EXPERT MARKSMEN
GIVE EXHIBITION

The most sensational bit of fancy
and trick shooting ever seen in PEN
dleton was witnessed by nearly 200 in
terested and enthusiastic spectators
this morning. Mr. and Mrs. Adolph
Topperwein of San Antonio, Texas
were the performers and the exhibit
tion was given on the north hill lust
back of the Sturgis residence. They
were demonstrating the arms and
ammunition of the Winchester Re-
peating Arms company and the DEM
onstration was under the auspices of
La Dow & Peterson, who carry full
line of the Winchester goods.
Though the shooting was done on
rocky hillside, with the worst kind
of a background and sharp rocks for
footing, the exhibition was marvellous
in the extreme. Ordinary ball cart
ridges were used in rifle and pistol.
while the ammunition used in the
shotguns was also the ordinary kind,
such as one buys at the store
Seemingly impossible shots were
made by both Mr.. and Mrs. Topper
vein with the revolver, the gun be-
ing held in all kinds of positions. They
also made some pretty shots by using
the mirror. Apples, potatoes. bits of
brick, marbles of assorted colors and
sizes, washers and other objects were
broken without difficulty .singly and
in groups when tossed into the air.
Cartridge shells were also punctured

aviator, on the afternoon of October

The regular weekly band concert
will be given in the fair pavilion at
s o'clock this evening as usual. The
fact that the carnival company has
moved from the baseball park to the
depot grounds will not be permitted
to interfere with the concert, in fact
it will probably add to the attendance
at both attractions.
Director Carruth has arranged an
other excellent program and says that
the members of the United Orchestra
will be equal to the occasion. In
some particulars tonights program
will probably be superior to the one
rendered last week and which was

ment.

Grand Island, Neb., July 27.-Look-
ing crushed, William Jennings Bryan
stood on the floor of the democratic
state convention early this morning
after he had lost the fight for control
of his party in Nebraska, and init
mated that he would not make any
further attempts TO direct democratic
affairs. Bryan said afterwards that
he expected defeat but expected to
win compromise. The general
concensus of opinion is that Bryan's
leadership days are over.
The platform adopted condemns the
tariff bill, Taft's administration, and
recommends a daylight liquor law in
Butno county, the option plank for
which Bryan fought.
The arraignment of the present re-
publican administration is the strong
feature of the platform as it per-
tains to national issues. II strongly
endorses the last national democratic
platform and the present state ad-
ministration and continues:
I'VE congratulate the party upon
the widespread revival of democratic
sentiment which gives promise Of a
democratic victory
I'VE congratulate the country that
democratic opposition has thus far
succeeded in defeating the iniuuitous
ship subsidy.
1--WE recognize in the many excess
sive rates on such favored products as
steel. wooden goods, rubber. lumber
and others. the return the republican
politicians are making to the blund-
ering trusts for campaign contribu-
tions two years ago.
Condemn President.
I'VE condemn the president for sur
rendering to Aldrich and Cannon the
control of tariff revision and for using
his patronage 10 force unwilling con-
gressmen of the republican party to
accept their dictation. We deplore the
presidents folly and weakness in sur
rounding himself with a cabinet of
trust advisers. We favor the conser-
walton Of the natural resources Of the
country and condemn the policy un-
der which favored capitalists and po-
litical syndicates secure control OF
water power. coal mines and other
sources Of the nations wealth in the
states and in Alaska unrestrained
and apparently favored by the present
national administration.
1--WE condemn the president for re-
tanning in his cabinet the close friend
and former attorney for the powerful
and unscrupulous syndicate caught IN
the very act of plundering.
I'VE join the democrats everywhere
in pledging the party to the cause ot
tariff reform. economy and simplic-
ity in government. trust prosecution
and the ratification Of the income tax
amendment"
The attitude of many Of Mr.. Bry-
ans former heutenants toward him
was evidenced in speeches OF several
who addressed the convention after
him. His reference to "assassins" in
the party was frequently referred to
and as each speaker denounced his
present position the cheers of the del
egates showed that the appeal OF Mr.
Bryan had been Intellectual. The vote
BY which his county option plank was
rejected was not taken until after
midnight. II was decisivelv against
the acceptance of the measure. Mr..
Bryan made no comment after the
vote and in answer to questions re-
ferred to his speech in which ne pro-
claimed his fealty to the democratic
party and its platform.
