A Proposed Experiment in Connection With
the District National Guard.
The bicycle was introduced into the British
army about 1883. 1t has been found useful
in light cavalry work and is also much used
by orderl,es for carrying dispatches and mes
sages.
In view Of its popular use in Europe. par.
ticularly by the volunteer forces, the National
Guards OF this country are taking lively in.
terest in anticipation Of its adoption in the
different states. Connecticut leads the way
and the bicycle corps OF the first regiment il
beginning to do good work.
A number ofgentlemeu in this city have been
called to attend a preliminary meeting ola pro
posed bicycle military company. to organize q
cavalry bicycle service, to be composed Of
place next Wednesday evening at 7:S0 at No.
IT'S 18th street northwest.
The bicycle now in Use for military service
that has been approved by some of the military
authorities weighs ffty-fivs to sixty pounds, in.
GLIDING the rifle and kit.
The rifle is carried in grips on the right aide
Of the rider, from which it can easily be re-
moved. and it lies along the center Of the
machine.
The signaling flag ia carried fastened to the
front fork OF the machine. Every bit of space
Is utilized. The knapsacks are placed in front
and another pocket is fastened to the saddle.
In one OF these compartments are arranged fol-
cartridges, bicycle instruments and other neces-
saries.
1t is argued in favor of the military wheel.
men that i'll case of action they can advance
more quickly than infantrymen and after dis
mounting and detaching their rifles they would
be as effective. One bicycle maneuver is the
forming Of n shelter for the defense Of road.
The machines are stacked side by side and
form defense for the men, who fire from be-
hind them. This defense is particularly strong
against cavalry. The machines are noiselesi
and can be transported by rail much more easily
than horses.
The cost and staying power of the bicycle. i,
is claimed, make it superior to a horse for
many kinds OF service. The new safety bicycle
can be run over almost any kind Of a road, and
the interest in this kind OF work il increasing.
1t is proposed to drill first without guns at
tacbed to the bicycle, and this proving salts
factory the experiment may be made with the

WANTS BETTER TREATMENT.
b. Shepherd Whites Complaint and Judge
Bradley's Caustic Comments.

y
Bradley's Caustic Comments.
3. Shepherd White, by his attorney. Geo. K.
French, this morning filed a motion for contin-
uance. his trial having been set for Monday next
He asked that the court granthim continuance
indefinitely or at the discretion Of the court
until he is in proper condition Of health to
direct his defense and to Withstand the mental
and ply cal strain Of trial.
The reason he gives is that no has received
such ''inhuman treatment at the hands Of the
authorities Of the jail wherein he is confined, {"
and a result is seriously ill.,
He AYERS that on the morning Of last Wednes-
day defendant was directed by deputy or
guard of the Jail to battle in the Jail bathing
tank with n considerable number of the other
inmates Of the jail. The defendant respectfully
informed the deputy that 1t was his custom to
battle every night in his cell and he asked
to be excused from this indignity. The deputy
then ordered that the defendant be placed
on dry. as il is termed, that i'd, that he be al
lowed only water and eight ounces Of bread
twice u day. As a result Of this restricted diet
and his confinement and limited amount OF
exercise it needs but very slight cause to de-
velop a mere indi5position into a severe illness,
Defendant submits to the court that he has
committed no offense for which he should be
punished in such a manner, inasmuch as during
the three months OF his confinement he has
conducted himself in every way as a "model
prisoner" as any officer or inmate of the jail
can testify. He therefore asks that the court
grant him the desired continuance.
JUDGE BRApLEYs COMMENTS.
When Mr.. French concluded Judge Bradley
announced that in his opinion there was no
doubt that there should be an investigation of
the Jail. The revelations that were made in the
Moore case were such as to convince him that
there were serious violations Of the principles
OF humanity going on within the walls
OF the District Jail The Jail was no.
the proper place to inhict inhuman
punishment, but in the Moore case it was ad-
mitted that brutslities were committed. Moore,
the judge said. would probably never have been
such a brutal man if it had not been for the
brutal treatment he had received. II the story
White told was true one it was evident he had
not been properly treated.
Mr.. French, Whites attorney, said that be
would no: press the motion if he was assure
that White would be given sufficient and proper
food until his trial.
United States Attorney Cole promised to in
form the authorities Of the jail OF what had
transpired in court this morning, and with the
understanding that White was to receive better
treatment the motion was withdrawn.
