wont to tLo cIrb Iousc and waited until the
storm was over mt about $3.50 o'clock anu theh
fifty of them started out with thoir lanterns
They went down Eleventh street 10 lehhsyl-
vania avenue, UP the avenue to inc treasury
building then TO tho Arlington, and back
aqniu down the avenue to tho Peace monu-
nlcnt. then back to tho club house..
There were still many people on tho street
to enjoy tho novel sight. Tho riders were
sometimes in single hlc, sometimes by twos,
and uccas onally in crowds.
The pavement was wet, and the electric
livht reflected back from it made
tho surfnce scom like smooth
iea. over which tho ruhber-tirod bicycles
rnssed silently. The bright wheels glistened
in the light but the effect of tho unbnrnished
ones was best, for they could scarcely bo
soon, and tho rider with bis two attendant
lights appeared TO be moving like a bird with
noiscless wings through the air.
The riders were frequently checrod on
their route, and it was very unfortunate that
the rain came just nt that tino TO prevent
the thousands who cnmo early from seeing
tho strange ard interesting performance.
Following Is the list of tho visiting wheel
men, their location in the city, and names oil
