REMARKABLE WORKMANSHIP.
Pennsylvania Who Depends on Sense
of Accuracy Alone.

philadelphia Press.l
There resides in Union county the fin
est all-round gentleman shot, perhaps,
in the world He can execute marvels
with a gun. He is a wealthy, active bus
mess man and his name is C. X. Sober.
Mr. Sober never exhibited his skill for
money. Occasionally he gives private
exhibition FOR the benefit of his friends,
and once in great while at the urgent
solicitati ton of other friends he has Civ
en- public displays of his craftsmanship,
hut never for profit
A couple of weeks ago Mr.. Sober. who
i, a member of the state game and fish
| friends who had neved seen him shoot,
agreed to give a private exhibition. I;
took place on the fair grounds here at

dozen gentlemen and the assistants who
worked the traps present. 1t was raw.
blustery day. with a marrow piercing
wind blowing from the west. an over

The feature of Mr.. Sober's marksman-
ship is his ability to fasten all sorts of
obstacles on his gun barrel. preventing
any opportunity of sighting" an object,
and then killing birds with the same
ease and certainty that he would We're
he enabled to take a sight" Out of
sixteen pigeons fired at only one was
missed. and this failure was largely due
to the manner In which the trap was
sprung In the exhibition six different
articles We're used as handicaps. The
first was small wooden keg. After this
a key of ten gallons capacity was push
ed on the gun barrel thru holes bored
for the purpose. In none of the exhibit
ton shots save in the first one with the
small key, was Mr.. Sober enabled to fire
from the shoulder All the rest of the
firing was done from elbow to thigh. "A
larger keg, half-barrel, was next put
on the gun barrel, and then the great
est difficulty appeared when -four bar
rel was used To hold these articles
steady it was necessary to fasten a
piece Of rope around them, tied at each
end of the gun stock. But each shot was
successfully made, and then, to demon
strate what further obstacles could be
overcome by his unerring workmanship
Mr.. Sober piled soap box on top of the
-four barrel and fired at the bird with
the gun stock planted against the inner
side of his right thigh He grassed his
bird instantly.
Following this remarkable exhibition
in which instinct of direction alone
seemed to direct his shots. Mr.. Sober

received the usual letter Of discharge.
He took his case to the superintend-
ent and was reinstated. but he learned
to his entire satisfaction that he had
been followed from Omaha to North
Platte and back three times before he
was caught. He even heard his CONVEX

Omaha II was only few nights ago
that the crew of a freight, in Omaha,
went to supper away out in the sub
urbs and on the way they stopped to
have drink. When they returned
each man got his envelope and new
crew was already aboard the train,
ready to take it out. The rule is being
enforced and it's one the men can't
kick on unless they insist upon the priv
ilege OF doing as they please while off
duty.
But Superintendent Burt will not
countenance drinking. He is a church
man and only recently he played sew
eral piano collections at Presbyterian
church concert in Omaha. He is deter
mined to break up drinking on the u.

of the besth railroad employees hope he
will succeed in his work"
Superintendent w. L. Park. of Chey

union depot. ready to simultaneously
eat supper and start for home when
asked about rule 207
Rule 207 will not be changed, except
possibly the number of it, you may be
sure of that" he said. I don't believe
as many as 200 men have been dis
charged for violation of 1t in the last
thirty or forty days, but the number is
large. In nearly all cases the men have
been reprimanded two or three times
before being dismissed
THE enforcement of the rule has done
great good. 1t has closed several sa-
Icons in Wyoming and has kept money

needed it. They, az we'll as we, now

In closing he urged the citizens to agi-

the city councilmen ready to take adj

every citizen to tell his councilman

tons.

A circular that will be issued today

The cause for the discontinuance of the
