THAT PILL LETTER.— In our issue of May 5 was pub- 

 lished a letter written by Dr. Perry, of Boston. The origi- 

 nal was sent to a young man in this city who had been for 

 several weeks developing himself into a monomaniac on the 

 subject of citrate of iron and strychnine pills. The copy 

 published by us was one. sent to Mr. W. W ade, of Pittsburgh, 

 Pa., who on his own responsibility sent it to us. It did not 

 come to us from Dr. Perry, but we. are not advised that that 

 gentleman has any fault to find with Mr. Wade for sending 

 it to us.

WHY DOES A DOG TURN AROUND ?— If "Jay Bebe"

THE REVOLVER SHOOTING TOURNAMENT at Conlin's 

 gallery, Broadway, New York, came to a close last Thursday 

 night, after a close contest lasting ten days, in which a great many 

 fine scores were made. Mr. George Bird had the honor of win- 

 ning the first prize, a handsome gold medal, winning it from Mr. 

 J. T. B. Collins in fine style, with a score of 210 out of a possible 

 216 j mints, on the Massachusetts target reduced. Mr. Collins is an 

 old-time shot, having been on the first American team and the 

 winner of a great many hotly-contested shooting matches, and is 

 a hard man to beat in a match. It looked for some time as if he 

 would win, but Mr. Bird, although a youug shooter, is a hard man 

 to walk awav with. Mr. Collins won the second prize, also a gold 

 medal, with a. score of 203 out of a possible 216. Mr. A. P. Kelly 

 won the third prize with a score of 208 out of a possible 216. This 

 is Mr. Kelly's first revolver match, and he hugged the leaders 

 very close on the last dav of the match, making two 68s and one 69 

 out'of a possible 72. Among the other revolver shooters were A. 

 Rrennan, W. C. Southwiek, J. B. Millen, Capt. T. H. Swift, F. 

 Schuchardt and many others. 



TORONTO, May 19.— Col. Gzowski, late president of the Domin- 

 ion of Canada Rifle Association was to-day presented with a fine 

 sporting rifle by the members of the Association Council. Col.Kirk- 

 patrick presented the address, which said in part: "The regret 

 we feel at the severance of our official connection is only exceeded 

 by tbe pleasant recollections we have of our past relations under 

 your guiding and successful administration. Your untiring and 

 self-denying services in the cause of rifle shooting have helped in 

 no slight degree to stimulate the militia of Canada to maintain 

 rifle associations and to perfect themselves in the use of the rifle, 

 and thereby have added to the general efKciency of the militia 

 force of the Dominion." Among ihose present were Lieut.-Col. 

 Kirkpatrick, Kingston; Col. Ouiniet, Montreal; Lieut.-Col. Mac- 

 pherson, Lieut.-Col. White, Major Tilton. of Ottawa; Lieut.-Col. 

 Mac Donald, Guelph; Lieut.-Col. Gibson, Hamilton; Lieut.-Col. 

 Tyvwhitt, Bradford; Lieut. McNaughton, Cobourg,and Lieut.-Col. 

 Otter, Toronto. 



SAN FRANCISCO. May 15.— The regular monthly shoot of the 

 San Francisco Schuetzen Verein was held to-day at Shell Mound 

 Park. The weather was not at all propitious for target shooting 

 at, long range on account of a light wind that prevailed through- 

 out the day, yet excellent scores were made. The shooting was 

 at a 25-ring target, 200yds. range. Louis Ilaake won the medal 

 for first-class shooting, having scored 409 rings. In the second 

 class Captain Ruber won a medal, being credited with 364 rings.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 14.— To-day a large delegation of sports- 

 men representing the Eureka Gun Club met at Bird's Point, Ala- 

 meda. It was the third monthly shoot of the club. On the pre- 

 vious sboot the day was very disagreeable, and the members 

 found it au unpleasant task to stand before the traps while the 

 cold, crisp breeze from the ocean ahnost necessitated the wearing 

 of overcoats. To-day was very pleasant, and the gentlemen pres- 

 ent enjoyed a splendid afternoon's sport. Mr. Bird provided an 

 exceptionally strong lot of pigeons, which darted from tbe traps 

 with such surprising alacrity that some of tbe best shots found a 

 task. The shooting was under Hurlingham rules. Following is 

 the score, Davis, Chapin and Sanborn 28vds.:
