sally commended. II made but lutte
noise and produced scarcely visible
fugitive smoke, that vanished almost
instantaneously.
Target shooting with the pistol is
practiced but little in this country.
Within the last five years, however, it
has been taken up by some as pas
time. Prior to the war, pistol practice
was by no means uncommon, but the
rifle supplanted the smaller weapon to
large extent when hOstilities began.
Now pistol shooting or rather revolver
shooting, is growing in favor again.
The question arises, have we any men
here who could compete with any rea-
sonable hope of success with these
sllillful Frenchmen? The question is
not easily answered, as different condi-
tions prevail. Twelve yards is the
usual distance for pistol shooting with
us, and besides, the American is much
handicapped by the scarcity of gal
leries. The nearest approach we have
to the European pistol galleries is that
of James S. Conlin in the Manhattan
Athletic Club building.
Mr.. Conlin says he could pick out
team of twenty-five men-mostly New
Yorkers-whO, he thinks, could hold
their own with French team.

The Boy with a Piece of CHALK.

"The delight that the small boy ex-
periences in making a beautiful wavy
chalk mark along fence" says an in
dulgent father, must be great, but
suppose it is as nothing to the joy he
feels when he comes to one of those
lions or griffins or other of the archi-
tectural animals wherewith many of
of our more modern edifices are now
adorned. He carefully whitens the
eyes of these and painstakingly out
lines the mouth in white. Under this
treatment the most feroeious of lions
looks Respondent and ridiculous, and
the fiercest griffin looks as though he
would like to laugh. The small boy
says nothing as he passes on, drawing
his chalk across whatever surface may
be within handy reach. 1t is evident
that there is joy in his heart"

In a Green Old Age.

One of San Antonio's most
charming old ladies, Mrs. Amanda
J. Dignowity, yesterday celebrated
her 18th birthday anniversary at
her residence, No. 721 Olive street,
Dignowity Hill.
Around her hearthstone were
assembled all her living children,
all of whom are prominent citizens
of San Antonio, besides a large
number of warm friends, who gath
cred around her to congratulate her
on the occasion. She received her
children with all OF a mothers
pride and love, and her friends and
we'll wishers with that old time
grace which makes her so distinct
i've a favorite in the highest social
circles of San Antonio.
Mrs. Dignowity has lived in San
Antonio since 1915.

FRENCH CRACK SHOTS.
Wonderful Workmanship at a Re-

Grand Medal Won by VI. Bonzon-Six
Consecutive Shots Which Hit the
Bulls Eye-AmPrican Re-
yolyer Experts.

In France it is claimed that there are
more expert pistol shots than in any
other country. This is open to dispute,
particularly by Americans, but it is
pretty safe to assert that there is more
target pistol-shooting and more inter
est In it in France than in any other
land. At the last annual tournament,
held at the gallery of Gastinne Renette,
IL Avenue d'Antin, Paris, there was
plenty of evidence of the Frenchmcn's
skill with the pistol. The scores were
probably the best ever made in France.
To win a prize is considered a great
honor. At the last tournament, re-

TAX VS.. TACKS.

The County Assessor Has a Very
Peculiar Point to Decide.
County Assessor Louis HUH is
naturally an authority upon taxa
ton but he recently met a "point"
that gave him considerable trouble.
He has son, Adolph, who is an in
FAINT in years but an adult in
mischief and who is prone to
play practical jokes. Young
Adolph is rather friendly with a
tamale man that patrols the street
and is always playing practical
Jokes on him. The other evening
he took big tack, placed it point
upward in a chair, intending to
invite the tamale man to take a
seat. Unfortunately Mr.. HUH re-
turned before the tamale mans ar
rival and, being heated, took seat
on the gallery to cool off. He also
took the point of the tack and rose
supremely to the occasion. Inves-
tigation followed and the culprit
met with condign punishment.
When asked how he would assess
that tack Mr.. Huth candidly ad-
mitted that, judging by the sharp
ness of the point, he would assess
them at million dollars or COM
pei them to lay point downwards.

THE MAN OF THE HOUR.
Eugene v. Debs, President sf the Ameri

can Railway Union.
President Eugene V. Debs, of the
American Railway union, as the direct"
ing head of the boycott against the
Pullman company's cars, is prominent
figure in American affairs to-day. He
brings to the present struggle between
organized labor and organized capital
great executive ability, and he is be-
sides wonderful organizer. Mr.. Debs,
too, is an orator of no mean preten-
sions. He has a good voice and pres
ence, is magnetic and earnest. HepOs-
sesses absolutely the confidence of the
men in the American Railway union.
President De was born in Terre Haute,
Ind. in 1855. He received his aduca-
ton in the public schools of that city,
and when sixteen years old began work
as painter in the Nandalia railroad
shops. Afterward he worked for three
years as fireman on the same road.
His first appearance in public life was
his election to the Office of city clerk of
Terre Haute. He served two terms,
and when he was twenty-SiX years old
was chosen a member of the state legiS-
lature. While in that body he secured
the passage of several laws in the in
terest of labor. His speech nominating
Daniel Voorhees, for the United States
senate gave Mr.. Debs wide reputation
as an orator. At the end of his term
in the legislature Mr.. Debs was made
grand secretary and treasurer of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen,
and he filled that Office for fourteen
consecutive years. He was always an
earnest advocate of a federation OF
railway men, and through his efforts

Hawaii claims possession of the
whole group of isles which stretch
to the northwest, and constitute
geographically part of this group.
In 1857 Captain Patty was sent by
Kamehameha " in the schooner
Manuokawai on a voyage to the
Northwest Islands. He visited
Nihoa, Necker, Gardner, Laysan
and Lisiansky Islands, and also
the Pearl and Hermes Reef, but
did not GO to Midway or Ocean
Island. Midway Island was occu-
pied by the United States about
1868, and an attempt made to
establish a coaling station for the
China steamers but it was subse-
quently abandoned. Ocean Island
was taken possession of in 1886 by
Jas. III. Boyd who went down there
in the Waialeale, which had been
chartered by the English and Ha-
waiian Governments to rescue the
crew of the shipwrecked vessel
Dunnottor Castle.

The island is large lava rock,
and was formerly inhabited, as
there are square walls about 3 feet
high, 4 feet wide, and from 80 to
40 feet long !; on the top of which
are large fat stones standing on
end and about 2 feet apart. 1t was
first thought that some shipwrecked
crew had made a landing here.
After a search, however, nothing
could be found to indicate that
such was the case. Captain Free
man found several old images and
idols in a good state of preserva-
ton, except for the injuries received
by exposure to the weather. A
number of these idols were brought
