FANCY RIFLE SHOOTING. There was a
large gathering of interested spectators in
the j. Y. Cottrell shipyard last Friday
afternoon to witness the wonderful rifle
shooting of Mrs. F. E. Butler, better known
perhaps as Annie Butler, under which
name she travelled the world over with
Buffalo Bills Wild West Show. She has as
a memento of her visit to England, medal
| presented her by King Edward, inscribed
"You are the best shot l have ever seen -
All who witnessed the wonderful shooting
Friday afternoon will say likewise. Small
metal discs, potatoes, piece of coal, cent,
and other objects, were thrown into the air
and hit with the rifle ball. Cards held in
the hand of Mr.. Butler were perforated with
bullets and given to the spectators as
souvenirs of the occasion. Before the
shooting began Mr.. Butler stated that the
exhibition was given here through the
courtesy of Mr.. Charles Bradbury, one OF
the best spoTtSmen in America, and that its
object was to demonstrate the superiority
of the L NJ. c. cartridges, which are sold
by our local dealers. After the exhibition
shooting at clay pigeons was in order, in
which some of our local mark >men partic-
pated.
