Each man to shoot at ten live, sound and healthy birds. and. American Association rules to govern said contest. 3rd. The losing side to pay for all birds trapped. This challenge must be accepted within five days or the match will be declared off for the reason that our time is entirely too valuable to be wasted in waiting for the acceptance of a challenge from second class shooters. Respectfully, Wm. H. Snyder, Frank Ikeler. Bloomsburg, Pa., March and, 1896. To Wm. H. Snyder and Frank Ikeler : Dear Little Boys : After considering your mental in firmity and weakness of intellect we have decided to kindly pardon the presumption which prompted your challenge of the 39th. ; and believing that you ought to receive the benefit of an exhibition of our superior skill and marksmanship, and thus learn your real insignificance as shooters, we have concluded to accept your challenge in a spirit of charity and benevolence toward you. Of course you must not begrudge the expenses of the birds, remembering that you will reap untold profit from being thus kindly permitted to witness our skill. If after the shoot you haven't the necessary money to defray expenses Mr. Snyder can obtain from Oliver Wilson, Poor Director, an order for " outside relief." Let us advise you not to be " puffed up with pride " because we have accepted your chal lenge but receive the same with all due thanks and humiliation, remem bering that we only grant you this un usual privilege that you may be bene fitted thereby.

General Harrison Describes the Duties of the Chief Executive's Advisers- " In all important matters the Presi dent is consulted by all the Secreta ries," writes ex-President Harrison in March Ladies' Home Journal in an article upon "The President's Duties." "He is responsible for all executive action, and everything that is out of the routine receives his attention. Every important foreign complication is usually discussed with him, and the diplomatic note receive his approval. The same thing is true of each of the departments. Routine matters pro ceed without the knowledge or inter ference of the President ; but, if any matter of major importance arises the Secretary presents it for the considera tion and advice of the President. Only matters of great and general im portance affecting the general policy of the administration are discussed in the Cabinet meetings according to my experience and votes arCof rare occurrence. Any Secretary desiring to have an expression upon any question in his department presents it, and it is discussed 1 but usually questions are settled in a conference between the President and the head of the particular department. There is a yielding of views, now on one side, now on the other but it must, of course, follow that when the Presi dent has views that he feels he cannot yield, those views must prevail, for the responsibility is his, both in a Constitutional and popular sense. My habit was to give an afternoon to each Cabinet officer, on a fixed day of the week. These meetings were chiefly given up to the consideration of ap pointments, but if any other matters were pending, and deemed by the Secretary of sufficient importance, they were presented and discussed. The labors of a Cabinet officer are incessant and full of responsibility. His time is largely taken up with calls, and, like the President, he must, out of such fragments of time as he can secure, manage to study and decide the important questions that are daily presented to him. Certain appointments, chiefly of a clerical character, are by law given to the heads of the departments, and with these the President usually refuses to interfere, though often urged to do so. It was my practice to refuse to send any card of recommendation to a Secretary, though I spent many a weary hour explaining to friends why I could not do so.
