In letter received from Hilo it
was stated that the shooting was
the worst ever done by the Hilo
team.
The teams are anxious to shoot
off the deciding match as soon as
possible, but it is thought hardly
probable that they will be able to
do it before April 25th.
Following is what the Hilo Trib-
une has to say about the shoot:
CATER several days this match at
last came off on the afternoon of
Wednesday, March 4th. The wind
was contrary as possible and the
results were a poor shoot and a
poorer score, Captain H. G. Aus

I. SPRINGFIELD. Ills, Oct. e3.-The
capital city of the state OF Illinois well
coined the Democratic nominee with a
magnificent reception. Crowds that
numbered up into the tens of thousands
listened to him and noIslly demonstra-
ted their affection for him and their be-
lief in the principles that he advocated.
Mr.. Bryan delivered two speeches in
Springfield, one at the court house and
the other from in front OF the state
capitol.
From the platform erected near. the
court house Mr.. Bryan spoke. He made
a speech on the same lines us those
formerly reported. the only significant
expression being the following:
Il feel that in this state where our
candidate for governor is SO ably pre-
sentins and defending the principles
involved in this campaign and; 50 con-
rincingly presenting the paramount is
sue OF the money question, 1t is scarce
ly necessary that any one else shall
say word. Because OF all those who
are to-day defending the money Of the
constitution there are none who are do
ing 1t more ably or with more emphasis
than John p. Altgeld." tssl; t1iS
There was q stop of five minutes at
Petersburg and one of fifteen minutes
at Havana. AT the latter place II
transpired that that was the city where
Mr.. Bryan in a debate on the money
question after being asked for: a silver
dollar by his opponent turned the tab
les on his adversary by requesting OF
him q gold dollar, which he did not
have, story he was often used during
the campaign. It was further shown
that his adversary was no other per-
sonage than the Hon. William L. Ma
son. ~
(The dispatch does not state 1t, but
1t Is nevertheless true. that in tho in
cident above referred to Mr.. Bryan
showed himself the demagoguc, and the
fact he has used the story often dur
3nS the campaign" IS not 10 his credit.
Every intelligent man knows that the
gold dollar piece was dropped from the
coinage several years ago and that
there are now none In circulation. he
also Knew that the silver dollar we now
lave Is worth one hundred cents and is
equal to gold. The incident only serv-
ed to show that 2Tr. Bryan presumed
