Independent Gun Club. 
Philadelphia. — The Independent Gun Club will hold 
their annual target- tournament and turkey shoot at 
Holmesburg Junction on T..n. 2, 1911. The , program con¬ 
sists of twelve 15-target events, optional sweep on each 
event, and a prize of a fresh-killed turkey on each event. 
'Phis is to^ be it handicap shoot, handicaps to be 1(1 to 
20yds. The indications are that the crowd will be larger 
than ever, especially the out-of-town contingent. 
Professionals shoot for price of targets only — a number 
of whom have already advised they will be here are as 
follows: Geo. Lyon, Durham. N. C.; PI. PI. Stevens, 
Roselle. N. J.; PI. L brown, Newark, N. J.; J. Mowed 
Hawkins, llaltimcre, lid : and Lynn Worthington, Ris¬ 
ing Sun, Md.; Haze Keller, New Vork; Tom Keller, 
New York; Neaf Apgar, Plainfield, N. J.; Lloyd Lewis, 
Atglen, Pa.; J. T. Skelly, Wilmington, Del.; Lester 
German, Aberdeen, Aid., and IV. B. Darton. 
1 his shoot is open to all amateurs, and beginners are 
cordially invited, and as it is a stationary distance handi¬ 
cap (not sliding handicap), the poorer shooters will 
have an equal chance with the scratch men. The Penn¬ 
sylvania Railroad will stop the express leaving Broad 
Street Station at S:l3 A. AL, at Holmesburg Junction, on 
this date, to let off shooters. W. E. Robinson, 127 North 
Edgewood street, Philadelphia, will furnish program on 
application. 
Hyde Park Gun Club. 
Cincinnati. O.—The regular shoot on Dec. 10 was 
poorly attended, owing to the bad weather. A strong 
wind made the flight cf the targets very erratic, and 
high scores were not made. De Mar and Shepard had 
a close race for first place, the former winning by 1 
target, 63 to 62. The early approach of darkness stopped 
the sport at the finish of the third 25-target event, len- 
kins was out to-day for the first time since the tri-state 
shoot, but had time for only one event before dark. 
Jones had to use a borrowed gun, and this helped keep 
his scores down. Hoggatt is a new one, who will bear 
watching; his score to-day‘was a good one under the 
prevailing conditions.

The Cincinnati Police and Cincinnati Revolver Club 
teams met in their first match of the winter’s series on 
Dec. 9 - T he match was shot on the range at City llall 
Cincinnati. The Police team proved an easy winner but 
the Revolver Club had the best man at the rapid fire

•11 ton to the 20 shots slow fire, and this innovation 
will prove a benefit as well as increase the interest in 
the matches. P. L. Curbs, of the Police, was high man 
with a total of 198. In the 20 shots, slow fire Allan 
Moore was high with 162 to Curbs’ 161. Dr Phillips

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 
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, 
and all the thousand and one details, the knowledge of which spells the difference 
between success and failure in houseboat building and houseboat life. 
Details, plans, drawings and specifications illuminate the text, while life on 
houseboats is interestingly described. Some of the more noted English and 
American houseboats and the life thereon are also described at length with illus¬ 
trations. Buckram, heavy paper, sumptuously illustrated.
