Sam Lord’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.

Lester German's First Registered ToNrnament. 
Aberdeen, Md., June 17.—The first registered tourna¬ 
ment of the Aberdeen Gun Club was held here yester¬ 
day under the joint management of Lester S. German, 
of this town, and Lloyd R. Lewis, of Atglen, Pa., both 
well known representatives of the Dupont Company. 
German looked after the traps, hustled squads, shot 
targets and ate lunch, while Mr. Lewis wrote up the 
squad sheets, kept the cash accounts and snatched time 
to cat a mouthful of lunch occasionally. As may readily 
be imagined under the above management the shoot 
was well and smoothly run. 
There were twenty-six shooters in all who took part 
in the programme, several of the locals being absent on 
account of pressure of business, this being a farming 
section, and the much needed rain of the day before call¬ 
ing the shooters to the fields to look after their crops 
in place of going to the traps to break targets. 
The chief attraction on the programme was the open 
contest for the Wawaset trophy. This was won by W. 
M. Foord, of Wilmington, Del., with a score of 97 out of 
100, his fellow citizen, Ed. Banks, being second, with 
96; German being third with 94, while the Delaware 
State champion, A. B. Richardson, was in poor shape 
and only broke 87. This contest was shot in the last 
five events on the programme. 
High average was won by Banks with 168 out of 175. 
Messrs. German and Foord won second honors with 165. 
Third place was won by G. Gent, of Baltimore, with 159. 
The lunch served for the benefit of the shooters was 
beyond cavil, and Mr. German promises that when green 
corn is good and juicy that he will give another shoot 
at which one of the main events will be lunch with 
green corn on the cob. Full details will be announced 
later.
