By GEORGE BIRD GRINNELL 
Atlantic City Gun Club. 
Atlantic City, N. J., March 4.—With ideal weather 
conditions, the scores for this afternoon’s shoot were 
very satisfactory. Powers led the field with an average 
of 91 per cent; he was closely followed by Cook, Young 
and Westcott. 
The Easter Monday shoot is going to draw a large 
field, as inquiries are coining in thick and fast for pro¬ 
grams, and we expect to have about eighty shooters on 
the line. Come down and spend the day with us and 
shoot over one of the best grounds in the country. 
The State shoot, which is toi be held here in June, 
carries with it over $1000 in cash and merchandise, which 
can be had for the price of targets only. There will be 
optional sweeps for the ones who wish to go in. Scores:

N O single gunner, however wide his experience, has himself covered 
the whole broad field of duck shooting, and none knows so much 
about the sport that there is nothing left for him to learn. Each 
one may acquire a vast amount of novel information by reading this 
complete and most interesting book. It describes, with a portrait, every 
species of duck, goose and swan known to North America; tells of the 
various methods of capturing each, the guns, ammunition, loads, decoys 
and boats used in the sport, and gives the best account ever published of 
the retrieving Chesapeake Bay Dog. 
About 6oo pages, 58 portraits of fowl, 8 full-page plates, and many 
vignette head and tail pieces by Wilmot Townsend.
