blankets, shipping hampers, etc. Any dog that 

 could not find in this exhibit, everything he 

 could want to eat or wear, would be mighty 

 hard to please. 



The Natural Science Association of America, 

 showed Mr. Studer's great work, ' ' The Birds of 

 North America," in various bindings. This book 

 includes over 800 plates, drawn and colored from 

 life. A special edition of the book was offered, at 

 a special price, in commemoration of the great 

 show, and I am glad to learn that a large number 

 of copies were sold. 



The Obrig Camera Company was there with a 

 full line of cameras and other photographic 

 supplies. 



The Iver Johnson Arms and Cycle works, 

 Fitchburg, Mass., showed a good line of guns, 

 revolvers and bicycles of their own make. 



Hermann Boker & Co., 101 and 103 Duane 

 street, New York, occupied space number 61. 

 They showed the Spencer repeating shot gun, in 

 twist and Damascus barrels, and the special 

 Spencer repeating trap gun. The Hollenbeck 

 hammerless shot gun, manufactured by the 

 Syracuse Arms Company in twist and Damascus 

 barrels; and an ejector gun made bv the same 

 firm also attracted the attention of all wing and 

 trap shots. 



Wiebusch & Hilger, New York, were in line, 

 with a fine display of high grade hammer and 

 hammerless shot guns ; smokeless powders for 

 shot gun and rifle purposes, and the well known 

 " Stevens " rifles and pistols; working models 

 for hammerless guns ; carved stocks, *.nd sam- 

 ples of Damascus barrels in their different 

 stages of manufacture. 



The exhibit was surmounted by the letters, in 

 electric light, "Smokeless S. S. Powder," for 

 which the exhibitors are general agents.
