ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. 

 There is no charge for answering questions under 

 this head; we are always glad to give advice on the 

 care and management of dogs; and we shall make 

 this a special feature. 



A. G. C, Syracuse. N. Y.— I have a mastiff bitch I purchased 

 from E. H. Vait Yelder, Oneida, N. Y., named Zilda. Her dam 

 was Honto (3736), and her sire Hero is litter brother to Hugo (4040). 

 Zilda has a full brether in Ithaca that is registerf d. What shall 

 1 do to register my dogs? Axis. Write to A. P. Viedenburgh, -44 

 Broadway, New York city, giving pedigree, and inclosing one 

 dollar for registration fee. 



F. P., Saugerties, N. ¥.— 1. I desire to claim names and register 

 dog and bitch. To whom shall I applv? State cost. 3. At what 

 age does the first heat occur in a bitch? I have a pair of young 

 dops, 5 and 4 months old, running and sleeping together, and I do 

 not want them to breed for over a year yet, so want to guard 

 against any possible danger in this direction. 3. Does the registry 

 of a dog or bitch relieve the owner from taxes on same, or must 

 the decdaration be made that they are kept for breeding purposes, 

 and if they are. is this a relief from tax? Ans. A. P. Yredenburgh, 

 44 Broadway, New York city. The fee for registering is one dollar; 

 "listine," twenty-five cents. 2. Aljout 10 months. 3. No, the law 

 that allowed registered dogs in certain parts of this State, exemp- 

 tion from taxation, has been repealed. 



RANGE AND GALLERY. 



THE NEWARK SHOOT. 



Newark. N. J., July 4.— To-day closfd the very successful two 

 days' tournament of the Newark Shooting Society, held in the 

 shooting park here. On Friday the light was bad, and In the 

 afternoon the wind becamp very tiickv. Despite this tact. John 

 Coppersmith, of this city, distinguished himself by making 74 out 

 of a possible 75 in three shots ou the German ring target, a feat 

 that has been equalled upon four occasions in this country, but 

 liaB never been excelled. 



To-day the conditions were entirely different, the light being 

 tirst rate all day, but the wind being extremely ti ickv. blow'ng 

 first one way 1 hen an- tber, besides varyirg from eight all tbp 

 way up to twemv miles an hour, Dnrins the morning the bpst 

 ring ticket was 73. by Prank Ros«, of Brooklvn. About 4 o'clock

 Coppersmith's feat of thepre\'ious day a' d made a score of 74 ou 

 the ring tareet- This wa'^ the second score of 74 mnde by Mr. 

 Dorrler, and he is the only man in the country to make two such 

 scores.

 ler's were 25, 24 25. The center shot made by George Joiner on 

 the bullseye target is the first ever recorded in off-hand shooting. 



SAN FRANCISCO, June 2S.— Some time ago a competitive rifle 

 match was held between four well-known tnilitary shots in this 

 city. The defeated contesi ants were not satisfied with the out- 

 come of the contest and resolved upon another meeting. The 

 re'urn shoot was held at General Diol<inson's rifle range. atSau- 

 salito. The contestants used the Sp'tngfleld rifles, with 61b. pull 

 of trigger, and fired at the Blunt target, 200yds. distant. Major 

 G. R. Burdick acted as inspector and Ipoked after tlte interestR nf 

 all concerned. The per.sons paicipitating were General ,1. H

 beating their opponents by only 3 points In a match of 80 sljots. 



REVOLVER SHOOTING IN ENGLAND. 



London, June 23.— Practice for the Bisby meeting is still going 

 on briskly, the best scores at the disappearing target, which ap- 

 pears and disappears every three seconds, have been made by Mr. 

 Waller Winans at one of his private shooting grounds near Bag- 

 shot, Snrrpy, he mad<i two scores of 41 l"st week (equnl to the 

 "best on record" w'tb which he won at Wimbledon in 1889), some 

 half-dozen scores of 40 and about twenty scores of 30 (which latter 

 is the best score made by Mr. Haig when he won last year). 



It lookfi, therefore, that if an Englishman wants to win this 

 comppiition at Bisby this year he will have to make a "highest 

 possible" f f 43 pnintf?. 



It) practicine for the quick-firing competition Mr. Winans is 

 using a Rnub trap and a 32-gauge shot pistol of French make (by 

 Gastinne Renette), shooting at 13yd8., so as to have a small spread 

 of shot and more nearly approach shooting with a bnllet; he hit 

 .yesterday 32 out of his fir.st 25 clay discs and 19 out of his second 

 25 in which he pulled the trap himself. 



The revolver donated by Messrs. Smith& Wesf-on to the English 

 National Rifle Association is going to be a .38cal, in Russian 

 model frame. 



BOSTON. July 4.— The Massachusetts Rifle Association cele- 

 brated the Fourth by holding a shoot at their range with a good 

 attendance of riflemen. The shooting conditions were unfavor- 

 able for high scores, there being a bad 6 o'clock fi^h tail wind. 

 Tne new rpcord matches were opened for rest and off-hand shoot- 

 ins-. W. I. Gfctchell won the broi ze and silver military mpcial.

THE HOLLYWOOD CUP. 



LONG BRANCH, N. J., July 2.— About 100 sporting men and a 

 large number of other spectators attended the live-pigeoQ 

 shooting match at Hollywood Park this afternoon. The match 

 was shot ,iast south of the Hollywood Hotel. To shelter the spec- 

 tators from the wird and rain, proprietor Frederick Hoes had 

 several l^rge tents erected. He also provided refreshments. 



The match was for the Hollywood Futurity Stakes of $500 and a 

 handspme massive silver cup valued at $500, which was prfsented 

 by Frederick Hoey. There were three money prizes, $425 to the 

 tirst man, S150 to the second and £50 to the third. The entrance 

 fee was 850, and the ten entries comprized some of the leading 

 crack shots of the country, fis'e declared out. They were Edgar 

 G. Murphy, Dr. G. Lee Knapp, W. C. Floyd-Jones, Walter G. 

 Murphy, Frederick Hoey, Capt. Money, W. Brese Smith. Wm. 

 Kent, J. WiUiama and H. Yale Dolan. Mr. Dolan arrived from 

 England yesterday on the steamer City of New York, coming here 

 for the express purpose of partic pating in the shoot. The boundary 

 was untisually short, only 18yds. The wind was quitp fresh front 

 the east, though it veered around capriciously at freijuent inter- 

 vals. The birds were from Philadelphia and were a fairly good 

 lot, a number being quite sppedy. The wind at times favored the 

 short marksmen, as It drove would-be drivers into incomers. The 

 majority of the birds wf re right quarterers, and it was this sort 

 that proved fatal to the marksmen, almost every bird missed being 

 a right-quarttrer. 



The scratch men were the favorites, but early in the contest a 

 feeling prevailed that a dark horse would come in victor. Dolan, 

 who was feared most, dropped back rapidly; he bad only landed 

 from the ocean stpamer the night before and was not hear his 

 European form; his shots were generally bplow the bird, Edgar 

 Murphy ran in hard luck on the first dozen birds, having all 

 fierce right-quarterers. He hit them all, bite one dropped dead 

 a few feet outside the boundary, and he wasted Irs second barrel 

 on a bird that was si ting in front of him waiting to be shot by 

 firing rapidly and carele?=sly. Capt. Money was in rare luck for 

 the first dozen, gpfting the easiest kind of birds They ran harder 

 after that, and as pverybody was "rooiina" against him the crack 

 Englishman ran up a list of lost birds. Fred Hoey had some par- 

 ticularly hard birds. Walker Smith was out of the race early 

 and tbirreafter spent his time hunting bets. He was accommo- 

 dated on all sides, and his wagering being no better ihan his 

 shooting his losses in a very short time ran up in the hundreds. 

 Dr. Knapp made the acquaintance of some vicious drivers, but 

 did fairly well. 



Kent, W. G. Murphy and "Williams" were three long shots that 

 made things interesting for the cracks. Th" former made two 

 misses in his first 10 birds, but after that took everything that 

 came bis way, drivers, quarterers, towerprs, being all one to' him. 

 The Murphy boys and Floyd-Jones chased him right to the tape, 

 hat he made his winning shot on the most difficult bird of the 

 day. The complete score Is as follows:

E. G. Mui-phy, W. G, Murphy and .Tones bi tna tifd for second 

 and third pr'ze«. a shoot-off took place, tho Murphy brothers kill- 

 ing 3 out of 5 each, Jones only s-eoring 3. In shooting off fur 

 second money E. G.. beat W. G. Murphy by 5 to 4. The forcaer 

 luid made a feature of using his second barrel less than any man 

 in the contest, and it was trying to keep up his record that lost 

 him second money, for a bird he might have killed easily with 

 his second barrel got away when the retriever, Cartaret Gun 

 Club's Phil, started out lor him. A number of "miss and out" 

 svietpstakes werp shot after the handicap and the betting was at 

 hieh fever. Walker Smith, after his losses, seemed to have im- 

 bibed luck, for toward the close of the day all mor ey was running 

 his way and he retrieved his losses to a large ex'ent, John Hoey 

 was an efficient referee, though he had some ticklish decisions to 

 make. The handicapping was done by three of the contestants, 

 Messrs. Hoey, Smith and Knapp. and the committee's allotments 

 were adjudged fair by all interested. 



BOSTON, July 4.— The shoot of the Jamaica Plain Gun Club at 

 Clarendon Hills was largely attended and some good scores were 

 made. The contests for prizes cffered by friends of the club were 

 of especial interest and the scores were close. A ferits of matches 

 at 6 clays and (> bluf rocks for merchandise prizes was held in the 

 morning and afternoon. An all-day !:hoot was held at the Wel- 

 lington Gun Club range. It was ttiinly attended the first part of 

 the day, but at the arrival of the 3:45 P. M. train new life was en- 

 thused liy the arriviil of more shooters.

DAVENPORT-LEIBENGER. 



The second and final mHtch of the series between the above- 

 named gentlemen was shot at Woodlawn Park, Brooklyn, on 

 Thursday last. The day was cloudy and threatening rain, but 3 

 P. M., the hour for the beginning o'' the contest, saw fully 200 in- 

 terppied spectators upon the ground, amone whom were noticed 

 A! Hf ritngp, Dr. Wynn, W. Fred Qu'mbv, Hugh McLaughlin, -J. 

 E. Orr. Dr. Van Sirle. J. A. Eppig, t'has. Barret, John Schlieman. 

 Ne^f Apgar, Dick Mmsees. Wm. Rich, .1. Ayers. and D. Nolan. 



The flist contest having been shot under Long Island rules, 

 Hurlingham, according to the articles of agreement, governed the 

 secnud. 



The birds for the first half of the match were but an ordinary 

 lot, but in the second half they appeared to be of the highest 

 Order. Davenport was shooting in grand form, and, as predicted 

 before the contest began, he proved to be an easy winner. His run 

 from the 46ih to 031 bird without a mi«s was as clever an exhibi- 

 tion as has ever been seen at the trap, and if it had not been for a 

 vocal duet of "Who Killed Cock Robir ?" that was being mutil- 

 ated by two old "vets" who fondly imagined they could sing, he 

 would more than probably have killed out straight. As it was, 96 

 out of 100 is fairly clever shooting, 



Mr. L>-ibenger, although clearly outclassed, was a good loser, 

 and espresstd a wi]lingne=s to shoot another match, but insisted 

 01 the gun being held clearly to the hip. 



Match between L. T, Davenport at^d Phillip Leibpngpf, 100 birds

WALNUT HILL, July 1.— On the programme of the new shot 

 gun match opened to-day by the Massachusetts Rifle Association 

 is found a sentence which suggests modestly enough that among 

 the prizes will be found "some suitable for New Year's gifts." 

 An inspection of the prize list certainly would lead one to think 

 so, for tlie 25 prizes which appear in it aggregate $370.50 in value, 

 and include everything from a silver tea set to a cut-glass ink- 

 stand. The new match served to attract the u^ual crowd of trap- 

 shooting enthusiasts at the first competition to-day, and the pace 

 set was a warm one. Mr. Bowker proved to bo the best sfajer, 

 and to him fell the distinction of wearing home the handsome 

 medal, which at the end of the year will become the property of 

 the competitor having scored the highest aggreeaie in the entire 

 match. Bpsides the main event of the day several sweepstakes 

 were shot. Below will be found the summary of the day's work, 

 wLiich was carried out under the most favorable of weather con- 

 ditions. Gold coin and merchandise match: First competition, 

 20 Keystone targets from 5 traps, under Keystone rules; fort- 

 nightly competitions, beginning Julv 1, until Dec. 30, 1891: Bowker 

 18, Black 18, Barrett 16, Hosmer 16, Curtis 14, Snow 14, Eager 13, 

 Nichols 13, Dann 12, T. Say 13, Lee 11. Thompson 10, Nelsrn 9, 

 Smith 7. In the shoot-off of ties for the club medal Mr. Bowker 

 won. 



NEWARK, N. J., July 3.— Some fine shooting was done in fhe 

 live-bird motch between Harr> C. Kot gpl and Gus Griffen on the 

 East Side giounds to-day. Each man shot at 50 live birds for $50 

 aside under Hurlingham rules. Chris Reinbardr was referee. 

 At the finish the score stood Koegel 47, Griffen 45. Koegp] miss-^d 

 his 22 87lh and 40th birds. Griffen missed his 9tb, 18tb, 23d, 37th 

 and 29th turds. Koegel used his second barrel 15 times and Griffen 

 used his 29 times.

A MeClond river woodsman in the heart of Oregon cut 

 down a big five-foot sugar pine recently which proved to be 

 hollow for 4:oft. The McCloud Pioneer asks us to believe 

 that in that hollow tree were five black, and seven cinnamon 

 and three grizzly bears, and that the woodsman, after nailing 

 slabs over the open end of the log, sent it rolling down the 

 inountaia toward the town, where it arrived in safety with the 

 animals all alive to be eshihite^L.—SpHngfield Rcpuhlicarh
