Mr. Editor: 



Having read Mr. Moorehead's experience plating with gold, 

 silver and nickel, I feel it my duty to inform others of my success. 

 I sent for a plater and have more work than I can do. It is sur- 

 prising the spoons, castors and jewelry that people want plated. 

 The first week I cleared $37.10. and in three weeks $119.85, *nd my 

 wife has made about as I have. By addressing VV. H, Griffith & 

 Co., Zanesville, Ohio, you can tret circulars. A Plater only costs 

 $3.00. You can learn to use it in an hour Can plate large or 

 small articles, and can make money anywhere I now have a

DAYTON SHARPSHOOTERS. 



Dayton, Ohio, Sept. 23.— The big events among the shooters the 

 past week were the t\\ o days devoted to the targets by the rifle- 

 men. The Sharpshooters' annual king shoot on the Kennel Club 

 range waslargely attended, and the sport was maintained at high 

 tension through the annual medal contest of the Hibernian Rifles, 

 one of the crack military companies of the State. 



The Dayton Sharpshooters' Society was organized in the summer 

 of 1863, when the only arm in use was the squirrel rifle, and the 

 society has as regalia a squirrel-tail plume and the old powder 

 bora. And every year since the society has held a prize shoot in 

 the spring and king shoot in the fall. The gray-haired veterans 

 of the society to-day were the organizers of this sport twentv- 

 eight years ago. The original targets were life-sized figures of 

 kings, and the heart the center shot. Now the society uses six 

 square targets with white or black bullseyes, the center the size 

 of a silver quarter, and counts 24. then around that are 24 half- 

 inch rings. Col. Wm. F. Sanders won the crown at that first 

 shoot in 1863, and Julius Wehner first prize, with a clean score of 

 100 rings. 



Timber was cut away for a 200yd. range in the woods adjoining 

 the kennels, and there this 28th annual shoot was held Wednesday. 

 The firing sheds are on a knoll and the targets 200yds. to the east. 



Conditions of these contests are any rifle, muzzle rest, 5 shots 

 each, possible 120 rings, no restrictions as to sights or gauge:

P Kern 15 19 16 21 19- 90 F Huber ... 10 3 22 12 16- 63 



The contest being decided in favor of Chas. Whealen by a 

 score of 105, Mr. A. W. Kumler, president of the society with a 

 very neat brief speech presented the regalia to Mr. Whealen and 

 crowned him King of the Sharpshooters. Fred Hubor, who had 

 won the honor the year before by a score of 103, only scored 63 

 this time. About 80 other members of the society participated in 

 the match, but the scores scaled down to single figures. This is 

 the fourth time that Mr. Whealen has been the king shot, and 

 this last victory was won on his forty-sixth birthday anniversary. 



Following the convivial scene at the refreshment stand after the 

 ceremony of installation, came the free for all match, in which 

 there were over a hundred participants, 10 prizes, same conditions 

 as the king shoot, except 3 rings, possible 72:

Gns Sander 21 23 22-65 Henry Bergk 21 20 22—63 



Adolph Schwind was the winner of first prize. He had been king 

 rf the sharpshooters, and the contest between nim and Henn of 

 Tippecanoe, and Wheeler and Daniel Bergk was close and excit- 

 ing, and he had three other ex-kings chasing him close. With 

 first prize Schwind also won a silver cup and a fine split-bamboo 

 rod and reel for the best aggregate score in the membership and 

 free for all shoots, 173 rings in a possible 192. Wheeler next with 

 172. Most of the sharpshooters use Sharps rifles, .40cal. 



The next day the Hibernian riflemen held their annual medal 

 shoot on the same range, 200yds., 3 shots at rest, 2 off-hand, 24 

 rings, possible score 120, open sights. Springfield rifles, .45cal. In 

 5 practice shots Corpora! Dennis J. Madden scored 16, 16, 16, 17, 19; 

 total 84. Joseph F. Sloan 18, 19, 15, 11, 9; total 75. James Murphy 

 7, 4, £3, 14, 12; total 60. When th« medal shoot opened the scares 

 were not so good: Corporal Madden 18. Timothy Mclutee 14, J. F* 

 Sloan 24, C. P, Sweotman 24, J. M. Sweetman 0, Corporal Thomas 

 Shelly 8, Captain Pat J. Madden 0, Thomas Sherlock 0, Ed. J. Mc- 

 Kinney 0, J. P. O'Connell 7. Sloan and Sweetman shot off their 

 tie and Sloan won in 3 shots, score 56 to 35, and took the medal, 

 O'Connell, Sloan and Snerlock tried a Creedmoor match, 3 shots 

 each, possible 62, each man to advance to the firing point, knoel 

 and shoot. Sloan was again winner by score of 4.0, O'Connell 17, 

 Sherlock 0. Chris Sweetman challenged Sloan for a 5 shot match 

 and beat Sloan 48 to 34. Then they tried it over again and Chris 

 got left, Sloan finishing up the day with 5 shots, 58 rings. 



The trap-shooters wound up 11ip week's sport with an afternoon 

 at Lang's Road House. Four matches were shot, two at standard 

 targets and two at live birds, American Association rules.

 any club in eastern Pennsylvania to furnish the same number to 

 shoot for an expensive medal, or several medals. This will be de- 

 cided finally at the next meeting.— D. B. Jjupevbr, Sec'y.
