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.

Nov. 7.—The weekly competitions of this Association 
were shot to-day on the Arlington range. The weather 
conditions to-day were ideal, but only a few of the

of the week.

TARRED ROADS AND FISH. 
The aim of all good motorists, fishermen, and 
pedestrains is to dwell together in love and 
charity, and the existence of this common de¬ 
sire will doubtless some day result in the dis¬ 
covery of means for attaining these Christian 
ends. With the best intentions the pedestrian 
and the motorist have united in an attempt to 
diminish the dust nuisance by the application of 
tar to the surface of roads. It is now alleged 
by fishermen in two isolated instances, accord¬ 
ing to a correspondent of the Field, that wash¬

a certain pond some quarter of a mile from a 
recently tarred road a number of fish, mostly 
large carp, were found to have died. On in-
