6,0)3 SHOT* WITHOUT WIPING IN A SHOT-GUN. 



Cap'ain Bogardus' great feat of breaking 6,000 glass balls has proved that the powder is all that Is 

 claimed for it. The barrel-, without being wiped, were as clean at the ei id U n as after the 



first shot. Tie- fact oi tie unng ot so many shots in succession, and that the Captain has used about 

 2n0 pounds of the same powder during the last year in one gun, shows, without a dxibt, that the 

 powder is EFFICIENT, UNIFORM and SAFE. 



The rifle powder ei (vitnon a rival. The standing challenge to test this powder against any 



other has ce, : . . ■]. Many riflemen throughout the country have twee successful with the 



powder, as, for instance, Mr. E. B. Souther, ot the Massachusetts Rifle Association, wonjast year *-■

Greater facilities and greater demand have enabled us to reduce the price or the powder 



ably, and the faet that the Government Armory at Springfield is making 



machinery for us will enable us to produce always a uniform, and '" '
