SHORE SHOOTING.
Good Cheap Sport for Ambitions Owners
Of a Gun

BY DIANA C3OSSWATS.
With the approach OF autumn every
youth who handles a rife begins 10
dream golden dreams in wh.ct focks OF
lids or ducks are tle mos, enhancing
feature.
Wild duck or shore shooting" as our
English friends call il, is delightful
sport although defided by some Of the
more fas;id.ous class CT sportsm5n. In
return, it may be stated that 1t is the
only reasonably cheap form oil sncotlng
lest 10 those Of limited means.
Out on Long Island, or down on Tom 5
river. New jersey, are ideal preserves
for those living in or near New York
and each locality doubtless has us own
grounds where shore shooting may Dc
carried on with success.
The methods OF the shore shooter as
well as the contents III his sag, diff
with the locality. On long, w.de, sandy
shores. unrelieved by rocks or anything
that may serve as cover, his success Is
usually small, unless he goes cut between
the lights. and On the approach Of rough
weather. It may be laid down as RUE
in this kind OF sport above all others
that the shooter must rely almost n
tirely on his own knowledge OF n; oi1os
and their habits, and his Cwn skill and
ingenuity in ouywit,ihg them. Rocky
coasts offer more opportunities and
pleasant surprises but the shooters para
disc is muddy estuary.
Hither come all sorts Of wild foul

A FINE DISPLAY.

Among the many exhibits of the State
Fair. none are more interesting or at
tractive than that of the Wheeling
Business College. The display OF pen
manship consists of both ornamental
and plain practical writing. A praci-
cal illustration of the methods of teach
ing in this institution is given by sew
eral of the students, who, by their rapid
practical work in arithmetic, short
hand. etc. afford spectators en- oppor-
tunity of judging for themselves of the
merits of the College. The College
claims superiority over all others in It's
method of teaching bookkeeping, 1t
could not be made more practical as the
students use the textbook only in the
preparatory part Of the course. They
then enter the several business Offices
which include the Merchants Empori-
um. Commercial Exchange, College
Bank. etc, where the knowledge ac-
ouired from the textbook is applied in
the most practical manner.
