Produced this Handsome New Gun 
Y ou will not look for conspicuous new 
“improvements” in the 1913 L. C. Smith 
Guns, because the 6 Hunter brothers’ 23 years of 
invention, expert workmanship and concentration 
of purpose have improved the Smith Gun to the 
point where improvements cease to stand out 
against the background of “No Shortcomings.” 
But you will see a complete new set of designs, 
so handsome in engraving, embellishment and 
finish, that you will be delighted to the point of 
ecstasy when you handle and examine them. And 
you’ll wonder that the prices are not double. 
Not new models — merely the regular L. C. 
Smith Guns beautifully re-designed and given 
names instead of numbers. 
Call at your dealer’s and see these handsome guns 
today. Or send for the new Book of Smith Guns 
showing all the 1913 new designs, at prices from $25 
net to $1,500 list. If you put it off, you’ll forget, so 
write for it non) before you lay aside this magazine.

Orange Gun Club. 
Orange, N. J., Jan. 11. —Ernest von Dengerke, of 
Von Lengerke & Detmold, was high gun here to-day, 
shooting as an “amateur.” Ernest does to the queen’s 
taste what we all try to do—mix business with pleasure— 
and successfully keeps his weather eye open for an 
order for a gun “just like he uses.” Three ten-bird 
events brought out good scores, Hosier getting 27 in 
strings of 9; Dukes doing the same with 8 , 9, 8 ; Wake- 
ley 8 , 9, 9; Hosier 9, 9, 9;Lockwood 10, 9, 7; Dukes 8 , 
10, 9; Perkins 7, 10 , 8 . 
Von Lengerke took the 10-bird walking match with a 
straight, while in the two 25-bird events W’akeley made 
24 and 22, which gave him high in the second and second 
in the first. Scores: 
Walking match: IVakeley 4, Hosier 9, Lockwood 8 , 
Dukes 9, Perkins 9, J. von Lengerke 3. 
Two 25-targets matches gave these results: Wakeley 
24, 22; Hosier 20, 21; Lockwood 20, 21; Dukes 22, 21; 
Perkins 22, 22; E. von Lengerke 25, 20; J. von Lengerke 
19, 21; Howe 23, 22; Kingsland 14, 18. Ties were not 
shot off. 
New Rochelle Y. C. 
New Rochelle, N. Y., Jan. 12.—Visiting gunners 
were Messrs. Pelham, Offutt, Tliompson, Moore, Griffith 
and Apgar. Targets were difficult, strong puffy wind 
all day, and during Olympic event a 60-mile gale and 
torrents of rain made the yachtsmen feel glad that they 
were on terra firma instead of in their boats. On Sat¬ 
urday afternoon Granbery made a clean score of 25, and 
went on to 36 before missing; he also won the Saturday 
cup and a leg on the Olympic trophy. Considering the 
conditions on Jan. 12, the shooting was creditable. 
Thompson did the best work on singles, and Offutt with 
17 out of 20 doubles, was easily high score. Donovan 
and Granbery are rounding into form. Scores of Jan. 11:

Sportsmen’s Show. 
The building of New York’s yearly sportsmen’s 
show at Madison Square Garden is going busily forward, 
and its “open season” will be the time for anglers, 
shooters, outers generally and guides to fraternize, tell 
of past performances and promise achievements for next 
season. The dates of the 1913 exhibition will be Eeb. 
27 to March 5. opening Thursday evening and closing 
the next \\'ednesday night. The action of the show 
will be led by trapshooting, in the third annual indoor 
international tournament. The conditions for smashing 
clay pigeons by electric light were improved last year 
over the 1911 tournament so greatly that the shooters 
have suggested no. further improvements. In the base¬ 
ment school boys will have their annual rifle shooting 
competitions under the auspices, management and 
rules of the Public School Athletic League. There will 
be six individual matches and six team matches. Six 
city public high schools of New York and several from 
out-of-town besides private schools will be represented. 
For fine enthusiasm it would be hard to find an element 
that can surpass anglers who compete in fly- and bait¬ 
casting tournaments. The anglers will rally round the 
tank again, but in the coming show the artificial 
“stream” will be transposed to the northern balcony, 
where the indefatigable W'altonites may cast from eleven 
o’clock A. M. to eleven p. m. In the sportsmen’s shows 
of the two previous years the tank was laid diagonally 
across the trapshooters’ field, which was also used for 
many spectacular activities when the guns were not 
cracking and the waiting were patient and stoical, but 
only by a supreme effort. 
The scenic phase of the two last shows will again 
he strong, but with new effects, and there will be 
guides, frontiersmen, cowboys, Indians, boy scouts and 
campers doing stunts whenever the shot is not flying 
across the field at the tall steel barrier. The owners of 
the new sportsmen’s shows, since 1910 — S. M. V’an 
Allen, of Jamaica, L. I., and Villiam J. Poth — are the 
managers of the Madison Square Garden, and they 
promise to produce an outing show that will do both 
owners and the historic Garden credit. “Steve” Van 
Allen is the inventor of indoor trapshooting by arti¬ 
ficial light and for the third time wfill smile his satis¬ 
faction at the pessimists who prophesied that it would 
never work. 'Ihe “gun houses,” “loading companies” 
and powder companies have been convinced, because 
they are all coming into the show with contracts for 
an increased exhibition space.
