“THE POWDER THAT MAKES AND BREAKS RECORDS” 
Where, When and How to Catch 
Fish on the East Coast of Florida 
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 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 desires to identify the fish he 
takes, while the colored plates of the tropical fish shown 
in all their wonderful gor^eousness 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.

Hudson Gun Club. 
Jersey City, N. J., Oct. 23.—Appended are the scores 
made to-day at the Hudson Gun Club grounds, Jersey 
City.. The morning was bright and clear, but a gale that 
was blowing carried the targets 75yds. from the traps, 
causing them to cut up all kinds of antics, and made it 
very hard for the shooters to get them, the slower shots 
of the club were lost in knowing where to hold so as 
to make presentable scores. 
Schorty was high gun with 80 per cent, for the day, and 
Billy O’Brien was second choice, scoring 76 per cent, of 
his targets. Dr. Groll and Al. Kurzell started to shoot a 
race at 100 birds, but had to postpone it, owing to the 
Doctor’s gun getting out of order and having to use 
several strange guns that did not fit him, Kurzell agree¬ 
ing to shoot it off at the next club shoot. 
Jerry Putney, after an absence of over a year from 
the traps, blew in with his old Winchester and shell bag 
and started to do business just where he left off when 
here before, breaking 23 on his first try at them; but 
owing to his weakened condition, having been laid up 
with the rheumatism for ten months or more, he could 
not stand the strain, and dropped back several points 
in his next try. We all wish him good luck in regaining 
his old time strength and health, and hope to see him 
at the grounds as often as he used to come for the past 
several years. 
Our next shoot will be held on Nov. 6 . and everybody 
that likes to shoot bluerocks from good fast traps is 
welcome to spend the day with us.

Fairmont Gun Club. 
The fall tournament of the Fairmont Gun Club, held 
Oct. 19 and 20, at their grounds, at Westchester, W. Va., 
was well attended, and most of the scores were good. 
The weather was ideal, and had it not been for the Post 
Series tournament, we would have had a much larger 
attendance. 
Elgin gold watches were given to the three high ama¬ 
teurs for the two-days, and went to W. A. Wiedebusch, 
first, 381 out of 400. T. H. Punk, of Littleton, second, 
36S; O. D. Williams, 367, third. 
The trade was represented by J. M. Hawkins, Don 
Goshorn, J. C. Garland and Ed. H. Taylor. Taylor led 
tk.e professionals with 378 out of 400; Goshorn second, 371. 
E. O. Bower was not up to his gait, being just out of 
the hospital; he looked bad enough to go back. His side 
partner, McIntyre, was also laid out part of the time 
with his head. 
Wiedebusch came near getting an extra bar for his 
medal, but let a low one get away. Went out first day 
with 196 out of 200.

Indianapolis Gun Club. 
Indianapolis, Tnd., Oct., 22. —Scores were low to-day 
because .of a high wind. In practice, Hymer was the 
only one to break 20 straight and led in percentage 
broken. Lewis and Dixon tied for high score in the 
contest for the members’ trophy, which now seems to 
he going to Lewis, as hut one more score is to be 
shot and his lead will scarcely be overcome.
