DIANA OF THE TRAPS.

The Du Pont Powder Company OF
Wilmington, Delaware, has just issued
a very artistic and interesting booklet
entitled DIANA OF THE TRAPS. e.
This booklet describes trapshooting
as a most enjoyable and beneficial out
door sport for women, and contains
many attractive illustrations and inter-
esting stories by women trapshooters.
Most people believe that trapshoot-
ing is sport exclusively for men, and
that it is not suited to women. DIANA
OF THE TRAPS describes trapshoot-
ing as clean, healthful sport and one
that can be enjoyed by the most re-
fined, delicate and sensitive woman
Or girl.
The booklet also gives a history of

ship Oregon began the most remark
able long distance race against time
in all naval history. On, this date in
1898 it left San Francisco to join the
warships in Atlantic waters. There
was an effort to surround the Oregon's
movements with secrecy. but every
body guessed her mission and bets
were made on the success of the trip.
Tension relaxed for a time after the
Oregon appeared at Callao, Feru, her
first stop, but 1t became the more
acute as she steamed southwark to-
ward the Straits 81 Magellan, where
Spanish torpedo boat lurked and
tempestuous seas made the passing

days out of San Frapcisco the Oregon
