American Natch. 
Jersey City, Feb. 22.—The fifth annual American 
record match was shot to-day at Armbruster’s Green¬ 
ville Schuetzen Park, in this city, and at various other 
places throughout the country conjointly. This match 
calls for 100 shots per man at 200yds. in the standing 
position, offhand, on the Standard American target. 
Any rifle, any ammunition and any sights, including 
telescopic, are allowed. The match in Jersey City was 
won by Arthur Hubalek. All the contestants used tele¬ 
scopic sights. The contest was followed by a dinner in 
the evening at which the riflemen entertained their 
friends, among whom were Lieut-Col. Brinkerhoff and 
Major A. L. Steele, of the 4th Regiment. 
After the dinner the prizes were distributed and speech¬ 
making followed. 
The French medal, for the highest aggregate, is 
awarded to the man in any part of the country who shall 
have the best total in his 100 shots. The Armbruster 
medal for the best 10-shot score was won by W. H. 
French, who scored 97, one point below the record. 
Other prizes were selected by the riflemen according to 
the merit of their scores. 
The following officers were elected for the ensuing 
year: President, Dr. H. H. Brinkerhoff; "Vice-President, 
Arthur Hubalek; Treasurer, L. P. Hansen; Secretary,

Steel Fisbin^ Rods 
Ideal for Brook Trout or any wary fish. An Old 
Guide says; "A ‘BRISTOL’ is harder for the fish to 
see over still water, doesn’t break half so easily, 
lasts four times as long, is more reliable, and more 
satisfactory and costs less.” He ought to know. 
He has been guiding fishermen—green and expert 
—for two generations;- has received many rods of 
all kinds as gifts, but sticks to his “ BRISTOL.” 
one or two for your fishing trip this year. Re¬ 
member, all steel rods are not “BRISTOLS”. If 
you want the Three Year Guarantee, ask for “BRIS¬ 
TOL” by name. Sold by best dealers everywhere.
