^ IN IMEW JERSEY. 
Trap at East Rutherfofd. 
East Rutherford, N. J., Dec. 15.— On Heflich's grounds there 
was a hve-bird shoot to-day which was pleasant and good in every 
particular. The birds were excellent, but were blinded by the 
snow, and for that reason were not so prompt in flight. Mr. 
Hefljch exercised his best endeavor to make the event agreeable, 
and succeeded admirably.

Poughkeepsie Gun Club. 
PouGHKEEPSiE, N. Y., Dec. 20.— That the Inter-county shoot 
and tournament of the Poughkeepsie Gun Club, to be held on 
JNew Vears Day, will be well attended and consequently a suc- 
cess, there seems to be no doubt, Capt. Condit having heard 
from the several clubs along the river, each assuring him of their 
support. The trade, too, is rapidly falling in line, and will favor 
us by sending their representatives here, several having already 
as.sured us of their support, and we have good cause for believing 
that other r)rominent manufacturers will send their representatives 
to this shoot. 
Owing to the unfavorable weather conditions for several weeks 
past, not much has been done toward getting our men in shape 
for the team shoot in defense of the cup that v/e were so fortunate 
m winning at Ossining on Thanksgiving Day. To-day, however, 
eight men faced the traps, and a strong north wind, which seemed 
to delight in raising the birds to a lofty height, in six events, 
with the following results:

Briggs dropped out of event No. 2 after shooting five rounds. 
Poughkeepsie, N. Y., Dec. 27.— Christmas Day was not such 
a day as shooters like, the weather being decided unfavorable 
for good scores. Notwithstanding that there was a snowstorm in 
progress, and that no regular shoot had been scheduled, live 
men could not resist the temptation to face the traps. They shot 
100 rounds each, in four 25-bird events as follows: 
Buckley 17 19 22 19—77 Winans 15 18 16 16—65 
Perkins ......... 12 15 13 14—54 Du Bois 15 18 21 20—74 
Condit .......... 21 20 16 21—78 
To-day (Saturdjvy), at the regular weekly practice shoot of this 
club, fine weather and a close proximinity to the inter-county 
shoot and tournament to be held by this club on New Year's 
Day, had the effect of bringing out eleven men. Six events 
were shot off, with results as shown by following scores:

Schenectady Gun Club, 
Schenectady, N. Y., Dec. 20. — Twelve contestants participated

of team shoots was the competition of main interest. 
First race, 15 targets per man, resulted as follows: 
AVarnick 14. H. E. Greene 14, Adams 12, M. P. Rice 7, A. A. 
Green 10, Wallburg, 14; total 71.

M. P. Rice 10; total 73. 
Valentine 13, Warnick 14, Levengston 14, A. A. Green 13, Arnold 
11, E. W. Rice 8; total 73. 
Shoot-oft': This race being a tie, the match was decided by a 
10-bird race, as the approaching darkness would not allow a 
longer race: 
Valentine 7, Warnick 10, Levengston 8, A. A. Green 9, Arnold 
5, E. W. Rice 8; total 47. 
Wallburg 6, H. E. Greene 10, Hull 6, Adams 8, Lovejoy 4, M. 
P. Rice 7; total 41. 
Mr. Levengston was obliged to leave before the tie was shot 
off. Mr. Warnick was allowed to shoot for both himself and 
Mr. Levengston. 
During the afternoon Mr. M. P. Rice and Mr. Lovejoy shot a 
challenge match for position on the second team of the club. Mr. 
Rice was defeated by a score of 25 to 31 in a 50-target match. 
There will be no shooting on Christmas Day, but the last shoot 
of 1902 will take -place on .Saturday afternoon, Dec. 27. Members 
are earnestly requested to come in the early afternoon, as dark- 
ness prevents shooting after 4:20. 
There will be shooting on New Year's Day from 9:30 A. M. 
until 3 P. M., on the grounds, and it is expected there will be a 
large turnout. 
The total scores made during the afternoon are as follows:

Haverhill Gun Club. 
PTaverhill, Mass., Dec. 27. — We have not been dead, only 
sleeping; woke up and had a very nice little shoot Christmas Day. 
The weather was anything but fine, but cold and snow could not 
dampen the ardor of a few of the faithful, and some very fine 
scores were made. Our general utility man, Will Kirkwood, 
who cannot go to a shoot and enjoy himself unless he does all the 
work, and Sliss Jennie Kirkwood, of Boston, braved the cold 
and snow, and said they had a good time, and all hope they did. 
Messrs. Spofford, FoUansbee, Lockwood and Hatch were over 
from Amesbury. and Messrs. Brown and Bateman made their 
first visit, and we hope to see more of them. The number of 
shooters who participated was not large, but what may have been 
lacking in numbers was fully made up in enthusiasm and good 
fellowship. We have probably laid away our plaything until about 
April 19 (Patriot's Day), when we hope to start out for an un- 
usually successful season at the traps. The summary follows:

Reading, Pa.^ Dec. 26.— Owing to the cold and snow, only a few 
shooters participated in the target events of the South End Gun

Special match between Heber Brown, of Gibraltar, and W. K. 
Lutz, of Lorane, 25 targets, $5 a side, resulted in a victory for 
Lutz, who scored 19 to his opponent's 4. Brown was shooting a 
strange gun, as he broke his gun in practice on Dec. 24, and was 
compelled to use a borrowed gun, which he blames for his defeat.

A New England Lady down South Discovers a Practical 
Use for the Passion Flower, 
The Passion Flower that is prized so highly in the North as an 
ornamental flower, is a common field vine down South that over- 
runs the farmers' corn patches and gives him trouble to keep it 
weeded out. In the South it comes to full maturity and has on it 
a fruit the size and shape of a hen's egg. The skin is rather 
tough. The inside of skin or rind is covered with a jelly-like sub- 
stance somewhat similar to the pomegranate, but is a creamy 
whiteness, and has a very peculiarly fragrant perfume, unlike any 
other fruit or flower. 
Mrs. Geo. R. Morgan, a very thrifty New England woman, who 
went South with her husband to Pinebluft', N. C, the winter health 
resort located on the Seaboard Air Line Railway, last winter to 
build up a home in the South, has discovered that the fruit of 
this peculiar flower (the Southerners call it Maypop) makes the 
finest kind of jelly, possessing a flavor not equaled by jelly made 
from other fruit. Mrs. Morgan has put up several hundred pack- 
ages of this jelly, and the demand for it is so great that she is sell- 
ing it for twenty-five cents a tumbler. 
There are many things down South that the enterprising North- 
erners, who are settling there find they can put into practical use. 
This is the season when salmon anglers must make their prepar- 
ations for the fishing, which will begin next June, and it is now 
that the Labrador Company, of Montreal, advertise their rivers 
on the north shore of the St. Lawrence River, a list of which is 
found elsewhere. Some of these rivers are short, and others long, 
and they are variously expected to yield from 300 down to 25 
salmon. After the salmon season is over, grilse and sea trout are 
abundant in these streams, and furnish good sport. 
Every angler needs a minnow bucket for carrying live bait. The 
Hall's telescopic buckets have three compartments, for minnows, 
frogs and for ice, which keeps the living bait fresh and in good 
condition. The Plall Manufacturing Company, of Cleveland, O., 
tells tis that these buckets may be seen at all tackle dealers, but if 
by chance a dealer does not have them, one may write to the 
manufacturers for a description. 
"Miss Simplicity" is the attractive name of the motor manu- 
factured by the St. Joseph Motor Co., of St. Joseph, Mich. Cer- 
tainly there can be no more desirable quality in an efficient piece 
of machinery than simplicity; and this motor is sold under a 
guarantee that there is nothing of higher grade on the market, 
either for material, workmanship or equipment. 
Mr. H. M. Brigham, a scratch contestant of the Crescent 
Athletic Club won the club's December cup with three best

Ridge, L. I. Another member, ^Ir. F. B. Stephenson, on Dec. 27 
broke 95 out of 100. Each used Peters High Gun shells and 
Infallible powder. 
In the match at 25 live birds per man, for a $50 purse, between 
Messrs. Reed and Munson, at Lake Denmark, N. J., Dec. 23, 
Mr. Munson won. -Score 23 to 22. Munson used U. M. C. Arrow; 
Reed used U. M. C. Trap shells. 
Mr. W. Fred Quimby arrived in New York last week in . time
