MAKES GOOD SCORES.
Indiana Girl of sixteen Has shooting
Records Which Have Already
Won Fame for Her.

Miss Edith, daughter of W. ID. Kick
el, of Auburn, Ind, is developing rare
skill with the gun, and promises
soon to equal the average sportsmen
of the world. Miss Rickefs expert
ence at the trap only dates from jan
uary l, this year, and her rapid adj
vancement has created sensation
among the lovers of that sport, and
her scores have been prominently
mentioned by the trade papers.
Miss Edith's mother died last sum-
mer, and since she has taken the ar
duous responsibility of keeping house
for her father and at the same time
attending school, she incidentally took
up the gun. She is but 16 years of age,
weighs 1876 pounds, and stands five
feet high. She is a splendid example
of the best type of Hoosier beauty.
Her large, dark eyes, black curly hair
and charming good nature make her
noticeable figure wherever she
goes.
Her love for the field sport came to
her like vision, and, after express
ing a fond desire to take up the gun,
she was the recipient from hef Ia
ther of an exceptionally good Win
chester, weighing 7% pounds. The
services of Mr.. Romeo Tarney, of Au-
burn, were also secured, and he be-
ing a marksman of recognized abil-
ity, soon instructed her in the art. Her
first experience at the trap was on
January s, 1900, when she shot at so
targets, ten yards rise, known trap
and angles, scoring 90 out of a pos
sible so.
On January 16, her second attempt
at the trap, she shot IS birds in

A ST. LOUIS IDEA.
Movable schooihouses Which, So One
Writer Puts Ii. Go in Search
of Scholars.

ST. Louis is congratulating itself just
now upon having successfully solved
difficult problem and upon the carrying
out of unique and interesting idea
In fact, she has wrought out new ver-
sion of the old story of Mohammed and
the mountain and new application
Like the mountain, it has been found
necessary that when scholars will not
come to the school, the school must OF
necessity go to the scholars. This, on
the face of it, might seem matter OF
extreme difficulty. As it is, however
the problem has been solved, and the
solution has been found not to be hard
to arrive at. 1t might be a little mis-
leading to say that the scholars are not
always desirous of going to school,
But when the school is too far distant
or there is not room enough in those
already existing for the accommoda'
ton of all who apply then it becomes

strings of 25 at 16 yards rise, scoring
first 25, II; second 25, IS, and third
25, 10, or a total of 54. On January
"a she shot at IS targets, breaking 81
at 16 yards rise, making straight
run of 80 from the tenth to the thir-
ty-ninth bird. On January 81 she shot
at so targets 81 yards, scoring 81. On
February she shot at so targets, un-
known angles, known trap. 16 yards
rise, and scoring 80 breaks. On this
day a stiff north breeze made the
flight of the targets very irregular.
The score which Miss Edith has
made in the field and marsh is also a
most excellent one and shows she now
possesses more skill than the average
sportsman. 1t is not an uncommon
occurrence for her to come in from
the marshes with plenty of game, es-
pecially rabbits. Recently she re-
ceived an English setter dog from the
well-known kennels of w. L. Lyons,
of Piqua, o., and to say that she now
thoroughly enjoys the sport is a mild
expression. 1t is predicted by To-
cal sportsmen that, with no fatality,
few months hence, Miss Edith will
rank among the best trap shooters of
her sex in America.

Use of Hot Water bags,

A hint in the use of hot water
bags is gained from a trained nurse.
Very little water is used, not more
than coffee cupful in a three-pint
bag, but it is very hot. Before the
stopper is screwed in the air is pressed
out Of the bag by quick smoothing
of the hand toward the opening; in
this way the weight is considerably
lessened. This particular nurse in at
tending a pneumonia patient kept in
use during the severity of the attack
six of the bags, three of them upon
the patient at one time. During pc
RODS of the critical two or three days
the bags were changed every Is min
utes, but so light were they that their
weight did not in the least incon-
venience the sufferer.

TOO LITTLE DEBATE.
Senator Green's Opinion of the Serv-
Ices Held In an Episcopal
Church.

Senator Benton, of Missouri, one of the
most conspicuous figures of the century in
either house of congress, had formidable
antagonist in Senator James Stephen Green.
Congressman Hit, according to the Chicago
Chronicle, relates this anecdote OF the two
gladiators:
Senator Green was not only man Of
splendd genius, but of charming manner.
He boarded at the National hotel where he
was popular with men and women. The
latter found out that the senator was not
much of a churchgoer and insisted that he
should mend his ways in that regard. One
Sunday he was late for dinner. The women
asked, him why
"I have been attending divine worship,
replied the senator, gravely.
ITO what church did you go, senator?
asked a woman.
az don't know answered the courtly
Missourian. 4 walked up the avenue, turned
up Fourth street and entered a church on
the left-hand side This was an Episcopal
church
"'How did you like the services? asked
another woman.
"It appeared to me- answered the sem
ator, that there was too much reading of the
journal and too little debate.
