more than F. Campbell, who took second. Wm. Wet- 
leaf made 140, and third stuff. Three pros, ran along

Cincinnati Gun Club. 
Something doing at the grounds on Aug. 11 , and in 
spite of a stiff wind, some nice work was done. L. J. 
. rjuier was high man with 95, followed by Hammer- 
schmidt with 87. The latter has been doing very little 
trapshooting this season, and was not in his usual form. 
Dillon made his first appearance as a trapshooter, and 
"HI do better with practice. The grounds are in perfect 
condition for the E. C. cup match between H. D. Free¬ 
man and J. S. Day, which will take place on Aug. 24. 
PARKER GUNS 
Wear Well, Shoot Well and Handle Well 
Wear well because they are made of the best material by the most skillful craftsmen. 
Shoot well because they hold the charge compactly together at extreme ranges. 
Handle well because the greatest attention has always been paid to the distribution 
of wood and metal, to insure perfect balance and the most symmetrical outline. 
Twenty-bore Parkers have set the pace for small bores in America, and are growing 
in popularity every year with the most progressive sportsmen.
