[Jan. 14, 1911. 
Y OU know mallards—wisest and wariest of all 
ducks—Solomons of the air. You can’t knock 
down mallards with a paddle nor can you get them 
with a gun that plasters its shots all over the face 
of creation. 
A mallard shot is generally a long shot, and long 
shots require a hard-shooting, close-shooting gun. 
That’s why the long-headed man who goes to a 
mallard country takes a Lefever. When he swings 
it on a towering pair of mallards he does not ques¬ 
tion the result. He know it— 
TWO CLEAN KILLS 
The reason a Lefever kills clean and sure and 
far is Lefever Taper Boring. 
But if you buy a Lefever for the taper boring 
alone, you will get more than your money’s worth. 
For insiance, you will never be handicapped with 
looseness at the hinge joint. The exclusive Lefever 
screw compensates for a year’s wear by a trifling 
turn that you make yourself with a screwdriver. 
LEFEVER 
SHOT GUNS 
Sixteen other exclusive Lefever features and Lefe¬ 
ver simplicity and strength make the §28 gun the 
peer of any £50 gun on the market. Upwards to

Where, When and How to Catch 
Fish on the East Coast of Florida 
WHERE, WHEN AND HOW TO CATCH FISH 
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. 238 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 ot 
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.

The shop itself, the place of business of Uncle Lisha 
Peggs, bootmaker and repairer, was a sort of sportsman’s 
exchange, where, as one of the fraternity expressed it, 
the hunters and fishermen of the widely scattered neigh¬ 
borhood used to meet of evenings and dull outdoor days 
“to swap lies.”

Crescent Athletic Club. 
Bay Ridge, L. I., Jan. 7.- —The delightful weather 
favored good scoring at the Bay Ridge traps of the 
Crescent Athletic Club to-day, and as a consequence 
ties were numerous. For the January cup, A. Corlies 
was high alone with 24, and he also scored a leg on 
the James cup after shooting off a tie on 25 with F. S, 
Hyatt, H. B. Vanderveer ; D. T. Leahy and C. A. Lock 
wood; Corlies scored 24 in the shoot-off. For the Lock 
wood trophy, F. B. Stephenson, R. E. Fox and H. B 
Vanderveer tied on 25, Stephenson winning in the shoot- 
off. Five tied on 25 for the James trophy. 
The final shoot for the Brower trophy was an interest¬ 
ing feature. On New Year’s day of 1910, this cup 
started as an object of competition. The contestants 
were paired, and the defeated brace mate was out of 
the competition. This was continued till the winner 
was determined. It is a most unfair method of settling 
a contest, as a contestant defeated in the first series 
may score higher than the final winner. C. Ferguson was 
a guest of the club. The scores;
