Little Leslie Hailey Marksman on the Pacific Coast
A seven year old, Leslie Hailey, is hailed as the champion boy marksman of the Pacific coast for long distance shooting and deer stalking. He hunts with a Scotchee dog in the mountains near Mount Shasta, boasting three pairs of antlers from last summer and one precise 150 yard deer shot. He also excelled at a Quincy long range target event at six, tying then winning a shoot off with a bullseye, all while staying modest and preferring backwoods life. The piece also notes the Ferris Wheel Game, a complex spiral hopscotch-like contest popular at the Columbian exposition, created by a Chicago lad and spreading quickly among youth.
