-day on the occasion of the second trophy shoot of the 
third series. Hcllman easily carried off the honors of the day by 
going straight in the main event. Delano won Class B trophy on 
the good score for a B shooter of 23. Drinkwalcr won Class C 
trophy on 17— very good work for a green shooter, he having only 
shot a few times in his life. The day was a fine one for trapshoot- 
ing, barring a stiff cross wind, which caused the targets to dip 
badly at times. 
Twenty-two shooters participated in the trophy event, and others 
came later. 
Attached find scores of a three-cornered stake shoot at 100 targets 
each between A. D. Dorman and H. N. Delano, of Garfield Gun 
Club, and J. J. Ellis, of La Grange Gun Club: Dorman 88, Delano 
81, Ellis 77. . . ■

The catalogues of dealers in sportsmen's goods to-dav are in- 
teresting reading, because of the almost infinite variety of articles 
which such dealers supply. In looking over the catalogue of 
David T. Abercrombie & Co., of 2 and 3 South street. New York 
almost every usable article is found, from a tent or a pair of shoes 
to a teaspoon and a lantern. The list of frraporated and com- 
pressed foods \s especially interesting. — Adv. 
No man can be contented himself or endurable to his fellows 
who does not sleep well at night. This is especially important in 
camp. A good bed is of prime importance, and the people who 
manufacture the Kenwood Sleeping Bag think that they have not 
only a good -bed, but the best one of all. — Adv. 
The Sylvan Cot is another form of bed, or, rather, support for a 
bed. Light, strong and comfortable, it will Just fit the needs of 
many campers. That the U. S. Governm.ent has ordered 35,000 
within the last six months is strong testimonv of its usefulness —
