entrance money and make the executive committee, responsi 

 ble for all this trouble. D. Bbtsox 



Memphis, Tcnn. 



[We had supposed Mr. Bryson to be a person of sufficient 

 intelligence to distinguish between wrong doing in the 

 abstract and wrong doing in the concrete; between the 

 offense and the. perpetrator of tlio ofTense. We apologize to 

 Mr. Bryson for having in this done bim an injustice. We 

 have already stated that Stephenson's motives in the case in 

 qnestion appear to have been "generous rather than base." 

 He prefered to have his friend's dog win rather than his own, 

 but this, like "the flowers that bloora in the spring," has 

 nothing to do with the case. The offense was committed — it 

 makes not a particle of dift'erence by whom — and it should 

 be pimished. That Stephenson should bear this pvmish- 

 ment no doubt seems hard to himself and his friends, for 

 his position was a difficult one; but, however much we may 

 love the sinner, we nmst hate the sin still more. We have 

 said before that "in a matter of this kind we have to 

 deal with re.sults, not motives. If a handler be per- 

 mitted to ]ocky from good motives, it will be hnpo.ssible to 

 prevent the same thing being done from bad one.';. ' ' We do n ot 

 consider Stephenson at all in this matter. He simply 

 represents the offense. We con.sider the judges more guilty 

 in the matter than the handler, and if it were possible 

 Avould rather see them punished than him. But if Stephen- 

 son's offense goes unpunished, Smith or Browji or Jones 

 Avill feel next year that he can do something .sijnibir, and how 

 can he be censured then if Stephenson be now pernntted to go 

 unblamed. Mr. Bryson's allusions to the comjiarative 

 merits of the two dogs htwe, as he no doubt tnows, not the 

 slightest bearing on the .'iubject in hand. His insinuations 

 against the reporters, however, deserve notice. He implies 

 that certain reporters luive received something valuable for 

 favorable mention of certain dogs. His words as written 

 will bear no other construction. We now call upon ]*;lr. D. 

 Bryson to furnish us the proofs of this charge, as.suring him 

 that we will gladly publish them. Let him give ail the facts. 

 No honorable man would make such in.sinuations except on 

 good grounds, and .surely Mi". D. Bryson is an honorable 

 man. Let us therefore have all the facts and details, that 

 we may know all about the mattex'.]

WILMINGTON, Del., Jan. 3.— The %veekly shoot of the Wilming- 

 ton Rifle Club took place at Schuetzen Park this afternoon. 

 Being the first Monday of the month, it was "badge day." The 

 club's gold badge was shot for and won by H. B. Seeds with a fine 

 score. The club has lately been adding improvements to its 

 range. The new double-sliding target, invented by W. A. Bacon, 

 has been put into use, which facilitates the shooting at least 100 

 per cent. A tight room has been built inside of the old shooting 

 house and fitted up with a stove and benches, where the riflemen 

 can keep warm between shots, ■\\'hicli transforms the discomforts 

 of winter shooting into the pleasant pastime of earlv falL As to 

 the target tender, "he ha'nt got time to get cold." The following 

 are the scores made out of a possible 100 points, Standard target,

The fli'st column of totals is the score made on the German ring 

 target, with 2.50 possible on each string of ten shots. The second 

 column of totals at the extreme right is the corresponding score 

 on the American lar;iet. The ninth string, giving 332 on the Ger- 

 man img tai'get and 96 on the American target, is remarkable. 

 Each one of those ten bullets went inside of a cin. circle. The 

 whole score is the best ou record with such a litdit rifle. Mr. Bird 

 will probably visit Burlington during the coming summer, and a 

 shoot %vill be arranged while he is here.

VIRGINIA CITY, Dec. 20.— The friendly match arranged be- 

 tween the Nevada Rifle Association, of this city, and the National 

 Club, of San I'rancisco, took place to-day. Each team shot over 

 its own range, 10 shots apiece at the 200 and 500yds. targets, and 

 the result was announced by telegraph. The Nevada team made 

 a total score of 881 points and the Nationals 883, beating their 

 opponents one point. The highest individual score made by the 

 Nevada team was 94 points, while 93 was the highest scored by the 

 Nationals. At the 200yd8. target the Nevada team broke all former 

 records with a total score of 447 points, the highest ever made in a 

 shooting contest between opposing teams. The early part of the 

 day was unusually favorable for shooting at the Nevada range, 

 the first four members of the team not scoring under 90 points. 

 Before the match was half over, however, a gale began blowing 

 from the south, which explains the falling off in the scores made 

 by Spargo, Curnow and Wratten, all three of whom are consid- 

 ered good for 90 points under favorable elemental auspices. Be- 

 low are the scores made by the Nevada team:
