very dry—the latter, we are assured, only in case one has 
neither friends nor money. We are informed that Messrs. 
Ford and Munro had some fine sport- with the quail, and 
made several good bags.

Hudson Valley Rod and Gun Club. 
Glens Falls, N. Y.—Despite the fact that zero 
weather prevailed Saturday afternoon, seven of the boys 
put in an appearance and kept things lively while they 
could stay away from the stove. After every event, 
however, there was 3 wild break for the club house, so 
they could thaw out. Considering the conditions, Witt 
did some fine shooting, and had things about all his own 
way except in one or two events. 
The committee in charge of arrangements for our 
tournament to be held April 25 are getting busy, and will 
put on a good programme, with both added and average 
money. One of the features will be a team shoot, open 
to teams of five men each from the clubs in this vicinity. 
Saturday’s scores follow:

New Haven Gun Club. 
New Haven, Conn. Feb. 12.—The day was beautiful, 
and we had one of the most enjoyable shoots we have 
had in years. A special feature was a team race, open 
to members only. It was hugely enjoyed by all. Capt. 
Bristol, of team No. 1, chose ten men, and Capt. Penn 
likewise. 
Capt. Penn is a veteran fox hunter and bird shooter. 
Capt. Bristol is “king trapshooter for his age.” 
The race resulted in a tie, 170 targets each team. In 
the shoot-off between the two captains, Bristol won, 18 
to 15 out of 25. 
Team No. 1 drew for first and second prizes. After 
several had drawn, R. H. Smith, of Seymour, drew 
first prize, a $2.50 watch. After several more ties, W. W. 
Rice drew second prize, a $1.50 razor. The losing team 
then drew lots for booby prize, and after several at¬ 
tempts, J. B. Savage drew the lucky number, winning a 
comb. 
Mr. Bristol and Mr. Penn are the two oldest men in 
the club. Each shot of the shoot-off was greeted with 
cheers or groans, according as target was dead or lost. 
These team races will continue for the rest of the year 
at the regular monthly shoots. 
The club will also hold three registered Interstate As¬ 
sociation tournaments: Washington’s Birthday, Feb. 22 
(programmes are out); Good Friday, April 17, and 
Decoration Day, May 30. We are making great prepara¬ 
tions to make them the most successful snoots in Con¬ 
necticut this year.
