RANGE AND GALLERY. 



BOSTON, Mass., July 11th.— Everybody's Match was well filled 

 to-day, as all the participants were aware that it was the final 

 shoot in this match, which has received the patronage from all 

 parts of the country- The day proved one of the best given to 

 the marksmen this season. The wind came gentle in its force and 

 easily controlled. The mirage which danced before the targets 

 was thoroughly perplexing, and made the iris o C the bull look 

 ragged, and it was hard to reach. During the later stages of the 

 shooting the wind changed several points, and when the dark 

 clouds cast their shadows upon the targets, the gentlemen looked 

 to their windage and watched close to elevations. The shooting 

 was first class, as the summary indicates, and closes a match 

 whioh will stand in the foremost rank of the many regular 

 shoots which have becomo so popular at Walnut mil. Mr. Charles 

 succeeded in scoring 49, the largest score ever made in any match 

 in the world with a military rilie. Richardson also made a good 

 49, " sporting rifle," and was followed by Mr. Jewell with the 

 same score. Subjoined are the winners' scores and prizes :—

 posed another match during the week, to take place in Cheboygan 

 and sent word over Thursday that if acceptable to the team from 

 the gun club, they would bo over Friday on the Mary to shoot 

 the return match. The time was satisfactory to the club, and 

 word was sent to Mackinac to that effect, and this afternoon, on 

 the range at the t rolling park, tho contest, look place, resulting 

 In a very exciting and close contest, but victory rested with the 

 i .lub by one point. The following is the score :—

The teams shot in the order of their names. Barney Mullen, of 

 the Cheboygan club, and Christian, of the fort team, leading oil'. 

 It will bo noticed that when three men on each side had shut it 

 stood a tie, leaving Sergeant Downey and W. S. Humphrey to de- 

 cide the match. With only two shots remaining to each side it 

 was a tie, on next to the last shot Mackinac let cne. but: Mr. 

 Humphrey's bullseye to the three for Sergeant Do wney settled it. 



The representatives of the gun club shot under a disadvantage 

 in both contests, owing to the fact that in nil their practicing they 

 had used peep sights at the breech, with globe, wind gauge sights 

 at the muzzle, nnd in the matches they were discarded, they using 

 only the plain, open sight. Then the fort team used the hip rest 

 in shooting, while the Cheboygan team shot with arm extended. 

 Under these circumstances we think the result highly creditable 

 to the representatives of the gun club.

Chicago, July 10th. - 

 Franlilin Sidway, Esq., Chairman and Delegate of the Xal.ional Ar- 

 chery Association, Buffalo, N. Y.:— 



Dear Sir: Rogrotting my inability to participate with you in 

 the good cheer and friendly emulation which shall chat acterize 

 the second assembly of the archers of the United States, in the 

 beautiful city of Buffalo, to do honor to the long bow and way- 

 ward shaft. I beg to extend herewith to your body, to the officers 

 of the Association, aud all resident and visiting archers, my hear- 

 tiest greeting and best wishes for that lull measure of interest 

 and pleasure which must always attend these national gatherings 

 of lady and gentlemen archers. The future grand meetings of 

 our Association shall indicate a steady and permanent growth in 

 interest, and harmony, until they shall become the acknowledged 

 social events of each midsummer season ; and I venture the pre- 

 diction that no future gathering of the archers of our National 

 Society will surpass in genuine enjoyment, and hearty good cheer, 

 in geniality and aristocratic sueeess the meeting which is ap- 

 pointed for the 13th, 14th and 15th insts. 



I congratulate your executive committee upon the very attrac- 

 tive programme which it has issued, and which must commend 

 itself to all archers. 



The novel feature introduced of giving a choice of prizes to 

 the successive and successful winners seems to me both admira- 

 ble and just. 



Personally I rejoice that your committee decided to abolish 

 cash prizes. In my judgment the wisdom of this poliej', if per- 

 petuated, will be felt in the years to come, in that you will always 

 secure the attendance and active cooperation of the ladies of 

 our Aireiacan society, whose presence is indispensable to the 

 success of a pastime so wholesome, exhilarating and health- giv- 

 ing as is archery- My own observation convinces me that the in- 

 troduction of money prizes would be fatal to the healthy growth, 

 elevation and perpetuity of this delightful recreation, that tho 

 ladies, generally, raise their voices in protest against such a 

 policy, and I earnestly recommend that in your deliberations, 

 provisions and instructions for tho grand annual mcotiugs Of 

 1.881 you give duo consideration to the views of our lady mem- 

 bers; in other words, should the question of money prizes come 

 before your body on the evening of the 12th inst., that you sub- 

 mit such question to a vote of tho individual membership of tho 

 Association in order that such a provision may not be incorpora- 

 ted into the constitution without a majority- concurrence of in- 

 dividual members. 



With reference to admitting individual archers to the privileges 

 of our Association, 1 should deprecate such a system as being 

 prejudicial to the basis upon whioh archery is building and 

 growing. The tendency of the custom, if adopted, would be to 

 discourage the formation of new clubs throughout the country 

 and to disintegrate oid ones in many cases. I commend this sub- 

 ject, in its many bearings, to your careful consideration. 



1 would furl her suggest the adisabih I yid soaiac udiug Article 10 

 or the constant on as thatit shall read, "the champion modal shall 

 be awarded to the individual member making the greatest, num- 

 ber of points a tho Double York Round," to be computed as 

 follows :— 



Greatest gross score, 2 points; greatest gross hits, 3 points; 

 greatest score, 100 yards, 1 point ; greatest hits, li n yards, 1 point ; 

 greatest score, 80 yards, J point ; - - •■■<:■ a hits. -.- yards, 1 point; 

 greatest score. SO yards, 1 point; greatest bus, 60 \aols. 1 point;
