Greenville Hunters^ Association* 
The twenty-fifth annual reunion and picnic of the Greenville, O., 
Hunters’ Association was held at the range, near Greenville, and 
was a record-breaker in numbers, enthusiasm, sport and scores 
made. In fact, it was the greatest success in the history of the 
club. Every detail had been carefully looked after, and the pro- 
grame, as arranged, was about perfect. As an evidence of their 
appreciation of the good time given them, the mernbers unani- 
mously re-elected the old officers: Major A. N. Wilson, Presi- 
dent; John F. Beaver, Vice-President; Henry Hetzler, Treasurer; 
Frank Smith, Secretary. The fir.st match was at 200yds., offhand,

range.” Animal targets, bear, doe, moose, and buck, 100yds., off-

President; E. Culberton, Vice-President; W, F. Smith, Secretary ; 
Joe C. Katzenberger, Treasurer; Geo. W. Sigafoos, Captain;

affairs of the club are in good condition, and the chances of get- 
ting new members are encouraging. The club’s range ^ is one 
of the best in thisi part of Ohio and Indiana. The reunion this 
year 'ivas the greatest success ever scored by the club.

The Zettler Festival. 
The thirty-first annual shooting festival of the Zettler Rifle Club, 
of New York city, was held on the 200yd. ranges in Union Hill 
Shooting Park, Union Hill, N. J., Sept. 27 and 28. There were 
several reasons why the attendance of expert riflemen from all the 
nearby States was so good, but among them were the facts that 
the weather was perfect for rifle shooting, the prizes hung up by 
the club numerous and valuable, and all restrictions had been, re- 
moved from rifles that could be used— meaning that only one re- 
mained by which all who entered must shoot, offhand. 
The. fine large shooting pavilion of the Plattdeutsche Volksfest 
Vereln, which owns the large park lying on the western slope of 
the heights at Union Plill, was comfortably filled from 10 o’clock in 
the morning until the last shot was fired at 6 P. M. each day. It 
was a gathering such . as may.be seen there during any important 
shoot held in summer, but with the addition of. a' number of the 
best shots of several nearby States and from all of New York 
city’s environs, Springfield, Mass., alone being represented by 
Harry Pope, Fred Ross and F. L. and Owen Smith. 
The Zettler Club’s grand old man, Ferdinand Fabarius,- who is in 
his eighty-sixth , year, put in an appearance early, ;and showed that 
be is still hale and hearty by carrying his own rifle and shooting 
kit. But on the afternoon of the second day, after, he had made a 
better score than some of the young men on the honor target, he 
met with an accident which sadly disturbed his nerves and put an 
end to his shooting for the day. On firing a shot from his favorite 
rifle, which is lighter than those with which he won countless 
trophies and prizes during his three-score years of rifle practice, 
the action cracked across both sides, the shell flew over his 
shoulder, and he stood with the stock in his right hand and the 
barrel in his left, startled and a bit stunned, but fortunately 
unhurt. The lock was not injured, nor was the barrel affected. 
Thereupon some waggish member hung the barrel and stock 
beside the cashier’s desk and labeled it thus: “Fabarius’ take- 
down rifle, model 1996,” which tickled the old gentleman im- 
mensely, as he is not only somewhat of an inventor, but fond of a 
joke as v/ell. 
High power rifles could not be used, the butts not being strong 
enough Rr their hard bullets; but several contestants shot smoke- 
less powder; among them Richard Gute, who was high man in the 
bullseye match, second on the honor target, and fourth on the ring 
target. 
This was the first big outdoor shoot of any club of this city in 
v/hich telescopic sights were admitted, and there were quite a num- 
ber of telescopes used. Among the experts we notied telescopes on 
the rifles of Fred Ross, Flarry Pope, Owen Smith, Richard Gute, 
' Arthur Hubalek, F. L. Smith, Henry D. Muller and several 
others, 'while Emil Berckmann and Michael Dorrler used them a 
part of the time. It is conceded by many local riflemen that this 
shoot will be used as a precedent by other clubs, which will le- 
move ail restrictions from magnifying sights in tournaments of the 
future. . 
Finally, too much praise cannot be accorded this old clu’o, its 
officers and members, for the fiiendly rivalry and the good fellow- 
ship it has fostered during, its thirty-one years of activity. 
The summary of the various rnatches follows: 
Target of honor, 3 shots, possible 75 points, open only to mem- 
bers, for prizes given by judges and members, and $160 ( i'fcred by 
the club, and divided into twenty cash prizes, ranging from $20 
. down to $4 :

Cincinnati Rifle Association. 
CiNfeiNNATi, O. — The following scores were made in regular com- 
peti'tibn by members of this Association at Four-Mile House, 
Beading Road, Sept. 24. Conditions, 200yds., offhand, at the 
Standard American target. Payne was champion for the day with 
the . good score of 89. He was also high man on the honor target 
with '28 points. This was the day set for the semi-annual 100-shot 
individual championship match. It was won by Mr. Nestler with 
the good score of 823. There were but few entries, however, and 
interest was consequently lacking. We were honored by a visit 
by Mr. Rohrer, who is one of Lexington’s, Ky., sharpshooters. 
He . has recently supplied himself with a complete muzzleloading 
otrtfit of the Stevens-Pope make, and when he gets broke in he 
will doubtless make somebody hump. The day was an ideal one, 
■ but no one seemed to be in fine fettle, no 90s being made. Our 
new member, Mr. John Case, did very well for a beginner in the 
art of shooting, and we hope to see . him reach the top of the 
ladder ere long. The scores: 
Nestler 79 85 83 83 87 78 84 82 80 82—823

Providence, R. I„ Revolver Club. 
Some excellent scores have been made the past month by our 
members. The outdoor season is practically closed for most of us 
whose Saturday' half-holidays are ended, but a few fortunates 
manage to puncture the targets and keep the range open. 
Waiter H. Freeman with a .38 Colt, officers’ model revolver, in 
shooting a 50-shot string, made a run of eleven consecutive 10s at 
50yds. on the Standard target, which shows the capabilities, of man 
and gun. And Wm. Almy, with a gun of the same model, has, to 
his credit the past week a run of nine 10s, which is fine work. 
We are looking forward now to the proposed plans for fall and 
winter shooting. We have outgrown the quarters we occupied 
last winter in the old armory, with its limited facilities and once 
a week opportunity to practice, and are planning to inclose a 
portion of our present range at Cranston, giving us three ranges 
for 20yd. revolver and pistol and 25yd. rifle work. It is proposed 
to light with acetylene gas, and with a stove to keep the snug 
shooting house warm, anticipate many pleasant gatherings., this 
winter. The proposed range will be at members’ disposal any 
evening, and 50yd. practice can be indulged in any pleasant day. 
The following scores have recently been recorded: 
Revolver and pistol, 60yds.: 'VValter H. Freeman 89, 88, 87; 91 91; 
82, 86, 88; Wm. Almy 91, 86, 86, 86, 84, 83, 83, 83, 83; 86, 85, 83,

Rifle Notes, 
We are informed that the Malcolm Rifle Telescope Mfg. Co., 
which was established in Syracuse, N. Y., in 1857 by Wm. 
Malcolm, and conducted there by him up to the time' of , his 
death, has been purchased by parties of Auburn, N. Y., and will 
be carried on up to the same high standards as heretofore. 
I.ieutenant-Governor Bruce, of New York, says a small head- 
stone in a cemetery in the western part of the State is pointed 
out to -visitors as one of the sights over the grave , of a widower, 
who, while not lacking in love for the departed one, was penuri- 
ous to a degree. He ordered a small stone because it was cheap, 
and ordered the mason to engrave on it this inscription: “Sarah 
Hackett, Aged Ninety Years. Lord, She Was Thine.” The 
stonecutter said there was too much inscriptiom for so small a 
surface, but was told to go ahead and “squeeze it on somehow.” 
Here is the inscription as “squeezed”: “Sarah Hackett; Aged 
Ninety Years. Lord, She Was Thin.”
