FOREST AND STREAM. [an 4, 1885, 
BENCH SHOW ENTRIES. 
Aiitor Forest and Stream: 
I have received numerous letters inquizing as to proper con- 
struction of A, K. C. rules 8 and 9, and how to make entries 
in coming bench shows. 4 : 
All dogs. of whatever breed, that have won ‘‘first prize” in 
the open class, at the bench shows of any organization now 
recognized as a member of the American Kennel Club, should 
be entered in the champion class,and dogs having won two 
first prizes in the champion class, regardless of former compe- 
tition, should be entered in the extra champion class, 
This will properly adjust the status of past winners accord- 
ing to intention of A. K. C. ‘ . 
In future winnings dogs will be advanced strictly in accord- 
ance with rules 8 and 9, and no awards will be recognized ex- 
cept those made by members of this Association. 
ii is desired that all persons making entries will state when 
and where their entries won first prizes, in open or champion 
classes, as it will prevent confusion and fix a reeord for, or 
against, their entries. Entry blanks should set apart space 
for this purpose to call attention of all making entries,

Sine die.—RECOIL PAD. 
DOG LOST.—On Saturday, Dec. 3, my young setter dog 
was stolen from me, and I would be glad to have any brother 
sportsman who may come across him to notify me. He is an 
Ivish setter; color of body, orange or lemon, has white face 
and breast, all four feet are white, small patch of white on 
back of neck, end of tail is also tipped with white. The dog 
is six months old, answers to the name Dan and stands sixteen’ 
or seventeen inches high at the shoulders. I bought him 
through the FoREST AND STREAM and consider this the best 
inedium 0 find him again, as he has been shipped on the rail- 
road from this point to some other part of the State. Any 
one knowing of him will please address G, M. Tarr, 61 Sturges 
ayenue, Mansfield, Ohio, 
THE NEW ORLEANS DOG SHOW.—Special dispatch to

REVOLVER SHOOTING. 
Uditor Forest and Stream: 
Tam glad that “Thirty-two Short” brings up the subject, and agree 
with him, and wait and long for the proper weapon. I would want 
no heavier cartridge than the .82 shorb, but find all .22 and .32 re- 
yolvers which I had the chance to shoot, much too shortm the barrel, 
and the .38 caliber too light, EBERTS. 
BELLEVUE, Ohio, 
Editor Forest and Stream: 
The letter of ‘Thirty-two Short,’ in yourissue of Dec. 13, in regard 
to revolver target shooting, meets my views exactly. N early all 
whom I know agree in saying that accurate shooting cannot be done 
with the revolvers generally made. I have experimented some with 
pistols and find the difficulty to lie in the excessive amount of the 
powder charge in connection with the lightness of of the weapon and 
the uncomfortable handles, As to whether rim or center fire car- 
tridge is best Ihave not knowledge enough to express an opinion, but 
if the manufacturers continue to use as much powder as they have 
heretofore done I would advocate center fire, as then one could load 
to suit his individual taste. 
There are mauy men who are good shots with a gallery pistol, but 
tew of them ean do work with the revolver which is at ali satisfactory 
The reason of this is, ( think, correctly stated by ‘‘Thirty- 
two Short."’ He says that “the pistol should weigh at least 16 ounces.” 
or 5-inch barrel and a 
handle of sufficient size should, in my estimation, weizh not less thana 
to him. 
In that opinion 1 differ. <A pistol with 4 
pound anda half. This may seem heayy to those who are accus- 
tomed to carry a pistol for protection, but they rarely if ever shoot a 
pistol, and in all hkelihood this matter of weight as to revolvers for 
target use won't trouble them any. Like ‘Thirty-two Short” I should 
be pleased if any of your readers would five us their views about 
this, whether they agree in what has been said or not. 
ACHExECTADY, N. Y., Dec. 19. EVERETT? SMITH, 
Editor Forest and Stream: 
Im your issue of Dee. 18 there appears a communication from 
**,32 Short” in reference to arevolver best adapted to tarzet shooting, 
and as T have owned some forty odd revolvers, I could not withstand 
the temptation to say a word. 
I fully agree with "'.32 Short”’ that. as yet, there is no perfect re- 
yolver made, 
shape that it is liable to slip through the fingers in cocking the arm, 
and the extractor is too complicated; but for workmanship and gen- 
eral get up, as well as for acecuracy, it is perfect. Ihave taken the 
meee clean off a catbird at 32 measured feet with a .82-cal. Smith & 
esson. 
in regard to the Colt, would say that I think the rear sight, as now 
made, is a very objectionable feature, it being nothing more than a 
groove cutin the top strap oyer the cylinder, and through which it is 
difficult to catch a clear sight. 7 
I think if the Colt Company would make a rear sight similar to the 
Smith & Wesson, and make the revolver to take the same kind of am- 
munition as the .32-cal. center-fire Smith & Wesson, with a 4-inch 
barrel and extractor, it would be nearly perfect. 
In regard to the .42 short rim-fire cartridge, advocated by your 
worthy correspondent, aliow me to say that 1 most emphatically dis- 
agree with him. I think a rim-fire cartridge, of whatever caliber, isa 
delusion and a snare, and is only a shade better than loose powder 
and ball, The charge of powder ina rim-fire cartridge will often vary 
several grains, which would make a very appreciate difference in 
the shooting, to say nothing of the vexation of spirit when, asis often 
the case, they miss fire. 
They are so exceedingly bad thata shooting gallery in this city 
which has several thousand on hand will not use them, and offered 
them for sale cheap and no takers. 
Surely “.32 Short” makes a fears mistake when he asserts that 
there is no more power in a .82 long than ina short, on aceount of 
ae unburned powder, I thought that that theory had been exploded 
ong ago, 
Allow me to suggest to Mr, ‘.32 Short’ that he take a long and 
short cartridge and fire them from the same arm, and he will find 
that there is a very considerable difference in the penetration in favor 
of the longer cartridge, though may be it will be at the expense of 
accuracy; at least such has been my experience, 
Ido not see how the .32 Smith & Wesson can be improved upon 
very much, The charge of powder can hardly be called excessive, as 
it is about 8 or 10 grains, as nearly as I can remember, and they are 
very sure fire (I’ve fired over 2,000, and as yet have not had a miss 
fire); and if they had beén rim fire they would haye averaged five or 
ten miss fires to the hundred. 
No, surely we don’t want to go back but forward. Tf ‘'.82 Short’ 
will take the trouble to compare the prices of the center and rim fire 
he will find that there is comparatively little difference in the price, 
which to my mind is more than counterbalanced by the superiority 
of the center fire. 
I hope to hear from others who are better informed on the subject 
than is CENTER Fire. 
PHILADELPHIA, Dee, 22. 
WESTERN RIFLE RANGES. 
Editor Horest and Stream: 
Referring to your recent editorial in regard to covered ranges, and 
the remarks of correspondents from time to time of the difficulty in 
obtaining suitable ground for ranges in the Kast, the question natur- 
ally suggests itself; Why is there not more interest taken in long- 
range shooting here in the West, where no such trouble exists? 
Ranges can be had in almost any locality. Ido not reer to Califor- 
nia or Nevada, for in both of those States a lively interest is taken, 
and each year the interstate militia match is shot, and they are the 
only States represented in the competition for the “Pacific Coast 
Trophy.’ The result has been the bringing out of some of the best, 
if not the best_ military shots of the United States, especially at 200 
and 500yds. In Oregon they have several military companies, but 
target practice is neglected. and no shots of any note in the State, 
One club existsin Portland, Oregon, among which area few good 
shots, the average being poor. In this Territory not asinglerifie club 
exists, and I doubtif a long-range match ever took place in the Terri- 
tory (I except, of course, the rezular army practice at military posts), 
Here, where every third man is the owner Of a rifle. no effort is made 
to establish clubs and ranges. The old style of our grandfathers is 
stili in vogue, viz.: 40 to 50yds. off-hand, or 60 with a rest at some V- 
shaped mark, no rules or regulations to govern, 
Taking into consideration the interest taken all over the Hast and 
in California and Nevada in the international matches, ete., why 1s it 
not so here, where the mild climate permits of practice nearly all the 
year round, where no high winds prevail, where ranges can be had 
anywhere wilh but litile trouble? This place with a population of 
over 6,000 cannot claim a shooting club of any kind, yet nearly every 
One shoots. Seattle, with a population of over 7.000, has I believe 
one shooting club, but no rifis club. I sincerely hope that it will be 
taken up this winter, ranges established, and by next fall our local 
military companies be able to send a team to San Francisco to com- 
pete in the Pacific Coast interstate match. Oregon with four or five 
conrpanies should certainly be able to doso. Game is abundant here, 
deer, bear, elk, grouse, pheasants, ducks are in abundance, and per- 
haps herein lies the secret of the non-establishment of shooting 
clubs and ranges, Those who have a few days to spare occupy the 
time in hunting, still they should not neglect 11, especially the militia, 
who should remember that rifle practice is perhaps of more import- 
ance than drilling, Should any of your readers in this Territory 
Chance to read this I hope it may have the desired effect, The writer 
has tried repeatedly to establish a shooting or rifle club, but without 
success, Perhaps coming. through your valuable and influential 
journal more attention will be paid to the matter, x,

SARATOGA SPRINGS.—Dec. 22,—The Saratoga Rifle Club is this 
winter ina better condition, both as regards numbers and money 
matters. There are about twenty active members and total member- 
ship of about thirty-five including honorary members. We haye 
pleasant club rooms, with a range ninety feet long, also billiard and 
card rooms. Two shoots were held last week, butthe attendance was 
small, chiefly on account of the bad weather. On Wednessday the 
wind blew a gale, and the snow storm at times made the target in- 
visible. On Saturday the conditions were more favorable, and good 
Scores were made. The Massachusetts target was used, distance 
200yds., off-hand. The following are the highest scores of éach com-

BOSTON, Dee. 27._There was a very good attendance of riflemen 
at Walnut Hill to day and some good scores were made. The duy 
was a fine one for shooting, the bulls standing out prominently in the 
gray light and the wind not being troublesome, During the day one 
of the gentlemen had the misfortune to get his cleaning rod, a small, 
wooden hickory stick, about one-third of an inch in diameter and 
about thirty inches long, fouled in the barrelof his gup, Mr? J. 
Francis, and experienced shooter took the gun, and putting in a shell 
containing about fifteen grains of powder, took aim at a spruce post, 
two and a halfinches square, discharged the gun, and the rod was 
sent through the post and projected at least six inches on the other 
side, where it now remains, The best s¢ores of the day are given 
below:

CHRISTMAS SHOOTING. 
Aree CH, Mass.—The prize shoot of the Lawrence Rifle Club 
was held at the range in Riverside Grove, and was well attended, 
Two matches were open, a military match for members of the local 
militia, divided into three classes, and a Creedmoor handicap match, 
open to allcomers. The weather was clear and cold witha strong 
wind blowing across the range, and this, togetLer with the dazzling 
light caused by the snow, made high scores very difficult to obtain, A 
total of 106 entries were made in both matches. » 
The matches were shot at 200yds., five shots. In the military match 
three scores were shot to count as one, while in the Creedmoor 
match four scores were necessary. Competitors in the military match 
were divided into three classes, according to scores previously made, 
They were WON ae i allows:
