TRAP AND
TRIGGER.

Mr.. Limburger contemplates putting
up a shooting park in the rear of his
large hall on River avenue, where trap
shooters can shoot inanimate targets
and live birds at any hour of the day.
From reliable information the Light
learns that San Antonio has been Sc
lected as the permanent tournament
grounds of the State Sportsmen's asso-
| citation, and that the managers of the
midwinter shoots would combine and
| hold their joint tournaments here next
fall.
d. P. Barr, after trying all kinds,
makes and calibres of guns and ammu-
milton, has Joined the association of
haS-beens. His latest acquisition is
the three barreled German gun, shot
gun and rifle combined, with which he
| is trying to make a record on targets.
France was seen packing a mystic
rious loking machine last Thursday
morning in the front part of the gun
store. Many wondered what it was,
and others were of the opinion that
this curious looking object was relat-
ed to the flying machine seen here-a-
bouts lately. In the latter they were
! only partially mistaken, as the pice
of machinery was a Margaue trap ia
ken apart with electrical apparatus
storage batteries etc, was being ship
ped back to Cleveland, Ohio. The Ma
gaue trap is a magazine target trap and
that it has great power to make things
Ely" our shooters here-a-bouts can
testify.
The regular weekly shoots of the
Powder House Hill and San Antonio
Gun clubs, takes place on their respec-
tive grounds this afternoon.
The Association of Has-Beens have
used every endeavor to get Gus Critzer
to join their ranks, but in vain.

Is This Re.uIt De.irabIef

Should this country alone attempt
free coinage Of silver at the ratio of
sixteen to one, it would thereby give
notice that we are ready to exchange
for all corners quantity of gold which
is valued at one dollar in every civilized
country for a quantity of silver which
represents in the markets of the world
about so cents.
In very short time all gold would
disappear. 1t would be boarded to
await premium or shipped to coun-
tries where it is more appreciated. Only
silver would remain our circulating
medium. We would be on a silver basis.
Our standard would be a dollar worth
little more than so cents in every coun-
try but our own.
All values would quickly adjust them
selves to this deprecated dollar and
would fuctuate with its changing
value in international exchange.

Some of our would-be sportsmen are
killing doves at the present. time. In
doing this they are numbering the
goose that laid the golden egg"
The punishment that was injected
OUT by an unknown power to the gen.
tlemen sportsmen (0beCause they who
killed quail out of season near Dallas,
would be no more than justice in their
case. This party evidently became so
nervous and his conscience hurt him
so, that he picked up the wrong end of
the gun and dragged it through
fence, the bird shot taking off enough
flesh and hide to remind him he had
been justly punished.
Fargo and Strong defeated Nal and
Hickey in team match at live birds
at Pittsburg last week, scoring ia to
40 out of 200 birds shot at.

different shapes, which will give any
desired pattern.

with him, to lead all of the experts at
such a shoot. This lands another vic
tory for the Parker gun. If Budd
keeps up his streak he will make some
body practice up bit. But then
Charlie always was a good shot.
John Parker, of Detroit, managed the
Erhardt shoot at AtchisOn last week,
and when not too busy, was smashing

Gree Coinage" Demand Misleading

gree Coinage" Demahu hibiehui"-'
If any advocate of the free coinage of
silver dollars or copper dollars or iron
dollars at any ratio, sixteen to one, more
or less, will agree to stop there and ask
nothing more, for one am prepared tc
meet him, and in that way to stop the
present contest. Whowould want them?
Not one of these men will consent to
free coinage on those terms. Not one of
them would be satisfied. Not one Of
them would then get what he is after
under the preteXt that free coinage and
equal rights of gold and silver" are all
that he wants. challenge anyone to
find an advocate of free coinage at six
teen to one on these simple terms-that
both gold and silver should be treated
alike; that both gold and silver coins
shall be made for anyone who takes the
bullion to the mint to any number that
he wants. 1 challenge any advocate of
free coinage to deny that free coinage,
pure and simple, is not what he de-
mands, and not one of them will dare
to meet this challenge.
This demand for free coinage is a
cover intended to conceal the true pur-
pose Of those who ask it. Most of those
who support this measure have been
deceived and misled. Letsuch men put
the question to any owner of silver
mines, to any senator or representative
in congress or to any and every candi-
date on the free coinage platform in
the following terms:
"If we grant free or unlimited coin
age, without charge for the coming,
will you demand nothing more?" Not
a man who knows what the true pur-
pose is will answer Eyes" to that ques-
tion.-Edward Atkinson.

The great disparity between the
banking facilities is seen at a glance.
The six New England states, with an
estimated population (1S96) of $780,
900, possess nearly $40 per capita; the
10 southern states, with 10000, 900 pop
ulation, show barely SIS per capita, or
222 per cent. of the former. Including
savings banks and loan and trust COM
panies the ratio is materially reduced,
the south showing only seven per cent.
of the amount given for New England.
Analysing the items given in the last
column, as stated in the comptroller's
table, it is found that the states and ter
ritories representing 70 per cent. of the
population have less than 33 per cent. of
the entire banking power, estimated at

American Presbyterianism.

The Tennessee centennial man
agement set apart Thursday,
October 2Sth,as Presbyterian day,
which was grateful tribute to a
religious body which has played q
conspicuous part in shaping the
early affairs of this country.
A writer in the Nashville Amer
lean, commenting upon the influ-
ence of the Presbyterian church
upon the early life of this coun
try, makes the following observa-
ton:
The Presbyterian in colonial
days contained a large element
of Scotch Irish, who were either
banished from their homes or be-
came voluntary exiles to escape
intolerable expressions. They
brought with them hatred of
despotism and unquenchable
thirstfor liberty. 1t ia not sur
prising, therefore, that as Ban
croft says, "the first voice pub
licly raised in America to dissolve
all connection with Great Britain
came from the Scotch Irish Pres.
byterians." The first body to de-
clare for open resistance WAS the
Presbyterian synod Of Philadel-
phia, and the first declaration of
Independence was that put forth
by the Presbyterlans Of Mecklen-
burg county, n. G. Having help
cd to precipitate the conflict, they
helped to fight it out. In the bat
tie of the Cowpens General Nor
gan. who commanded, and Gener-
al Pickens, who made all arrange
ments for battle, were Presbyte-
rian elders, "and nearly all under
their command says a trustwor-
thy writer, Wv ere presby terians. -
In the battle of Kings moua-
tain Co'onels Campbells, WI
liems, Cleveland, Shelby, Sewer,
Hamilton and Major Jones we're
all PRESBYTERIAN elders, and the
bodies OF their troops were col
lected from Presb by terian settle
ments." These two battles were
of no mean Importance. because
they marked the turn OF the tide
in war. 1t would entitle the Pres
byterians to some recognition on
an occasion like this to mention
the one fact that "Old Hickory"
ended his great career as an elder
In the Presbyterian church. He
was a typical Scotch. .Irishman,
we'll fitted when once turned in
the right direction to illustrate
the perseverance, of the saints.
Just after his death two of his
friends met on the streets of New
York City. One mentioned the
sad event to the other, and asked
whether he supposed Jackson had
gone to heaven. "Set it down"
was the reply, "that if he said
he was going to Heaven he has
gone there"
