179THE ITEM. On September 26th, at Pittsburg, there was a live pigeon match between Miss Annie Oakley and John Lovatt, of [Allegheny?]; it took place at Exposition Park before a few invited guests. William McCrickart, of the Herron Hill Gun Club, acted as referee, and S. S. D. [Thompson?] trap puller. Miss Oakley won the contest, killing 26 birds out of 30 at 25 yards. Mr. Lovatt killed 17 out of 28 birds, at 30 yards. The wind was strong and the birds good. Miss Oakley appears this week in Philadelphia with Tony Pastor's troupe, and will receive a specially cordial welcome, as she is a great favorite. | 179 |
