Reports indicate that the charming Annie Oakley 
(Mrs. Frank E. Butler) is shooting frith the rare skill 
which has been the wonder of nations. From the Pitts¬ 
burg Chronicle-Telegraph, in a review of the entertain¬ 
ment at the Pittsburg Hippodrome, Forbes Field, July 
26, stated: “The two feature numbers of last night’s bill 
were the Mexican Miramba Quartet and their remarkable 
Mirambaphone, and Annie Oakley in her wing and riHe 
shooting * * * Miss Oakley was in rare form in her 
shooting act, and though the white snow of advancing 
years is settling gently on her hair, she seems to have 
lost none of her ability.”

July 26 and 27, the State amateur championship was won

Hyde Park Gun Club. 
Cincinnati, O.—There was a fair attendance at the 
shoot on July 30, eleven men participating. The weather 
was fine, but a stiff breeze blowing in the shooters’ 
faces, caused the targets to duck and soar in a very 
puzzling manner. The odd flights proved too much 
even for Charlie Young, and cut his score considerably, 
though in the last halt of the program he got down to 
business and broke 49, finishing with 91. Kugg got in 
second place with 85. Holaday, one of our 90 per cent, 
class, could only find 82 out ot his 100 . 
In the club trophy event Smith, De Mar and Rugg 
tied on 23 actual breaks. The Dupont trophy was taktn 
by Rugg with 46 breakes, De Mar having 43. 
The boys are getting together for the tri-State tourna¬ 
ment on Sept. 5 and 6 , and there will be a good at¬ 
tendance at the weekly shoots from now on. The trophy 
for the winner of the tri-State championship is a gold 
watch fob, with diamond setting, valued at $75, and 
worth the money. The programs are now in the printer’s 
hands, and will be mailed in a few days. The shoot 
is open to all, except that the trophy, to be shot for 
on the second day, at 100 targets, can only be won by 
a resident of Ohio, Kentucky or Indiana. Another good 
point in the program is that shooters eligible to com¬ 
pete for the trophy can do so without .any extra en¬ 
trance fee, or can shoot for targets only, and still win, if 
they break enough targets. The trophy is the gift of the 
club. 
The Chairman of the Tournament Committee, E. W. 
Rugg, Gerke Building, Cincinnati, will mail programs 
to any shooter who wishes one. 
More that twenty of the local shooters have promised 
to be present, and these, with the visitors who can be 
reckoned on to come, will make one of the best crowds 
which has attended a shoot in this locality since the 
old Cincinnatis quit doing business. Every one will be 
welcomed. The scores:
