Where, When and How to Cate 
Fish on the East Coast of Floric 
By Wm. H. Gregg, of St. Louis, Mo., assisted by Capt 
John Gardner, of Pence 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 desires 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.

Interclub Shooting League. 
Washington, D. C., Feb. 26.—The winning streak of 
the Winchester Rod and Gun Club, of New Haven, 
Conn., brought up with a bump against the Rocky 
Mountain Rifle Club, of Butte, Mont., in this week’s 
series of matches of the Interclub Shooting League 
now going on. This is the first defeat for the New 
Haven experts, and to make it worse, only six points 
separated them from their victors, their score being 967 
to 973 for the Butte shooters. This brings about a tie 
for first place in the League’s matches between the 
following four clubs: Winchester Rod and Gun Club, 
New Haven, Conn.; Rocky Mountain Rifle Club, Butte, 
Mont.: Warren Rifle and Revolver Club, Warren, Pa., 
and the Myles Standish Rifle Club, of Portland, Me., 
closely followed by the Fort Pitt Rifle Club, of Pitts¬ 
burg, Pa. 
The improvement in the shooting of the teams since 
the first match is very noticeable. The four leading 
teams this week made over 950 points out of a possible 
1000 points. Considering that the firing js all being 
done on a target with, a bullseye %in. in diameter, 
counting 10, and in the gallery at 75ft., with ,22cal. rifles 
with plain open sights, in front of the firing pin, it can 
be seen we have some very skillful marksmen in this 
country. The score of the different teams in the League 
made in the matches this week, and the standing of the 
clubs to date, are as follows:

. A FISHING DOG. 
Lovers of dogs will be interested to hear of 
a canine fisherman at Mill Beach, a hamlet on 
the Blackwater Estuary, near Maldon, in Essex. 
The dog, which answers to the name of Towser, 
is a good-looking retriever about two years 
old, and is the property of B. Handley, the 
proprietor of a restaurant much frequented by 
holiday folk during the summer. Close to the 
house is a moderate-sized lake, which is fed 
with water at every flow of the tide in the 
estuary, and is well stocked with fish, chiefly 
flounders, dabs and plaice. Towser has de¬ 
veloped the habit of walking round the edge 
of the lake, and when the opportunity presents 
itself he plunges into the water after a fish. 
In this he has become extraordinarily expert, 
and very frequently emerges with a good dab 
or flounder between his teeth. Curiously 
enough, the dog is not fond of a fish dinner 
himself, but the domestic cat makes up for his 
deficiencies in this respect. Pussy frequently 
accompanies him on his angling expeditions, 
and may be seen seated near the edge of the 
lake watching operations. Towser when suc¬ 
cessful deposits his catch near his friend and 
companion, who loses no time in appropriating 
it for her own use. During the past summer 
visitors to the restaurant have been highly 
amused by the keenness and skill of the four- 
footed angler, who it is said, like a true sports¬ 
man disdains the small fry in the lake and de¬ 
votes himself to well-grown specimens. The 
retriever formerly belonged to a devotee of the 
rod and line, but he was never taught to fish. 
He is also described as a very useful dog in 
the shooting field.—Field.
