The Wildwood Gun Clubs first shoot
which was to have taken place at the
grounds of the yacht club on Saturday
last, was a keen disappointment to at
least two hundred sportsmen, on ac-
count of the rainy day. A bunch of
sportsmen, headed by "Chief" Bender,
went out to the traps in the pouring
rain and ~endeavored to shoot a few
clays. They managed to stand it until
the "Chief'so string reached eighteen
straight, when the rain getting strong
er all the time and the wind bio wing a
young gale drove everybody in the
yacht club. The shoot was postponed
until Saturday, April 81.
The dinner rendered by Commodore
Frank Bremen at the Wildwood
Yacht club last Sunday to members
and friends was one Of the most elabor-
ate and enjoyable events in the clubs
history. When dinner was announced
the club room was crowded to almost
its fullest capacity and ITO people were
seated as members or friends of the
club and its commodore, while the wish
tors who came and went for the pur-
pose of doing their respects, but not
staying for dinner, brought the total
attendance to near three hundred
people. 1t was gratifying testimonial
to a man said TO be one of the most
popular commodores that the New Jer-
sey coast has ever had. While Mr..
Brennan is a man of few words, he has
a knack of ingratiating himself into the
hearts of his friends and he is the very
acme of good fellowship and lIberality.
Former Judge Harrison III. Voorhees,
was POSTMASTER. Commodore Bren-
nan had the fourth table; POSTMASTER
Voorhees, took the head of the third
table. Captain Bilyeau, of Cape May,
headed the second table and Mayor
F. E. Smith, sat at the head of the first
table. The culinary department under
the direction of Mrs. Annie Hewitt was
all thai could be desired. She served
the turkey dinner in good style. Her
large staff Of assistants worked well
under her guidance and when the toast
was drunk to the commodore at the end
Of the dinner, there was not a partici-
pant who did not feel that the dinner
would be hard to equal in service, good
ness and good fello wship.
