A series of shoots for yearly class trophies and class 
period trophies was started over the Edge Hill traps on 
the 25th prox., by the Highland Gun Club. Jesse 
Griffith started off with the initiatory honors by breaking 
24 in the former event, with Thomas Tansey and J. H. 
Anderson sharing the remaining points with 23 each, and 
Biddle managing to qualify with 22. 
In the class shoot, Tansey was high with 24’, Griffith 
and Anderson being tied with 23, and Hoover, Wentz 
and Meehan finishing next with 21. 
The class spoon winners were: Thomas Tansey in 
('lass A, with 24; J. H. Anderson in Class B, with 23; 
Ur. Wentz in Class C with 21, and Walter Firth in 
Class D with 17. In this latter event Laurent tied Firth,

Why do you 
go Hunting? 
One of the reasons is, you like to try your 
luck and skill against Nature’s protedion of 
game. You like to feel the pride of personal 
accomplishment. One of the chief necessities 
for a satisfactory day’s sport mud be good am¬ 
munition. In your load of powder you mud 
have confidence in its efficiency, and to point 
the gun right, you must not fear recoil. Use 
md you will have the necessary confidence and 
^ou will not feel the recoil. 
Any ammunition loaded with 
this popular powder gives uniform 
velocity, uniform pattern and 
uniform light recoil. Nearly all 
dealers can supply you with am¬ 
munition loaded with Dead Shot.

Bryden Gun Club. 
Catasaupua,' Pa.. Feb. 18.—Tt was a cloudy day, but 
six of the Bryden boys set .out for the club grounds and 
shot three events of 25 targets each. R. Thomas had 
not been out on the field for quite a while, but to-day 
showed the boys how to smash them, missing but 3 
birds out of his 75. Granville says, “It's a cinch for 
Mr. Thomas.” John L. Englert was away behind the 
game to-day; he used a new gun, which did not fit 
him. John, get wise, and use your own home-made 
stock again. President Brown tied Englert in the first 
and second events. Capt. Silfies broke 23 in the first 
and second events, scoring 46 out of 50 targets, a 92 per 
cent gait. 
Registration certificate has been received from Secre¬ 
tary E. E. Shaner, to hold a registered tournament on 
Saturday, July 8, 1911.

game. JA 11 along the route of the Railway are streams famous for their SALMON and TROUT fishing, also 
Caribou barrens. JAmericans who have been fishing and hunting in Newfoundland say there is no other country 
in the world in which so good fishing and hunting can be secured and with such ease as in Newfoundland.

PLANNING A HOUSEBOAT 
Will be a leisure-hour occupation in many a family this winter. Houseboating has 
come among us to stay, and promises to be even more popular than in England 
itself. Every one who is interested in houseboats or who contemplates taking up 
this feature of outdoor life, should read Mr. Albert Bradlee Hunt’s practical, and, ♦ 
at the same time, beautiful work on the houseboat and its adaptation to American 'f 
waters. ♦> 
HOUSEBOATS AND HOUSEBOATING 
Covers the entire range of its title, considers the use and opportunities of the house- 
boat; their relation to city and suburban life; construction, furnishing, motive power, J> 
and all the thousand and one details, the knowledge o which spells the difference |> 
between success and failure in houseboat building a id houseboat life. 
Details, plans, drawings and specifications illuminate the text, while life on r 
houseboats is interestingly described. Some of the more noted English and 1 ;, 
American houseboats and the life thereon are also described at length with illus- y 
trations. Buckram, heavy paper, sumptuously illustrated.
