1t will be noticed that the shooting at
the 200 yard range was not nearly so
good as at the other ranges This was
due to the very high wind which pre-
vailed. Where the boys did their fine
work was at the skirmish, where they
broke all previous records at Sea Girt.
Their total at the slirmish was 1,0n out
of a possible 1900 points. This is an av-
erage of a fraction less than 80 points
out of 100 to the man. The score of the
winning team at the skirmish was only
1857, IA points less tnan the Guards
score. The same team won the prize last
year, making a score of 925 on the skir-
mish, and their total score was 1,439
which was 11s points behind the Guards
score this year.
In the press reports of the match a
great deal was said about the score of
SO on the skirpish mace by Hutterly of
the Engineer Corps of Washington. The
press reporter overlooked the fact that
Hutterly, on his second run, only made
go while F. c. Wilson made a score of
IS on his first run and SO on the second,
a total of 1893, against Hutterly's total
of 1879. Wilson's record at the skirmish
Is the best ever made at Sea Girt. In
the interstate match, Wilson made a rec
ord of nine bulls eyes and out of
ten shots at the 200 yard target.

for the purpose Of having a change made
in the contract If 1t were possible to do so.
He stated on his return that IL was pos
sible the contract for brick and
stone would never be car
ried out, and that there was still chance
Of marble being used instead. He was sat
isfied, it appears that he could prevail
upon congress to make the slight addition
al appropriation necessary for putting the
structure in marble, and it was on the
strength of this that the department has
requested the contractors to suspend their
operations until this matter has been
fixed.
He said also that IL was possible that
some arrangement could be made to give
the contract for a marble building to
Messrs. Miles & Bradt instead of their
present contract. No doubt the contractors
would be perfectly satisfied to make the
change, and there is every indication now
that the marble structure will be put up.

LINCOLN A MAN OF DESTINY.

LlNOObN "A MAN OF OhiOIlN >
The lecture of Heny Watterson was
listened to with profound interest by
the audience, at the auditorium, says
the Kansas city Star, which was
filled when Attorney John L. Peak
walked to the footlights to introduce
Mr.. Watterson. Mr.. Peak referred
to HIM as "the great southern states
man, editor and orator"
When Mr. Watterson rose to begin
the lecture there was burst of ap-
plause, which continued for a few
minutes, then almost subsidized and
swelled again louder than before.
The lecture was about Abraham Lin
coin, and the keynote of his theme
was that Lincoln was the man of the
hour, sent by Heaven and inspired by
God to save the Union and to save
the South from itself.
Mr.. Watterson began his lecture by
a reference to the poise and dignity
of the statesman in knee breaches
and powdered wigs who signed the
Declaration of Independence and
framed the Constitution. He said the
public men of the first half of the re-
public's first century we're chiefly dis
tinguished for repose of bearing and
sobriety of behavior. 1t was not I'M
til the institution of African slavery
got into politics as vital force that
congress became a bear garden, and
that the lawmakers of the country
LAID aside their manners with their
small clothes and fell into the loose
fitting habilIments of modern fash
ion and the slovenly jargon Of parti-
san controversy. Mr., Watterson con-
tinued:
"The gentlemen who signed the
declaration and framed the constltu-
ton were succeeded by gentlemen
much like themselves-but these were
succeeded by race of party leaders
very much less decorous and very
much more self confident; rugged,
pulssant; deeply moved in all that
they said and did, and sometimes
/ turbulent, and when the volcano burst
forth flames that reached the heavens
great human boulders appeared
amid the glare on every side; none Of
them much to speak of according to
rules regnant at st. James and YER
sailles, but all of them vigorous,
bralDy men, full Of their mission and
pulling for dear life IN opposite di-
rectlons.
amid the noise and confusion, the
clasbing the intellects like sabers
bright, and the booming of the big
oratorical guns OF the North and
South, now definitely arrayed, there
came one day into the northern camp
one of the oldest figures Imaginable;
the figure of man who, in spite Of
an appearance somewhat out of line,
carried serious aspect, if not the
suggestion of over, aud, pauslng q

here we are this night to attest lt,"..he
was standing in the center of the
stage He paused, took a few steps
forward, raised both hands, bowed
his head reverently and said: Goods
will be done in earth as it is in heav-
en-" The applause that followed
spread over the big theatre and lasted
several minutes. When it ceased Mr..
Watterson continued:
Let no Southern man point finger
at me because canonize Abraham
Lincoln, for he was the only friend
we had at court when friends were
most in need. He was the one man
IN power who wanted to preserve us
intact, to save us from the wolves of
mere passion and plumber that stood
at our door; and 20, as that God, of
whom it has been said, whom He
loveth he chasteneth,' meant that we
should be chastened, Lincoln was put
out of the way by the bullet of the
assassin, having neither lot nor par
eel, North or South, but winged en-
missary Of fate, come from the
shadows of the mystic world, which
Aeschylus and Shakespeare created,
and consecrated to tragedy"
"Of Lincoln's humanity the speak
er said;
Ellis unconventlonalism was only
equaled by his humanity. No ousto-
dian of absolute power ever exercised
it 30 benignly. His interposition in
behalf of men sentenced to death by
courts martial, became 30 demoraliz-
ing that his generals in the field
united in round robin protest. Both
Grant and Sherman cut the wires be-
tween their headquarters and Wash
lngton, to escape his interference with
the iron rule of military discipline"
AS LowLY BORN AS THE SAVIOR.
Born as lowly as the Son Of God,
in a bovel Of what ancestry we know
not aud care not; reared in penury,
squalor, with no CLEAN of light or
fair surroundings without external
graces, actual or acquired; without
name or fame or official training; it
was reserved for this strange being,
late in life, to be snatched from OBJ
security, raised to supreme command
at supreme moment and intrusted
with the destiny Of a nation.
THE great leaders of his party the
most experienced and accomplished
public men Of the day, were made to
stand aside; were sent to the rear,
whilst this fantastic figure was led by
unseen hands to the front and given
the reins Of power. 1t is immsterial
whether we were for him or
against him; wholly immaterial. That,
during four years, carrying with them
such pressure Of responsibility as
the world never Witnessed before, he
filled the space allotted him in the
eyes and actions Of mankind, is to say
that he was inspired of God, for no
where else could he have acquired the
wisdom and the grace indispensable
to his mission.
Where did ShakesE care get his
genius? Where did Mozart get his
music2 Whose hand smote the Tyre
Of the Scottish plowman and stayed
the life of the German priest? God,
God, and God alone; and so surely as
these were raised up by God, inspired
by God WAS Abraham Lincoln; and a
thousand years hence no story, no
tragedy, no epic poem will be filled
with greater wonder or be followed
by mankind by deeper feeling, than
that which tells of his life and death"
