fragments of New York. Mr. Remsen is president of the Florida 
Gun Club, the Brooklyn Gun Club, and a member of the Carteret

Poaghfceepsie Gisa Clvb, 
PoTTGHKEEPSiE, N. Y., March 3.— There were two cups to 
shoot for to-day, this being the regular monthly shoot of the 
club, and notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather, eight 
men' were on hand to shoot. Latimer and Frank are beginners, 
and that they are made of the right material is proven by their 
appearance in weather like that of to-day. Both did nicely, too, 
Latimer's shooting in event No. 4 being exceptionally good for a 
beginner. 
In the race for the club cup, Traver, Claymark and Winans 
tied on full scores. In the next event, for the Traver cup, Traver 
and Winans tied again, making them tie for both cups. Marshall 
and Smith also tied with them for the Traver cup. In the shoot- 
off Traver made another full score, and as the others had all 
fallen by the wayside, he scored a double win. Scores follow:

March 10.— The effect of the good weather to-day was quite 
noticeable in the attendance, fourteen men being present. The 
shooting was generally good, considering that a great many^ of 
the targets thrown were pick-ups, some of which were full of ice. 
Travers did some excellent work. He broke his first 48 straight, 
and scored 96 out of his first 100, which score is within 2 points 
of the best ever made on these grounds. Out of a total of 145 
shots, Traver averaged 92% per cent. Mr. Ralph Jones, of Fish- 
kill-on-the-Hudson, was a guest of the club, and did some good 
shooting, notwithstanding that both gun and grounds were strange 
to him. J. Rhoades and Claymark tied in the cup event proper, 
Rhodes afterward defeating Claymark. Smith came along after 
Rhodes had left the grounds, and in his trial for the cup made a 
straight score and tied Rhodes. Du Bois in event No. 7 was try- 
ing a .32 gun. He started off like a winner with it, too, but 
sc mething happened ; he don't know yet what it was.
