Our marksmen respect the opinion of the Society for the prevention of cruelty to animals, and large company gathered, last week, to witness the first Glass Ball match, of the season, at the Center, the contestants being MT. Charles A. Ives of Ply- mouth, MT. w. E. Gaylord and Mr. Frederick G. Gray, of Goshen. MT. Gaylord, who is very ingenious, never having seen a trap to throw the balls made one which proved itself a strong, quartering, and away thrower. It was curious to see them break the balls, filled with feathers when they were up in the air. Each of the contestants shot at 40 balls, and the number broken was as follows, Gray, 26, Ives, %, Gaylord 25.
