At Close Quarters 
or at long range, U. M. C. Big Game Cartridges give full satisfaction. 
They will knock down a charging bear and keep him down. They 
will carry across the lake to the distant buck. The curve of the bul¬ 
let’s flight is true to the sight’s elevation because the powder charge 
is uniform, the diameter of the bullet exact and the cartridge is 
practically perfect. The new .35 Remington Autoloading Rifle 
Cartridge is now ready, with 2,000 feet velocity and 200 grain 
bullet—a wonderful cartridge and gun.

Montclair Gun Club. 
Montclair, N. J., Dec. 1.—The Montclair Gun Club 
held its annual meeting and dinner at the Montclair 
Club this evening. The members sat down to a most 
elaborate dinner in the club dining room at 7 P. M. 
The tables were decorated with various cUps, guns and 
trophies won during the year. At 8:30 P. M. President 
Batten called the members to order for the purpose of 
hearing the annual reports and for the election of of¬ 
ficers for the ensuing year. The secretary’s report showed 
a gratifying increase in membership, and average at¬ 
tendance at the shoot during the year, while the treas¬ 
urer’s books showed, with every bill paid and one-third 
the cost of plant wiped off the books for depreciation, a 
large surplus in the bank. 
The nominating committee, Messrs. Halloway • and 
Allan then reported, naming as officers for the ensuing 
as follows: For president, Mr. Geo. Batten; for secretary, 
Mr. Edward Winslow; for treasurer, Mr. E. H. Holmes; 
for field captain, Mr. C. L. Bush; for handicapping 
committee, Mr. P. H. Cockefair, Mr. W. B. Perley and 
Mr. Geo. F. Howard, or practically the same officers 
as have served during the past year. The ticket as 
presented was elected by acclamation. 
The policy of the club as to events and prizes for the 
new year was discussed at some length. 
The surprise of the evening—at least to one of those 
present—came near the close, when in a brief speech 
the president presented to the secretary, Mr. Winslow, on 
behalf of the club in testimony of its appreciation of his 
services, a very handsome hammerless ejector gun, valued 
at $185. Mr. Winslow fqund it a difficult matter to ex¬ 
press his thanks and appreciation for such a valuable 
and beautiful gift, coming, as it did, so unexpectedly. 
Thursday, Nov. 29.—Some eleven members were pres¬ 
ent this morning and took part in the regular Thanks¬ 
giving Day turkey shoot. 
Event 1, 25 targets, for a lGlb. turkey, was tied for by 
Messrs. Batten and Winslow, Batten winning, out in the 
shoot-off. Dukes was the winner of the second turkey, 
event 2, and Wallace of the third turkey, event 3. 
Baker, a young man of fourteen, tried his hand at trap¬ 
shooting for the second time, and broke 5 out of 10 
targets.
