BULLDOG CLUB SPECIALS. 



Editor Forest and Strewn: 



Below I give a list .of specials, solid silver cups and medals, 

 that the Bulldog CltiD of America, offer for competition, to 

 members of the club only, at our first annual show, to be 

 held in connection with that of the Westminster Kennel 

 Club at New York, Feb. 24 to 27. Our charter membership 

 list has been extended to Feb. 9 (day of closing of entries for 

 New York show). Until that date $10 entitles to active 

 membership, but afterward there will be a -515 initiation fee 

 in addition to the 810 dues. 



We want to make a big showing at this, our first annual, 

 and trust that all those interested in this hitherto much 

 neglected breed will take advantage of this charter member- 

 ship extension and join with us before Feb. 9, and that each 

 and every one owning one or more bulldogs will see that 

 they are entered and shown at the New York show. There 

 is no earthly reason why bulldogs should not have an entry 

 of at least 50. Did ever an American specialty club offer 

 such inducements as thefollowing? 1. The Parke cup, value 

 $250. for tbe best bulldog or bitch in tbe show; presented by 

 Mr. T. L. Parke. 2. The Porter cup, value §100, for the best 

 in show, opposite. in sex to the one winning the Parke cup; 

 presented by Mr. E. Sheffield Porter. 3. The Matthews cup, 

 value $100, for the best American-bred junior (dog or bitch, 

 between 6 and 15 months): presented by Mr. JohnH. Mat- 

 thews. 4. The Sawyer cup, value §100, for the best novice 

 (dog or bitch who has never won a prize previous to this 

 show); presented by Mr. R. B. Sawyer. 5. The Bulldog 

 Club's silver medal for the best American-bred dog. 6. The 

 Bulldog Club's silver medal for the best American-bred 

 bitch. 7. The Bulldog Club's silver medal for best dog or 

 bitch in open class. 8. The Bulldog Club's silver medal for 

 best puppy (under 12 months), 9. The Bulldog Club's silver 

 medal, for best stud dog, shown with two or more of his pro- 

 geny. (These two or more of his progeny must be entered 

 in their proper classes, but they need not be the property of 

 one exhibitor. The merit of the stud dog himself, as ah ex- 

 hibit, will not be taken into consideration by the judge, but 

 the prize will be awarded on the merits of the dog's progeny.) 

 10. The Bulldog Club's silver medal for brood bitch, shown 

 with two or more of her progeny. (These two or more of her 

 progeny must be entered in their proper classes, but they 

 need not be the property of one exhibitor. The merit of the 

 brood bitch herself, as an exhibit, will not be taken into 

 consideration by the judge, but the prize will be awarded on 

 the merits of "the bitch's progeny.) (Entries for 9 and 10 

 must be made with the B. D. C.'s secretary, Chas. D. Cugle, 

 prior to Feb. 12, 1891). 11. The Bulldog Ciub's silver medal

RANGE AND GALLERY. 



NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION. 



THE annual meeting of the National Rifle Association was held 

 Jan. 13 at the Seventh Regiment Armory, Sixty-seventh street 

 and Park avenue. Gen. G. W. Wingate presided, and Capt. John 

 S. Shepherd was secretary. The Secretary's and Treasurer's reports 

 were read and approved, and ordered to be placed on file. On 

 motion of Capt. John S. Shepherd it was proposed to change the | 

 date of the annual fall meeting from the second week of the 

 month of September to the first week of the same mouth, as at 

 nearly every one of the past meetings that has been held in the 

 | second week most unfavorable weather for shooting has prevailed. 

 The motion was carried. 



The board of directors, on a motion of Gen. Woodward, decided 

 to abolish the SOcah allowance on the Remington rifle as ur- 

 ' necessary,: i 



The following were then elected officers for the ensuing year: 

 Pres., Gen. G. W. Wingate; Vice-Pres., Gen. John B. Woodward; 

 Sec'y, Capt. John S. Shepherd; Treas., Capt. Leslie C. Bruce. Gen. 

 Charles F, Bobbins and Mr. James Duane were elected as an Ex- 

 ecutive Committee. 



The nominations for directors to serve for three years were: 

 H. C. Brown, James Duane, George Shorkley, J. S. Shepherd and 

 L. C. Bruce. To serve for two years: C. W. Duffv, Richard 

 Oliver, George W. Rand and Walter G. Schuyler. 



The Secretary's report was as follows: 



New York. Jan. 13, 1891— Mr. President and Life Members of the 

 National Rifle Association: The following report of the transac- 

 tions of the Association for the past year is submitted by your 

 secretary. 



The annual meeting was called in January, but no business was 

 transacted owing i o the want of a quorum. At the regular meet- 

 ing of the board of directors hold the following month, Gen. Geo. 

 W. Wingate was elected President; Capt. Leslie C. Bruce, Treas- 

 urer, and the Vice-President, Gen. John B. Wood ward, and the 

 Secretary were re-elected. 



The range at Creedmoor was deeded to the State of New York 

 and the charge of the same was assumed by the proper authori- 

 ties on May 1, but as yet no work has been done toward making 

 the repairs and improvements that are so much needed. The an- 

 nual fall meeting was opened on Sept. 9, and in many respects it 

 was a satisfactory one; particularly pleasing was the fact that 

 not. a protest was entered. The team representing the State of 

 New York won the Inter-State match, nnd the Hilton trophy was 

 carried off by the representatives of the District of Columbia, its 

 team being the first one e^er sent from that section. A strong 

 team was sent by the State of New Jersey, and we have been in- 

 formed that these two teams will enter again at the next meeting. 

 The loss on the meeting was about S250. but that may be attrib- 

 uted entirely to the bad weather that prevailed during the last 

 two days, and I would suggest that an earlier date bo selected for 

 future meetings, and also that hereafter no allowance should be 

 given to the .50eal. Remington rifle, as it has been proven that it 

 is not required, and also because for years this has created a feel- 

 ing of discontent, among the visiting riflemen of oilier States. The 

 Qualificat'on, Marksman's Badge, and Sharpshooters' matches 

 have been well patronized by members of the. National Guard. The 

 expense of conducting them has been increased, owing to the new 

 system of qualification adopted by the State requiring a greater 

 number of matches during the season. Undoubtedly a more lib- 

 eral policy on the part of the State in supplying transportation 

 and ammunition for the troops would increase tbe attendance at 

 the range and at the same time benefit the Guard by rendering 

 efficient men who perhaps knew little, or nothing of the use of the 

 weapon with which they are armed. I have to acknowledge the 

 receipt, of valuable prizes from Messrs. Tiffany & Co., Messrs. 

 Benedict Bros.. Mr. J. H. Steward of London, and the staff of the 

 first and second brigades, also of the following named papers: the 

 American Field, the Army and Navy Journal, the Fobest and 

 Stream, the Spirit oj Ho Vimes iho " ' and Fishing, Turf, Field 

 and Farm, ana the Volunteer Service Gazette. 



The treasurer's report shows a balance on hand Jan. 1 of 

 $1,078.40, with no oufstandi ng debts, and. we have in addi I ion a, just 

 claim for g I . . n-1 the military fund of the. State for the use 

 of the range, to May 1 and for money expended by the Association 

 for labor and supplies prior to that date.

BOSTON, Jan. 10.— The Massachusetts Rifle Association held its 

 regular shoot to-day. A perfect winter day favored them with 

 fine conditions, and high scores in all the. matches was the result,

A REMINGTON PICTURE AT CONLIN'S.-Mr. G. C. WrighL 

 the artist, has just completed a copy of one of Frederic Reming- 

 ton's most famous paintings. Mr. Remington is one. of the fore- 

 most painters of frontier life, and in view of the present promi- 

 nence given to Indian affairs, the picture referred to is of special 

 interest. It represents a group of four men, one dead, the others 

 wounded and in desperate straits. Standing on a mound, thoy 

 have a rude barricade of their dead horses, and the Indians in 

 the distadce are circled about them, probably making ready for 

 another charge. It is on exhibition at Conlin's shooting gallery, 

 northwest corner of Broadway and Thirty-first street, and can be 

 seen daily between the hours of 10 A. M. and 12 P. M. In add ition to 

 this there are many objects of interest to the sportsman, includ- 

 ing the best collection of records of shooting in America. A go- 

 as-you-please rifle match will commence Jan. 12 and end Jan. 28, 

 for elegant gold medal.— James S. Conlin. 



NEW YORK RIFLE CLUB. Jan. 9— The New York Rifle Club 

 held a handicap club contest at their headquarters, 12 St. Mark's 

 Place, this evening, fifty-eight entries beiug received altogether. 

 Some very good scores were ptxt up, and the results attained show 

 that the handicaps, as allotted by the executive committee and 

 based on last year's averages, will need but little correction for 

 some time to come. The best score for each man, including his 

 handicap, was as follows: T. J. Dolan, scratch, 242; T. J. Lloyd, 5 

 points, 241; J. Duane, 7 points, 339; Dr. E. R. Ohadbourn, " noint", 

 338; \ . B. Daly, 7 points. 337; M. Herrington. 1 point, 230; C. E. 

 Genscb, 2 points, 236; C.C.King, 5 point", 234; Dr. Can troll, 12 

 points, 234; J. W. Danuefelser, 13 points. 230; E. B. Barker, 5 points, 

 237. The conditions were, any 22cal. rifls, 10 shots, off-hand, regu- 

 lar German ring target, 250 points- The off-hand match outdoors 

 should have begun on Jan. 1 at Wissei's Cypress Hill Park, but 

 tbe fog made shooting an impossibility. Twenty competitions will 

 take place under the following conditions: Ten shots off-hand on 

 a standard American target, reentries allowed, distance 200yds. 

 The prizes wil I be. bronze, silver and gold medals, to be won on ten 

 scores of 75 or better, and of 85 or better, respeetivelv. An ex.tr* 

 prize will be awarded to the marksman making the highest score 

 during the season. 



ZETTLER EXPERTS.— Some excellent shooting was done on 

 the range of the Zettler Rifle Club, 331 Bowery, on Tuesday even- 

 ing, Jan. 5, by six of the club's members, in the regular medal 

 and prize competition. Bach man shot his full allowance of five 

 targets, or 50 shots, and at the end of the contes t if was discovered, 

 that not one of the 300 shots fired had hit outside of the Sin. bulls- 

 eye, a performance which has never been equalled, either in the 

 gallery or on the long range. The scores of the six marksmen 

 were as follows:
