Laureate Boat Club. 
Troy. N. Y., Sept. 11.—Trapshooting was inaugurated 
for the fall season on Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 5, over 
the Laureate Boat Club traps. The weather, although 
warm, was ideal for the sport, and good scores were 
made. Sanders shot in great form, scoring 147 out of 
130, and carrying off the honors for the day. Hurd fol¬ 
lowed iwith 143 breaks to his credit, securing second 
high gun. Kirkpatrick and Shorey also shot a pretty 
race for third position, the former winning by scoring 
137, while Shorey was credited with 134. Mr. Rice, ol 
Schenectady, scored 120, with Doc. Welling only 4, tar¬ 
gets behind, he scoring 116. 
Mr. H. Levengston, of Saratoga, paid the club a 
visit and shot very well considering the fact that this 
was his first attempt at the clays in five years. 
Crowley arrived a little late and shot at only 100 targets, 
but succeeded in keeping up his old reputation, scoring 
A large number of spectators enjoyed the sport from 
the club house balcony. 
Everything is in readiness for our two-day shoot on 
Sept. 23 and 24. We expect to have a large attendance 
and will endeavor to entertain the visiting shooters in 
Royal style. The* scores follow:

Canvas Canoes and How to Build Them. 
By Parker B. Field. With a plan and all dimensions. 
Forty-eight pages. Price, 50 cents. 
This little book, written by an enthusiastic and prac¬ 
tical canoeist, who regards his favorite pursuit as far 
superior to bicycling, driving, riding or yachting for 
healthful exercise, is well worth reading by any one 
contemplating an outing. By careful attention to the 
instructions any man of ordinary .mechanical talent may 
construct a good, serviceable canoe to carry 200 pounds, 
at a cost of six or seven dollars, and as the weight of 
such a canoe is given as only 35 pounds, it should well 
repay the cost of carriage to a lake or country. The 
book gives very precise instructions not only for building 
the canoe, but for remedying all the injuries to which 
it is liable to be exposed. The instructions are very 
clearly given and the cost of building is so low that it 
constitutes a great inducement to spend one’s outing in 
a lake country.

Two Clean Kills 
Y OU know quail -noisy winging bumble bees! 
They scared you green in your novice days 
as they broke from cover. They were 
almost out of range by the time you recovered 
and got your bearings. 
You know that sometimes, even to-day, you 
don’t get settled down until the whizzing birds 
are almost too far to reach. Then you wish for a 
gun that isn't just “good enough”—wish for a gun 
that kills clean and far and sure. 
Any man who swings a Lefever true on a pair 
of quail at long range does not feel a heart flutter 
for the result. He knows it— Two Clean Kills. 
The reason Lefever Guns kill clean and sure 
and far is Lefever Taper Boring. 
Taper Boring is only one of 19 exclusive ad¬ 
vantages of 
LEFEVER 
SHOT GUNS 
Our catalogue will tell you of barrel rigidity 
and take-up unequalled in any other gun. Also 
tells about other things you must know if you are 
to invest your money right. It is worth sending for.
