Cincinnati Rifle Association. 
THE following scores were made in regular compe- 
tition by members of this Association at Four-Mile 
House, Reading Road, Feb. 11. Conditions were 200yds. 
offhand, at the standard American target. Roberts was 
again champion for. the day with a score of 90. Payne 
was high man on the honor target with 28 points. Mr. 
R. W. Hans Seitz was duly elected to membership and 
seems quite enthusiastic. His scores are quite favorable 
for a beginner with a strange rifle. The scores: 

Roberts ..... 90 86 82 82 81 Sr Ofer eee. ee 82 79 78 76 75

Mr. Odell’s scores deserve especial mention, eine to 
their steadiness. He only fired 50 shots and succeeded in 
making a record for himself, \making an average of 85, 
all but one-fifth of a point. "He is one of our youngest 
members. 
PUBLISHERS’ DEPARTMENT. 
Proctor’s Fifth Avenue Theatre. 
In a few weeks Mr. Proctor will produce at his popu- 
Jar Broadway Theatre—the Fifth Avenue—that very suc- 
cessful play, “The Prisoner of Zenda,’ which up to this 
time has never been presented at popular prices. Every 
care will be taken to make the production rank with 
those notable among this season’s memorable revivals. 
Every season Mr. Proctor presents a new play at in- 
tervals with his All-Star Players at the Fifth Avenue 
Theatre, and the week of Feb. 26, he has selected for 
production Mrs. De Mille’s ‘“‘The Missourians,’ which 
will at that time be given its first presentation on the 
stage. A great deal is expected of it, as it is a_com- 
panion piece to two popular plays, “The Squaw Man” 
and “Arizona.” 
There is nothing so important to the sportsman as the 
clothing that he wears. The outdoor man cares not 
greatly how he looks, but he does want to be warm and 
dry, and to have his clothes fit him easily. These ad- 
vantages are claimed for the Duxbak Sportsman’s Cloth- 
ing, one of the uses of which is implied in its name. 
This clothing, made for men and women alike, is guar- 
anteed as to its fit, its finish and its waterproof. qualities.
