The bicycle zereba is for the purpose of
resisting cavalry, and is formed by some
twenty or thirty machines, which are
stacked on to one another, the men getting
behind the cycles and firing at the approch-

these cycling squares. SO to speak. that the
whole thing can be accomplished in five or
six seconds. Indeed, taken all around, the
military cvclist Is not only n very ingeni-
GUS fellow but q good way ahead of the
ordinary infantryman; in fact. he is really
an infantryman on temporary wheels.

in height, has brown hair and eyes and q
tawny moustache. and is embellished with
q singular hesitation In speech which is
noticeable in conversation, but which leaves
him when he strikes an interesting theme
or makes an after-dinner speech. He is not
at all sensitive on the subject of thisiefect,
and many amusing stories are told respect

One evening Joe Holland, the actor, who
is very deaf. called him away from table
at the Lambs Club to discuss "a gGmbol that
Holland was getting up. Holland was

Rotary of war-Other Names Mentioned.
Special TO The Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.-That Secretary
Proctor will soon. By appointment of Gov.
Page. be Senator Proctor, is. of course, no
surprise. Everybody has known that he
would succeed Senator Edmunds. and,
therefore. while it is very true that thereis
no one here at this moment from whom ac-
curate information could be obtained, still
as it has been known for SO long a time that
the vacancy in the Cabinet would occur
that the possible succession has long
since been discussed, 1t is believed
that Secretary Proctor will not re-
tire from the Cabinet until he is
made Senator, and that does not occur
until November. There are nan names
mentioned. but only that of Gen. Russell A.
Alger is Immediately disposed of by q laugh
of scorn. The late commander-in-chief of
the Grand Army of the Republic. General
Veazey. has been spoken of. but he is
very scant encouragement to press lis
name. Senator Hawley is mentioned also
as a possibility. The President. however.
would probably be very reluctant to take
any one from the Senate at this time. There
Is now q very slim majority OF stalwart Re
publicaDs in that body. A change OF one
or two votes there might enable the silver
men to pass O f-ree-coInage bill over the
Presidents veto. 1t is said that Hawley
will probably not expect another term IN
the Senate, and he might be willing to re-
sign to take q Cabinet position, but no can
not be spared from Congress at this time.
Assistant Secretary Grants name Will be
pressed by his friends.
The selection regarded as most probable
by those who nave been particularly in
terested in the discussion since Mr.. Proc
tors retirement was first spoken of, Is
tina of Ex-Governor Cheney. of New Hamp-
shire. Governor Cheney. and FREE dent
Harrison are warm friends. Mr.. Harrison
offered him this same position, it Ia said.
before the Cabinet was formed. he did
not then feel inclined to accept. but
favored the selection of Mr.. Proctor, whom
the Presidential already aboutdetermined
to give some place in the Cabinet. 1t is
now thought that Governor Cheney would
accept the appointment. He is, therefore,
looked upon as the coming man.

complaint of the Painters Assembly. In
replying to these complaints Mr.. Owen as

crease of pauper immigration. and. as the
best evidence of the governments inter-

their attention to the departments action
In putting a decided check on what serious

Owen has refused to accept the
bond, and has told the trustees
that he will not permit them to pledge the
home of helpless orphans, but that they
must give bond on their own personal prop

thirty paupers will be shipped back to Eu-
