The A. H. FOX GUN 
The A. H. Fox Gun is unquestionably the “quality gun” of this country. No gun ever 
made compares with it in the superior quality of its workmanship and materials, or the great 
strength and simplicity of its mechanical construction. 
Beautiful in model, perfect in balance, and unequaled in those things which make a strictly 
high grade gun, the “ Fox ” has fairly earned its title— 
"THE FINEST GUN IN THE WORLD* 
As evidence of this, we submit the fact that our business has more than doubled again this year—an 
increase owing solely to the merit of the Fox Gun. Made and guaranteed by 
THE A. H. FOX GUN CO., 4670 North 18th Street, Philadelphia, Pa. 
Beautiful Art Catalogue sent on request—write for it. _ 
For Field and Trap Shoot¬

NEW YORK. 
A New Representative. 
From the Du Pont Co., we have received the follow- 1 
ing interesting news item: 
It will be a source of gratification to the many trap- 1 
shooting friends of Mr. H. J. Donnelly, of Guthrie, I 
Oklahoma, to learn that he is now and has been since 1 
the 15th of this month, a full-fledged employe of the 1 
Sporting Powder Division of the Du Pont Company. 
While Mr. Donnelly is a citizen of Oklahoma, he was I 
originally from Kansas, the home State of Billy Heer, ] 
of Concordia, and Ed. O’Brien, of Florence, with both I 
of whom Mr. Donnelly has shot many a time when they I 
were still in the amateur ranks, and whom he is still I 
proud to claim as among his best friends. He has been I 
an Oklahoman long enough to be well acquainted in that I 
State, having moved there in 1890. That he is not a I 
stranger to trapshooting is shown by the fact that he has I 
been prominent in the amateur circles of Oklahoma and I 
the adjoining States for about ten years. 
Mr. H. J. Donnelly, Guthrie, Okla. 
Mr. Donnelly spent a few days last week at the home 
office of the Du Pont Company in Wilmington, Del., 
but left for St. Louis en route for Texas and his home 
State, where he will take up the work of looking after 
the Du Pont interests so far as sporting powders are 
concerned that has been so ably carried on by the 
late Mr. Hood Waters. While Mr. Donnelly is not at 
present very well acquainted in Texas, he can hardly be 
said to be without friends there, as among others, he 
has a brother, Mr. E. S. Donnelly, who is a resident 
of Dallas, Texas. 
The Du Pont Company feels that in securing the ser¬ 
vices of Mr. Donnelly it has, to use a popular phrase, 
been “mighty lucky.”

National Rifle Matches. 
Washington, D. C.—Important changes in the pro-, 
gramme for the national rifle matches will probably be 
made at the next annual meeting of the National Boardj 
for the Promotion of Rifle Practice. A number of novel 
suggestions have been advanced, all being intended to re¬ 
lieve the situation incident to the winning of the first foui 
places in the national team match by the teams repre-1 
senting the regular service. So much distinction in the' 
rifle world accompanies the winning of these prizes that.; 
the different branches of the services entered into- the; 
contest with great spirit. The Army, Navy and Marine ! 
Corps collected their most expert marksmen .bom ah 
quarters, and spent months in selecting and training the; 
teams, which finally represented them. The National 
Guard teams feel that they are at a disadvantage under 
the present rules, as they are necessarily restricted both
