Wheelmen Coming.

CITIZENS.

From the "Wheei" column of SATURDAYS
Post Dispatch we extract the following items
of interest local to this section: "For the
first time in the history of st. Louis cycling
the ride from Arcadia, 100 miles away, was
plish it were Pi of. c. H. Stone, w. W. Frank
Hackstaff and Post Dispatca reporter, and
the days chosen were last Saturday and Sun
day. The ride to the depot Friday evening
was made in a drenching rain, aud from that
time on the fates deluged the cyclers' road.
Arcadia was reached ut p. NJ, and excellent
accommodations were received at the hands
of Landlady Robertson. who furnished the
wheelmen with everything at half rates, be-
gan a series of courtesies that were extended
by all the hotels along the road-at Farming
ton, DeLassus and De Soto. The warmest
welcome was extended along the route, and
the fact couldn't be impressed too strongly on
the travellers that the same privileges would
be accorded any and all wheelmen passing
through. The road from Arcadia to Ironton
is pretty little run of a mile, and another
good stretch runs out to Pilot Knob, two
miles away; but beyond that the road to Iron
Mountain is a terror to any one that doesn't
want to walk seven out of the first eight
miles. From Iron Mountain to Pennington
the stretch is excellent, and it is doubtful il
anything could be found better than it. The
variety i marked. The hills are not infre-
quent, but they are not steep, and a pleasant
diversion occurs at Stone Hill, which is GER
tainly unique. 1t is about a mile long and
has an incline steep enough to allow coast
ing. The surface is entirely of stones and
the road as it winds down the hill looks for
all the world like the bed of some dead tor
rent. The excitement of riding down such
a peculiar descent, where eye and muscle
must be held so firm, is one not often met
WITH Then follows description of the
remainder of the route. The article closes
with this paragraph: "The result of the
ride is that the beauties of the Southern roads

ASketch of the Career of the Ch a RIM
ing SOngstress.


The brilliant songstress who appears in
Minneapolis on Monday evening, and at St.
Paul on Tuesday, was born in Nevada. She
early exhibited so remarkable quality and
heXibiity of voice that she was sent to Paris
for musical education; there she immedi-
ately attracted the attention of the
wife of a California millionaire, Mrs
Mackay, who made her her protege
and gave her several years in both
Paris and Italy, of the best instruction the
most distinguished masters could impart.
Her debut in opera in Florence, Milan, Ma
Piles, etc., was attended by the most extrava-
giant expressions of enthusiasm by
press and people, She was imme-
diately engaged by Caralho, of the
Opera Comique of Paris. Delibes wrote for
her the opera of "Lakme." and her Paris
debut was a repetition of the brilliant success
of Italy. After two seasons of uninter-
rupted triumphs in Paris Nevada W as en-
gagged by Col. Mapleson for Her Majesty's
Opera company, and she last year alternated
with Patti in New York. Chicago and the
other principal cities of America. Nevada is
the only singer who has ever been able to fill
the house on off, nights when Patti was a
member of the company, but she accom-
pished this last season without difficulty.
Her success at the May festival in Chicago
was something phenomenal. and her San
Francisco experience was an unparalleled
ovation. She has just returned from the
latter city after repetition of her former
experience, and will appear in Minneapolis on
Monday evening and in St. Paul on Tuesday.
