The Palefaces. 
Roston. Mass., April 29.—Some seventeen shooters 
sallied forth to Wellington marshes to-day for the sole 
purpose of taking advantage of a most perfect day for 
trapshooting, a somewhat new thing for us to experi¬ 
ence in this section, as during the last four months not 
a shooting day has this grounds seen that was conducive 
to good scores. 
However, only a few took advantage of it, one Geo. 
Hassam being considerably in the lime light, his 91 for 
second in the high average, and his 22 from 21yds. in the 
Powers trophy match being very clever shooting, his 
targets being blown out of sight, and leaving no doubt 
as to being right there with the goods. 
Robbie Burnes got them going some, too, but not 
coming in the regular programme, gets very little credit 
for his efforts. His 23 in the Powers match ties the high 
score, and will give him a nucleus to work on that should 
be of considerable use. 
Tn the 50-target, added bird, handicap, the results were 
most interesting, as all classes of shooters were entered, 
and from the score all classes of shooters tied in on the 
finals. Charles, Randall, Kirkwood, Hassam, Sibley and 
Atwood, all secured the necessary total, and it necessi¬ 
tated two shoot-offs to find the winner, each of the first 
three securing a possible in the first trial, and in the 
second the last mentioned lust nosed in ahead of Charles 
with one target to the good: 
Metropolitan Championship 
At Montclair, New Jersey, April 1st, 1908, was won by 
Mr. George Kouwenhoven, score 95 ex 100,

THE ANGLERS 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, 
tournament 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 re¬ 
sults 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. Indispen¬ 
sable in the angler’s library. 
Cloth, 180 pages, four full-page illustrations, 60 working drawings, making plain every 
feature of the text. Postpaid, $i.
