cause of their i'll success in this direction
must be attributed to the fact that it is Hart

A nav with the RiHc on Bayou

A nay with the Rifle on bayou ~. John.
Now that the crack team OF our Crescent City
Rifle Club IL away IL would naturally be thought
that there would be some dlminution in sport At
Frogmoor on sundays. but contrary TO the gem
eral impression there seems to be sort OF gun.
powder revival amongst our marksmen. Hardly
a day passes but what some new convert is
brought into the fold and breeeh-loading rifles
aud implements are purchased and sore
shoulders follow. The international eon-
test, of course, has had much 10 do with
this, but outside Of that there seems TO
be greater interest shown in rifle shooting than
at any previous time. The sport is so innocent
lacking everv association with what would con-
taminate, that it will in very short time become
as national as ball aud other more exhaus ting
amusements.
Yesterday there was goodly crowd Ut Frog
moor to witness the contest for the military
badge, at 400 yards, off hand. with Springfield
breeoh-loaders. The competition was between
bona Hde members Of military organizations. and
tillery, Louisiana Field Artillery, Continental
Guards and the Mitchell Rifles. After display
OF much good msrksmanship, Capt. Wm. Pierce
was declared the victor, he having score OF
his heels was Lieut.. p. w. Montgomery, Of the
Mitchell Rifles, who also made thrty-two. but in
ssmuch az he had scored miss and Capt. Pierce
had not, the latter was accorded the victory.
One Of the events OF the day was some re-
markable shooting on the part Of Mr.. 7. q.
McQuithy with Remington, at 800, gf0 and
1000 yards. This was the first time Mr.. MeQuithy
ever fired full score at these ranges, and yet he
succeeded In putting in 174 out OF 225. This, for
q beginner, Ia doing surprisingly well.
We have plenty Of shooting material here. and
1t only needs time TO bring IL out and develope it.
There is no reason why Cub contests should not
be attended by At least fair representation OF
every military organization in the city. In New
York Creedmoor 10 seldom silent. and the crack
every day In the week. The officers Of regiments
or independent companies see that their m. n
know something Of marksm manship, as well as the
manual OF arms, and we should do it here also.
TIE distance to Frogmoor Ia short, and the ao-
oommodaions oil that could be desired. Let us
soc more men at the rifle butts.

GERNON's SPREE.
Which He no Doubt Regrets, as 1t Cost
Him $1,000.

Him $1,000.
Michael Gernon, ex-recorder, and now a no
tary, although old in years has spark OF human
kindness for the fairer sex. In fact, nothing
pleases this specimen Of antiquity better than
to take q carriage at night and have ride with
one OF them to the lake.
This being his feelings on Friday night, the
Oath instant, he hired carriage and repaired to
the house No. Is Liberty street, and invited
Minnie Landers to take ride with him. Minnie
accepted. and getting into the carriage the pair
started lakeward. When near the halfw house
the ancient Lethario concluded that he did not
wish to go to the lake, and ordered the driver to
turn back, which order was obeyed.
When the carriage for the second time reached
the house, No. IS Liberty street, Minnie and her
friend alighted and they both entered. After a
tete.a-tete, and after bidding the fair one good
by. Gernon left the house, again entered the car
rage and drove .home. On reaching home he
put his hand in his pocket for the purpose Of pay
ing the driver, and to his astonishment thou
sand dollars Of the s2500 he had in his pocket had
been flched from him. Gernon was going to
make Rome howl about his lucre, but he was i'm
pressed with the belief that a man who plays the
fiddle must know how to dance, 80 he paid the
driver and said nothing.
The real cause why Gernon did not squeal was
because he did not wish to be brought before the
public by newspaper notoriety. But the loss Of
the $1,000 made him feel bad. and on Saturday he
met Aid Peeora and told him all the facts con-
nected with the robbery, but told the detective
not 10 say anything to the Chief about it. The

A SAD AFFAIR.
Three Children Poisoned From Eating

Three Children Poisoned From Eating
TOadstOVls.
When parents cit by the deathbed Of q child
and watch II slowly pass away with some per-
nicious disease, thea their agony is heart-break-
ing; hut when they meet their little ones with
brigh. faces in the morn and bestow on them
their morning kiss, and at noon find them at the
thresbhold Of death, their agony cannot be do
scrbed.
Mr.. and Mrs. Davenport, residing on Amelia
street, had such TO contend with yesterday.
Their three little ones rose with faces as bright
as the morning sun and rushed to their parents
side, and were given the expected kisses.
After partaking OF breakfast they went out into
the yard to play. While playing they discovered
some toadstools, and, believing that they were
mushrooms, plucked them and ate them. Their
flavor being paatable, they ate quite number.
When weary Of their sport they returned TO the
house.
AT about IL o'clock they all three became seri-
ously ILL., and 1t was some time b fore 1t was dis
covered what was the matter. The eldest one,
when questioned, remarked that they had not
eaten anything but few mushrooms that they
had plucked in the garden.
The supposed mushrooms we're examined and
found to be toadstools.
DR.. John Carter was Immediately summoned,
who, arriving, administered the proper purga-
tlves.
At last accounts the two eldest children, one
ten and the other twelve, were out Of DANGER
but the little one, five years old, was still in o
critical condition.. 1t appears that the youngest
oae ate more OF the poisonous vegetable than the
two elder.
