 for the eleven men. If they keep up this shooting streak it ought 

 to bring them well up in the tournament.

As can be seen the weekly shooting night has been changed 

 from Tuesdays to Thursdays. A social session followed, during 

 which speeches were made by Capt. Reinhardt, Adolpb Mai/, and 

 Secretary Finger. Songs were rendered by Adolpb Malz and 

 Adolphu's Rossv. H. Rosenthal recited a non-touching piece of 

 ;> n-u . v "Motlier's Bill v Goat." To say that he made a hit would 

 be putting it mild. The assemblage broke up late. 



NOTES. 



Secretary Bird in what bis fellow members of the Hudson Rifle 

 Club call a " cold water man." He has fine oratorical powers, and 

 before he gets through his bearers are nearly driven to temper- 

 ance. W. Boddy is ore of his converts. Recently while return- 

 ing from Newark after shooting a tournament match, tiiey were 

 nearly desperate for a drink of some sort. Adolph Malz, he with 

 the entrancing story regarding w Kase," was in favor of beading 

 a committee to notify the conductor to stop the train. The idea 

 was sat upon however and was invited to jump off. Secretary 

 Bird now reviewed the situation and decided that this was an 

 elegant chance to exhort bis bears i»S to become followers in the 

 cause of temperance. He was at last prevailed upon to give up a 

 bottle of what he thought, was ginger ale which he carried with 

 him, to slake the thim of the thirsty crowd- He was surprised 

 at the way Capt. H. rlensen downed the ginger ale, be seeming to 

 be delighted with it. Buddy, Braun, Malz and Rebhan followed 

 suit. At last it came to the club's temperance orator, all the lat- 

 ter needed was one swallow, when he. discovered that he bad 

 brought forth the wrong bottle. He had given the bortle contain- 

 ing old rye to his club mates by mistake. There will be ro more 

 temperance leclures hereafter. 



Greenville Rifle Club at its last meeting presented the follow- 

 ing gentlemen with the customary class medals, as They had won 

 the prizes the most times in their respective classes ; First class, 

 W. Robidous, with an average of 237 ; second class, C. Scheelein, 

 who averaged 229 : third class, F. Collier, with an average of 218. 

 and fourth class J. Hill, who averaged 214 It was decided to 

 have two medals in every class, to go to the men making i he high- 

 est and Second highest scores in the respective classes. The win- 

 ners at the last, shoot were : First class, C. Boag, 236 ; W. Rnbi- 

 dous, 235; second class, J. Cbavant, 242; Gottbardt, 234; third 

 class, J. Purkess, 238 ; J. Hill. 227. 



" Jerry " Steuber and Capt. Jefsen of the Jefsen Rifle Clnb are- 

 capital entertainers. At this sort of thing they can't be beat. 



It is said that arrangements have been made for a 50-shot 

 match between Frank Kammel and Fred Dunsteadt, both of the 

 Millers, and that the winner will be challenged by H. Fred Meyer. 

 The latter knows he'll have to shoot to win in case the match is 

 made. A match between the trio of rifle shots would determine 

 who the superior is among them, as they all claim ike champion- 

 ship of the fourth class. 



The Friday Night Club, of Hoboken, did not enter, as they say 

 they are ouly a social and not a rifle club, and their members 

 would not care to travel around, auyway. This will no doubt 

 cause surprise, as the club could produce a fine five-men team. 



The Herman Rifle Club. Capt. Herman Newmann, of J. C. 

 Heights, are flsing up their range in fine style. But, of its being 

 rather out of the way, they would have double the membership 

 they now possess. 



The Palisade Rifle Club is .jubilant over having reached the 



I, 100 murk in the Forest and Stream tournament shoot, they mak- 

 ing 1,103 against the Esses Amateurs, last Monday evening. But 

 for Finger they would have reached considerable over it, he mak- 

 ing 193. His shots with one esception were all. low, the gun is 

 sighted wrong for him. But it seems that he should have held it 

 higher when he had these 18 "lows" bunched. The nest time this 

 happens Gus, you'll go home a'one. 



A surprise in the above match was the shooting of Rosenthal of 

 the Palisades he making 230. His highest previous score being 215. 



The newlv organized Schuetzeu Club "Hansa" of Hoboken 

 are now cutting up fine scores. T'a* members are under the care- 

 ful tuition of L. Schmidt and L. Wangersheim. 



Shad Russell of the Standard Rifle Club is, to use the words of 

 Capt. Henry L. Hansen of the Hudsous, a cuckoo. Anvthing 

 from singing a song to darning the hornpipe is in Shad's line. 

 His specialty is a song and dance entitled " Does she expect me 

 to-night?" He does this with much fervor, as the song is so 

 touching and original. 



The Union Rifle Club of Hoboken has disbanded. Its head- 

 quarters were at 2)3 First street. There is gome effort now being 

 ma<le to rejuvenate the Standards, who withdrew from the 

 Forest and Stream tournament without shooting a single 

 match. 



Charlie Judsou, of the Miller Rifle, CT'ib, is trying bard to win 

 the I otiEsr and Stream average medal. His two best scores now 

 arc 241 and 242. Godfrey Snellen, of the, Esses Amateurs, how-

The battle for the weekly class medal still rages at the weekly 

 shoots of the Miller Rifle Club, Hoboken, every Wednesday even- 

 ing. Dave Miller leads in the first with five wins, Tom Fitzsim- 

 mous two, and Charlie Judson, Louis Vogel, George Schlicht and 

 Louis Sobl about one or two each. In the second .1. H. Kruse has 

 won it ten times, J. Carragher three and G. C. Variek one. In the 

 third H. Seltenreich has passe I A. Stadler for the lead, be having 

 won it seven times, Stadler sis and H. Katenkampone. The win- 

 ner of the medals wheu the twenty-six weeks are ended will be 

 promoted a class ahead; this rule, however, pertains only to the 

 winners of the second and third class medals. 



The tournament shoot is attracting unusual attention to 

 rifl> shooting this winter. It hns virtual Ly put an end for a while 

 to the weekly shoots of the HpdSbn Rifle Club, as about, all these 

 matches are scheduled for Montlav, the night they hold their 

 weekly shoots. Jay H. Kay. 



Godfrey Snellen's Fine Work. 



On Friday evening, January 15, Godf rey Snellen of the Essex 

 Amateur Rifle Club and Gustav Widmanofthe Our Own Club, 

 shot a 100-shot, match on the Esses Ranges, corner Bank and Rut- 

 ger streets, Newark, N. J. The Zetter 25-riug target was used, 

 Snellen allowing bis opponent fifty points on the 100 shots. Snel- 

 len, who is undoubtedly the fiuest gallery shot in New-Tersey, did 

 not pull himself together until after his fourth string, but after 

 that be settled down to pretty work, his last sis strings averaging 

 245 5 8 poims. 



The full score of the match is given below, it being shown that 

 Snellen's total is but three poinis below the world's record made 



by 'Mr. Dorrler a couple of years ago in a 100-shot match on the 

 Our Own Ranges in Newark. Mr. Suellon intends to make an at- 

 tempt in a short time to beat Mr. Dorrlei's record.

Newark Rifle Notes< 



The gallery shooters of this section are fairly active just nowi 

 with the w^rk entailed by the Forest and Stream tournament 

 and the numerous private contests between teams and individu- 

 als. It is to be deplored, by the way, that more of the local clubs 

 did not enter the, tournament above mentioned, but they prob- 

 ably had good Teasons for not doing so. It was thought that the 

 North Wards. Warrens and Independents would surely enter, 

 but they failed to do so. 



Our Newark rifPmen are snvliug quietly at the assurance of 

 the Jersey City papers in asserting that first place lies between 

 the Millers and Escelsiors. Our boys are of the opinion that both 

 the Esses Amateur and Our O wn teams will be, "in at the finish." 



On Thursday evening, Jan. 14, J. Bander and C. Halsev of the 

 Our Own club shot a match against D. Erskine and J. Phillips of 

 the North Wards, the contest taking pla.CS on the lattei's range. 

 The conditions were 50 shots pex man on the Zsttler 25-ring tar- 

 get, distance 75't. The scores follow:

The return match will be shot on the Our Own range on Jan. 28, 

 when it is hoped that the scores all around will be better. 



During the recent match in Jersey City between the Excelsiors 

 and the Our Owns, of this city, some of the latter's members were 

 obliged to shoot with a strange rifle, owing to the fact that the 

 member who was deputized to carry the club rifles picked up one 

 which had not been used for months, instead of taking along the 

 one with which said members had been shooting for weeks. 



The Puritan and Warren Rifle elub3 shot a match on the lat- 

 ter's range on Jan. 13, the 12 ring larget being used. The result 

 was a victory for the Puritans by a score of 1.036 to their oppo- 

 nent's 1,012. Hanselman made 116 and Carpenter 114 for thePuri- 

 tans, thu Warren's high score being 108 by T. Nunley, The return 

 match will take place on the Puritan's range on Jan. 27.

The Shooting Eye. 



"What remarkable blue eyes vou have!" The remark was ad- 

 dressed by a writer to an ex-officer in the regular army, whose 

 life has contained more than an ordinary share of adventures and 

 vicissitudes. '"That is what they call in England the 'Wimbledon 

 eye, 1 " was the reply, "because it is meant to shoot with. Scien- 

 tific men will tell you that there is no such eye for marksmanship 

 as the blue one of the color which has escited your attention. 

 Black eves aud brown eyes aren't in it with the blue, any way, 

 when it comes to shooting or fighting. Tnat is why the Northern 

 people have always wiped the Southern races out when it came 

 to war." - Washington Star.
