An exhibition of fancy shooting
win be given this afternoon at Pal
rnetto Beach, when Mr.. and Mrs.
Adolph Toppeerwein, of the Winches-
ter Arms Company, will give dis
play of expert fancy shooting. The
exhibition is free to the public and
no admission win be charged.
Remarkable feats by Mr.. Topper
vein with the rifle, were his scoring
of IS out Of 100 two and a half inch
targets thrown into the air while rid
ing at full speed in an automobile;
and the breaking of 3,507 targets
without miss at the worlds fair in
St. Louis.
Mr.. Topperwein is the originator
of many fancy and trick shots and
also of the feat of drawing the heads
of Indian chiefs and other. pictures
with bullets shot from a rifle. Rifle
shooting is not his only requirement,
as he does wonderful work also with
revolver, pistol and shotgun.
At the Pacific Coast handicap, held
at Seattle in 1910, Mrs. Topperwein
won high general average over a
large field Of the best shots of the
Pacific Coast and Canada. On the
first day of the tournament, she made
the remarkable score of 195x200
which included 20 doubles, and on the
final day she broke the entire pro-
gram of 100 singles straight.
During the year 1913, l1rs. Top
perwein shot at 10000 targets, scor-
ing over 95 per cent. She made
straight runs of 100 nine times and
one run of 165. Shooting for the
Denver Post trophy in a gale of wind
she scored 94x100, from the 21-yarc
mark. At the eastern handicap, sht
T outshot the field of over $50 shooters
by scoring 98x10O from 10 yards; anc
closing her seasons work at the state
fair in Phoenix, Ariz., she scored fol
the three days shooting, the mag
/ nificent total of 397x405 targets; ant
in a special handicap event, standing
at the 23-yard mark, she broke 9:
targets out of 100. Mrs. Topperweir
is the only woman in the world VIII,
ever had the honor to qualify as /
national marksman in oper competi
ton, shooting at 200, 800 and 5O'
yards with military rifle.

YACHT IN
PORT ON A VISIT

En- route from Houston, Texas, to
Havana and other points, the beauti-
full private yacht Augusta Ii IN port
for short stay, and win probably
remain for several days yet. The
yacht left Houston on November /,
and an extended cruise is in prospect.
The Augusta is owned by C. G,
Pilot, a prominent business man of
Houston, and is in command of Capt.
O'Neal, an experienced navigator, who
has had charge of many palatial
craft. The boat is 103 feet in length,
with a beam of 16 feet. Gasoline rs
used as fuel. A yacht of beautiful
lines, the Augusta has attracted con-
siderable attention since occupying 3
berth at Baylen wharf.
Aboard the yacht are Norman
Pilot, son of the owner, and bride,
and brother of the latetr and his
wife. Mrs. Pilot and Mr.. Campbell
her brother, are daughter and son re-
spectively of Mayor Campbell OF
Houston, and they make up a very
congenial party. The marriage OF
Mr.. Pilot and Miss Campbell was
quite society event last month in
Houston.
While here, the party is spending
a great deal of their time at the San
ed with the city and its many, OBJ
Carlos hotel, and they appear delight
jects of interest, all of which have
attracted them very much.
The stay of the Augusta has beer
extended because of the reported
storm in the caribbean sea. Capt
ONeal stated last night that he il

his yacht and party in any disturb
ances as rumored in the weather bu'
rcau's bulletins.
Capt. O'Neal was pleased with tht
city of Pensacola. 'You have a very
pretty city here, and am charmed
with it," he said. He brought {

in September of that year. It is ;

EXTENSIONS OF
WEATHER BUREAU


The agricultural appropriation set
for the fiscal year ending June 80,
1917, was approved by the president
on August II, 1916. It appropri-
ates $24,948,852 for continuing the
work of the department and carrying
out new legislation. This is an in
crease of $1,977,O70 over the appro-
priation for the fiscal year 1916; but
this total does not include $500, 900
for printing and binding and a num-
Der of larger sums for many other
specially indicated purposes.
The appropriation for the weather
bureau is sta, 260, an increase of
$81 ,210 over the appropriation for
1915-16. Of this increase $50, 900 will
be used in extending the weather and
storm warning service in the vicinity
of the Panama Canal and various
points in the Caribbean sea and gulf
regions. The number of points from
which reports or hurricane conditions
are obtained will be increased, there
by making possible the earlier and
more complete preparation and dis
semination of warnings of the ap-
preach Of these destructive storms.
The extension of the service, in adj
dition to its value to the residents of
the southern states, it is believed, will
be of increasing value to the ships
using the Panama Canal. The wealth
er bureau also will be able to issue
for southern waters, forecasts of gen.
eral wind and weather conditions and
their changes from day to day. These
should be of special value to marine
commerce passing to and from the
canal. These warnings will be trans
mitted as in the past, to ships at sea
by wireless telegraphy in co-opera-
ton with the naval communication
station at Radio, Va, and Key West,
Fla.
An increase of $4,000 permits the
establishment of additional stations
and the better organization of wealth
er observation work in Alaska. Tele-
, graphic observations and reports
which have important bearing on the
preparation of general weather and
storm forecasts for the United States
are secured from the region. Addi-
tional data to determine and estab-
fish the climatic conditions of this
great region with its growing agri-
cultural and commercial interests also
| will be collected.
A further increase of $4,000 viii
be used in extending the river anc
flood service and the frost-warninl
| service.
The new act also contains provision
for a new weather bureau building Al
Cape Henry, Va, one of the mos
important coastal stations of thu
weather bureau. The new building
will be erected at point commanding
full view of the fairway of vessels
which will greatly facilitate its use
i fulness in observing and reporting
the vessels passing in and out of tn
capes.

m.)-According to Governor
Morehead, after a conference with
General Hall this morning, there will
be no extra session of the Nebraska
legislature for the purpose of appro-
priating funds for expenses Of mo-
bilizing the guard. In <the first
place." said the governor, I'VE do not
know how much we wsuld have to
have and in the second place the gov
ernment will probably pay most Of
it" A Lincoln banker called on the
governor soon after General Hall left
and said that the state need not go
to the expense of an extra session, for
his bank would let the state have all
the money necessary and take a
chance on the legislature.
