Shell Mound Range. 
San Francisco, Nov. 25.—Subsequent to the great fire 
all the local rifle clubs which have been shooting at 
Shell Mound range temporarily suspended their regular 
shoots. One by one they are now resuming target work. 
To-day mine Tiost of the park and shooting range gave a 
public turkey shoot. A large number of riflemen par¬ 
ticipated, and several score of birds were won by the 
contestants.

regular shoot for medals, and the revolver shoot brought 
out some very fine scores, viz.:

on the range for many moons. Captain Stelling made 
the fine score of 73.

fire to put a lover of shooting down and out.

PUBLISHERS’ DEPARTMENT. 
Good buffalo heads are becoming more and more rare, 
and for this reason one desiring a good specimen will do 
well to consider the advertisement printed in another 
column. A photograph will be sent on application. 
The single trigger for the shotgun has already achieved 
a wide popularity and is likely to grow still more in 
favor. As with all new devices, many mechanical dif¬ 
ficulties have had to be overcome before satisfactory 
action could be had, and this has taken some time. 
In the Perfect Single Trigger advertised by the Phila¬ 
delphia Company of the same name in another column, 
it is believed that these difficulties have been overcome, 
and the action of their device is guaranteed. A descrip¬ 
tive booklet will be sent to any applicant by the Phila¬ 
delphia Single Trigger Co., Olney, Philadelphia, P. 
The cold snap of early winter warns those who con¬ 
template a southern trip to begin to consider ways 
and means. For him who 1 has the time, one of the 
pleasantest ways of getting south is by water, and for this 
journey the Clyde Line to Florida promises an easy and 
a comfortable route. The fast modern steamships and 
the superior service make this means of travel very 
attractive. Information will be given by Theo. G. Eger, 
V. P. and G. M., 290 Broadway, New York.
