The Memphis Tournament. 
We have just received a copy of the programme for the third 
annual tournament of the Memphis Gun Club. The Memphis tourna- 
ment of 1894 was a big affair, but the shoot given last year outdid its 
predecessor in every detail. This year the club proposes to have a 
week of shooting, and to make this event an improvement on that of 
1895. As an inducement for shooters to attend its tournament the 
club will add $1,600 in cash and $500 in prizes to the purses. The 
dates for the shoot are May 11-16. 
For the first day, May 11, there can hardly be said to be any regular 
schedule of events; it iB really "merchandise prize" day, prizes valued 
as above at $500 being shot for on that day. The main feature of the 
day will be the "Memphis Mystery" event; in this event every con- 
testant is guaranteed a prize equal in value to the amount of his 
entrance fee. This event ought to be productive of much genuine 
fun. Other events to suit shooters will also be shot. 
The list of events scheduled for each of the next four days of the 
shoot, May 12-15, is as follows: seven 20-target events, $3 entrance, $50 
added to each event; one 25-target event, $4 entrance, $50 added to each 
purse. This make3 a total of twenty-eight 20-target events and four 
25-target events; thirty-two events in all, with $50 added to each purse. 
All purses are divided into 5 moneys, 30, 25, 20, 15 and 10 per cent. 
In its programme for the sixth day of the shoot the club has made 
a departure from the usual practice of breaking inanimate targets, a 
departure that has been rendered possible by recent legislation in the 
State of Tennessee. For this day a handicap at 25 live birds is an- 
nounced, $20 entrance, $500 guaranteed by the club and all surplus 
money added, class shooting, 4 moneys. Entries for this event can 
be made up to the night of May 15, post entries paying a forfeit of $5 
The above completes a recapitulation of the programme with the 
exception of a few references to the "rules and regulations." Under 
this head the club announces "No handicap, open to all." All shoot- 
ing will be at unknown angles. Dropping for place will not be toler- 
ated, the club adding: u We mean it." Shooting commences each day 
at 8:30. Special rates of a fare and a third on all railroads. Shells and 
suns can be sent in care of J. G. Schmidt & Son or Frank Schumann. 
In either case all goods so sent will be delivered at the grounds free of 
charge. 
In regard to the special Pullman car for Memphis from New York, 
which will leave at 3:30 P. M. on May 9 via the Shenandoah Valley 
route, the programme requests that those desiring berths in the car 
should send in their names to Noel E. Money, of the American E. 0. 
Powder Co., Oakland, N. J., or to Tom Keller. We have been asked 
to state that owing to Keller's business calling him to the extreme 
western limits of the United States, he will he unable to be present at 
the shoot or attend to the booking of berths for the above cars. All 
letters in regard to such matters should be sent to Noel Money.

Boston Gun Club. 
Boston, Mass., April 8.— The last shoot but one in the Boston Gun 
Club spring prize series took place at Wellington, Mass., to-day. 
Ahout a dozen shooters turned up to do justice to the programme. 
The prize totals have for the past three shoots assumed a condition 
most interesting. Between first and second is a difference of 3 birds, 
and it is by no means an impossibility that the second will succeed as 
winner of gold badge. Third and fourth positions are already tied, 
also sixth and seventh. The final day is awaited with some degree of 
anxiety. The weather conditions this week were excellent, and though 
the prize scores were somewhat lower than the average, some good 
shooting was done in the extra events.

Lakeside Bod and Gun Club. 
Burlington, Vt., April 3.— To-day was the opening shoot of the 
season for the Lakeside Rod and Gun Club, of thisdty. In spite of 
the disagreeable weather, a few of our more enthusiastic members

J. T. McC, New York.— Where can I get a Great Dane pup? Ans. 
We do not know of any for sale. 
A. G. Van Patten.— The entire programme at the New York State 
shoot is open to a resident of the 8tate. 
L. S., Jr., Providence.— Can you refer me to kennels where I can 
purchase greyhounds of the first water, preferably, of course, near 
my vicinity '/ Ans. We do not know of any for sale. 
W. W. K., Indianapolis, Ind.— I wish to purchase a thoroughbred 
English bull pup. I do not care so much for a long pedigree as for a 
good dog for amusement rather than fighting purposes. Can you 
put me in communication with a kennel that might have something 
that will fill the bill? Ans. We are unable to give you the informa- 
tion. 
A. W. J., Clinton, Conn.— An Irish setter, about seven yeara old, had 
one year ago in July a bunch under tongue. Finally the bunch dis- 
appeared. One shortly came on the other side of the tongue. I was 
told by local "dog men" it was a bone in the throat. The other 
bunch finally disappeared, and soon the bunch began to grow on the 
outside of the throat under the jaw, and has continued growing 
until now it is as big as a cocoanut, and for the past three days it 
has appeared to bother the dog much. Previously it was not very 
troublesome. It appears like goitre of the neck in a human being. 
Ans. I presume the swelling is not immediately under the lower jaw, 
but a little lower down. Apply Iodine ointment to lump twice a day. 
Give a five-grain extract of thyroid glend (Armour's) tablet three 
times. Continue the tablets for some time, and should there be no 
improvement increase the number.
