EIGHT HUNDRED BICYCLES IN LINE. =
BOSTON May 3O.--The first annual meet
ing of the League of American Wheel
men to day was a novel event. Many
clubs from different cities had arrived
within the past W or three days, and
at the parade to-day there were about
500 bicycles in line. The procession,
which began to move at about noon,
was witnessed by immense crowds of
people all along the route, which was
in the Black Bay, along Common
wealth e and adjacent streets.
The largest club in the procession
numbered l3 men and the smallest 2.
Among the clubs in line were the New
York City. IL men; Essex. N. j.,
2 men Yonkers, n. Y, I men; Brook,
Ign n. Y, 10 men; Manhattan, New
York, Capt. Bonner, Is men, Albany,
n. Y, Capt. Scatterwood s men; Mer-
curry Club of New York, Capt, c.. T..
Brown, Jr., . men, and kings County
Club, Capt. Clark, s men.
The third division was commanded
by S +. Clark and aids, and was made
up of clubs not in the League, a mis-
c%ellaneous company Of ~bycyclists, and
professional riders, and included some
of the most interesting features of the
whole procession. The regulation dis
lance e feet was very generally main
tanned, and in several instances the
excellent and uniform riding, at vari.
Gus points along the line, drew out
round after round of applause from the
spectators.

THE RAILROAD BoOW.-The activity
in railroad circles is really unpreceden-
ted. About two ears ago it began in
the South Atlantic States and it is now
at fever heat. Stocks which were
heretofore considered as almost worth
less have now assumed a new impor-
lance because of recent purchase and
combinations which have served to
bring them into the market. The older
and more thoroughly established roads
have felt the impulse proportionately.
Wilmington & Weldon r. X. stock,
for instance, which a year or two ago
if we recollect rightly, commanded but
fifty cents on the dollar, is row at par.
But the most notable increase in the
value of any stock is found in the case
Of the Richmond & Danville X. r.
When in Richmond, about two months
ago, we were told by a gentleman resi-
dent there that about two years since
K. d D. stock was worth but four dol
lars per share, while at that time it was
quoted at 1914. He says hat when it
was at its lowest he had some idle
money, which he thought of investing
in that stock, but that be had taken
the advice of others, and did cot do
so. He was sorry, of course, and we
tender him, as in duty bound, our res
pectful sympathies.
As to the present railway situation,
the New York Bulletin has some re-
marks which are of interest. Accord
ing to it, the present railway situation
far surpasses that which antedated the
grand collapse of 1873. From 1873 to
the end Of 1880, l3, 300 miles of railway
were built at a cost of more than $780,
600, 900, and to-day 5000 miles more
are in course of construction, and A.
600 miles are projected. During this
tine the stock OF railways which have
never paid a cent of dividend has risen
largely above par, under the influence
of combinations. and new projects are
laid hold of by men of capital with an
eagerness which declines to coun: the
investment so long as an opportunity
is open to make one. The Bulletin
says:
Nevertheless, although individuals
may suffer, the country at large will
be benefited by the building of these
roads.-Wil. RerteU.

Captain PEGS Pritchard owns q dog
that he would not part with for the
world. The world Is q pretty large
offer. but he would not accept it for bis
dog Bruno. When in Memphis not
long ago, Bruno got separated from his
master in the crowded street, and when
the Captain went on board a steamboat,
on his return to Little Rock, the dog
was nowhere to be seen. The owner Of
Bruno was much affected by the failure
of his faithful follower to stay with him.
They had travelled many times from
Little Rock to Memphis and back, both
by steamboat and cars. The wheels of
the Marlin Speed turned the requisite
number of times, and Captain Pritchard
found himself in Little Rock. He
mourned the loss of his dog almost a.
much as if he had lost y child, but that
evening, as he sat in his room. there
came q scratching at tho door, and
when it was opened Bruno walked in,
wagging his tail with the most frantic
and evident efforts to wag it of. How
he got home was q nine days wonder.
Captain Pritchard saw 1 conductor of
the Memphis & Little Rock Railroad .
day or two after. who said: Ibid your
dog come homer Eyes. What do
You know about it?'' s.He rode over
from Memphis with me. That's all"
"Wh0 put him on the trainP Iwant to
thank him." "He got on himself,
went into Z passenger car, sat down.
and whencver the train would stop at
any station would shrink back under
the seats. He did mot Try to get Oh q
any station until Little Rock was
reached. When the brakeman opened
the door and shouted Little Rock

THE ISLE OF FLOWERS.

And We came to the Isle q Flowers; their
breath met rs ont on theoeas,
FOR the spring and the middle sumner sat each
on the lap OF the breeze;
ana the red passion-nower to the clifs, and the
dark blue clemAtis, chung,
anu starr d with . myriad blossom the long
cOuvolvulus hung;
And the topm ,st spise Of the mountain was
lines In lieu OF snow,
And the lilies like glaciers winded down, rum
ming out below
ThrO' the lire Of the tulip ana poppy, the blaze
of gorse and the blush
OF millions Of roses that sprang without leaf
or thorn from the bush;
And the whole isle-sde flashing down from the
peak without ever q tree
Swept like a torrent OF gems from the sky to
the blue of the sea;
And we roll upon capes of crocuo and vaunt-
ed our kith and our kin,
And we wall0w'd in beds OF lilies, and chanted
the triumph Of Finn,
Till each like golden image was pollen'd ffom
head to feet,
the middle-day heat.
BlossOm and blossom, and promise OF blossom
but never q fruit!
And we hated the Flowering Isle, as We hated
the isle that was mute.
And we tore up the flowers by the million ana
flung them in blight and bav,
And We left but naked rock, and in anger We
sail d away.
