Riverside Shooting Association. 
Carlstadt, N, J.— The star attraction was the match between 
Messrs. Cutwater and Smith, a 20-bird race for the price of the 
birds. This was of special interest, as there was a match on 
between Mr. S. M. Van Allen, the Jamaica crack, and Mr. Smith, 
who is recently from England, the conditions of which were 25 
or 50 birds. 2Syds. rise, Van Allen conceding his opponent one 
-extra bird to shoot at for each 25; that is to say, if the match 
was at 50 birds, Mr. Smith would have 52 to shoot at. This match 
was later declared off by Mr. Smith.

lot. 
Jackson Park Gun Club. 
Paterson, N. J., Jan. 2. — The all-day shoot of the Jackson Park 
Gun Club, on its grounds, near Little Falls, on New Year's Day, 
was witnessed by one of the largest crowds that ever came out to 
attend a shoot in this city before. Both the platform and the 
club house were filled. Those who witnessed the shoot were well 
paid for their visit, as the events were well filled, and some fine 
scores were made. A number of visiting shooters from out of 
town were on hand to take their chances, and were received with 
open hand, and were well taken care of. Koegel seemed to have 
gotten a little the best of the handicapper, as they were all 
shooting from the 2Syd. mark, and he appeared about two or three 
yards better than the rest of the boys. 
Only three events were shot, but these were well filled, and took 
up considerable time. They would hardly have been finished but 
for the work of Capt. Lenone and Mr. T. C. Wright, who kept 
the shooters on the jump from start to finish, so that very little 
time was lost. 
The first event, at 7 birds, $3, had nine entries. Christy and 
Hoifinan seemed to hold out the best. Hassinger and Koegle 
dropped their last bird. 
The second event, at 15 birds, had ten entries, and Capt. Lenone 
called for ?5 entrance. Koegle proved the best man, with Geo. 
Hopper a close second, with 14. Several were close up. Mr. 
Bruyere broke his gun the first of the week, and would not 
stay away. He brought out a pump, but could do very little with 
it. He tried several others, and then quit. Mr. Sidway was ap- 
parently enjoying himself, shooting for birds only. Friend Hoff- 
man came out with Frank Butler, and seemed to be getting some 
of the real enjoyment out of his favorite pipe and trapshooting 
combined with the ideal weather we had for our shoot. I don't 
think there ever was a finer day for shooting than we had for 
New Years. Before this event was finished every car dropped 
its load at our entrance. The passengers included a number 
of the shooters from the city and surrounding country, all eager 
to enter the next event, which was all ready scheduled as a 
10-bird, |5 affair. Our own boys decided to stay out, and let 
those who had come to visit us have a chance to get in, and the 
event started with fifteen entries. It proved very interesting for 
the visitors. Capt. Lenone gave the younger shooters an idea 
nf shooting, gun below the elbow, using his second barrel but 
twice on 25 birds, and scoring 21 on good birds. A large majority 
of the birds were of the first order; a few sitters, but good on 
the wing; a very few incomers. 
At the time for starting the 10-bird event, it was seen that 
there was ju.st about enough birds on hand to finish it with the 
fifteen entries, and I would not receive any more. The event \yas 
finished about 4 o'clock. G. A. Hopper got in for a little exercise 
after looking after the comfort of the visitors all day, and cleaned 
up 10 straight. Capt. Lenone took general charge outside, with 
the assistance of T. C. Wright, and the writer looked after the 
entries and took charge of the money, as he just came out of a sick 
bed after a week. Everything went oft" nicely. We shot off nearly 
500 birds, including practice birds before 7-bird event: 
No. 1, ?3 entrance. No. 2, $5 entrance.

Tar and Turpentine Woods of the South. 
At^D WHAT THE YANKEE IS DOING DOWN IN DIXIE. 
A GREAT many of the wide-awake New Englanders have found 
that the sandhills of North Carolina that are covered with the 
long-leafed pines from which turpentine and tar are made, is the 
finest land in the United States for the growing of early grapes, 
peaches and plums, and a variety of early vegetables, and espe- 
cially sweet potatoes, which can be grown and placed upon the 
Northern market two or three weeks earlier than those grown in 
New Jersey, and on this account, and on account of the health- 
giving qualities of the air and water of that section, several 
towns are being built up by people from the North and West, 
the larger majority being from the New England States. The 
two most prominent settlements are at Pinebluff and Southern 
Pines, Moore county, N. C. Mr. John T. Patrick, of the Sea- 
board Air Line Railway, who has induced many people to go 
South, and whose home is at Pinebluff, can give information to 
those wanting to know what has been accomplished by the 
Yankees in the South. 
The Winchester Repeating Arms Co., of New Haven, Conn, 
sends us the following: "The shooters who are ranked first under 
the respective classifications in Sporting Life's "Trap Shooting 
Review for 1902" all indorse Winchester factory loaded shells. 
This is the third consecutive year that substantially all the prin- 
cipal shooting honors have been won by shooters shooting 
Winchester factory loaded shells. This speaks a volume for the 
reliability and uniformity of this famous brand of shotgun am- 
munition." , . 
Mr E. T. McMahon, the able manager of the Lake Shore and 
Michi<^an 'Southern Railway's Advertising Department, has sent 
out to the friends of his company a Christmas greeting, felicitous 
in text and apropos in illustration. The Twentieth Century 
Limited, rushing through the night, forms a heading, while a 
spray of holly, green of leaf and red of berry, hold place in the 
foreground. The greeting is "Wishing you a New Year filled with 
much joy and gladness, peace and plenty."
