THE GUN.
Where SpOrtsmen Can Find Good
Duck and Shine Shooting.


Several letters have reached this Office
recently asking for information as to where
a few days good duek-shooting can be had
near at hand.
Up to very recently local sportsmen would
have to journey long distances for a few
days shoot. The sporting editor has made
several inquiries, aud yesterday received a
letter from friend who resides at Tracy
which should satisfy all sportsmeD who are
waiting for tip as TO where gOUd duck
shoot can he obtained
The writer says: IF you or your friends
desire good sport you must come as soon as
possible to this part of the country. Take
the An. or $50 P. NJ. train from San Fran
cisco for Los Banos. which is a station
thirty miles south of Tracy on the Southern
Pacific line. From Los Banos YOU take a
team 10 Los PalOs. which is a distance of
eleven miles, and there you will find your
self in the happy hunting grounds. Sprig,
teal, mallard and English snipe are numer-
Gus. Mr.. Fred Croker bagged $50 ducks in
one days shoot on those grounds last
Thursday l expect that after the first
good storm the birds will leave this place
and go further south"
Ducks have begun to put in an appear
ance on the bay-shore marshes. Re-
ports from Shellviile, on the Sonoma
widgeon are fairly plentiful. The cold
snap of last week has had great tendency
10 improve the sport near at hand.
The Teal Shooting Club which has leased
several acres of marsh land In the vicinity
of Suisun has had very good sport this year.
The club is composed OF wealthy men, te n in
number. share in the Teal CLUB is val
ued at $1,000
And the arstocratic shooting club is the
Cordela, whose grounds adjoin the Teal
preserve The membership is limited to ten
sportsmeD, and the shares are placed at
$500. 1t is hardly necessary to say that the
members of these clubs enjoy themselves in
way that only men of means can afford.
1t is said that Mr.. Huber's English pointer
Glenbeigh, which he has recently imported,
is so thoroughly English in mis- accent" that
when he barks in the presence of American
bred dogs the latter switch their tails over
their backs as if they intended to fight.

A Remarkable Memory.

The Toledo Blade tells OF a conductor on
a Western railroad who possessed a remark

THEIR SEARCH REWARDED.
Discovery of a Chest Buried by Old
Time Indiana Robbers.


No little excitement has been occasioned
near Waynetown by some mysterious
excavations and the reported removal
Of buried treasure on the Broderich
farm, several miles from that place.
About forty years ago q band of rob-
bers AMI eounterfeiters, headed by old
Jason Spray, caused a reign OF terror in
that section. They were known to have
captured and concealed large sums of
money Finally the section arose in arms
and wiped out the whole nest except
couple of the desperadoes named Wright
and Newman. who escaped. Search was
made for their ill-gotten gains without sue
cess, and the Tobber band and its hidden
treasure eventually became only gossip and
tradition. The old Spray cabin was
haunted place for many years. but was
finally burned, and for the last quarter of a
century the very location has been lost
sight of. il being merely known that il once

COURSlNG.
Why the Open Meetings Are Not rlore
Successful.

The interstate coursing meeting at Mer-
eed was not the success the projectors of the
sport had anticipated. The hares, ground
and weather were all that could be desired
to make the sport a success. The judging
by Fahey Of Fresno was not up to the mark.
The gentleman has evidently considerable
to learn, and with practice may eventually
do. a successful judge of an open
coursing meeting must necessarily be fear
less rider, and if lie should occasionally get

A SHORT SERvICE.-The shortest re-
ligous service on record occurred in St.
Stephens Reformed Church at Potts
town, Pa, Sunday night. and consist
ed in the announcing Of one hymn.
The meeting then broke up in great
disorder. This was the outcome of the
war going on between the pastor, Rev.
c. II. Herbst, and Professor Koch, the
dethroned organist.
Since the fight began, over month
ago, no effort has been made to have
Sunday services in St. Stephens
Church. The consistory decided that
there should be preaching Sunday
night, however, and took the necessary
precaution to preserve decorum.
The consistory put on determined
air and named w. B. Fink, Edward
[mbody and Albert Will as Il commit
tee to qucll any disorder that might
arise. The committee Sunday night
before the meeting was opened, posted
itself in convenient pew and awaited
Developments.
Storm clouds then appeared. Scarce
" had organist Lamb, whom Rev.
Herbst selected as successor to the de-
posed Koch, appeared on the organ
platform with his choir, before in
marched Professor Koch and his choir.
Both gathered around the organ ready
to open up their batteries Of sacred
melodies The congregation moved
uneasily in the pews below, for all ex-
pected trouble.
Rev. c. II. Herbst, the pastor, enter
ed the door and walked down the aisle
and mounted the pulpit. His eye
kindled as he took in the situation.
There was dead silence when the pas
tor arose and firmly announced the
hymn
''Show Pity, Lord, Oh, Lord, For
give!n
Scarcely had the word forgive been
spoken by the pastor, before Professor
Koch and his choir began to sing, not
waiting for the organ, and with the
evident intention of drowning out the
voices of Organist Lamb and his choir.
1t looked as if a battle Of voices would
ensue, but here the wise forethought of
the consistory was manifested.
The committeeman in the pew below
ut once started for the organ, and lay
ing hold of Professor Koch they led
him from the platform. This move
ment created CONSERVATION. Half the
people were on their feet, and the con-
fusion so unnerved Rev. Herbst that he
hastily left the pulpit. Everybody be-
gan to talk, and the meeting was brok-
ell up then and there, and all went
home.
In the afternoon the Sunday school
was dispersed in a similar manner.

ACCORDING TO the census bulletins,
