HUBER & MERWIN'S CHAMPION BALL TRAP. 



We call the attention of the fraternity 

 to the above trap, claiming to be the «« 

 plus ultra. It combines compactness 

 with durability, and is arranged, by a 

 swivel on the bed-plate, to throw a ball 

 in any direction or at any elevation un- 

 known to the shooter, a screen prevent- 

 ing his seeing the direction in which the 

 trap is set. 

 __ The spring, as the cut will show, Is 

 made of a stoel rod or wire, bent spirally 

 at the point of attachment, thus receiving 

 the concussion its entire length, and pre- 

 venting breakage.
