itional Board for Promotion of Rifle Practice 
Camp Perry Range, Ohio, Aug. 14.—Everything points 
a most successful week for the sixth annual tourna- 
ent of the Ohio State Rifle Association. More riflemen 
e here than were in attendance on these matches last 
:ar or the year before, attracted by the unusually rich 
izs and the variety of the matches. During the week 
e officers of the range have been busy getting up tents 
id otherwise completing the arrangements to take care 
the teams and individuals who will occupy the range 
r the next two weeks or longer. The Ohio National 
iiard matches, which closed Friday, were the most sue- 
ssful in the history of that organization, and the 
aces vacated by the State guardsmen are being taken 
• those from all parts of the United States. To-morrow 
e Catrow cup will be contested for, and the large list 
entries to-night gives promise of exciting sport. The 
nditions make it a rival of the Leach cup, being 
,ven shots at 800 900 and 1,000 yards. Col. H. G. 
itrow, of the O. N. G., has given a $500 cup for this 
atch, and there are twelve cash prizes with a gold 
edal to the winner, who also keeps the cup for one 
ar. To-morrow afternoon the “re-entry team skirmish 
atch” is scheduled. This is unique, from the fact 
•.at teams can re-enter, and is open to practically every- 
dy desiring to compete, except that teams in the 
itional match are not eligible for prizes, except those 
■iich correspond to their standing last year. As the 
mber of teams an organization may enter is un- 
hited, as is the number of runs to be made, a wildly 
<citing contest is expected. 
In '1 uesday the Adjutant-General’s cup match will be 
;Dt with 20 shots at 1,000yds. This is a new match, 
([•responding to the time-honored “Wimbledon cup” 
ntch, and carries with it a $500 cup, a gold medal and 
telve cash prizes. in the afternoon is the Peters 
‘ rmish match and the Dupont individual tyro match. 
3 r this match the Dupont Company gives $250, to 
\ ich the Ohio State Kitle Association has added $150, 
t: money being divided into forty-three prizes. The 
ctance is 800yds., and the match is open to any one 
v 0 has never won a first, second or third prize in a 
ftional Rifle Association match, the National individual 
rtch, or \v T ho has not shot on one of the first six teams 
i a National match. « 
t is unnecessary to say that the Herrick trophy 
rtch, on Wednesday, will bring out a large number 
: teams. This is one of the richest matches in the 
:mtry, and carries with it the Herrick trophy, valued 
1 thousands of dollars, and presented by ex-Governor 
tf'ron T. Herrick, of Ohio. It is open to teams of 
slit, and there will be fifteen shots per man at 800, 
) and 1,000 yards. The winning team will hold the 
: phy for a year, and will receive $200 in cash and 
lividual medals. It is strictly a military match. On 
Lursday the Governor’s match will be shot. This match 
5 designed to correspond to the President’s match, 
\ ch is shot under the auspices of the National Rifle 
^iociation, and includes a skirmish run, 200yds. slow 
i, 600yds. slow fire, 200yds. rapid fire, SOOyds. and 
..0yds. All competitors, except the first fifty, must 
> a re-entry fee if they continue beyond the 600yds. 
ige. For this match there are eighteen prizes for 
1 ; regates, and additional prizes for the skirmish run, 
• id fire, slow fire and long range fire (800 and 1,000). 
'ther matches during the week are: Allcomers off- 
ld; allcomers 600yds.; Buckeye 1,000yds.; individual 
;id fire; allcomers mid-range, 500yds.; individual

Where, When and How to Catch 
Fish on the East Coast of Florida 
By Win H. Gregg, of St. Louis, Mo., assisted by Capt. 
John Gardner, of Ponce Park, Mosquito Inlet, Era. 
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.

Steel Fishing Rods 
“Fishing Vacations” are always the most enjoyable. 1 
They rest the brain, bring long, peaceful sleep, 
build, up the body and furnish the maximum of 
• vacation joy. Stick a “BRISTOL” in your bag 
and spend next winter talking about this—the 
best of all your vacations. 
Every “BRISTOL” Rod is guaranteed for three 
years. Remember, that a steel rod is not a gen¬ 
uine “BRISTOL” unless it has the distinguish¬ 
ing trade mark, shown above, stamped on the 
reel seat. If your dealer does not handle 
“BRISTOL” Rods, particularly the Rod that you 
want, and won’t exert himself to get it for 
you, write to us and we will see that you get it 
without inconvenience or delay. Catalogue 
and fish hook disgorger mailed on request.

THE ANGLER’S WORKSHOP 
Rodmaking for Beginners 
By PERRY D. FRAZER 
A UNIQUE work, bringing the science of rodmaking up to the very moment and 
epitomizing the knowledge and experience of experts for the guidance of the 
average man. The evolution of bait-casting principles has made Mr. Frazer’s 
book supersede all previous publications on the subject. 
Every angler—young or old—who is fond of adapting his rods and tackle to his own 
ideas of what they should be, will find in this book a large fund of information gathered 
by the author in years of study, experiment and practical experience in fishing, tourna¬ 
ment casting and at the work bench. He theorizes and speculates not at all. He tells 
“the how” of everything connected with rodmaking in a way that makes results certain. 
All explanations are simple and easily followed. 
Separate chapters are devoted to each of a half dozen types of bait-casting rods; to 
tarpon, surf and light salt water rods; bass and trout, salmon and tournament fly-rods. 
Complete specifications of well-known types are given, and the chapter on split bamboo 
rodmaking is the most comprehensive treatise on the subject ever published. Indis¬ 
pensable in the angler’s library. 
Cloth, 180 pages, four full-page illustrations, 60 working drawings, making plain 
every feature of the text. Postpaid, $1.00.
