Miss Annie Oakley, who made so many friends while before the American public by her graceful and modest demeanor, as well as by her genuine skill as a shot with gun, rifle, and pistol, is winning gold and fame in England, where she is showing our British cousins how she has mastered those weapons. She lately gave an exhibition before the royal family, and so delighted them that they complimented her in the most lavish manner. Not only has she pleased peer and peasant, but the sturdy knights of the quill seem to be thoroughly charmed with her exhibition, and bestow upon her, through the columns of the press, unstinted praise.
