NEW YORK ST ATE ASSOCIATION FORTHEPRO- 

 TECTION OF FISH AND CAME. 



Niagara Falls, June 15. 



THE Niagara Falls Club have made admirable arrangements for 

 the convenience of shooters ami reporters, A comfortable stand, 

 affording shelter from the sun was provided for the contestants, 

 iwule the press were loeated to the ritrht, under a canopy with the 

 ' dges and referee, which greatly facilitated the! 



official s 



efforts in making a' pi 

 the badges which ffi

•eport of proceedings. Another feature is 

 Lembera of diiferent committees wear promi- 

 vuntiug the prize committee] bird committee, 

 buw., uuuiu uisiinguisn ibem at a glance. 



A large delegation from Brooklyn was on baud, the majority stop- 

 ping at the International Hotel, where everything -was done thai could 

 be. lor their pleasure during (heir stay. 



The tents of the following clubs are .arranged in a semicircle just 

 baci of the shoot. -iV stind: the (,)ue:.-n City. Forester and Audubon 

 Clubs of Buffalo, the Niagara Fails Shooting Club, the Dean Rich- 

 mond Club of Batavia, the Long Island Sportsmen's Association, the 

 Monroe County Club of Rochester, the. Phoenix Gun Club of Seneca 

 Falls, the Onondaga Club of Syracuse and the East Buffalo Shooting 

 Club. These, with their hags and streamers flying, lend an attrac- 

 tive appearance t o the grounds. The, Niagara Club on Tuesday had a 

 tine spread, free to all, which was liberally oatronized. The first day, 

 Tuesday, was a splendid one for shooting. The wind was favorable 

 and weather warm and clear. The birds were very strong flyers, 

 many of them getting away, even with a large amount of shot. A 

 novel feature was the introduction of Indian trappers, sixteen young 

 Tusearpra braves being employed for that purpose. They looked 

 rather picturesque attired in red shirts; blue trousers and checked 

 caps, and seemed to thoroughly enjoy their work. 



The first contest, was called at half past nine, the shooters not being 

 on hand promptly, the day's programme could not be gone through. 



WEDNESDAY EVENtNO. 



An adjourned meeting of the association was held at the Niagara 

 Falls Club rooms, Wednesday evening. President S. J. Murray said 

 he was instructed by the Niagara Club to say that they would ac- 

 cept the next .convention with the understanding that 'the various 

 clubs should comply with the proposition to assist in procuring a 

 proper list of prizes. 



Mr. Murray then appointed the following gentlemen as the com- 

 mittee to try and secure a suitable game law! Abel Crook. Brooklyn. 

 Chairman; R. F. Hill, New York; F. S. Massey, Brooklyn: M.*A. 

 Stearns, Dausville, and J. N. Babcock, Syracuse. U any member of 

 the committee should be unable to attend when necessary, he will 

 have the power of substituting another gentleman. 



The committee to procure a suitable State charter is as follows: 

 Abel Crook. Brooklyn, Chairman; N. B. Cooke, Brooklyn: Henry R. 

 .lones. Buffalo. 



nd 000, J. M. "Winner, 



to 



mittee: Henry Aitenbrand, Washington Gun Club. 



nan; W. J. Babcock. Seth Green, Rochester; Hon! 



•elt. New York: Jonathan Sidway, Buffalo. Mr. M. 



ed that the secretary of the association be instructed 

 _ ith the various clubs, at the proper time, and ascer- 

 tain what prizes they may have to contribute at the next convention, 

 so that it might not be left to chance, and that the clubs should not 

 forget it. Carried. Mr. R. F. Jones moved that at the next conven- 

 tion the State Association donate S200 as a prize to be. contested for 

 in the first shoot, and that the association reserve to itself 25 per 

 cent, of the entrance money in said contest. 



Mr. R. F. Hill offered a 8200 cash prize- for the next convention. 

 Accepted with thanks. Mr. Henjy Aitenbrand offered a prize to be 

 shot for only by members of the association of twenty-five years' 

 standi tg. This was accepted heartily, but it being found that* there 

 would be no one to shoot under such conditions, it was left to Mr. Ai- 

 tenbrand to name the regulations. Mr. McLaughlin proposed the fol- 

 lowing amendment to Rule 2 of the shooting rules: "That the gun 

 shall be. held at the top part of the hip while at the score, instead of 

 merely 'below the elbow,' " ns the rule now reads. This was referred 

 to tue standing com m ittee, and will take its regular course. It was 

 voted that all clubs which are in arrears to the association for more 

 than one year's dues should be notified by the secretary if such dues 

 were Dot paid before the first day of January, 1883, they shall be 

 dropped from the roll. 



Mr. Crook said that he hoped every elub would send suggestions to 

 that committee, also any laws which were in their possession; these 

 he would have carefully examined, and try to have a comprehensive 

 game law' framed, and a printed copy mailed to each club for their 

 approval and comments before the first of September. 1882. The 

 meeting then adjourned

 the Excelsior Sporting Club of Phelps won the f jurth prize, two 

 large photographic views of the Falls. 



A large proportion of the apparently poor shooting maybe ac- 

 counted for by the fact that the birds were unusually strong, and 

 many of them dropped dead just out Of bounds.
