May 18, S'cond Day, 
The second day of the tournament opened dull and showery, 
but did not dampen the enthusiasm of the shooters. After the

could be desired. Thirty-six shooters shot through the entire 
programme for the day. Of the professionals, Crosby was again 
high for the day with 189 out of 200 shot at; Durston, second, 
with 179, and Elliott, third, with 172. The high amateur average 
trophy for the day, a No. 2 Ithaca gun, valued at $70, presented 
by the Stanley Gun Club, went to Dr. Gleason with 185 out of 
^00. The second high amateur average trophy for the day, a 
handsome silver cup presented by the Stanley Gun Club, value 
$20, went to C. Turp, Toronto Junction, with 181 breaks. T. 
Upton, of Hamilton, Ont., was third, with 178. 
A special event was also put on the card for the day. Mr. J. 
Rowantree, of the National Gun Club, of this city, presented a 
handsome mounted deer head to be shot for at the close of the 
day's programme; entrance fee, birds only; 25 targets per man. 
Thirty-two contestants competed for the trophy. Dr. Gleason, 
Thos. Upton and Landrault tied with 24 out of 25. In the 
shoot-off Dr. Gleason won, who immediately presented the trophy 
to the Stanley Gun Club to decorate their new club house.

Aquidnecfc Gan Club. 
Newport, R. I.— While the attendance" at the fourth annual 
tournament, on May SO, fell far short of the expectations of the 
members, an otherwise successful shoot will go down into the 
history of the club. 
A hard rain during the early morning hours doubtless deterred 
many from starting, but as the morning wore on, the conditions 
improved, and the greater part of the day was marked by bright 
skies and a moderate breeze. But the small attendance no one 
could account for. 
It doesn't seem like a shoot without Bob Root there to lend a 
hand, satisfy the kickers and perform other duties that fall to the 
lot of the man who is willing to accommodate. And the social 
features of the meeting were by no means overlooked. During 
the lunch hour, the boys started a ball game in the vacant lot 
back of the club house, and after watching Horace Kirkwood en- 
deavoring to catch a fly, we no longer wonder why the Boston 
Americans are at the bottom of the heap. But the way he gobbled 
up the targets from 21yds. was truly scandalous. Griffith, too, 
ustially on hand, was conspicuous by his absence, as well as most 
of the up-State delegation generally seen at these shoots. 
The averaees were distributed among Kirkwood, Lewis, of 
Westport, Hughes and Bowler, the two latter saving some of the 
honors for the home talent. 
Events 4, 5 and 6. a total of 50 targets, comprised a distance 
handicap, nrize match. In this McArdle captured first, a folding 
Kodak, with 44: second to Serenson, a framed water color on 
43. The next prize brought out a contest, six tying on 41. Kirk- 
wood and Lewis tied on 23 in the first shoot-off, the latter win- 
ning the second shoot-off at 15 targets with 13, and taking the 
prize, a pocket flask. 
Bowler, it is presumed, will emulate the example of the Father 
of his Country, and do a little woodchopping_ with a pocket ax, 
v/hich wa,s his reward for fourth place in the prize match. Gosling 
must now smoke up, as he now is the possessor of a nice , brier 
pipe, which came ne5ct on the list, while Brother Hughes is wear- 
ing a handsome pearl scarfpin, and last, but not least, Johnson 
took as his reward a pocket electric lamp. Scores:

Club, of this city, held its . ninth regular weekly shoot of the sea- 
son at Recreation Ptirk, this afternoon, with eleven guns out. 
A hard rainstorm at 3 o'clock interfered with the programme for 
half an hour, after which a very blustery wind and flashy light 
made shooting very difficult, and as a consequence, all scores were 
not up to the average. 
Thfe club championship gold medal was won for the week by 
Elmer F. Jacobs, with an average for the day of 81.1 per cent., 
shooting through the entire programme. 
The officers' goblet was won by Everett B. Taylor, with a score

The despair which seizes an angler who has hooked a good! 
fish which gets off is so well recognized that a multitude of 
devices have been invented to keep a fish, once hooked, from 
freeing himself from the steel. One of these is the zigzag hook 
advertised in another column, for which is claimed the merit that 
the fish cannot become unhooked. The cost of these hooks is 
slio-ht and their qualities are worth investigating. Inquiry about 
them may be made of Fredricks, 842 Broadway, Brooklyn, N. Y. ' 
Wisconsin is famous as a fishing ground, and especially as tht'
