Opening Day at Union Hill. 
Tue large shooting pavilion in Union Hill Shooting 
Park, Union Hill, N. J., which was destroyed by fire 
not long ago, together with other buildings in the park, 
has been rebuilt by the owners, the Plattdeutsche Volks- 
fest Verein, at a cost of $35,000, and will be formally 
opened by John Moje, the lessee, on May 11 with a 
prize shoot open to all of the members of rifle clubs 
which hold shoots regularly in the park during the 
warm season. The committee which has been given 
charge of the affair consists of the following: ; j 
Muller, captain of the New York Central Schuetzen 
Corps, chairman; Fred Facompre, of the New York 
Schuetzen Corps, secretary; Gus Zimmermann, of the 
Independent New York Schuetzen Corps, referee.

and close at 7 P. M. On the ring target there will be 
sixteen prizes, total $115, and on the bullseye target 
twelve prizes aggregating $75. For the team shoot, ten 
men each team, ten shots per man, teams will receive 
prizes according to their scores, while the man who 
makes the highest score in this match will get a gold 
medal. In addition there will be bowling for both 
members and their wives, with appropriate prizes.

Pawtuxet Gun Club. 
Pawtuxet, R. I.—April 1.—The members of the 
Pawtuxet Gun Club are just beginning to come to the 
shoot now; the walking is very poor here. A great 
deal of interest is shown this spring, and the members 
intend to do things at our annual meeting, next week. 
In view of the fact that new guns and guns ot 
small bore were tried out to-day, and that a northeast 
wind made the birds flighty, the following scores are 
good:

The place from which I write is pleasantly situated on 
the headwaters of the Susquehanna. It is facetiously 
called the ‘Saints’ Rest,” and is the resort, in summer, 
of many Izaak Waltons from New York, who never fail 
to find plenty of fish and fun. Two years ago a gentle- 
man came here from Rochester to try his skill in angling, 
and to recuperate his health. Besides the trout, we have 
plenty of venison, and Mr. Sykes thought as he had not 
been very successful in fishing, he would take home a 
few skins of deer as trophies of his skill in the use of the 
gun. Matthew, the waggish son of mine host of the 
Saints’ Rest, accommodated him with a doe skin, and 
one from a fawn, and lastly the skin of a fine colt that 
died in the spring, and which, he assured Mr. Sykes, was 
off the back of a splendid old buck. The gallant sports- 
man returns to Rochester with the spoils of his field 
sports, and in the midst of admiring friends recounts the 
excitements, perils and triumphs of the chase, display- 
ing the skins, the proofs and fruits of his sport. An old 
friend eyes the skins sharply, and begins: 
“Sykes, did you kill that beautiful fawn?” 
“Certainly, I did.” 
“And that doe, too?” 
“To be sure, I did.” 
“And did that old buck die hard?” 
“Dreadful hard,” said Sykes, growing impatient. 
“Look here,” said the provoking friend, “whoever sold 
you that colt’s skin for a buck’s skin, sold you and 
skinned you, too.” 
Mr. Sykes never boasted of his deer shooting again, 
and did not return last year to join us in the season of 
sport. ‘
