NEWTONIAN. 
Milton Rod and Gun Club. 
Mitton, Pa, Aug. 18—Without doubt the largest 
crowd ever assembled at a single day’s tournament 
witnessed the marvelous shooting of Mr. and Mrs. A. 
Topperwein, of Texas, at the summer tournament of 
Milton Red and Gun Club at their most attractive 
grounds in Rangler’s Grove. 
All the hacks in town worked to get the two thou- 
sand persons, many of whom were ladies, to the grounds, 
and hundreds were disappointed by being left behind. 
To add to the success of this meet, Mr. J. Mowell 
Hawkins, of Winchester fame, broke the record in 
Pennsylvania by_smashing every target on the pro- 
gramme of 135. He also broke the 15 in practice, mak- 
ing his run 150 for the day. Mrs. Topperwein was only 
three behir.d in the string of 150. H. I. Hess, of Nan- 
ticoke, was high amateur, losing only five on the pro- 
gramme; and he zlso won the prize for _longest_straight 
run with a fine 62 before missing. R. C. Derk. of 
Northumberland, was second amateur, with 128, and Doc. 
Rishel third with 126. 
The trap worked poorly or a larger field of shooters 
would be reported, as the programme was only fairly 
begun at noon, and no entries were added after that 
period, for the fancy exhibition was scheduled at 4 
o’clock, and as the crowd was too large to keep waiting, 
we pulled off the greatest event of its kind ever given 
in this section of the country. Mr. and Mrs. Topperwein 
were in great form, and the crowd was so enthusiastic 
that they performed many stunts not always on their 
programme. Every person present was pleased with the 
exhibition, and the beautiful grounds never looked better 
than on this occasion. 
The club will install a set of expert traps in addition 
to the Leggett trap now in use, and will hereafter be 
better prepared to handle the large field of shooters who 
always attend the tournaments of this hustling club. 
Never has one been held which was not a decided suc- 
cess, and the trade seems to realize this, for the follow- 
ing experts have shot over these grounds: Bill Crosby, 
Jim Elliott, Hirschy, Billy Heer, Hawkins, Squier, 
Butler, Fanning, Stevens, Apgar, Daly, Hull, Colville, 
E. D. Fulford, E. D. Rike, Glover, Williams, and others. 
These are not included in the larger list who shot here 
during the State tournament of last year, when the meet 
was held on the Fair grounds.

Going Shooting? 
Half your success depends on your gun. You want a gun in which any natural 
wear can be immediately taken up by a compensating screw, wot returned to the 
factory for this purpose; the one with the fewest parts; the one made as you 
would make it if you were a gunsmith of 50 years’ experience. 
LEFEVER SHOT GUNS 
have no superior. Its compensating screw takes up all the wear. It has only 
three parts to its mechanism. Its exclusive cocking hook takes the strain off the 
hinge joint. Its dove-tailed top fastener and compensating bolt keeps the barrels 
continually wedged tight against the frame. 
Removal of lock plates does not interfere with the action. Indicator 
tells when gun is cocked. Barrels and stock imported. 
Every gun is taper bored, tested to shoot dead center with greatest 
penetration and eyen distribution of shot, before it passes inspection. 
The new Lefever catalogue is ready and will be sent to any address 
free of charge. Write for it before you forget to. Every lover of sport 
should have it.
