The shoot by the champions, which took place at Pickett Springs yesterday, calls to mind the fact that the Remington Typewriters (the standard of the world) are made at Ilion. N. Y, where Reming- ton guns are manufactured, which were used by the "crack'' shots, though made in separate factories. The capacity of the Typewriter factory has recently been doubled, and the output Is machine a minute, which does not meet the demand
