trio plant, and Mr.. Trafford was In
structed to recommend a suitable
man, to be paid at q salary of not
more than 5000 a year. Mr. Traf-
ford was also instructed TO advertise

Eineer be instructed to plant shade

CHAMPIONSHIP or
CAPITOL DISPUTED
SHAREHOLDERS UNION ENJOYS
a LITTLE PRACTICE AT A
LIVE PIGEON.

Though the matter is still in dispute
Chief Clerk J. NJ. Hayes, Jr, OF the
secretary of the Commonwealth's Of
flee, contends that he is the champion
marksman OF the State capitol, and
proposes to lay a wager that he can
substantiate his claim against any and
all corners. the attaches OF the adJu-
tant generals Office only being eX-
cepted,
The misunderstanding, II It can be
termed that, came about Ia this man
ner Yesterday afternoon, when the
daily grind Ct routine under the big
dome was about at an end, q plump
squad for some reason known only to
Itself. sought refuge on n cornice of
one Of the big columns OF the portico,
up under the caves. and directly in
line with the windows Of Secretary
James office. Some one sighted the
we'll fed pigeon; some one else pro-
duced a rife, and n trusty messenger
was sent for two boxes OF cartridges.
The arsenal well stocked, the dozen
attaches, several having been attract
sd from other Offices. hlazed away.
Fifty rounds thew fired at the tnno-
cent bird. the sharpshooters taking
turns at the range, and the squab once
or twice turned her head coyly in the
direction of the window as II wonder
ing what all the fuss was about BY
ISLANDERS asserted that they detected
a smile playing about the squad
contsuance.
Some time after the supply of am
munition had been exhausted and the
somewhat cha grined members Of the
Shareholders union had returned 10
their tasks, the target calmly arose,
stretched herself after the pleasant
doze, and flew calmly down to the
porch below. one of the missiles
grazed her breast and produced
trthlng wound from which. by actual
count. one drop OF blood oozed, hut
that was all, and Chief Clerk Hayes
says his one shot wrought that havoc.
Some Of the other sharpshooters dis
pute that claim and it is likely that
the dispute will be setted at some
future date. possibly with a cow as
target at twenty PAGES.
