SCR00007.158CRACK SHOT AT GAME. What an English Sportsman Says of the Skill of Annie Oakley. A well known English sportsman, Mr. W. R. C. Clarke, writing in the London Field of re-cent date regarding the shooting abilities of Miss Annie Oakley, the American young lady now with Buffalo Bill's Wild West show in England, says concerning her shooting on game as well as pigeons and glass balls: "Miss Oakley was shoot-ing with me on Wednesday, Thurs-day and Friday last, and during those days she killed pheasants, partridges, hare and snipe, her shooting being wonderfully clean. The wretched state of the weather prevented her getting a shot at grouse, but judging from her shooting at the other game, there is little doubt that they would have stood but a poor chance before her. Not only did Miss Oakley in this, I understand, her first English game shooting, prove herself an exceptionally good shot, but also a plucky walker over heavy ground." | SCR00007.158CRACK SHOT AT GAME.
