ANNIE OAKLEY'S GREAT FEAT.

Miss Annie Oakley, the "Police Gazette" female champion wing shot of the world, is accomplishing some won, derful feats at pigeon shooting. At Camden, N. J., on Feb, 22- she figured in a match against Wm. Graham, the champion wing shot of England. Each shot at 50 pigeons, and Miss Oakley surprised the spectators by knocking over 47 out of the 50 shot at, and won the match by two birds, her opponent only killing 45. The birds shot at comprised many drivers, so that makes the feat more remarkable. It is doubtful if many of the wing shots who style themselves champions could kill 47 out of 50 in a match in which the number of birds are limited to 50.
