# The Wasp, May 8, 1880: "The Result of Aim" This page shows two portrait cards labeled "I'm Kallock" and "Charles De Young," identified as the caption's point: "The Result of Aim." The satirical title suggests this references a shooting incident between these two men. The cards appear to be playing cards or similar items, presented as if they're trophies or evidence. The accompanying text mentions the publication's San Francisco office and Sacramento recording, indicating this was a local California scandal. Without additional context, the exact incident remains unclear, but the presentation suggests the magazine was satirizing a notable confrontation—likely a duel or violent dispute—between these two figures prominent enough to warrant public ridicule in this satirical publication.
