Capt. 
North Branch Gun Clab. 
North Branch, N. J., Aug. 20.— The North Branch Gtin Club 
prepared for a shoot of unusual size to-day, on the assurance from 
a number of shooters that they would attend. A small percentage 
only made their pledge good. The club expended some $50 or 
$60 for the entertainment of the visitors, much of which, in view 
of the light attendance, was unnecessary, and could have been 
avoided if no promises had been made. On the first day five extra 
events were shot. 
A-U£: 20, J^irst Day. 
The programme events had a total of 190 targets. No. 4 was at

Waterloo JOO-Bird Shoot. 
Chicago, 111., Aug. 22.— There was a gala target event on the 
grounds of Waterloo Gun Club, Aug. 15. at which time a much 
mooted 100-target event was shot to a finish. There were sixteen 
entries, and the competition was spirited. Following this event 
quite a number of sweeps were shot, and over 3,000 targets were 
broken during the day. Farmer, of Waterloo, sends the following 
report of the event: 
"Out of town shooters were C. H. Wise, of Cedar Falls; Gillin, 
of Oelwein; S. E. Cain and Al. Joder, of Hudson, and Burkhart 
and Fries, of Boies. City shooters who participated were E. M. 
Storm, .T. C. Hartman, E. E. Hageman. E. W. Jones, L. Van 
VIeck, Will White, Carl White, Ralph Storm, Rob Jackson and 
Henry Stecge. The targets were thrown from three expert traps, 
unknown angles. The traps were in first-class order, and the 
targets were thrown low and swift. The left angle was especially 
hard on account of the day being dark and a clump of trees in the 
background. The men shot in squads, retiring after every round 
of 20 targets. The entrance fee was $5, divided into four moneys 
ol 40. 30. 20 and 10 per cent. First money, $22.40, was divided be- 
tween C. H. Wise and Ralph Storm, who each broke 84. Second 
money, $16.80, was won by J. C. Hartman with a score of 82. 
Third money, $11,20, was won by Henry Steege, on a score of 79. 
ourtli money, $5.60, went to Jackson, who broke 76. The scores:

Aug. 21, Second Day. 
Only a few spectators were isresent to-day. A large field of 
shooters participated in the various events. Harvey Sconce, of 
Sidell, 111., and Mr. Phellis, of Cincinnati, each made the re- 
markable record of 99 out of a possible 100 in the live sparrow 
events. They shot with great accuracy, and were applauded by 
the other crack shooters present. Mr. Sconce failed to kill one 
bird -in the second event of 15, and Mr. Phellis missed one bird in 
the fourth event at 20 targets. In the other events they killed 
straight. 
Sconce. Phellis, Clark, Tripp and Snyder formed a squad of 
five that killed straight in the sixth and seventh events. They 
made a record of 150 straight, which was one of the best ever 
made on the Limited Gun Club grounds or any place in the coun- 
try at live sparrows. 
The match at 50 targets for the Grand Hotel cup was won by 
H. M. Clark, of Wabash, Ind,, one of the best amateur shooters 
of Indiana. He defeated H. J. Sconce, of Sidell, who was the 
holder of the cup. Mr. Clark scored 49 and Mr. Sconce 47. Mr. 
Clark made the best record ever recorded in the shoot for the 
Grand Hotel cup. He missed one in the first 25 and Mr. Sconce 
missed three. In the second round of 25 both men killed straight. 
Ernest Tripp was the high gun in the target events during the 
tournament, scoring 181 out of a possible 200. The scores in the 
sparrow events follow: i

It Sells Boats Everywhere. 
Salem, O., Aug. 15.— Forest and Stream Pub. Co.: The demand 
for our boats has been so very great within the last few months 
that we are compelled to run overtime in order to keep a supply 
on hand. So far this year we have sold twice as many of these 
boats as we did during the entire year of 1901, and we feel that 
the ad. which we have in your excellent paper has been to a 
great extent instrumental in bringing us many orders, and we 
would not hesitate to recommend it to the use of any one who 
wishes to place this class of goods before the sportsmen of the 
country. The demand for them does not seem' to be confined to 
any particular part of the country, but seems to be from all parts 
of this country and Europe. We recently shipped a large order 
to Germany, and last week forwarded a carload of these boats to 
the Simmons Hardware Company, of St. Louis, Mo., and one to 
the Marshall- Wells Hardware Company, of Duluth, Minn.

Good Keeping Qualities. 
Alden Bridge, La., Aug. 11, 1902..— A. L. Burns: Sir — You 
may send tne by express C. O. D., with privilege of examination 
the Wilkes Barre $125 for $30 gun. J. H. Simmons. 
Aug. 14, 1902.— Forest and Stream Pub. Co.: The above was 
received to-day in reply to an advertisement in Forest and Stream, 
March, 1900. Forest and Stream evidently has good keeping 
qualities, or this man just woke up. I am sending this to you 
as a curiosity. A. L. Burns. 
A few weeks ago Mr. Thomas, of the U. M. C. Co. visited Sea 
Girt with an improved bullet, which was made • without the three 
rings of the Government model, and had certain other technical 
changes. With this bullet. Lieut. Leizear, of the Eighth Penn- 
sylvania, made 72 out of 75 at 1,000 yards, which is the best score 
made up to that tim.e with the service Krag. — Adv. 
At Auburn, Me,, Aug. 11 and 12, and Brunswick, Me., Peters 
factory-loaded ammunition forged its way to the front. Mr. Neaf 
Apgar made the remarkable run of 106 straight. He won first 
average, while H. G, Wheeler was second. At the Greenville. Pa., 
shoot James Atkinson, of New Castle, Pa., won high average, 
shooting a 95 per cent gait. He used Peters Ideal factory lo^d.-^
