 LENT EXHIBITION YESTERDAY

Mr and Mrs. Topperwein, the $20,- 900 pair of crack shots, employed by an arms company, were here yester- day and gave a very interesting eX- hibition of trick and expert shooting at the grounds of the Prescott Gun Club.
 The wonderful craftsmanship of this pair was shown by various eXhi- bitions they gave with shot gun, rifle and revolvers. They demonstrated the efficiency of the high power ex- plosive bullet used in big game rifle and along the line to the excellent results obtained by use of a .22 cali bre pistol at target. The former dem onstraticn was made with a rifle using the ,551 cartridge, the target being a can of tomatoes thrown into the air, which was struck the first shot and nothing left of it-including the label about the tin-but a small piece of tin.
 Members of the Prescott Gun Club participated in the shooting and the following is the score:
