MAGAZINE MILITARY ARMS —Gen. Sheridan, in his recent 

 annual report as Lieut:-General of the army, is emphatic on the 

 question of improved small arms and says: "'The Springfield rifle 

 still remains the weapon of our service, and it is undoubtedly a 

 very good one. In my opinion, however, the magazine arm must 

 be the arm of the future, and a glance at foreign armies shows 

 that future to be very near at hand. Every leading country 

 abroad has either adopted a magazine gun or been actively en- 

 gaged in experiments looking to the development of an effective 

 svstem. With us, progress in this direction appears to be very 

 slow, and, as far as 1 know, no very decided steps have been taken 

 during the year, nor any definite conclusions yet reached. If it is 

 not possible for us to devise at an early day a good magazine gun 

 embodying the advanced ideas now accepted abroad, it would be 

 better to adopt the best of their weapons rather than adhere 

 ionger to our singleloader, effective, even, as its Are can some- 

 Itmes be made." 



Scores for publication should be made out on the prin<*d blanks 

 prepared by the Forest and Stream, and furnished gratis to club 

 secretaries. Correspondents who favor us with club scores are par- 

 ticularly requested to ■write on one side of the pa.per only, 



CLEVELAND, O., Nov. 24.— The Cleveland Club's Thanksgiving 

 programme at Blue Rock Springs was all its most enthusiastic 

 members anticipated, except the weather. Ea.st End and Kirt- 

 land shots were on hand to dispute the prize turkeys with their 

 Cleveland brethren, and the Cleveland Club badges were con- 

 tested for by a larger number of Clevelanders than have been en- 

 tered at a regular club shoot for many months. Two shoots, both 

 turkey contests, took place in the forenoon and the regular badge 

 shoot and turke|r matches occupied the afternoon. The entrance 

 charged to the turkey shoot was fifty cents. Three sets of traps 

 were in constant operation, the badge shoot being from five traps 

 and the other shoots from three. The most successful marksmen 

 of the occasion were W. R. "Roberts" and D. Auld, the former a 

 Cleveland member and the latter an East End crack shot. Resides 

 winning the first badge' of his club handicapped at26yds., Roberts 

 struggled with four Dig turkeys when the day's sport was over. 

 All of them were first prizes except one. 



There were 16 entries to the badge shoot, which resulted in ties 

 on both badges. "Roberts" and J. White tied for the first badge, 

 each killing 16 birds, and "Roberts" won the shoot off. Heine and 

 Sherman tied for second, each making.a score of 15, and Heine 

 won the badge on the shoot off.

MONTREAL, Nov. 1 7.— Thanksgiving Day was kept by the 

 members of the Montreal Gun Club, for. besides shooting off the 

 final match for the handsome cup presented for competition by 

 Alderrnan Morris, there was an optional sweepstakes for six use- 

 ful and somewhat costly prizes. There was a large attendance 

 both of shots and of the public. The shooting during the cup 

 match was very close, as will be seen below, but, owing partly to 

 the variably wind and partly to the bad light, the birds had de- 

 cidedly the best of it. Mr. Wallace was declared the winner of 

 the. cup, his total being, together with his previous scores at the 

 other matches, 54 out of a possible 80. The cup score stood, 20 

 birds at 18yds. Referee. Mr. Leach, Dominion Cartridge. Co.:

NEWARK. Nov. 24.— The Elizabeth Gun Club started to kill 150 

 sparrows in a series of lively sweeps. The day was dark and the 

 little fellows were too nearly the color of the ground to be easily 

 seen. The Union Gun Club had an interesting shoot at artificial 

 birds on the grounds at Springfield. The attendance was large 

 and the shooting was good. The chief event of the day was the 

 fourth match, a prize shoot at 25 bats, with IS entries. The win- 

 ners and three scores were as follows: First prize, Hunt broke 21; 

 second prize, Jobs and Cadwell, 20; third prize, Morrison, 19;

DUNELLEN, N. J., Nov. 28.— The regular shoot of the Middlesex 

 Gun Club, falling on the 23d, was postponed until Thanksgiving 

 Day. The attendance was large, a great many coming to witness 

 the match between Wm. Cannon, of Newark, and Geo. Davis, of 

 Greenville, N. J„ at 50 live birds each, Hurlingham rules, §250 a 

 side, Davis giving Cannon 2yds. handicap. W. F. Quimby was the 

 referree, and Al Heritage furnished the birds for both parties. 

 Davis was the favorite in the betting, but for some unknown 

 reason seemed unable to get there. Cannon was in the best form 

 I have ever 6een him. The spectators were disgusted with the 

 easy shots missed, and many of them expressed themselves very 

 fully that they thought it a very funny shoot. Following are the

TORONTO.— A movement is on foot for establishing regular 

 shooting grounds in this city after the fashion of Hurlingham and 

 Notting Hill. The grounds are undoubtly needed, and there should 

 be more than sufficient enterprise among the members of the five 

 gun clubs in this city to warrant their establishment with a sure 

 and certain hope of success.
