The Palefaces. 
Boston, Mass., March 10. — Fifteen shooters toed the 
mark for the second March shoot on the Paleface 
grounds to-day, and while not a large attendance in 
view of the good weather, it was a representative one, 
to say the least. 
Dr. Newton and P. Caswell, H. L. Edgarton, all out- 
of-to\>;n boys, together with Frank, Daggett, Burnes, 
Hassam, Hlinn, etc., of the home crowd, were among 
the number, and some of the scores made were of the 
best. 
In the high average race a banner contest was wit¬ 
nessed between the club’s old reliable Dickey and Kirk¬ 
wood. Only in one instance was there any advantage 
gained on either side, and just enough to say so. Doc 
Hassam’s win of second average was a pleasure to all, 
as this boy has been traveling in hard luck of late, and 
every one was pleased. With the new gun trimmed in 
shape, it will now be in order for this trappist to head 
the list with the best of them.

The Only Practical One=Trigger 
SMITH GUNS 
Hunter One-Trigger 
The Hunter One-Trigger construction absolutely prevents balking or doubling. It gives 
exactly the same control over the firing possessed by a two-trigger gun, with the greater speed, 
accuracy and convenience of one trigger. 
There is already an enormous demand for the new 20 Gauge Smith Gun —weight 5^ 
to 6 lbs., and a little beauty. If you do not know about it, be sure and write. 
The Hunter Arms Company 
90 Hubbard Street 
Fulton, N. Y. 
The Hunter One-Trigger makes the superiority of Smith Guns more pronounced than 
ever. It is the ONLY perfect, non-frictional, practical one-trigger ever produced. Smith 
Guns, equipped with the Hunter One-Trigger, are unequalled foi any kind of shooting—field, 
duck or trap—and they hold the world's record.

action, 
Governments adopt the Colt Revolver because it successfully 
passes all competitive tests for strength, durability and accuracy. 
Police Departments, banks and express companies select the Colt 
because it meets their requirements for power, compactness, 
quick action and ability to withstand hard usage. Are not these 
convincing arguments? Send for catalogue No. 12. which will 
give you a lot of information about Colt Revolvers and Auto- 
- matic Pistols.
