METEOR AND BEAUFORT, —Editor Forest and Stream: 
T opine that no event in canine circles would be watched with 
deeper interest than a competitive field trial of the two 
yee dogs, Mr. C, H, Mason’s Beaufort and Mr. John W. 
unson’s Meteor. Every unprejudiced person who has seen 
the two animals together has a very decided conviction as to 
which one of the two is the better dog, so far as type and form 
are concerned; and it is also well known that both are good 
performers in the field. Mr. Munson says that Meteoris a 
crack, and Mr, Nixon, Beaufort’s breeder. says that Mr. 
Mason’s dog is a capital one on the birds. Now bring them 
together, ‘The only objection is that in the event of such a 
trial the friends of the defeated dog would claim (with much 
good sense, too) that it had decided nothing after all, for you 
know and I know that a field trial is not always any true test 
of one dog’s excellence compared with that of others. But, 
then, how we all would like to see a Meteor-Beaufort match, 
owners to handle.—Mpat-Hawk. 
A FOX-TERRIER, CLUB.—Aditor Forest and Stream: At 
the last Westminster Kennel Club’s show tibere was some talk 
of forming a fox-terrier elub among the exhibitors of that 
fancy then present in this city. The subject was not taken 
up and fell through. As an exhibitor of fox-terriers I wish 
now to make an appeal to all kindred specialists asking their 
support in arranging a meeting in tiis city during the coming 
non-sporting dog show, to bring about the organization of a 
fox-terrier club, and the adoption of a standard for breeders 
to follow. Any communications from parties wishing to join 
such a moyement will be cordially welcome to THRE CLOVER- 
NOOK KENNEL (185 Fifth avenue, New York). 
GROUSE DALE.—Mr. Pierre Lorillard has purchased the 
well-known setter dog Grouse Dale, We congratulate Mr. 
Lorillard upon the acquisition of one of the besé field dogs in 
this country. We have had the pleasure of shooting over 
Grouse Dale both on the stubble and in the thicket, and have 
no hesitation in pronouncing him to be one of the finest dogs 
for all-round work that we haye ever seen. He is just the dog 
for a sportsman to own, and we envy his owner the pledsure 
in store for him among the birds in his well-stocked preserves. 
STAFFORD DOG SHOW,—The Stafford Agricultural 
Society of Stafford, Conn., will hold a bench show of dogs m 
connection with their fifteenth annual fair to be held at 
Stafford Oct. 8.9, and 10. We are pleased to see this well 
Known society adopt this course and hope that the venture 
will prove so successful that it will become an annual fixture. 
There ave many good dogs in the vicinity of Stafford, and we 
have no doubt that their owners will heartily second the 
efforts of the society by a large entry. 
THE EXHIBITORS’ CONVENTION.—The meeting of ex- 
hibitors at the Colonnade Hotel, Philadelphia, on the evening 
of Sept. 16, for the purpose of forming a Kennel Club, was 
attended by about twenty-five gentlemen. Mr, Wm, Wade, 
of Pittsburgh. was elected chairman of the meeting, After 
considerable discussion as to the objec) and aim of such an 
association, the meeting finally adjourned without takiag 
action upon the question, 
DOG STRAYED OR STOLEN.—A large lemon and white 
English setter dog, head and ears lemon, and even lemon 
marks on body, has strayed or been stolen. When last seen 
he had on a plain leather collar with a small bell attached. A 
liberal reward will be paid for information leading to his re- 
covery, by his owner, Mr, Thos, H. Stryker, Rome, N. Y. 
HOW THEY DO IT IN MEX1ICO.—The Correo de las Doce, 
of the City of Mexico, reports in its English columns that 
“The City Council has appropriated 100 dollars, with which to 
pounds poison to be administered to unmuzzled dogs,”

HARTFORD, Conn,, Sept. 9.—The delegates of the Connecticut 
Schuetzen-Bund had a well-attended and spirited meeting here yes- 
terday afternoon and evening, at the headquarters of the Hartford 
Schuetzen Verein. The adoption of a like uniform for all the socie- 
ties belonging to the Bund was discussed, but is not likely to ever re- 
ceive sufficient favor, as the man at the butt, not the coat on his 
back, decides the superiority in marksmanship. It was determined 
to give New Britain the privilege of conferring next year's State 
prize shoot, to which it is entitled by usage, to the newly admitted 
Springfield Rifle Club. Therefore this grand shoot will most probably 
be held in Springfield, Mass. This new club has a membership of 
some 135 young riflemen, and is vigorously managed, The annual 
prize shoot of the Hartford Schuetzen Verein, oper fo all, takes place 
on the 22d of September. There will bea prize target with $130 in 
prizes, a sirving of 3 shots for $1; a ring target, and a bullseye target. 
Our little range is a fine one, and can be easily reached by street car, 
—Max H. Prmer, Seeretary Hartford Schuetzen Verien. 
LEAVENWORTH, Kansas, Sept. 10.—The following shows the total 
of the best two days of the division of the Missouri rifle team as 
selected at the conclusion of the shooting yesterday. The figures

possible 210, Lieut. Clay, taking his poor day, also has a total of 271 
out of a possible 315—the best on record. The scores of team mem- 
bers, with the departments to which they belong, are im the order

the first three members of the division team, and silver medals to the 
other nine of the diyision. The two alternates received no medals. 
The army contest takes place about Oct, 5. 
A RICOCHETTED BULLET.—Lieut Schuyler, of the Sixth Regi- 
ment of the Pennsylvania Militia, recently succeeded in performing 
the singular feat of shooting a man who was standing on the opposite 
side of a stone wall 16ft. high and half a yard thick. He was firing 
at the 500yd. range. After the report from his rifle Sergt. Decker, 
the marker. proceeded to swing the signal and was about to slip out 
from behind the wall when he became conscious that he had been 
shot. The bullet had missed the wall and gone to the left of it, 
struck a tree and ricochetted, and in its course struck the marker in 
the right shoulder. The wounded man was at once taken to a doctor, 
who cut the ball out It had fractured the shoulder blade, but the 
Sergeant is now out of danger. 
GARDNER, Mass., Sept. 17.—A few members of the Gardner Rifle 
Club went out to Hackmatack Range to day. The shooting was off- 
hand, distance 200yds. The new American eecimal target was used. 
Out of a possible 100 the totals were as follows: G. 'T. Ellsworth 8&3, 
G. Fordyse 87, W. C. Loveland 76,5. Hildreth 76, G. C. Goodale 76, 
William Austin 74, H. George 72. 
THE TRAP. 
Correspondents who favor us with club scores are particularly re 
quested to write on one side of the paper only. 
NEW JERSEY STATE CONVENTION. 
of Cece New Jersey Strate Association held a convention at the rooms 
of the Jersey ae Heights Gun Club, on Sept, 16. which was 
called to order at 3 P. M. by President Benj. T. Payne. Upon calling 
the roll nine clubs were found tu be represented by delegates. ‘Two 
new clubs were elected members, the Southside Club, of Newark, N. 
J.,and the Westwood Gun Club, of Westwood N.J. Considerable 
discussion was had whether in future any State shoots should be held 
at ply. piveens instead of live binds, as was inaugurated by the Pali- 
sade and Jersey City Heights clubs this year. No positive action was 
taken and the management rests as before, solely with such clubs 
under whose auspices such State tournaments will be held. 
The management of the next tournament was given to the Essex 
Gun Club, of Newark, N. J. Dr. N. Pindell, of the Essex Club, was 
elected Rpeaenie Wm, Hughes, Jersey City Heights Club, vice-presi- 
dent; Wm, Hayes, of the Essex Club, recording secretary; J. F. 
Kinzey, of the same club, corresponding secretary, and W. J. Con- 
over, of the Medway Club, treasurer, 
The tournament was held on the Jersey City Heights Gun Club 
grounds, at Marion (Jersey City), N. J,, and lasted throughout three 
days, Sept. 17,18 and19. The Statefair at Waverly, N.J., and the 
Philadelphia dog show somewhat interfered with the attendance at 
the shoot, which, however, was a success otherwise. New traps were 
used forthe clay-pigeon shoots, and the shooting was hard and diffi- 
cult. The live-bird shooting was from plunge traps, and there is no 
doubt that this tournament has proved another nail for the coffin of 
this practice, as the Pssex Club will use ground traps next year if 
tame birds are fo be used, The following are the scores;

THE MASSACHUSETTS MEDAL offered the Massachuseits Rifle 
Association for team shooting at clay-pigeons is described as an ele- 
gant specimen of artistic taste, skill and workmanship. It is of gold 
in various colors, and its design is suggestive and emblematic. The 
in bar, from which the medal is suspended by strong swivelled 
Vase is paralleled at the ends and curyed upward in the center. 
From its under side, within the arc, is a clay-pigeon wrought in gold. 
The body of the medal has around its outer edge a flat rim of natural- 
colored gold. Across its upper side, beneath the pigeon, is a parallel 
var supported at each end by ornamental scroll braces attached to 
the upper edge. Within the outside rim is a circular panel of cop- 
per-alloyed gold representing a shooting ground. Atits lower edge 
an ornamental shield. On the pin bar,in raised gold block letters, 
the words, “New England.’ and on the copper-alluyed band is the 
inscription, in black enamel, ‘‘Three-man champion team.” On the 
lower half of the rim is an ivy wreath wrought in natural color. On 
the fleld within the circle is engraved the representative of a sports- 
man in due position, facing the trap. gun in hand, about to eall 
“Pull. Engraved on the shield beneath, the date, 1884. The indi- 
vidual medals are smaller and less elaborate, but of equal good taste 
and workmanship.
