€. E. SMITH
Freeport, May 21.—Word has been received of the death of Charles Edward Smith, age 62 years which occurred at his home 477 Putnam avenue, Brook¬ lyn, last Sunday. He was " the father of Mrs. William Wlnshlp of 38 Shon- ard avenue, and the Misses Christine and Dorothea Smith of Freeport.
Mr. Smith waa a glove manufacturer for many years and besides his three daughters here, thei% la another in Ocean Grove, N. J., Mrs. John Phillips, and one In Port -'V^^blngton, ,^rs. William Wales. He is also survived by his wife.
The funeral services were conducted at the home Wedneaday evening by th^ Rev. Brwin S. Dennett pastor of the Baptist Church In Freeport. and Inter¬ ment followed in Woodlawn.
Freeporl, May 21.—Some r>eopl^ have the Idea that the manly and wom¬ anly sport of trap shouting Is a pas¬ time for minionaJres only. This Is not so. Mr. Average Man Ss as welcome at tbe traps as any other.
•Tia a truth that some of tho ladies and tho fastidious gents have their shooting costumes made to order by a flrst class Hungarian tallbr on Fifth avenue and that their battery of dou¬ ble barrel, single barrel, pump, and self-loading and aiming shot guns are wonders of workmanship^ but when it comes fo shooting, the man, who was brought up within a rod of the old Bay and who haa tieen dropping sbelldrakes and black duck every year since he was nld enough to sight, has nothing to fear.
The Freeport Oun Club affords ex. cellent opportunities for the averag» man to come out and perfect his skill. And the average man is well able to stand the gaff In the matter of coats. The fifty registered bird shoot Includ¬ ing the targets and trophies costs $2.70 plus the shells used, while the entrance for targets only is $1.70 plus the tar¬ gets.
The average pinochle player will have a session at tho "Berlin Pastime' and think nothini; of dropping $6 or/ more. The average "Pasteboard .Shuffler" will tempt the various forma tions in the great American game and come away with several holes kicked In a twenty, and murmur not.
And these gentle pastimes keep the l>artlcipants In the healthy atmo.sphere of a closed room reeking with tobacco and the stale fumes of Whistle, oi some other beverage, while a day at the traps means fresh air every mo. ment, plenty of sunshine, keen enjAy- ment. and aas^K-iation wi,tli high clans sfjortsmen.
Shooting the clay birds is not a inll- lionaire's si)ort by any means, and it's a g(M»d investment for the man who intends fo go away in the fall an<l get the black duck. It will keep hi' eye and arm in good trim.
The marshes at the foot of Soutli Main street are admirably adapted to the sport and the future of fhe club is exceedingly bright, especially as some of the most prominent men in tho game have interested themselves in the club.
Long Island towns ought to be able to boast the best hunters that there are with fhe shotgun. Some of the baymen have been brought up to stallc bJack duck, get 'em up in the air by
