The match was under Hurtingham rules, 30 yards rise and 80 yards boundary, with five ground traps. The match lasted an hour and Mr. Elliott carri- ed off the prize, killing 47 out of 50 birds while Beck only killed 42 out of 50. Elliott missed his first bird, but only two out of all that remain- ed. He impressed the spectators as the best second barrel man ever seen onthe grounds. He seemed inmag- nificent trim, missed with the first occasionally just to have the fun of bringing down his distant bird with the second. Beck, as was foreseen, was not in good condition. He was nervous and far from himself. His shooting however, was good as com- pared with some other experts. The score was: Elliott—* 1121111222111 22122111211212122111 22112220211122011—47.

Senator Vest went on to criticise the provisions of the pending tariff bill that are supposed to be for the benefit of the farmers, and said that what the farmers wanted was opening and enlargement of foreien markets for their surplus wheat, cattle and pork, and the decrease of tariff duty on clothing, hardware, tin and other necessary articles of daily and incessant use by the farmer and family. The time for soothing syr- ups and emollient applications was past, and home market would be no longer satisfied with garbled statis- tics or with the purring official as- surance that the farmer would be relieved by higher taxation.—Report of a recent speech by Senator Vest.
