THEY HAD A E RUN
Trip Of the wheeImen to Silver Crown
Sunday.
Pleasant Ride Out, But the Return Was a
Sore Trial.
When Cold and Hungry They We're Res.
cued.

The wheelmen had a great time Sun
day. Eighteen bikers mounted their steel
steeds as the Cathedral chimes were
sounding and made an suspicious start for
Silver Crown. The preliminary spin was
delightfully."- exhilerating. 1t was a lovely
morning, cool, calm and bright and the
roads were perfect.
A couple of wheels we're disabled on the
first quarter. The owners chained them
to wire fences and Joined the ~congenial
spirits in the comm ssary wagon. The
leaders reached the smelter at Silver
Crown in two hours and a half and the
last nan was in thirty minutes later.
After a pleasant and devastating lunch
cor the boys spent an interesting hour
about the mines.
Signs of rain hurried the start. At the
Crown there was only a sprinkle, but five
miles this way water was running in the
road aud the mud was hook deep. To
wheel became simply impossible and the
athletes drilled and pushed and packed
their machines.
1t was a sorry looking crowd that waded
and walked for ten miles. The exertion
whetted appetites to a razor edge and
weared the sturdy frames. Light cloth
ing lad been worn and the damp air and
cold breeze sent a chill to the very mar
rows.
The wagoners were sent to the Hord
ranch to make humble petition for bread
if pie could not be obtained. Mr.. Hord
loaded the reliet expedition with a young
bake shop. sending milk and an invitation
to come finish at his board. They say the
boys discounted in ravenousnes any min
strel who ever convulsed an audience by
eating a loaf of bread at a bite on the
stage.
At the ranch the distressed bikers were
treated most royalty by Mr.. and Mrs.
Hord and are loud in their laudation of
the open handed hospitality of the Here
ford man and his estimable wife. Mr..
Hord was urging them to spend the night
there when Walt Rodd, the liveryman,
pulled up in front of the house with his
Benton carryall. This was a most agree
able surprise. A Thoughtful man is Mr..
Rodd. He anticipated the dilemma Of
the wheelmen and came to their aid I'm
solicited. Rodd is, OF course. now a hot
f~avorite with the boys. The wheelmen
piled into the capacious rig with then
machines and reached home in a short
time after a day of trials, disappointment
and pleasant surprises.
The incidents Of the initial run were
numerous and will be duly chronicled il
the log of the club. L. L. Pratt and
Will Rishcl, both on high wheels, took
the brush, reaching the Crown in the
lead. Mr.. Pratt distinguished himself
by stopping a runaway team. Tie spec
tators declare it a noteworthy act of dar.
ing.
A meeting Of the riders was held at the
Normandie last evening. All will joir
the old Cheyenne Bicycle club, which
will be revied on a grand scale.

Six New Cars and Five Miles Of New
Line.

Banker T. A. Kent, lessee of the street
railway system, returned yesterday morn
ing from Wichita, Kas., where he pur
chased six cars to be added to the equip.
ment of the Cheyenne lines. They are new,
of fine finish, and of the latest pattern,
One is for the Capitol avenue and boule-
ward service, two for the Fort ID. A. Rus
sell line, and the remaining three are fol
the South Side.
Wichita, Mr.. Kent says. is a own with
pretty, tree lined streets, fine business
blocks and quite handsome residences.
1t has been a hummer, but is pretty dull
just now, Still, they are paving.
The horse car system thsre is being re.
placed by electric lines. They have
twenty miles of street railway and figure
that electricity is cheaper than horse
power.
About five miles of street railway will
be built here this season. The lines will
be out Eddy street t Fort Russell and
over the viaduct to the South Side.
Nearly all the sills for the extensions are
here and the iron will be ordered from St.
Louis or Pueblo probably this week.
While at Denver Mr.. Kent visited the
works of the Silver Lead Soap company,
which concern is moving to place a plant
here. He was favorably impressed with
the establishment and machinery. The
Cheyenne company is to be a home indus.
try and if Mr.. Kent says the word opera,

He Defends the Irish Policy of the
Government.

Government.
LONDON, Oct. 31.-At a meeting OF the
liberal unionists, held at Edinburgh to-day.
Lord Harrington delivered an address, In
which he said that the results Of the recent
by-elections had shown the necessity for
increased activity on the part of the Liberal
Unionist Association, although ID was a
mistake TO predict the issue OF the next
general election from the by-elections.
He feared that unless the liberal unionists
presented their policy more clearly. and
showed greater activity and vigor, the
cause OF the union would pe much en-
dangered.
THEIR IRISH POLICY.
The Irish policy of the liberal unionists
had never been developed as q whole.
Hitherto they had been compelled TO pre-
sent the case too much as the restoration OF
order in Ireland. The remedial side of ths
policy must clearly be placed before par
lament and the country, thus giving the
country chance for its approval, accom-
panied by vigorous condemnation Of the
unscrupulous tactics OF it's opponents.
TIE GOVERNMENT DEPENDED.
Lord Harrington devoted his evenings
speech 10 general defense OF the govern
TnenJ against Mr.. Gladstone's criticisms
He said that coercion was freeing the Irish
people from league tyranny and had made
land more valuable than the wisest local
government. He would not accuse Messs.
Dillon and O'Brien Of cowardice but their
action had thrown strong light on the
condition Of affairs in Ireland. The league
had nearly ruined once prosperous Tippe-
rary. Only the crimes act had prevented such
things from being repeated throughout the
length and breadth Of Ireland. The present
government had, perhaps, made mistakes.
but their work, on the whole, had been

would rather bear reproaches for admins
