PARKER GUNS 
BUILT TO ORDER 
'pHE manufacturers of the "OLD 
^ RELIABLE” PARKER GUN 
wish to announce that the present is 
a particularly opportune time to 
place orders for guns built to indi¬ 
vidual requirements, a feature of the 
gunmaking business to which they 
have paid particular attention. 
Parker Bros, are prepared to supply guns in all gauges from 8 to 28 
bore, stocked to suit any purchaser’s requirements, and bored to give 
any distribution of the shot required from cylinder to full choke. 
PARKER GUNS REMAIN UNEXCELLED IN THEIR POWER OF HOLDING TOGETHER 
THE SHOT CHARGES UNDER HIGH VELOCITY AT EXTREME RANGES.

P. T. S. L. Averages. 
After smoke^ and wreckage had been cleared away, it 
was found by Secretary W. E. Robinson that W. S. 
Colfax, Jr,, of the Du Pont Gun Club, had a percentage 
of 92 t>-7, representing 325 broken targets out of 350 fired 
at in seven shoots, leading individual shot of the Phi a- 
delphia Trapshoters’ League. Jesse C. Griffith, of the 
•S. S. Whites Club, and Harry H. Sloan, of Meadow 
Spring, tied for second within a fraction of a point of 
the winner. 
On the averages based on five shoots the three 
leaders were also very closely bunched, but Griffith 
nosed out Sloan and Colfax by a fraction of 4-5, he fin¬ 
ished wilh 94 4-5 per cent., and Sloan and Colfax with 
an even 94. In this class C. H. Newcomb, S. S. Whites, 
and Harry Fisher, Clearview, tied for fourth and fifth 
trophies with 92 4-5 per cent.

Inter-City Team Race. 
The second match in the series between Dayton, 
Cincinnati and Springfield, was shot May 24 on the N. C. 
K. Gun Club’s grounds at Dayton. These grounds, which 
will be the scene of the G. A. H. next month, are 
rapidly being put in shape. The five traps are in place, 
and all traces of the damage done by the flood will be 
obliterated before the banner Grand American starts. 
Each city had its full quota, fifteen shooters, entered, 
and including those who took part in the practice events, 
about si.xty shooters were present. The race was much 
closer than in the first contest, only 5 targets separating 
the fiiLst and last teams. The scores made were also a 
big improvement, Dayton .gaining 30, Springfield 23 and 
C incinnati 9 targets. The close of the first round found 
Springfield leading, 4 targets over Dayton and 3 over 
Cincinnati, but m the second round Dayton took the 
lead and maintained that position to the finish, going out 
in first place with 3 targets the best of Cincinnati and 5 
targets ahead of Springfield. High individual scores 
were made by R. O. Heikes and J. H. Pumphrey, of the 
winning team, 90 each. C. A. Young, of Springfield, was 
second with 95. R. L. Trimble was high man on the 
(jueen City team with 90. The Cincinnati team is in the 
lead in the series with a total score of 1709; Dayton 
K;94, and Springfield l(j90. The last match of the series 
will be shot at Springfield, but the date has not been de¬ 
cided upon. Weather conditions were good. The match 
'vas started about 3 P. M., and was run off over the five 
traps with no delays. 
The e.xecutive committee of the club having in charge 
the preparations for the G. A. H. consists of R. O. 
Heikes, W. J'. Bippus, J. M. Markham, H. L. Mon¬ 
beck. S. W. Everett, R. R. Dickey, F. H. Rike, and 
W. F. MacCandless, all hustlers and hard workers. 
Among the visitors were Chief Hoochee Coochee, 
Chief Bald Eagle, and Chief White Scalp, of the Indians. 
Chief Buckeye was also in the city on his way home 
from the Kentucky State shoot, and conferred with his 
brother braves on matters relating to the tournament to 
be given at Cedar Point. O., on July 8-10. 
MacCandless never got a chance to get on the firing 
line, his duties in the office kept him busy, and he never 
neglects duty for pleasure. As usual at a shoot, Squier’s 
services were in demand, and he once again proved his 
mastery of details. His help was appreciated. Scores:

Jersey City Gun Club. 
Jersey City, N. J., May 24.—The disagreeable 
weather kept the crowd small to-day, as it was raining 
part of the time, and when not raining, it was so dark 
one cou’d hardly see the birds. Geo. Piercy was high 
gun again to-day with an average of 84 per cent., and 
R. S. Kearney was second with 80 per cent. Kearney 
also scored the only straight, the same being the first 
scored by him since being a member. This shows that 
he means to make the rest of us hustle to keep in 
his c’ass The scores follow:
