THE GUN.
Meeting of the Sportsmen's Associa-
ton.


As the hunting season is over the only
matter of Importance to sportsmen is in re-
gard TO the Emeric game bill which received
heavy setback in the Senate a few days
ago.
Ii the sill was SO arranged as to meet the
wishes of spOrtsmen in general 1t would
shoot through both houses without opposi-
ton.
There are some very good measures in
the bill, which if they should become law
would prove Of value to the spOrtsmen of
the State.
The originator of the bill. however. over
stepped the grounds of iurisprudenc e in
some things and evidently forgot in the ex-
element of the moments of writing that he
was resident of the Pacific Coast, where
laws of class nature are yet too early for
successful introduction in 1.-THE wild aud
woolly west"
As previously stated In THE CALL, this
Countrywide Pacific Slopes amply large
enough to permit all men who love to shoot
the enjoyment Of a sport that is denied the
men of limited means and station in foteign
lands.
No matter how large the country game
needs protection, and to that end and pur-
pose money and men are the necessary
requirements.
Without substantial appropriation the
ofhcers who are appointed to look after the
interests of game and fish are powerless TO
do any good.
The laws as they now stand are good
enough II enforced, and it is to be hoped
that the objectionable features Of the
Emerc bill VIII receive a well-merited shot
from the Senators, which will cripple all
future attempts at their introduction in this
State.
On Tuesday evening tina committee ap-
pointed by the Sportsmen's Protective AS
soeatiOn to LOOK after It's interests at Sacra-
mentO will present IFS rpnort NJ the rnonfi,I1-
meeting of the club. which will take place
at Knights of the Red Branch Hail. Mason
and OFarIell streets. All sportsmen H.
terested in the chase are invited to attend.

COURSING.
Getting Ready for st. Patrick's Days
RACING


ANY sportsman who has love for field
sports and who has never witnessed a
coursing match should attend the big meet
ing Of the Pacific Coursng Club, which
will be held at Ocean View Park on the
18th inst
For weeks the club members have been
training their dogs for the great meeting,
and unless the hares which the manager OF
the park had forwarded to him few weeks
ago from Upton, MERGED County, are run
Ders OF great form the dashes will be short
and spirited.
As precantion against the possibility of
sprint racing the keepers of the park have
given the invaders free scope of the running
sward. and as a result the hares have be-
come accustomed to the ground and will De
equal TO the occasion when they are called
upon to stretch themselves on St. Patrick's
day before the aforementioned dogs of the
Pacific Coursing Club.
For some weeks past the manager of the
park had to Introduce what is termed the
stuffed or artificial hare, which afforded
some amusement to the owners of young
dogs.
Owing to the heavy rains which flooded
the interior country, and especially the
plains in the vicinity of where the hares are
trapped. II was impossible to ship the game
10 this city, and as consequence the lovers
OF courslDg had TO rely upon the artificial
Jack" to furnish them with amusement.
Now that hares ad libitum can be shipped
from the country and will arrive in good
condition at the Ocean View preserve the
patrons of the leash will have no reason to
grumbe in the future, as all the hares
needed for running purposes can be supplied
on short notice.
This afternoon the club will hold meet
Ing preparatory to the big event on the 18th
inst, and sny sportsman who takes pleas
ure in witnessing a good horserace should
Journey to Ocean View and compare notes.
He Will realize that If there is pastime to
be compared with the grand sport of the
turf 1t is that which is to be with essed Oh
the coursing field.

qualified to give the Reliance players cards
and spades and a beating. but the boys
from over the bay think differently. How
ever, the only way to determine which club
can produce the best players is by the con-
summation of a series of matches.
The great interest that has recently been
manifested in professional handball has
astonshed the old hRbitues of the Howard
street ball courts vino have been accus-
toned to seeing only few hundred people
congregate on Sunday afternoons to witness
the games got up by Individual players.
The inauguration Of tournaments has
aroused very spirited Interest in the sport
which Is unquestionably superior, from an
athletic point OF view, to all other indoor
or outdoor sports. Phil Ryan. the popular
promoter of the pastime, has done consider
able TO advance the sport and place it on an
equal footing with other athletic pastimes
that are now attracting considerable atten-
tion in San Francisco, Oakland and Sacra-
mentO.
The tournament which will be held In
few weeks will be a feature worth going
long distance to witness, as players from
various parts of the State have signified
their intention by letter to participate. The
handsome silver cups which will be con-
tested for have been made specially Tor this
tournament. and there is no doubt but that
the competition for them will be par
ticularly interesting.

The Queens Dog.
Forget Me Not.


In the early part of the year 1865. while
the Second Regiment of Life Guards was
quartered in the cavalry barracks at Spital,
near Windsor. an order was given for the
destruction of all dogs in the barracks.
On the morning OF the day on which
the canine friends of .he troops were
to be destroyed. her Majesty the
Queen made an INSPECTION of the Windsor
garrison, and while passing through
the quarters of the Second Life Guards.
accompanied by the colonel of the
regiment was much attracted by the ap-
pearance of small but very pretty terrier
dog named Dick, belonging to Corporal
Woodhouse, one OF the bapdsmen. The
Queen paused, caressed the little dog ard
spoke TO it. This saved its life, for The
colonel gave orders that Dick should be al
lowed TO live, while the rest of the dogs
were killed in accordance with the edict that
had gone forth. Dick for many years after
was the favorite of the regiment and was
honored with collar decorated with the
regimenial buttons, and on the plate of
which were some lines narrating how the
animals life was saved.

The Culture of Roses.


Let me give you a little information that
may be useful TO you this spring." said J,
NJ. Harrison of Tallahassee, Fla, at The
Lindell yesterday. II have at my home In
Florida ten acres of ground devoted entirely
to roses. love them and grow them to
look at. find there are very few people
who know how to prune roses. II is better
to prune them now than to wait for
spring, for the simple reason that
there Is great deal of evapo-
ration during frosty weather from
the unripe wood. Then prune them
again just before your bushes bud, as You
Will ind some portions have been Injured
during the winter despite the most careful
precautions. Cut out the thin and weak
wood in order to give more strength to the
rest. Different classes of roses require diff
ferent pruning. The young, vigorous wood
may be severely pruned, but the bushes that
bud from old wood should be permitted to
retain their branches. Noisette roses. for
instance. may be severely pruned, but the
hybrids need to be pruned long, as the flow
ers are produced on short branches"

Now that tie hunting season has drawn
to close, the fshing-rnd will replace the
shOoting-iron for several months to come.
Unless some heavy rains arrive before
April l the prospects for good angling look
exceedingly bright.
In athletic circles everything is life. The
clubs are getting ready for various kinds of
summer sport, and the preparations that
are being made are evidence Of lively sea-
son.
Coursing, handbal, tennis, billiards,
wrestling, rife-shooting and rowing are
Lines of sport that will be well patronized
this year.
