Cmicaco, Tll., Sept. 7.—Shooting began in carnest at the nav.onal tournament at Fort Sheridan today. The tempting purses and golden medals brought forth the test efforts of the marksmen and some phenominal work was done. Licutenant Ramsey drove seven leaden missiles out of & possible ten through the blinking bulis-eye at the (00 yard range. Sergeant A. C. Austin pierced eight out of a possible ten at the 500 yard limit, and a score of forty-eight points with ouly fifty chances was made by o crack shot from the "Rio Grande. Today, besides being the opening of the tournament proper, was the day-set apart for bulls-eye firing. Two purses, four gold medals and one prize were offered. Sixty- eight competitors including Licutenant Colonel W. D. Hotehkiss and Cuptain John H. Ingrabaa of the Secoud infantry, Illinois National guards, entered the lists, Firing bogan early and continued iucessantly till darkness intervenod. Use of the 1,000 yaras rauge which was about to begin was post- poned. In the officers’ contest for the Spaulding wedal the coutest at the close of 800 yards firing secmed to rest botween Licutenant F\ D, Ramsey, 210 points; Lieutenant Colonel W. D. Hoteiiss, Second lilinois infantry, 203 points, and Licutenant W. N. Hughes, Thirteenth fnfantry, 195 points, 'he threo highest in the coutest for the enlisted men’s purse arc: Private C. M. Clark, company 15, Fourth infautry, 115 points; Private D. MeKenzie, company D, Eighteenth infantry, 210 points, and Sergeant S_Kenny, compary J. Eighteenth infantry, 200 points. W hile it is gencrally accepted that the thre naned in each of the above cou- tests will include both winners, it s possible that bad luck on their part, accompanied by some phenomenal work by sowe one daugerously close in the final score, will change the outcome ma- terinlly. When the shooting began he cavalry wen beld their own splendialy with their infantry brethren, but when tho long auges were reached their “shooting irons' were far 100 short to compete with the *lon, toms” of the footmen. Jackson, the colored crack of the “Fightiug Niuth” missed tha targot entirely several times in the 500 range. When the signul was given for dinner the fiving hud bean completed on the 200, 300 and W0 yard rauges and a gold medal and & §100 Sergeant A, Fourth iufantry, had carried Iuter Ocean purse of $100 enlisted competitor, making the est number of bullseyes at 200, 300 and 500 yards. His score is as follows: Two hun dred yards, four bull's eyes; $00, threo; 500 eight; total, fiftoen Lieutenant W. N. Hughes, Thirteenth fr- fantry, won the gold medal offezed by the Iribune to the oficer making the greatesc number of bull's eyes at 200, 500 and 500 ards. Lieutenant Hughes ‘secured three ull's eyes at the 200 yard rauge, four at the 300 yard, and tive ut the 500 yard, making & total of twelve, In the afternoon the shooting wits begun at 00 yards and at that range closed two con- tests. One, the Inter-Ocean gold medal to the oMcer making thg highest score at 200, 800, 500 and 000 yards at bullsaye firing, was won by Lieutenant . D. Ramsey, who scored 167 points. Lieutenant W. N. Hughes was a good secoud, making 166 points, and Lieuten- ant Colonel W. D. Hotehkiss, Secoud Tihnois ivfantry, 164 points, Lieulenant Colonel Hotebkiss won the prize offered to the oficer making the greatest score at 500 yards in bullseye firing. He scored forty-five points, which is repurded as remarkable shooting. General Miles war on the range this after- neon.

Hosser, B. Huas, Sawyer & Co., and the Om ahu Flower company Ayt Hall, A better exhibit was nover scen in Art | ball than that crowged into its octagonal quarters this year. The ncedle work rises truly into the ‘realm of art, and attracts a great deal of fayorable 'comment. The paintings, ferayon and pastel work are also superior to those of previous exhibits, There are many offorts that would attract attention anywhere, Thero are a number of clumsy, crude daubs, but they arein the minoity this year, First and foremost among the work of Nebraska's artists are the paiutings contrib- uted by Mrs. C. 1. Alexander of Syracuse. The quiet country scone with cows in the foreground is regarded by many as her best effort, although the lurger painting of *'Cows atthe Brook,” lemous, begonius, glass of water and nut have each admirers. The pen work of Judge Higgins' 14-year. old son, tarry, of Grand Island attracts con- siderable attention, Among the specimeus is an excellent portrait of Governor Boyd. A striking featuro of the display is tho picturo of a Greek maiden on tapesiry exo- cuted by Mrs, Johu B. Wright. The same lady also has a beautiful collection of china, hand painte The head of the Madonna by Sarah C, Reilly is universally pronounced the finest piece ot erayon work in the exhibit, and far surpasses anything olse presented by that Indy. Among the more notable articles presented by Miss Mabel Merrill are the head of a dow and a marine scene, both in pastel, and & very handsomo screen. Mrs. Mabel Clason has shown what she can do in the “Koses” and *Dice Throwers.” Mrs. Auna Junk shows herself to bo a clever artist in ner pictures of apples, ducks, igure s, rose panel and lemons, Miss ISdith 'B. Russell has an attractive dis- play of china and a numper of painting dis- playing unusual skill. The picture, *Ludy Playing a Mandolin,” is one of the most striking pictures in the hall. Pharoah’s horses loom up as usual in no less than five different style of drawing and coloring. Among_other artists who have praise- worthy offorts are Mr. George, Mrs. Bohanan, Miss Blanche Rtoot, Mr. George and O. ! Wilson . Among the other notable features of the display are the brass work by Mrs, Georgo K. Brown and the pottery work of Annied. Eulon. FHOM FIRST PAGE. | Mercantile Hall.

These dispiuys 'were finished tonight. On the Grounds. Outside the buildings provided for the dispiuy of goods by the association there are soveral frame structures devoted to every concoivable purpose. There are restaurants, English kitchens, dining rooms coudt cted under the auspices of almost every churen in the city. These sanctimonious life supporters are ravged in one row,distant many feet from the hostelries which have not the sealofreligion. Then thero are confect aries, toy booths, cidar stalls, book stands fakirs with freaks, and shows, catch penny devices well nigh innumerable, Tho petri- fied woman, which the militia boys drove out of camp at Grand [sland1s here, as is also the wild man of Alabama, and people are found who aro curivus enough to patronize therm, In the space allottea to threshers thero are about twenty of these peripatetic machines quartered. Each 15 connected with an im- mense traction engine by a belt. The noise they make when set in motion at the sams time is almost deafening, especially when the superfluous engines permit their steam to escape and pierco the air with their shrill and demoniacal whistle, Iu another section there aro about fifty windmills rovolving at the rate of & mile & minute befors the brecze. Some of these work at u dizzy height upon iron and wood frames and others exhibit themselves at a distance of only a few feet above the ground. Some are geared to pumps, corn shellor: elevators, and a dozen other ‘machines, while some are satisfied to revolve without' doing auything more, There arc soveral acros of mowing ma- chines, sulkies, plows, harrows, bugkies and farmers' wagons, and_the number is being constantly added 'to. In theso respects the exhibition excells that of any proceding year.

FREE DELIVERY, Experiments in Small Towns More Than a Success. Wasnixatos, D. C., Sept. 7.—The post- master general was indignant when he learned that during his absence on a vacation an 1ll-informed clerk i one of the bureaus of tho Postoftice department had given out false information to tho press, namely, that the free delivery expeciments in small towns are not a success, He caused an examination of tho latest reports from theso exporiments to be made, and found that they were | succeeuing beyond his most sanguine | expectations and in a way utterly to | contound the critics of the experiment. It is already an established fact, it is stated, that tho increased reven.ie in those offices where the free delivery experiment is on trial almost pays for the incrensed oxpenditure. Even if the free delivery does not quite pay for itself, it s likely that the postmaster general will ask congress to consider the question whether the rural districts of the country may not properly expect this slight contribution to their postal facilities where, in s0 many quarters they have, up to the present time, been so limited PROVISION AL cHiLrs GOVERNMENT.

There has not been & session in congross for years that has not been calied upon to appropri- ate not ouly for vensions to become due, but also for deficiencies in pension approvri- ations.
