CHAMPION WOMAN TRAP
SHOOTER OF AMERICA

Mrs. Nellie Bennett, champion wo
man trap shooter of America and the
only woman representative of a pow
der company in the United States, and
perhaps, in the world. is in Albuquer-
que in the interest of the Laughlin-
Rand Powder company, makers OF the
famous Dupont powder, and will re-
main until tomorrow, giving an exhib-
ition of her prowess with the shot
gun tomorrow afternoon at the Albu-
querque Gun clubs grounds at Trac-
tion park, in competition with some of
the local crack shots.
Mrs. Bennett is the widow of A. L..
Bennett the famous western crack
trap shooter, who, previous to his
death three years ago, was perhaps
one OF the best known marksmen in
the west, and has proved herself an
adapt pupil of her famous husband.
After his death she took up her pres.
ent line Of work as a means of gain
ing a livelihood and has since gained
a national reputation. Her best rec
ord is LAP out OF a possible 150, and
She has often been known to make 25
straight and AZ and AS out of a pos
sible 50.
Mrs. Bennett has for her territory
the entire United States, and has cap
tured many medals and prizes for her
splendid work with the shot gun and
rifle. On her left hand she wears a
beautiful diamond won at the Calumet
club shoot in Chicago some time ago
when she defeated the then champion
woman shot of America.

nett, In conversation with a represent
ative of The Evening Citizen, when

Of my record of never having ben de

The exhibition shoot tomorrow af-

CHILD LABOR BEFORE
OHIO LEGISLATURE

Cleveland, Ohio, March 1.-THE
public hearing before the house com
mittee on labor. on the Reynolds la
Dor bill opened here today. The la
Dor organizations are particularly in
terested in the measure, which raises
the age of children that may be EN-

certificates are produced stating tnat
their parents are dependent on their
support, and alsfo limiting to eight

der sixteen are allowed to be EN-.
ployed.
The bill also provides for the EN-
ployment of eight female inspectors
of workshops and factories, TO assist
the present force of male inspectors
Every labor organization in the state
is favoring the bill and many of the
organizations will work with great en-
ergy for the passage of the bill. The
| labor organizations are also interest
| ed in a number of other bills, touch
! ing upon labor questions, but none OF
them are considered as important as

Special to Evening Citizen.
Washington, March 12.-The only
thing that can be done is for the house
to stand pat and refuse to concur in
the senate amendment and get it into
conference, then the only question is
whether the senate will recede from
its amendments. This is all that can
be done at present.
The bill came over TO the house to-
day. 1t lies on the speakers desk
until the 18th, to await the return OF
absent members. 1t may go out to
the committee on territories because
of amendments. without vote. A
caucus will be held Wednesday to try
to agree not to concur. Think the
house will refuse to concur; then It
will go to conference and may die
there or may pass with the first For
aker amendment, giving the entire de-
cision to Arizona.
The supreme court has dismissed

PRESIDENT OF THE
CALEDONlAN COAL CO.
SAYS HE KNOWS NOTHING OF A
COMPROMISE - ADMITS THAT
DEFENDANTS CAN COMPRO-
MISE If THEY WISH, AND THE
TERMS ARE SUITABLE TO BOTH
SIDES,

Alexander Bowie, president OF the
Caledonian Coal company, was in the
city Saturday night, for a short time,
returning TO Gallup the same night.
While here Mr. Bowie stated that as
far as he knew there would be no set
tlement Of the famous Caledonian re-
bate case outside Of the courts.
However" continued Mr. Bowie,
I'VE have no way of knowing what the
other side intends doing and il may be
that they will compromise the case.
As was stated in these columns,
Saturday, il was rumored that the
case would never be decided by the
courts, but that CGEPromise would
be effected leio:" the case came TO
trial.
A prominent attorney, who Is tamil
lar with the case, and who enjoys the
confidence Of the defendants lawyers,
stated that in his opinion the case
would be settled out of court.
THE CaledOnian people will accep;
a compromise, if the terms suit them,
said a lawyer, in close touch with the
plaintiffs, but whether such a com
promise has been offered them or not
| do not know, although / have heard
It rumored that they Intended seeking
| compromise
Neither side was prepared 10 say
| that Attorney Neil b Field was IN
New York with this end in view, al
though a representative Of the defend
ants in the now famous case said
that il was his opinion that com
promise would eventually be effected
/ out side of the court room.
If they give us the terms We asked
4 for iH~ the suit" said Mr. Bowie
there would naturally be no further
cause for action, but whether they in
| tend to do this or not you are in a
position to know as we'll as l. AT pres
ent we know nothing OF any efforts al
