A Texas military company was out
on the range recently practicing at
rife shooting. The lieutenant in
command became exasperated at the
poor shooting, and, seizing a gun
from one of the privates, angrily ex-
claimed:
"Ill show you fellows how to
shoot!"
Taking q long aim, and a strong
aim, and an aim all together, he fired,
and missed. Cody turning to the
private who owned the gun, he said
"That's the way you shoot"
He again loaded the weapon and
missed. Turning to the second man
in the ranks, he remarked.
THAT'S the way you shoot"
In this manner he contrived to miss
fifty or sixty times, illustrating to
each soldier his personal incapacity,
and hnally he accidentally hit the
target. "And that" lie calculated,

Others from John c. New, one abont ''arrang-

that the railroads in the State were urged
to hold their trains on election day long
enough for the train hands to vote at their
homes before being sent out over the
line There is not thing in the letters from
start to finish that state anything illegiti-
mate, and their publication at this time
serves only to show the stupid malice of the
New York Sun, which, like a mad dog,
doesn't know when it is biting a file, and to
show also that Dorsey is dead to any sense
of honor, if, indeed, he ever was alive to 1t,
by playing the part of a sneak thief in now
publishing, private individual, letters
which he received as secretary of the Repub-
lican national committee People every

was tried for stealing from the government,
and he is trying to get even, and so far the

or some other large city. For "safety's
sake" he requests duplicate. He sends the
latter to pal in some other town, and this

that issued it be telegraphed to to find out if
it is all right The answer is "Al right"

game, and that is to not issue duplicate

given for asking for it.
