HUNT. 
ONE-TRIGGER 
/ // ‘Tj'T is no great achievement to get both 
tLb birds with a Hammerless Smith Gun 
equipped with the Hunter One-Trigger attach¬ 
ment. Because it is so easy. Still the satisfaction 
is none the less, for it does require a good eye and 
a steady hand. 
THE GREAT ADVANTAGE of the Hunler One-Trigger 
is that you do not disturb your aim by changing from one 
trigger to the other. You simply pull the same trigger 
each time. There’s no relaxing of the muscles—no re¬ 
gripping—no re-adjusting yourself tothedifferentlengthof 
stock represented by the distance between the two triggers 
—no disturbance of your aim. There’s no creeping or drag¬ 
ging, either—and no firing of both barrels atthe same time. 
Write your dealer at once—or us direct—for hand 
somely lithographed Catalogue—it’s free. 
'/ The greatest gun in the world today is the new V 
f 20-Gauge H ammerlcss Smith Gun "with the 
Hunter One-Trigger attachment . Weighs only 5% to 7 pounds.

Death of Joe Knapp. 
Ossining, N. Y., May 26.—It is my painful duty to 
announce to you the death of Mr. Joseph N. Knapp, of 
Auburn, N. Y., who was the chairman of the tournament 
committee of this year’s New York State shoot. Mr. 
Knapp was one of the best-known and most enthusiastic 
trapshots in New York State, and the news of his death 
will be received with great sorrow by the many sports¬ 
men who enjoyed his friendship. Mr. Knapp was on 
his way home from the Rome shoot when the fatal ac¬ 
cident occurred, particulars of which have not been 
received. 
Chas G. Blandford, 
Sec’y-Treas. N. Y. State Sportsmen’s Assn. 
Concerning the deplorable accident which caused the 
death of Mr. Knapp, the following clipping from the 
Sun gives the only explanation we have received: 
Utica, N. Y., May 24 j—A s the result of the bursting of 
a tire on one of the forward wheels of an automobile in 
which they were speeding from Rome to Syracuse this 
evening, Joseph Knapp, of Auburn, was killed almost 
instantly, James Dey and T. D. Clay, of Syracuse, were 
injured severely, and James Brown, the colored chauffeur, 
was hurt mortally. 
The accident occurred on the State road near the 
village of Vernon, fifteen miles west of this city, at 
6 o’clock. The party had run down from Syracuse to 
Rome to attend a shooting tournament, and at 5:30 
started for Syracuse. A mile west of Vernon, with a 
clear road ahead, the chauffeur was hitting up a fast 
pace, when one of the forward tires blew up, throwing 
the heavy car to one side and causing the wheels on 
one side to collapse. The occupants were hurled a dis¬ 
tance of forty feet and landed in the roadway or the 
nearby ditch. 
Knapp, who was heavy, struck on the back of his 
head and suffered a fractured skull. He died before a 
physician could reach his side. Dey and Clay were 
picked up in a semi-conscious state, and with the 
chauffeur were hurried to a hospital in Oneida. Dey 
and Clay suffered from concussion, but after treatment 
at the Oneida Hospital, were able to go to their homes 
in Syracuse. Brown, the chauffeur, suffered severe in¬ 
juries to his head, a dislocated shoulder and a wrench¬ 
ing of his spine. His recovery is doubtful. The auto¬ 
mobile belonged to Mr. Dey, who is a member of the 
Syracuse dry goods firm of Dey Bros. 
Siwanoy Country Club. 
Mt. Vernon, N. Y., May 21.—In spite of the hot and 
threatening weather, we had quite a turnout for to-day’s 
shoot. After some preliminary practice, we proceeded to 
shoot for the President’s and Police Commissioner’s 
trophies. The results are as follows:

After the above contests were ended, the two high guns 
chose sides, and for the balance of the afternoon team 
competition was in order. 
When the members of the club proper (golf) realize 
what good times we are having at our shoots, it will be 
but a short time before we will be compelled to install 
a new trap; however, we are rapidly gaining recruits. 
Our third and final match with the White Plains Gun 
Club has been postponed till June 25. 
Geogre A. Wylie, Capt. 
New York State Shoot. 
Ossining, N. Y., May 24.—Through an oversight in 
the New York State shoot program, credit was not given 
the E. I. du Pont De Nemours Co., for their courtesy 
in donating the services of Luther Squier to cashier the 
State shoot. One of the most essential things in the 
successful running of a big shoot is a good man to look 
after the office end of it. The. fact that Mr. Squier is to 
again officiate in the capacity of cashier, and with 
Charlie North looking after the traps, a smooth-running 
shoot ' is guaranteed. There is every indication there 
will be a large attendance at Syracuse June 7, 8 and 9. 
President H. W. Smith will personally manage the 
tournament. Ask any one who attended last year’s shoot 
what that means.

Montclair, N. J., May 30. —But five men too part 
in the trophy shoot to-day. Winslow Vas the winner of 
the first event, Atwater winning event 4, the fourth leg 
for the members’ trophy, thus winning the cup for May, 
while Brown won the other three trophies. No very 
high scores were made, the light being very poor.
