Prospects for Fall Shooting in
South Jersey
AL sMALL GAME PLENTIFUL

11e 4 uwa Ahs nd nc sf On ail and
Rabbits Angurs fine Season for
sportsnaen--P1enty Of PIover and Sea-
coast Birds-Prospecss for Reed Birds.
Biackbirds scarce.
WATERFORD. n. j., Aug. 22.-The
prospects for fall shooting IN south Jcr-
sey were never more favorable than
now. There are more rabbits than have
been seen for years snl quail are plen-
tiful. This is owing to the wet season.
The swamps being full Of water the
birds have Matched their young and the
rabbits selected their breeding places on
high ground. In dry seasons these
game animals and birds select any place
- breed and the heavy storms drown
many.
PIover Unusually Plentiful
tt Is many years since so many field
plover have visited Camden and the
lower counties. The fields are full of
them and many have been shot. These
are usually shot from carriages. A man
IN vehicle can approach within few
wards Of this game bird, where they will
flee az the approach Of a man on foot
fifty or 100 yards away. Judge Wes-
colt. Of Camden. shot seventeen plover
In few hours from a buggy at Had
doniield Some bull head plover have
been shot az Berlin. The bull head is
easily shot. When raised, the first bird
shot can be used as a stool, and the re-
mainder of the flock will circle about
and return to the same place where the
bird Is supposed to Ia feeding.
Indications for small Game.
Not only are these upland birds more
plentiful than they have been for years,
but yellow legs aud other seacoast birds
are found in large and numerous fiocks,
and snipe are shot in some sections from
the piazzas of dwellings.
Sportsmen predict that reed birds will
be plentiful during the coming season,
which opens Sept. /. A number have
already been seen by persons cunning
after blackhirds. The reeds are rank
and full of seeds, and everything is
favorable for q successful season of
shooting.
BIackbirds are reported scarce, all
though small number are marketed
daily. Gunners say that they are very
scarce in this vicinity as compared with
last season at this time. They are bring
ing from twelve to fifteen cents per
dozen.
Good Prospects for Deer Shooting.
The season for deer viii not open UNI
ill Nov. 2. 1890. and the prospects for
deer shooting then are good. The close
season of the. past two years has in
creased the large game wonderfully.
Traces OF these animals have been found
rs FAR up rs " inslow, and the Atlantic
county people say there are lots Of them
ii the vicinity Of Buena Vista, Dough-
tvs tavern and Weymouth, while down
IN Cumberland county many traces are
seen.
There are many signs being put up
BY farmers ia Camden and Atlantic
counties prohibiting cunning on their
properties Some of these signs are
short hut meaning. A sign near Water
ford bears the Inscription, .sOff.

That unfortunate Tower.

The electric light tower, which is being
rebuilt on the public square, had almost
reached completion; only one length OF
pipe was to be attached; the lamp holder
was elevated one hundred and twenty
five feet; the whole structure was sus-
pended on the pullcys, by which it had
been huiStcd Mr.. Adams the superinten-
dent was on one OF the cross braces six
teen feet from the ground when some
thing broke, and tower, superintendent
and all came to terra tirma.
Fortunately Mr.. Adams was slightly
iniurncd; DR.. Burroughs was soon in
attendance and pronounced his wounds
not serious, and gave relief to his
bruises.
- The tower fell perpendicularly sixteen
feet, burying the bottom in the brick
pavement, and so far Stacking the guy
ropes as to cause the structure to as
sumo an ugly cant towards the street.
This was soon remedied, and all things
made snug and safe until this morning
when the erection will be completed.

The Great Explorer $ anIey
Turns up alI Right.

LONDON, November 21.-Stanley has
been heard from. His despatch states
that he has made an important dis
cOvery; that there is an extension OF
Lake Nyssa. The British consul at
Zansibar telcgraphs to the foreign Office
as follows:
Stanley arrived at M'pwapwa on the
55th day after his departure from Vic
toria Nvanza, and the 1SSth day after
leaving Albert Nyanza. In addition to
names already tcIcgrapned, Stanley has
with him Hoffman, Emn slaughter, and
fathers Grault and Schnzr Of the Algc-
rian Mission. Stanley left Mpwapwa
on the Goth, travelling toward the coast
by way of kcmba and M'wimi. Stanley
made an unexpected discovery of real
value in finding the extension of the NiCto-
ria NyauZa toward the south west. The
utmost southerly reach of extension is
south latitude two degrees and forty
eight minutes. This brings the Victoria
Nyauza within 155 miles of lake Tangan-
yike. The area of extension is 26,9OO
square miles.
According to further advices received
