The June Outing is a very commonplace number, containing no article of special interest, but with plenty of sporting articles of the usual nature. The leading article is "All For a Life," a story of the sea. It is an unnatural and improbable story and though it has a certain interest for the reader in that it is written in an easy and pleasant style, the plot is nothing new or remarkable, and the situation at the end is rather incomprehensible. "Kings of the Trotting Track" is a paper supplementary to "Queens of the Trotting Track' printed in the May number. It is, like the first part, largely statistics and to the average reader rather uninteresting. It is well illustrated from paintings by Gean Smith.

The number opens with "Black Bass Fishing" by Francis J. Hagan. The author describes in an entertaining way the methods of bass fishing illustrated from his own experience. There are several illustrations. "After Kangaroo" is an article of rather uncommon nature. It described two kangaroo hunters, one in which the hunters run the game like a fox, the other really a battue in which all the kangaroos possible were killed, for in some parts of Australia the kangaroos are very numerous and are a great nuisance.

"The Sailing Yacht of Today" is a good treatment of the subject by C. L. Norton. The paper is illustrated with a number of diagrams. "An Apache Dance" by Nantan Lupan is very interesting. S. Scoville has another article on Athletic Records, Past and Present." The author compares new records with those of the past in a very good paper, finding 'that in all field events and in the track events through the mile we are far superior to our grand parents." "A Dangerous Sidepath" by John Seymour Wood is a typical Outing love story. The heroine is a great bicyclist possessed of all the charms peculiar to her sex. Her hero is also altogether admirable. Naturally they marry. Perhaps the best article of the number is "Shore Birds and Shooting" by Ed. Sandys. It is an account of a shooting trip on the great lakes with a list of the birds seen. The other articles of the number are of the ordinary kind. The poetry is, as usual, poor.
