The Messrs. Mallory, three brothers, made the round 
trip—Parkersburg, W. Va., to and from Sandusky—by 
automobile. 
Mr. Chris. Gottlieb, the affable expert, shot very much 
below his usual good form in the first three days, which 
mystified him much, as there was no apparent reason 
for his misses. It so happened that a gunsmith drifted 
his way ; to whom, in the conversation, the matter of the 
disappointing shooting was related. The gunsmith 
squinted down the barrel for a diagnosis, informed 
Chris, that the barrel was bent, and the poor shooting 
was a mystery no longer. In some unknown manner, 
the barrel had been injured, with the consequent ill 
results. 
H. S. Welles broke 20 straight alone in the first event 
of the second day, which improved his finances to the 
extent of $44.65 net. enough almost to place him in the 
leisure class. It didn’t happen again. 
J. T. Skelly was shooting in excellent form, being one 
short of the high averages one day, and one short of 
high in the cup event, which was going some when the 
speed of the company is considered. 
J. M. Hughes had a succession of hard luck in break¬ 
downs of his gun, so that practically he shot four or 
five different guns in the tournament. 
The portraits of Tom A. Marshall and Horace W. Heikes 
published in our trap columns this week, shows them in 
full war paint, encased in their beautiful Indian cos¬ 
tume. The other portrait of Mr. Marshall shows the 
costume he wears on returning to the reservation. It 
will be recalled that Tom has filled many other im¬ 
portant parts in history. He was the Mayor of Keiths- 
burg twice; winner of the Grand American Handicap; 
Captain of the all-American team which defeated the 
British team a few years ago, with an infinity of stunts 
of lesser degree, but important nevertheless. 
A GES and ages ago, the arch of a building might collapse. The simple principle hidden in 
the keystone was not then fully understood. Today such a thing as collapse would 
be improbable ; every builder has grasped the idea. 
A few years ago a gun might shoot loose and get out of order. “Gun collapse” was taken 
for granted ; today it has no excuse. Lefever construction may be seen in any gun store 
LEFEVER SHOT GUN 
action is readily understood. The keystone in an arch, with its problems of 
weight, thrust and resistance, is no more wonderful than the Lefever 
cocking hook. This one part does the cocking and extracting with one 
motion. It is the bond between frame and barrels—exact, sub¬ 
stantial, and so simple. If you shoot the gun with the lock 
plate removed, you will “grasp the idea.” 
Our catalogue will tell you of barrel rigidity and take-up un¬ 
equalled in any other gun. It tells about steel in these 
guns which is an honor to the names of Europe’s great 
steel makers—not a discredit. It also tells about I BFPVBR 
taper boring and other things you must know Ur.r r, V CIV 
if you are to invest your money right. It ARMS CO. 
is a catalogue worth sending for. 23 Maltbie Street, Syracuse, N. Y. 
IN SELECTING A GUN 
for field or trap use—BUY THE BEST. It may 
cost twice as much as a cheap gun, but it will last 
ten times as long. There is no better gun than a 
PARKER. Ask the man who owns one.

You can use in the same rifle, without change, of parts, .22 short, long 
and long-rifle cartridges. This is an excellent arm for target work as 
well as rabbits, squirrels, hawks and all small game up to 200 yards. 
The ammunition is cheap, giving much enjoyment at little expense. 
In our four distinct models—the solid top is always a protection and 
keeps powder and gases from blowing back: the side ejection allows in¬ 
stant repeat shots, without the possibility of throwing an ejected shell 
into your face or eyes; the removable sideplate or take-down construction 
makes them the easiest of all .22s to keep clean.
