Annie Oakley (Mrs. Frank E. Butler), whose wonder¬ 
ful skill with the shotgun and rifle is a marvel of attain¬ 
ment, was in Chicago last week, her presence there hav¬ 
ing to’ do with her liber suit against a leading daily for the 
heartless libel published by it in 1903 concerning her. 
It will be recalled to memory that a woman arrested in 
Chicago for intoxication- gave her name as Annie 
Oakley, whereupon a number of papers published an 
enlarged version of the matter, proclaiming that the 
unfortunate woman was Annie Oakley, champion shot 
of the world. As a matter of fact, the real Annie 
Oakley was in the East at the time. The manner in 
which several juries have returned a verdict in her 
favor, in suits against the libelers, is but a small repara¬ 
tion for the anguish and the injured health she has suf¬ 
fered consequent to the libels.
