Philadelphia Rifle Association. 
Philadelphia, Oct. 17. — The weekly competitions of 
this Association were shot Saturday, Oct. 17, on the 
Arlington range, Lansdowne avenue and Cedar Lane, 
near Llanerch, Pa. The rifle shooters were conspicuous 
by their absence, but the hand-gun division are hitting 
up a pretty hot pace. Spering’s 94 was high with pistol, 
closely followed by Dr. Palmer. Spering and Geo. Smith 
each made 90 with revolver. Olmstead came over from 
Jersey to shoot a few scores on the old range. Come 
often, Van.

By Rowland E. Robinson. Price, 
Sam Lovel’s Boy is the fifth of the series of Danvis 
books. No one has pictured the New Englander with 
so much insight as has Mr. Robinson. Sam Lovel and 
Huldah are two of the characters of the earlier books 
in the series, and the boy is young Sam, their son, who 
grows up under the tuition of the coterie of friends that 
we know so well, becomes a man just at the time of the 
Civil War, and carries a musket in defense of what he 
believes to be the right.

The weekly competitions of this Association were shot 
Saturday, Oct. 17, on the Arlington range, Lansdowne 
Avenue and Cedar Lane, near Llanerch, Pa. The 
weather conditions were fine, and the added improve¬ 
ments to the range are quite a credit to our unselfish, 
hard-working members, and will give us ample room for 
active competitions with the revolver.
