Dr. Bowe said Mr. Brewster, of the Washington Park ulub. had said 

 to him that perhaps the use of Washmgton Park could be obtained m 

 the late fall. Mr. Organ said he had heard similar ervpression. This 

 park a magnificent place for a shpot — a 1.^ minutes, run on a .5-

WHAT Till'] LAW SAVS, 



On the mornmg follo-wing the meeting it was cbscovered b.y the As- 

 sociation attorneys that an mteresfine: tact m the Illinois law had been 

 overlooked, tinder the statute no company can be organized with 

 shares of less than 5f 10 nor more than .si 00. The hcense "will be taken 

 out at the lowest amount, .shares need not be sold at par. If the 

 company sees tit. it can traiisfiir ten snares for the Sil contribution of 

 tbe shooter. Advices on this will be published later. 



WHAT I'HE SHOOTERS SHOULD DO. 



33 hat the shooter should rlo is plain. These subscription boobs will be 

 o]iened now \a»ry si3on at the company headqua.rters m Chicago, and 

 probalilv al-ii (though this was not mentioned) at the offices of the 

 leadint' 1; n oaoers. 1'he shooter should not wait. Heshould 

 send Ins 1 , .lee. aiid get his share in the widest shootmg enter- 



prise e\.i I , I I i d in America. 



'rWO POINTS OF VIEW. 



There are two ways ot looking at this. 1 he shooter can consider 

 Ins subscription as a gitt to the honor of America and sportsman- 

 ship md iMMiiild not hill t liiin 10 giM ^1 01 -m 01 'lilO foi Hiar alone 

 or he can look on his .subscription as an invest inent. and on his share 

 as valuable. 1 see no reason why these shares yvill not be valuable 

 XJfoperty. and good tor all their face value at least. There is money 

 m running a big tournament, as every one knows. The thing is to get

THE LAW COMMITTEE .\IEETINtt, 



Messrs. Baird and Low. of the law committee, met Messrs, Ogdeu. 

 Donald aud Hough, ot the executive committee of the State A.ssocia- 

 tion at the Sherman House Friday evening. The plans of the earlier 

 iiieetirm' in rctrard lo proposed i.-lianges m the game laws were not. 

 taken u]) I uere will be no move tor a new bill entire, and the county 

 "fl'arden bill ^vas dropped as a measure not likely to meet with guccess. 

 Nothing wtis said as to the shot-mark clause on quad, and indeed no 

 definite action of any kind was taken, discretionary xjowers being left 

 with the committee, should it be concluded to send a committee to 

 _l 11 lb pi in ( (huktnditi ^\ is not taken up il Ik ing ^iig

 1-1 1 iiroposmg to change It. Mr Donald was in tavor ot a bold 

 re , 11 VJr. Low believed in comproimsing more. Mr. Baird thought 

 Tnai more ooukl be gained l;iy not askmg too much. Comment was 

 made on tiie general, but erroneous idea that the game Utws were 

 urged liy the sportsmen as a inirely selfish measure. E. Hough.
