Sam did not want his scores published, but we let 
em speak for themselves. 
Brown cannot understand his poor shooting, as the 
me iron has smashed SO per cent, for him, and he says 
' feels as good as ever. 
Beigel is a beginner wdio catches on to the game very 
adily, and promises soon to become as sincere a 
ank as the oldest of the veterans. 
If any of you fellows have any kicks coming, write to 
ambell, in care of the Beach Club, Palm Beach, Fla. 
e has nothing to do, while no one here has time to 
hen to your growls. 
Walking is an appetizer to Pinochle Lou. He walked 
a bit one day this week, and had you seen him later 
punish one of Mrs. Gambell’s dir ters, you would have 
understod why he took the stroll. 
Those scores look a little better. ’ Guess we will send 
Gambell a copy. 
Recent word from Coleman is in the same pleasant 
vein as his conversation, which always assured him such 
a hearty welcome at the club. 
Come on, Baldy, we have not seen one of your 
Trapelo Gun Club write-ups for quite a while. 
Feb. 16.—For the first time in months we had a clear 
day for our sport, and the changed condition was re¬ 
flected in the countenances of those present. 
Plesser is gradually working back where he belongs. 
Halsted is another who shows the result of consistent 
practice with a determination to get next to the game. 
Charley Dreihs dropped in on us for a day and showed 
us how to remember the right spot. 
What’s become of Bonser? 
Wait until we get our jackets warmed here at home, 
Dayton, we want to be accustomed to it when we tackle 
you. » 
Ward, though not shooting, likes the company and 
butts in very regularly. 
Miss Altherr never gets through a contest without an 
accident or mishap of some kind. She lost her sight 
this time. Seemed like old times to see her at the score. 
Doctor’s streak in the first event made possible an 
even break in the two-man matches. 
Gambell will be glad to get back home, and we will 
all be pleased to see him. 
The weather has been so disagreeable this winter that 
we have made little use of the old style system of traps. 
Possibly Washington’s Birthday will afford us an oppor¬ 
tunity to try them again. Don’t forget, it comes on 
Friday.
