Tho bridge must be made tis strong as possible, all of tho timbers and tho wood used in its con struction, must bo, and must bc kept sound. Tho testimony, even that olio red by tho receiver, shows that it is not now in thc condition desired. Mr. Leo him self luis suggestions to oller looking to this end, based upon the connection that additions and improvements are neces sary. To effect tho end desired, and to RCOUrC tho city of Anderson in Un making and maintaining of a sufficient bridge, tho petition will be retained, with leave to the city council to obtain tho aid of tho Court whenever such aid bocamo necessary or desirable.

Tho programme said that tho object was amusement, not money-making, and so tho spectators {ot up foot races, wrestling matches and exhibitions of jumping, with and with out hop-skip attachments, otc, for the amusement of tho shooters. This may account for Homo of tho low scores made. Tho shooting, however, was as hard as the management could mako it under the Sargeant system-i. e., low dight of tio^ot? thrown fully 50 yards at oatronio angles.
