but be has suffered so much that he could crawl only a little 

 distance. As he sees the last man disappear through the door- 

 way he sets up a mournful howling. — N. Y. Sun.

Domestic animals are turned to curious account in some 

 parts of the world. For instance in Spain a small dog is often 

 used by housekeepers for turning the spits before the fire; and 

 it is not at all to be wondered at that he doesn't take kindly 

 to such employment. To say nothing about the heat of the 

 work, it must "be a terrible temptation to the poor animal to 

 keep from touching the meat and fowls, which he would 

 much sooner eat up in a raw state than assist in roasting for 

 the consumption of others. A gentleman who traveled once 

 in Spain tells the following amusing story, in which he gives 

 the. little turnspit dog credit for a wonderful amount of sharp- 

 ness. One evening I reached a solitary little inn. Close to 

 the stove lay a dog warming itself in comfort. "What can 

 vou give for' dinner?" I asked the landlady. ''Some eggs," 

 was the reply, and the dog looked fixedly at me. "Eggs," re- 

 peated L "That's poor sustenance for a man that has come 

 thirty miles on horseback. Have you nothing better?" 

 "There's a bit of bacon." suggested the landlady ; and the dog 

 looked at me more intently than ever. "I'm not passionately 

 fond of bacon." replied *I; "what else have you?" "Santa 

 Anna," cried the landlady, "I can give you a chicken !" At 

 these words the dog jumped up and sprang through the half 

 open window. ' 'Good gracious !" said I ; why the word 'chicken' 

 was like a bombshell to him?" "Ah," smiled the hostess, "it's 

 because he turns the spit."— Chicago Litcr-Oecan. 



DEERHOUND CHALLENGE CUP.— Editor Forest and 

 Stream: A New York gentleman has expressed his intention of 

 giving a challenge cup, to cost 8850, at the shows next autumn 

 and the spring of 18S5 for the best kennel of deerhounds, sub- 

 ject to the following conditions: This cup to be competed for 

 only at shows where at least ten deerhounds (dogs and bitches) 

 are entered in the open class ; a champion (winner of three 

 first prizes at shows where a first prize has heretofore quali- 

 fied the entry of the same dog in the champion class at the 

 Westminster Kennel Club's shows), not to be eligible as an 

 entry making one of the ten requisite in the open class, but 

 eligible to compete as one of a kennel; three entries, either all 

 dogs or all bitches or dogs and bitches, to constitute a kennel; 

 cup to be the property of the kennel or individual winning 

 it three times. The cup will be on exhibition at those shows 

 where the foregoing conditions are in force.— Cloveknook

SLMON CAMERON'S DOG.— Last December a fine New- 

 foundland dog. which had been presented to Simon Cameron 

 by a friend, was stolen in Harrisburg. It has just been ascer- 

 tained that the thief sold him in York, Pa., for So, stole him 

 again, and sold him a second time. The Harrisburg Chief of 

 Police has gone to recover the dog.

 before. 



NEW JERSEY.— To-morrow afternoon, May 30, there will be an 

 opportunity at the Shooting Park, in South Orange avenue, to see a 

 competitive trial between eight or ten of the best riflemen in the 

 country. Such shots as Joiner and Brown, of the American team of 

 1883, Oehl, Will Hayes, Zettler and Dorrler. besides two or three 

 others who are equally well known, have arranged to fire each one 

 hundred times at the ring target, 200yds., to determine which is the 

 best marksmau. There will oe no prizes, but a natural pride in his 

 reputation will move each man to do his best work. No admission 

 fee will be charged. The spectators will find that the new gallery 

 will afford them a standing place where they can look down <m the 

 contest, seeing both the men and the target. The match will begin 

 about 1 o'clock and last about three hours. 



The festival of the Newark Shooting Society, on June 9, 10, 11, and 

 12, promises to be the biggest ever held. Prizes amounting to §2,000 

 are offered, and well-known shots from many Eastern cities and even 

 from points beyond the Mississippi, will compete. 



A DISPUTED TURN.— Boston, Mass., May 22, im.— Editor Forest 

 and Stream: There is a dispute about the ruling of a certain presi- 

 dent of a rifle club here, which you will please answer through the 

 meditun of the Forest and Stream. The tacts in the case are these: 

 A silver medal is being shot for every Thursday night for six months. 

 A re-entry is allowed, making two scores jper.ujan. Thehighescscore 

 of the evening wins the raedal, and the winner wears the medal until 

 the f ollowing Thursday Bight, wien the medal is again contested for, 



and so continued until the six months have expired. A certain mem- 

 ber leads off and the other shooters follow, according to the orderof 

 their names, which have been entered in a book by the secretary of 

 the club. Tne president of the club calls upon the first shooter to lead 

 again as all members have shot once around. The member objects 

 to lead again, wishing to hang back until the last, as he expresses it, 

 to see what is scored." The president ordered him to shoot in histurn 

 ..r forfeit his re-entry fee. He was not willing to shoot in histurn. 

 and demanded his re-entry fee back again. The president rules that 

 lie cannot have his money back, and that he must shoot when his 

 name is called. Please give decision, and oblige— Rudolph Schaefer. 

 fit was the duty of the marksman to shoot bis score when called to 

 the firing point. To yield to the demand of the shooter in this case 

 would create a precedent which might bring the match to a short end - 

 mg.-ED.] 



BOSTON. May 24.— There was a large attendance of riflemen on 

 the range at Walnut Hill to-day. The day proved a bad one for close 

 shooting, wind blowing most of the time down the range. J. Francis, 

 who, by the way, has another and a real name, an old member or 

 t he association, now a non-resident, was present, and as usual, was 

 shooting with an odd firearm, a ,25-calibcr rifle. With this little gun 

 he made several brilliant scores, aad in the team shoot secured fourth 

 position. The interesting event of the day was a telegraphic match 

 between teams representing the Massachusetts Association aud the 

 Springfield Armory Club. As will be seen by the records appended, 

 '•ye men of Walnut Hill" were victorious by a score of 310 against 

 their opponents' score of 314. The records in all the matches are
