Sam Lovel's Boy. 
By Rowland E. Robinson. Price, $1.25. 
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

HITTING vs. MISSING. 
By S. T. Hammond (“Shadow”). Cloth. Price, $1.00. 
Mr. Hammond enjoys among his field companions the 
repute of being an unusually good shot, and one who is 
particularly successful in that most difficult branch of 
upland shooting, the pursuit of the ruffed grouse, or 
partridge. This prompted the suggestion that he should 
write down for others an exposition of the methods by 
which his skill was acquired. The result is this original 
manual of “Hitting vs. Missing.” We term it original, 
because, as the chapters will show, the author was self- 
taught; the expedients and devices adopted and the forms 
of practice followed were his own. This then may be 
termed the Hammond system of shooting; and as it was 
successful in his own experience, being here set forth 
simply and intelligently, it will prove not less effective 
with others.

Philadelphia Rifle Association. 
Our pistol team in the League match, Thursday even- 
ing, recorded scores all the way from 34 to the possible 
50, but the totals were the most consistent so far in the 
race, and the team total of 1071 was ten points better 
than any we have put up before. And it was a good 
thing they extended themselves on this particular occa¬ 
sion, for Providence’s score of 1061 just equalled our 
previous best score. Ricker got a poor start, shot 
nicely through his second and third strings, rolled up a 
fine 49 on the fourth, but the strain was too great, and 
the fifth score was a 35. As Bill Smith temporarily 
stopped making possibles, Spering felt impelled to take 
up the burden.
