THE HUNTER ONE-TRIGGER 
The Hunter One-Trigger is Absolutely Perfect 
The mechanism is positive in 
its action. 
Parts are large and strong. 
It never balks nor doubles; in 
fact, it does just what we say 
it will, and does it every time.

A Mince Pie Dream. 
*Twas a shooter young and tall, 
To the G. A. H. had had a call; 
The Claypool was crowded, and it seemed the fate 
Of the many arrivals who came in late 
To sleep on cots or rest on chairs their feet; 
But I was given an attractive ‘‘suite” 
Of the most beautiful rooms that could be found 
In Indianapolis, that hustling Western town. 
My companions complained the dinner was ‘“‘bum,’ 
But I was served quart bottles of Mumm, 
Went to bed without a “tired feeling,” 
And soon sweet sleep was o’er me stealing. 
The morning dawned bright and fair, 
I went to the gun club—thousands were there— 
Gilbert and Crosby, I was shocked to find, 
Had to their credit scored ninety-nine; 
It seemed impossible for me to beat 
Two crackerjack shooters who knew not defeat; 
But my blood was on fire, I was determined to win, 
To let them have all the trophies seemed a sin. 
My name was called. What was a hundred to face 
To a man determined to win the race? 
I made a run of ninety-eight 
(My next shot was a little late); 
The referee in sepulchral tones cried ‘‘Lost’’! 
My home boys gave me a decided ‘“‘frost.”’ 
They expected a score of a hundred straight, 
And insisted I was no “running mate” 
To lose a race that meant to the “bunch” 
Glory, reputation and a champagne lunch. 
There was just one more bird for me to kill, 
This I centered with an indomitable will. 
The crowd all cheered, some picked me up, 
Said I would take home the “handicap cup’’; 
Gilbert and Crosby looked rather “‘sour,” 
To shoot it off meant another half hour. 
But we took our places and commenced a “run” 
That had never been made by a man with a gun; 
The trio were well matched and excitement was high, 
Until Gilbert and Crosby let a target go by. 
I was the winner of fame and glory, 
Anxious to get home to tell the story. 
The clock struck 3, with a start I awoke, 
This dream of glory “‘went up in smoke.”
