A SHOOTING MATCH
At END OF MONTH
Prominent Professionals and
Amateurs to Compete
At Local Event.

Preparations are well under way for
the holding of the biggest event ever
undertaken by the Richmond Gun club
of this city. 1t will be a shooting
match on July % at the fairgrounds,
and will attract professional and anna
teur shooters from Indianapolis, Day
ton and other large cities as well as
bringing out large crowd of local
gunners and spectators. A feature of
the shoot will be the presence of c.
A. Young, who won the national pro-
fessional championship recently at
Dayton.
The program for the event will be
completed by Monday, it Is thought,
and extensive advertisement of the
shooting match will be made. At least
one thousand programs will be mailed,
1t was stated by Mr.. Harter, a mem
Der of the gun club, and 1t is hoped
to send out more than that number.
Seventy-five Entries.
Seventy-five professional and anna
teur shooters will be present, and
list of prizes is now being arranged.
The match will consist of trap shoot
ing, but as the program is not finished
full details of the event can not be
given. Any amateur is eligible to
compete for the prizes. 1t has been
generally thought that only members
of the club were permitted to partici-
pate in the match, but this is mis-
taken idea, club members say.
C. A. Young is wellknown shot,
and at the Dayton match brought
down 1877 out of 200 birds, defeating
for honors all his opponents and win
ming the championship. Young lives
in Springfield, o., and is travelling
demonstration for the Peter Cartridge
company of Cincinnati.
The Gun club will also give shoot
ing match Friday afternoon, and any
one is eligible to participate. No
prizes will be given the winners, and
the sport will be enjoyed for the sake
OF competition only. The fourth be-
ing holiday, large crowd of people
is expected to be present. Several
local shots will be on hand to make
things interesting.

CRAIG WAS GIVEN
RELEASE ON BOND
"Two-Bits" Shilling Is to Be
Tried in Randolph
County.

William Clendenin of this city today
furnished $500 bond for T. L. Craig,
who has been confined in the county
Jail awaiting trial for burglarizing rail-
road cars in the vicinity OF Fountain
City and Ridgeville. Craig lived in this
city up to a few months ago when he
moved to FIT Wayne. Samuel Miller
who helped Craig and others to rob the
cars was released on bond several
days ago.
Both men are said to be responsible
for the many petty thefts on cars en-
route from Fit. Wayne to Cincinnati.
The detectives have secured enough
evidence against them to warrant a
conviction.
Two Bits" Shilling of Ridgeville
who acted as fence" for the car rob-
bers will be tried in Randolph county.
Shilling bought goods of the men. The
FIT. Wayne fence" will soon be locat-
ed. the railroad special agents state.
1t is probable that the men who pur-
chased the stolen property will appear
against Craig and Miller if they enter
a plea of not guilty.

A BLOW At JOHNSON
National News Association


CHICAGO, July 3.-The United
States government today was planning
a joke upon Jack Johnson, negro pu-
gilist, and European fight promoters
and patrons. Every one who pays ad-
mission fee to see Johnson fight in
Europe may be contributing to the
treasury of the U. S.
Federal Judge Carpenter was asked
today to rule on a motion of the Dis
trict attorneys office to forfeit the
100000 bond under which Johnson was
released while awaiting trial on the
charge Of trafficking in white women.
The $4,000 is still in effect, according
to the governments attorneys because
IL indictments against him have not
been disposed of by the court. He was
convicted on one charge of white sla-
very and an additional bond of Sic, 900
was approved pending his appeal. The
100000 personal bond does not sched-
ule any property and if Judge Carpen-
ter forfeits 1t, the government can
seize the pugilists $4,000 home which
is in his mothers name, and any mon
ey he may earn while fighting abroad.
