Secretary Sherman's Speech at Gin
Cinnaff.

CInnAIl.
CINCINNATI, August 2S.-At the close of
the session OF the Chamber OF Commerce
this noon the Secretary OF the Treasury was
introduced to the merchants by President
Hartwell. He said
GeDtlemen,-It gives me great pleasure
to meet so many businessmen OF Cincin-
natl, even for brief period. hayea great
deal to do with merchants, and ] take this
opportunity to congratulate you that by
the bounty Of Divine Providence you Will
have to market the largest crop this year
that we have ever gathered since the world
was born in this country. The only point
of an unpleasant nature affecting the indus
trial interests is the misfoI tune which has
beiallen a large portion Of the South where
the yellow-fever has spread pail OF
distress amoung our southern brethren.
I can congratulate you, also, that our
currency is soon to be based upon
the solid money Of the world. / do
not wish to talk politics to you, and do
! not intend to do SO; but suppose it is the
common desire OF all men engaged in bust
ness to have staple and certain standard OF
values, and although you and may differ
as to the best means OF obtaining it, and as
to whether the means that have been adopted
have been proper ones, yet l believe it is
the desire OF the merchants of Cincin-
natl that their money shall be as
good as the money OF the country
with which we trade; and that, l
think, will soon be accomplished. take a
hopeful view Of our business affairs. After
this week there will be an end OF bankrupt.
cics; all men who believe that they are not
in condition to pay their debts will have
taken the benefit of the law provided for
their relief. After Saturday next we will
stand upon better basis-upon the basis Of
our prosperity and our deserved credit. 1t
has been the habit Of one OF your able and
influential journals to charge me with all
the bankruptcies OF the country. II gro
Ger could not sell goods enough to pay his
expenses, or 4 saloon-keeper ccIld not sell
beer enough to get rich, he took the short
way OF paying his debts, and this
paper would announce the fact that
be had been Shermanized." We have
passed through a severe crisis. It has
been common in all countries. ray
OF hope has dawned upon us, and every
sign of business is hopeful. We don't owe
England anything Of consequence. We
have gone through the debt-paring process.
A few years ago we were running IN debt
at the rate of one hundred millions OF dol
lars year, but lately we have been paying
off our debt at the rate one hundred mil
lions year. From this time we will be
more prosperous. You who live in the
heart Of the great West take heart in the
transaction of your business. because be-
lieve you have reached solid basis upon
which to conduct your business prOitably-
the basis of solid coin.

breaking it. After succeeding in
this, he shot few single balls, and
then got ready for the great feats of
the day.
First was the breaking of 200 balls
against time. This work was done
in just ten minutes and thirty sec.
onds.
The Doctor, after q short rest, de-
cided to let the 200 apply on the
1000 which he was to try to break
in eighty minutes, and he pro-
ceeded to his work, counting in his
resting time. During the shooting
in this attempt the Doctor showed
rare nerve and endurance. The first
500 balls were broken in thirty min
utes. At the end of sixty minutes
he had broken 1856, and at this time
he showed some wonderful shoot
ing, breaking SO balls in rapid sue
cession without missing any.
Thirty Of these he broke in one
minute. Passing swallows fut-
tered as the balls tickled their
wings, and occasionally the shooter
fired three times at the same ball
while it was in the air, breaking il
with his third shot. Then he told
his assistants to throw two up to-
gether and he broke them both.
AT last the one thousandth ball was
smashed, and the time was an
nounced to be 724 minutes-better
than he promised by a minutes.

DR.. CARVER'S WONDERFUL
SHOOTING.


From the New Haven Palladium
At last the famous California
marksman, DR.. w. +. Carver, was
favored yesterday by good weather,
and the great interest which his
wonderful shooting has awakened
was shown by the gathering at
Quinnipinc range in the afternoon.
At q little before three the Doctor
began preliminary practice by
breaking few single balls. Then
he let youth pitch balls at him
from q point about fifty feet away
and broke them Just before they
reached him. A few were thrown
high up in the air, and as he
racked them the feathers In them
flew far away.
He began his real work by at
tem pting to break s. out Of 100
balls thrown 20 feet In the air from
point 20 feet away. He broke SO
out of the 100, and hit 25 and 26 in
succession. He has broken l2s
alls in succession under the same
circumstances.
Forty-six trade dollars were
thrown up in the air about ten feet
above boys head, and ten feet
away from the rifle. OF these twen-
ty-six were hit by balls. Some
were carried 100 feet and some 500.
Many of the dollars had clean holes
through them. A boy caught one
on the fly. The scramble for them
made much fun. Then the doctor
shot two balls thrown up at once.
Next he tried the feat Of twice
missing purposely o ball and then

The dramatic entertainment of
the Junior Turner's, at Turn We.
rein Hall on Sunday evening, was
a most enjoyable affair, all the
young actors acquittiug themselves
with an ability that would have
done credit to performers Of much
larger experience. At the con-
clusion of the dramatic representa-
ton the floor was cleared for
dancing, which was kept up for
some time, old and young partici.
pating with that good humor and
regard for the enjoyment Of all
that Is o characteristic of German
social gatherings. The receipts of
the entertainment, which were
quite fair, will be devoted to the
purchase of instruments for the

On Sunday night burglary was
also attempted at the residence o.
Mr.. w. H. J. Brooks, on Main
street. Mrs. Brooks awakened just
in time to see a burglar leaving the
house through one OF the windows,
startled doubtless by hearing bel
movement before he had secured
any plumber, as nothing has been
missed from the house.
