Where. When and How to Catch 
Fish on the East Coast of Florida 
By Wm H. Gregg, of St. Louis, Mo., assisted by Capt. 
John Gardner, of Ponce Park, Mosquito Inlet, Fla. 
With 100 engravings, and 12 colored illustrations. 
Cloth. Illustrated. 268 pages. Map. Price, $4.00. 
A visitor to Florida can hardly make the trip without 
this book, if he is at all interested in angling. It gives a 
very complete list of the fishes of the East Coast of 
Florida, and every species is illustrated by a cut taken 
from the best authorities. The cuts are thus of the most 
value to the angler who desides to identify the fish he 
takes, while the colored plates of the tropical fish shown 
in all their wonderful gorgeousness of coloring, are very 
beautiful. Besides the pictures of fish, there are cuts 
showing portions of the fishing tackle which the author 
uses. A good index completes the volume.

Philadelphia Rifle Association. 
Philadelphia, Pa., May 21.—The following scores were 
made at the indoor range, 1406 Washington avenue, on 
Tuesday and Thursday evening. Jaques was high man in 
the rifle competitions with several scores of 240 and one 
of 246. We trust that the revolver shots will turn out 
as strong for the match with the Cypress Hills Rifle and 
Revolver Association on Decoration Day as the military 
men did in their attendance at last Saturday’s competi¬ 
tion with them. 
Tuesday evening, rifle match, 25yds.: T. D. Jaques, 
246, 241, 240, 240, 240, 238, 237, 237; R. L. Dubbs, 238, 233;

May 18. — The telegraphic rifle match between teams 
from the Philadelphia Rifle Association and the Cypress 
Hills Rifle and Revolver Association, Brooklyn, was shot 
yesterday, resulting in a victory for the local team by a 
score of 440 to 430. Weather conditions were ideal on 
both ranges, but the Brooklyn team was unfortunate in 
having two of their best men absent. The Philadelphia 
team shot on their home range, at Lansdowne avenue 
and Cedar Lane, and Spering was high man, with con¬ 
secutive scores of 47 and 45, an aggregate of 92 for his 
20 shots, out of a possible 100 points. The conditions 
were teams of five men, two sighting shots and 20 shots 
for record each, military rifles, any ammunition at 200yds., 
offhand. The scores follow:
