Faulk Pistol and Revolver Club. 
Bellevue, Pa., July 5.—The fact that Mr. Mercury 
was making a record shoot with his single-barrel thermo 
gun at the range here yesterday accounts in a measure 
for the below par scores made. Mercury goes as high as 
103 without a miss. The high score among the regu'ar 
shooters was Dr. D. A. Atkinson with a total of 64S; 
A. C. Faulk, second, with 613 and John Rolhouse, third, 
at 606. 
The club has a match shoot with Allison Park

New Publications. 
Trails of the Pathfinders, by George Bird 
Grinnell. Cloth, illustrated, 460 pages, $1.50 
net. New York, Charles Scribner’s Sons. 
Several years ago Mr. Grinnell contributed to 
Forest and Stream, under this title, a series of 
articles drawn from early books of Western 
travel and exploration. A number of these arti¬ 
cles have now been brought together and issued 
in book form. 
Few subjects are more interesting to Ameri¬ 
cans than the story of the explorations of the 
early West. The men who wrote these accounts 
were for the most part those who had seen and 
done the things of which they told. They were 
strong men, and if often untrained in the art of 
writing, they were at least able to tell the stories 
of their adventures in that simple direct fashion 
which is after all the best and most convincing 
way to describe anything. In the present volume 
the men who did these things have been per¬ 
mitted to tell their own stories, and the accounts 
are given, so far as it can be done, in the words 
of the men who wrote these old books. 
A brief introduction teils in a few words the 
story of the settlement of North America up to 
the time of the Louisiana purchase, and then 
follow chapters devoted to Alexander Henry the 
elder, Jonathan Carver, Alexander Mackenzie, 
Lewis and Clark, Zebulon M. Pike, Alexander 
Henry the younger, Ross Cox, the beginnings 
of the Santa Fe trade as narrated in the “Com¬ 
merce of the Prairies,” Samuel Parker, Thomas 
J. Farnham and John C. Fremont. 
There is thus packed away between the covers 
of the volume much history both as regards 
time and territory which ought to introduce to 
Americans at present ignorant of them books 
Phenomenal Shooting with 
THE PARKER. GUN 
At the Grand American Handicap, Columbus, Ohio, June 23, 1911, Mr. Lester German, of Aber¬ 
deen Md., won the Professional Championship from the 18 yd. mark, with the remarkable score of 
198 out of 200 targets, defeating the best shooters in the country. Ever since the inauguration of 
this high class event, it has been won by THE OLD RELIABLE PARKER, and is conceded 
to be the severest test of man and gun. It also emphasizes the fact that THE PARKER GUN 
is the strongest shooting, and makes the most even pattern of any gun made. The Professional 
Championship is a scratch event, all shooters standing on the 18 yd. mark. 
Mr. German the same day, again demonstrated the value of THE PARKER GUN in competi¬ 
tion, by defeating a large field of the best shooters in the country in the Championship event at 
DOUBLE Targets, breaking 89 out of 100, from the 16 yd. mark. 
In the Preliminary Handicap, Mr. C. B. Eaton, an amateur of Fayette, Mo., shooting THE 
PARKER. GUN made the phenomenal score of 99 out of 100 targets, and tied with Mr. Buck- 
waiter. In the shoot-off, Mr. Eaton defeated his opponent with a straight run of 20, thus winning 
the event. 
This remarkable shooting is only one of many reasons why you should shoot THE PARKER GUN.

THE NARRATIVE OF A SPORTSMAN 
INTER-OCEAN HUNTING TALES 
EDGAR F. RANDOLPH 
A series of hunting reminiscences of rare charm for the sportsman and for 
the wider circle which delights in true tales of outdoor life. With none of the high 
coloring and exaggeration which give a false note to so many hunting stories, Mr. 
Randolph's book is never lacking in interest. 
He covers the field of sport with the rifle, east and west, drawing a vivid word 
picture of life in the open, subordinating his own exploits to the main incidents of 
outdoor experience, giving much valuable information on camp life, hunting and the 
habits of wild game, and continually delighting the reader with the freshness of his 
viewpoint. 
This book will strike a sympathetic chord in the memory of every big-game 
hunter of experience and will prove of real value to the novice who is planning an 
excursion into the wild.
