The MiUer Rifle Club. 



TToBOKEN, N. J., March 35.— -Ed jtor Forest and Stream: The reason 

 given in last week's issue of Foeest and Stream by the "Eagle" for 

 his statement some weeks ago to the effect that the Miller Bifle Club 

 was about to disband, I think is a very weak one. The Newark papers 

 he speaks of only advised the Miller Rifle Club to disband. Now as re- 

 gards to our club shooting for money only, this is untrue, as the side 

 bet they generally ask for goes toward paying for refreshments, car- 

 fare, etc. Now we do not deny saying that in the event we would ar- 

 range a match with tlie Hudson Rifle Club, should we accede to their 

 request to bar our New Y"ork members from shooting in the match, 

 we would not have such a strong team as we are known to possess. 

 As far as that goes we can shoot a team against theirs of fifteen or 

 twenty men a side if necessary. We did not refuse to meet them in a 

 seven men team match for fear of them, but because we have never 

 made it a practice to shoot less than ten men a side. Another thing, I 

 will wager that I can name the party who gave the alleged informa- 

 tion to the Newark reporter, and also that I can name the latter. It is 

 at the most only an outburst of long-concealed jealousy at the victory 

 of the Miller Rifle Club in the Fore-st and Stream's recent tom-nament, 

 by which the Miller Rifle Club won the New Jersey championship. The 

 reason Capt. Fischer refused to shoot a match with C. E. Bird a few 

 months ago was given in Forest and Stream at the time. Business 

 would not allow him the time to shoot the match, and furthermore, 

 Mr. Bii'd wanted to shoot thi-ee matches of 100 shots apiece for go a 

 side, then he turns around and says in Forest and Stream that the 

 stakes would be .^lOO a side in case a match would be arranged. KiucUy 

 publish and oblige, Miller Rifle Club.

[No good IS likely to come of prolonging this discussion. The one 

 thmg that the public cares to see is an actual standing up at the score.] 



New York Central Schuetzen Corps. 



Wasuin&ton Park, New Y^ork City, March 23.— The New York Cen-

Bundes Fest and International Shoot. 



The call for a meeting of delegates from the various shooting 

 societies in and about New York, to take place on Ji'riday evening, 

 starch 24, at 12 St. Mark's place, was responded to by representatives 

 from a large number of the societies. Tke foUowing societies were 

 represented at the meeting; The New Y^ork Schuetzen Corps, New 

 York Central Schuetzen Corps, New York City Schuetzen Corps, 

 Zettler Rifle Club, Newark Shooting Society, Brooklyn Schuetzen 

 Corps, Williamsburg Schuetzen Corps, Manhatten Schuetzen Bund, 

 Albig Rifle Club, Austrian Schuetzen Corps, Hoboken Schuetzen 

 Corps, New York Schuetzen Bund, Independent Germania Schuetzen 

 Bund, Harlem Schuetzen Corps. Ex-Capt. Fred Cook, of the New 

 York Schuetzen Corps, was chairman of the meeting, and in the ab- 

 sence of Mr. G"S Nowak. the secretary of the previous meeting, Mr. 

 C. F. Roedel, secretary of the New York City Schuetzen Corps, was 

 elected to fill the vacant chair. 



After the minutes of the previous meeting had been read and 

 adopted the object of the present meeting was laid before the dele- 

 gates by the chauman. The previous meeting of these delegates had 

 been caUed for the piu-pose of deciding whether the shooting societies 

 of New York would respond to the invitation of the Chicago 

 Schuetzen Vereln to take part in the Columbia Festival at Chicago 

 this summer or not. 



The prospectus of the shooting programme, as submitted to the 

 meeting, was in so far as the prizes went, very satisfactory, the prizes 

 being liberal. But there was one feature of the programme that was 

 decidedly unique. The prospectus proposed to have the festival open 

 on a Sunday and close in the evening, and remain closed untU the fol- 

 lowing Sunday, when It would open again as on the first Sunday, to be 

 closed again in the evening, and thus it was proposed to carry on this 

 festival thi-ough the Sundays of six months. This f eatm-e in the pro 

 gramme was a stiunbling block from the outset, and a request was 



forwarded to the Chicago Verein, to change the programme so as to 

 have the festival held from one to three weeks continuously. The re- 

 quest of the New York shooters accomplished little, however. The 

 only modification that the Chicago management would consent to was 

 to add one day in the week to tiie programme, making two days per 

 week, Sunday and Monday, and restricting the length of the festival to 

 three months, from June 1 to Sept. 1. 



The impracticability of holding a shooting festival for three months 

 (two days per week) continously was so apparent to all, that on motion 

 of Mr. Schmitt, of the Manhatten Bund, it was decided that the New 

 York societies would not participate in the Chicago festival. 



The decision of the meeting in the Chicago matter having been 

 settled, the next question to come up was, shall the New Yoflc soci- 

 ties form a new Bund for the purpose of holding a festival in New 

 York in 1894. 



This question brought Mr. F. Baumaun, secretary of the New York 

 Central Corps, to his feet He advocated the forming of a Bund, and 

 said that he, could guarantee the united support of the New York 

 Central Corps. 



Mr. Baumann was followed bv Capt. Rehm, of the New York City 

 Corps; ex-Capt. Geb. Krauss, of the Williamsburgh Corps; Capt. Of- 

 ferman, of the New York Corjis; Capt, Witte, of the Brooklyn Corps; 

 President Ad. Ludwig, of the STaiihattan Bund; these gentlemen 

 were all strongly in favor of a Bund, and as the last speaker resumed 

 his seat there were cries of '-Question!" from all parts of the room; 

 and upon the question being put to a vote it was unanimously decided 

 to form the Bund. 



It was also voted to send out another invitation, which, it is hoped, 

 will reach every shooting society in the vicinity of New York. The 

 next meeting will be held at No, 13 St. Mark's place, on Friday even- 

 ing, April 21. This meeting wiU be of great importance, and upon its 

 result will in a large measure depend the success of the Bund. 



From now until April 21 it wiU be well forjthe societies to canvass the 

 merits of all the prominent names who are likely to be brought for 

 ward for permanent offices in the Bund. The success of a Bundes 

 Pest rests principally with its board of officers.

Excelsior Rifle Club. 



Gbbenvillk Schuetzen Park, Jersey Ciity, March 22.— The Excelsior 

 Rifle Club opened the season of 1893 with an informal shoot here this 

 afternoon, weather conditions being anything but favorable for good 

 scores, a strong southeast gale driving heavy banks of rain-laden 

 clouds in from the ocean, which made the fight very changeable and 

 tricky. However, the sI j io'h- ^ made the most of their opportunities 

 and succeeded in put! i i _ i'airlj^ good scores.
