The Rifle.

MISS ANNIE OAKLEY, the crack shot of the Wild-West Show, now in London, gave a private performance at Nothing Hill Gun Club last month, before the members and a select circle of their friends. The programme, including several marvellous feats with the rifle and shot-gun, was gone through in fine style, and gave the greatest satification to the many excellent shots who had assembled to witness it. At the end of the regular programme a member threw a shilling in the air which Miss Oakley hit with a bullet.

The president of the club presented Miss Oakley with an extremely handsome and valuable gold medal.
