At half-past 9 yesterday morning about fortjr men of Batavia Rifles who had not shot for their score, met at the armory and marched to the target on Ellicott stieet. Down in Mr. Royce’s farm and in a very pleasant grove near the target was the tent, in wh.cli were tables and eatables of all discription After stacking arms the company proceed ed in quads to shoot. In the course of the day over 700 rounds of amunition were fired. an a ccident . As one of the members had his gun aimed at the target, and as a long time had been used in talking between shots, Peter Thomas, who was marker in the pit with others, opened the trap door the very in stant that the bullet left the rifle, it struck the stone target and sent the pieces flying into the pit, strik ing him over the nose, barely es caping his eye and another piece hurrying itself in the flesh of the arm. It was a slight accident how ever and a narrow escape. The boys were gathered about the tent playing games of all kinds and having a good time generally. The day was terribly warm and as it was not very windy many a good shot was made. At the 100 and 150 yds, John Cummings made the best score— 21. At 300 and 400 yds. Messrs. Sam Mix and Chas, Thompson were a tie of 27. This shooting was done with a bull’s eye of 8 inches at 300 yds. and 22 inchcs at 400. At about 8 o’clock all fell in and came home lively, foaling happy over the good time they had had upon yesterdays Field Day. Our Merchants. T lieir D a ily T a lk w i t h T h e ir Patrons.

F o r th e L a d ies. _ New Fashion Books, Papers and Maga zines at Mackey’s News Boom . Mrs Jones, your friend serins to yearn for some missionary work. He wants money to accomplish it. IIo want« to lay a wager ot $500, of course expecting to win. Now, Mrs. Jones, as I said before, I was not brought up to lay wagers or gamble in any way, but would suggest that you raise a subscrip tion of $500, and send your friend to some heathen land where his ambition can be satisfied. M. B sells the very best Teas and Coffees in the market, you can’t beat them. Thirty years of busi ness experience has not fully convinced ine that the only right way to do busi ness is for cash. Mbs. Joiinson. Poor Mrs. Johnson, how I do pity you! you seem to be ge+ting dull! I am sorry that you cannot see the difference between a charitable work at home and ‘‘missionary work” in foreign lands! Wo have in our midst, Mrs. Joiinson, those that are ignorant and vicious that need culture, and we should have charity enough to impart to those poor unfortu nates a little of our “good bringing up,” and those that are lame, deaf, blind, sielt and poor. There is a pestilence raging among our Southern brethren of a fearful character that should enlist our deepest sympathies, and draw our atten tion first to them, their needs, and their claims upon us. “Charity begins at home,” Mrs. Johnson, or at least should begin at home I see how it is, Mrs. Johnson, you have been drinking some of M. B. Adams’ Tea; it seems to make you too nervous and perverts your judg ment;. Your ideas run in one channel, too much on the “old fogy” order! Go to Joseph C. Shults, buy some of his Tea, either Japan or Gunpowder, and you will find that it will infuse now life into you, it will clear up your befogged intellect, and give you a dear and prop er conception of things. Shalts’,s Tons and Coffees, Mrs. Johnson, are a won derful elexir, they brace up the consti tution, invigorate the intellect, and pro long life! Give up your foolish preju dices, Mrs. Johnson, you are not too far gone. Go to Shults for your Teas and Coffees, and in a few days you will be- all light again. Believe mo your sin cere friend, Mi’s. Jo n e s . N e w Shoe Store. Bosworth’s Opera House Shoe Store removed to 55 Main st., Batavia, N. K , first door east of Turners meat market.
