B. Ramsey. SIT is our intention to
buy a piece OF ground which, strange
as it may sound, will not improve.
''In our old club we had experience
enough in this line to know exactly what
we want We would no sooner get q rifle
range fixed up nicely than people would
commance to build up around US Then the
next thing we would hear would be all sorts
OF complaints about the noise We made in
firing, and finally an injunctions would
come, preventing us from using the range, and
compelling US to move. No, this time We
will buy some out-of-the-world lot which
has not the least prospect OF improving a
cents worth. We nave suitable lot now
in view. On this we will erect complete
1,000 900, 800 and 200 yard ranges. We are
to have fine clubhouse which will be q
feature. Out of the members we now have
in view, we could to-day get aEtesm of ten
men who would campare tavorably with
any in the country. II we can judge by the
team we had some years ago, when the in
ducements offered tor rife practice were
very slim, the recoil Of the heavy guns we
used being sufficient excuse tor any man
tlring of the sport, we should have team
now that could sweep the country"
Some of the old members Of the Pittsburg
Rifle Club have fine records Mr.. G. E
Painter is probably the most expert shot

A gentleman saw Mr.. Reed Bailey, son of
Judge Bailey, shoot at 500 yards range and
put IS consecutive shots in the Bulls eye
and at the 9o0-vard range score 16 bulls
ewes. There are still few members of the
old club who hold together and 60 around
to the different shoots given by outside
organizations and manage to carry off not q
few of the prizes. Nh. D. II. Stoner on
recent trip succeeded in capturing num-
Der of first and second prizes. The gentle
men are very enthusiastic over the prospect
of the organization OF the club and are work

Pittsburg was at one time noted all over
the country for her expert rife team. The
old Pittsburg Rifle Club possessed as good a
1.OO0-yard team as was TO be found within
900 miles, and their 200-yard team was as
fine as anv in the country. The interest in
rife-shooting has died out, however, and
Pittsburg does not now possess thriving
club in that line. The shotgun offered ad-
vantaces in the ease by which one can be-
come an expert shot, aud the exciting sport
OF shooting live birds diverted the atten-
tion OF marksmen from the rifle to the shot
gun. The old members of the Pittsburg
Rife Club are about to revive the old
time sport in all its glory. The scarcity
Of birds and game in general has caused q
reversion of feeling in favor of the rife, and
the promoters of the reorganization think
the time is now ripe for forming a strong
club. The promoters of the new club are

Press Club Annual Meeting--
Rev. Wilkinson Over a
Fallen Woman.

Yesterday was rather an eventful day
for Mark Levy, the gentleman of He
brew extraction who runs q second
hand store at 1O1 First avenue south. At
about 1890 o'clock yesterday morning
he opened his shop and proceeded to
dust off some of the treasures that fill
the shelves. While thus employed two
rough-looking men entered, and one of
them demanded that Levy take off
his oyercoat. This, however, Levy
refused to do, inasmuch as he
preferred to wear his coat and sell
some of the secondhand ones he had in
stock. A wrangle ensued, the two men
endeavoring to force the secondhand
dealer to take off his coat. He wore a
handsome diamond, valued at $50, in
his neck scarf, and one of the men
caught HIM by the throat, attempting
at the same time to snatch the
jewel. The other miscreant came
to his partners assistance, and
things would have faired badly with
Levy had not his brother OPPORTUNITY
appeared on the scene. The brother had
a revolver concealed in a drawer behind
the counter and he tried to secure 1t,
but the ruffians anticipated his design
and frustrated it. Accordingly he
snatched up an old flint lock blunder-
buss, that had not known a charge of
gunpowder for half score of years.
Pointing it at the men whe were still
struggling with his brother, he yelled:
''Git out nit dis, or l will school
you'll"
The roughs, of course, stood not upon
the order Of their going, but levanted in
a manner that would have done credit
TO a creased pig. Mark, in the mean
time, had secured huge stave, and as
one of the roughs ran through the door
he belabored him over the head
with it. The rough who was struck
upon the head ran down the street
towards the union depot, and Officer
Conroy after him. Conroy fired
his revolver several times to
brighten the man, and finally, with the
aid of hackman, captured him. Off
Ger Butler captured the other one, and
the two were taken to the central sta
ton and locked up. Mr.. Levy has
number of cuts and bruises on his
hands and arms as a result of his strug-
gle. He will prefer charges against his
ASA ilantS this morning.

MORE FOR ALARMISTS.
DR.. tShutter Again on Relations
Between Capital and Labor.

DIR. Shutter Again on Relations
Between Capital and Labor.
Rev. M. d. Shutter presented more
Facts for Alarmists" at the Church of
the Redeemer last night. The general
trend of his argument was that the con-
dition of the laboring man is bet
ter today in this country than
it has ever been before, and
that it is constantly improving.
The gulf between Dives and Lazarus
between capital and labOr-is not so
broad as it used to be. and it grows mar
rover with each succeeding year. He
had figures to show that the working
men are not thinking of themselves
alone so much as they have been accus-
toned to. They are not SO given to CO.
ercing capital through the medium of
strikes. He says that the labor
unions of the present are work
ing to avoid the strikes instead
of to encourage them, as formerly, and
he quoted statistics showing that they
have been successful in many thou
sands Of cases. Then DR.. Shutter went
into the progress upward OF the work
ingman. The purchasing power of the
dollar is % per cent greater now than it
was thirty years ago, and in that time
the wages of the workingman have in
creased fully so per cent. Even in Mime
apolis, he said, wages increased between
the years 1875 and 1886 over 10 per
cent. He took this increase Of wages
and the increase in the purchasing
power of dollar to be evidence that
the condition of the workingman is I'M
proving. He held that the fact that
labor unions are using their influence
10 avert strikes and settle disputes by
arbitration was evidence that capital
aud labor were getting closer together
than formerly.
Tomorrow Dr. Shutter will go to
Galesburg, ILL.,, to deliver nine lectures
before the students in the seminary.
He requested the prayers of his congre-7
