There is a handsome silver cup for each class to be raced for on con- 
secutive Saturdays, July 21 to Sept. 1, inclusive. The yacht with best 
credit at end takes cup. Wind N., light over first and second legs, 
fresh to finish. The triangle was 6 miles, but a heavy squall while 
placing marks so disturbed things that the course was not much over 
3 miles for first and second classes; third class course, 2% miles tri- 
angle. The club votes on the question of y a allowance to yawls at 
next meeting, which will alter time of Khedive.

tendance. The schooner yacht Daylight was club boat.

bhadow and others were present. Chas. H. Cousens. 
Vigilant's Pilot. 
Editor Forest and Stream: 
We have had some controversy at our house upon the pilot question 
on Vigilant while racing in British waters. 1. Do the pilots have con- 
trol of the yachts while in a race? 2. Are they in supreme command 
of the yacht while they are aboard during a race? 3. Do the captains 
Eiveup the wheel to them? 4. Do the captains have to take orders 
from them ? 
The pilot has no control of the yacht, he is not in command, he does 
not handle the wheel or tiller, and the captain gives all orders. The 
duties of a pilot on a racing yacht are purely advisory; he gives in- 
formation to the captain as to courses, tides, wind, weather, etc., 
being chosen for his local knowledge of such matters. The exact re- 
lations between the pilot and the captain depend on circumstances. 
YACHT NEWS NOTES.

Revolver Shooting in England. 
London, July 26.— Editor Forest and Stream: The Bisley meeting 
is just over, with the wettest meeting on record. The wind was very 
bad and strong most of the time also. On the opening day, July 10, 
there was a good light and hardly any wind, and Mr. Walter Winans 
took advantage of it to pile up scores in the revolver shooting, which, 
if he had not fired any more during the rest of the meeting, would 
have given him six first prizes and two divided first prizes. The next 
few days were very windy and he hardly shot; on the 13th he had a 
little better opportunity although the wind came in gusts, and made 
the two 41 scores at 50yds. already reported in Forest and Stream. 
At the limited entry competition for military revolvers at 20yds (re- 
stricted to two entries) he lost his chance by a bad cartridge, the only 
one he has had out of the thousands he has fired this year in practice 
and competition, and it lost him his opportunity and made him come 
second. In the grand aggregate he was more than 30 points ahead of 
the next best man. On one of the very windy days he shot a few shots 
at the running man and the running deer, in competitions which are 
open all the meeting and in which he was therefore handicapped by 
shooting on a bad day, but he only shot for something to do when it 
was too bad to shoot a revolver. To his great surprise he has won 
fourth prize at each of them. 
f ?As Mr. Winans was the only American at Bisley this year who shot, 
he has done pretty well for thestars and stripes by carrying off eleven 
first prizes, dividing two first prizes and winning two fourth prizes 
out of fifteen he shot for. Below are details of the scores: 
Any revolver, first series, 20yds., moving target, highest possible 
score 42.— Walter Winans and Capt. Heath divided first prir.e on score 
of 41. 
Any revolver, second series, 20yds., disappearing target, highest 
possible score 42.— Messrs. Winans and Joynt divide first prize on score 
of 40. 
Any revolver, third series, 20yds., rapid firing, highest possible score 
42. — First, Walter Winans, 39 (best on record score); second. Dr. Brit- 
ton, 36. 
Any revolver, fourth series. 20yds., stationary target, only two 
entries allowed, highest possible score 42.— First, Muirhead, 40; sec- 
ond, Walter Winans, 39. 
Any revolver, fifth series, 50yds., stationary target, highest possible 
score 42.— First, Walter Winans, 41 (best on record score) ; second,

Zettler Rifle Club. 
The Zettler. Club held its practice shoot at WissePs Cypress Hills 
Park, on Aug. 5. The weather was fine, and as a consequence high 
scores were in order. M. Dorrler surprised his brother members by 
walking into the shooting house in the early hours of the shoot with 
his outfit in working order. His subsequent shooting showed that tht 
old veteran bad a little form left in him yet. His total in a series oi 
50 consecutive shots was 1,105. 
Ross was in his usual form and put up a fine score, his scores were 
as follows: 232 228 216 228 223—1127. 
The man target was to-day, as in the past, the center of interest. It 
being open to visiting shooters, generally brings the visitors into the 
competition. On this occasion Thos. Lloyd, one of the visitors, bor- 
rowing Barney Zettler's rifle, on his second effort put up the good 
score of 57; to beat this score was the aim of all the others in the 
competition. None succeeded, however. M. Dorrler only could tie 
him, making 57. Holges and Hansen tied with 56. Busse was last 
with 55. Those who got no share in to-days's division will be found in 
the next competition with expectation oozing from every pore. 
On the bullseye target, 4in. center, 3 shots only: Holges 2, Ross 2, 
Krauss l. Scores:

High Score for Mr. Wilder. 
. Walnut Hill, Mass., Aug. 4.— At the weekly shoot of the Massachu 
setts Rifle Association to-day Mr. Salem Wilder, tbe world-famed rifle 
expett and experimentalist, performed the remarkable feat of scoring 
117 out of a possible 120 in a rest match at 200yds. It is true that his 
shooting was done by the aid of a telescope and with his rifle con- 
trolled in part by a slide rest, but these facts have but little weight 
when it is considered that Mr. Wilder is nearly 72 years of age. 
Other scores made to-day were, 200yds., standard American target-

New York Central Corps. 
I The New York Central Schuetzen Corps, Capt. D. Meersse, held Its 
annual festival and prize shoot at the Union Hill Park on Wednesday 
and Thursday of last week. The weather on both days was fine. 
There was a large attendance of riflemen, and the competition for the 
prizes on the ring, man and bullseye targets brought out many fine 
scores. 
Louis Flach, of the Zettler Club, was present on Wednesday and dis- 
tinguished himself by making the fine score of 74 out of a possible 75 
on the ring target. There was a great attendance of visiting societies 
on Thursday afternoon. The New York Corps, Capt. Henry Offer- 
man, came into the park nearly 150 strong. There were also large 
delegations from the New York Independent Corps, New York City 
Corps, Hoboken Independent Corps and others. "Among the promi- 
nent riflemen present were F. C. Ross, M. Dorrler, L. P. Hansen, R. 
Busse, H. D. Muller; E. Berkman, Philip Schmidt, Jas. Eisenhardt, R. 
Buzzeni, Fred Schmidt 
The Zettler Brothers furnished the rifles, and many of the winning 
marksmen owe their success to the good qualities of these rifles and 
ammunition. 
On the ring target Louis Flach was first with the score referred to 
(74), M. Dorrler was second with 72 (24, 24, 24), L. P. Hansen third with 
72 (25, 25, 22). 
The best score on the man target was made by F. C. Ross with 58, 
Louis Flach was second with 56. F. C. Ross also carried off the honors 
on the bullseye target.

val at the close of the Bhoot. Scores:
