The SHOTS THAT hit

Elias Summers proved the win
ner in the first of the series of the
National Sportsman Cup shoots,
held on the rife range, near the
High School, Sunday afternoon.
His score was twenty, out of
possible fifty points. J. T. Proffitt
was second, with seventeen TO his
credit. DR.. E. B. Thompson and
J. U. Nanney were next in order,
with fifteen points each.
This is the first time many of the
marksmen had ever tested their
skill at the long range of one
thousand yards, consequently the
ease with which the entire target
could be missed even by the best
shots in the club, proved source
of considerable surprise to rihemen
and spectators alike. Many are
now inclined to doubt the stories
so often heard of deer killed ''at a
thousand yards" Some of them
would probably like to be shown
that an elephant, or even a battle
ship could be hit at this range un-
less by accident:
The second shoot for this beau>
