vanished from our locality, and the proprietor thereof, 
Mr. A. C. Hurlburt, the founder of our club, its secre¬ 
tary-treasurer for years, its advertising manager and 
booster in general, has vamoosed himself and outfit over 
to the rampant Colt ranch at Hartford and there intends 
to concentrate his energies in the advertising department 
of the Colts’ Patent Fire Arms Mfg. Co. 
We are sorely grieved at his going; we shall miss the 
annual round-ups, the smoke-outs and the hot air spiels 
that held forth so long at the old ranch and brought us 
all in close touch with each other and added greatly 
to the good fellowship that abounds with us. These 
good times are now but memories, but they will live 
long in the minds of those privileged to efrjoy them, and 
their passing away leaves a big void that has put us 
somewhat down in the mouth. 
Notwithstanding our most popular member leaving us 
so abruptly, he takes with him the most sincere wishes 
of us all for unbounded success in his new position. 
Mr. Freeman, of our club, recently shot a score on the 
Olympic match targets under the match conditions just 
for comparison, and surprised us all with the score of 
539. These scores were afterward mapped out on the 
Standard American target and counted 577, there being 
forty 10s, seventeen 9s, and three 8 s. This is the best 
work Mr. Freeman has ever done, and modestly claims 
he never expects to repeat it: 50 meter target, 10 strings, 
6 shots per string, .22 S. & W. pistol—57, 53, 58, 57, 53, 
53, 53, 51, 54, 50—539.

Auburn Rifle Club won the team match of the Maine 
State Rifle Association. The team scores were: Auburn 
611 out of a possible 1000; Livermore Falls 578; Bryant’s

Kennel Diseases 
By “Ashmont” (J. Frank Perry, M.D.), author of “Ken¬ 
nel Secrets.” Illustrated. 8 vo. Cloth, $3.00 net. 
Postage, 22 cents. 
Every one who owns a dog should possess this invalu¬ 
able book, which has been long in preparation, and has 
been pronounced by a competent authority for ahead of 
any other work yet attempted upon the subject. The 
minuteness with which every detail is considered leaves 
little or nothing for any future work to attempt. Es¬ 
pecially important chapters are those on eczema, the 
different kinds of mange, poisons, distemper, hydro¬ 
phobia, ear and eye diseases, vaginal diseases, diseases 
of the urinary and sexual organs, and pneumonia (an 
especially valuable contribution), also the portions of 
the work which are devoted to symptoms and diagnosis. 
The work is entirely devoid of technical terms, and is 
written in such entertaining style, that any one with a 
love of dogs would find it not only valuable and help¬ 
ful, but interesting as well.

My Life As An Indian 
All That the Title Implies and More 
Probably the most faithful picture of Indian 
life ever drawn from the pen of a man who 
spent years among the Blackfeet, marrying into 
the tribe and becoming to all practical intents 
an Indian. 
Mr. Schultz tells of the life of the plains In¬ 
dian, when war and hunting were the occupations 
of every man, when the buffalo still covered the 
prairie, and the Indian was as yet little touched 
by contact with civilization. He describes as one 
who has lived the life, the daily routine of the 
great camp, the lives of the men and women, 
the gambling, the quarreling, the love making, 
the wars, the trading of the Indians. 
The narrative is full of intense human in¬ 
terest, and the requisite touch of romance is 
supplied in the character of Nat-ah-ki, the beau¬ 
tiful Indian girl, who became the author’s wife.
