What Keeps the Bicycle Upright?

Let US suppose cyclist mounted
on his wheel and riding say to-
ward the north. He finds himself
beginning to tilt over toward his
right. He is now going not only
north with the machine but east
also. He turns the wheel east
ward. The point of support must
of necessity travel in the plane of
the wheel; hence it at once begins
to go eastward, and, as it moves
much faster than the rider tits, it
quickly gets under him, and the
machine is again upright. To one
standing at distance. in front Or
rear, the bottom of the wheel wall be
seen to move to the right and the
left, just as I moved the foot of the
skeleton frame a moment ago. I
conclude then that the stability of
the bicycle is due to turning the
wheel to the right or left, whichever
way the leaning is, and thus keep
ing the point of support under the
rider, just as a boy keeps upright
on his finger broomstick standing
on it's smallest end.

Sweet the exultance OF song, OUT 'ue

Under the JOY that is felt lie the minute

Growing the glory revealed is the glory

Vast the created and beheld, but vaster

Space is as nothing to spirit, the deed is

The heart of the wooer Is warm, but

Twin voices and shadows swim star

Not Generally KNOWN.

Standing by friend. the other day,
I expressed wish TO know which was
the north. He at once pulled out his
watch, looked at it and pointed to the
north. asked him whether he had a
compass attached to his watch. "AII
Watches" he said, ARE compasses."
Then he explained to me how this was.
Point the hour hand to the sun, and
the south is exactly half way between
the hour and the figure twelve on the
watch. For instance, suppose that it is
four o'clock. Point the hand indicat-
ing four to the sun and two on the
watch is exactly south. Suppose that
it is eight o'clock; point the hand indi-
eating eight to the sun, and the figure
ten on the watch is due south. My.
friend was quite surprised that I did
not know this, but I feel sure that many
share my ignorance.

Eighty per cent. of my patrons are
cranks!" was the startling statement of
q model-maker.
The man who fashions things OF
beauty and complication out of brass
from mere drawings and inventors pat
terms did not wink his eve when he
made that statement. On the contrary,
he appeared as if the opportunity to
fire shell into the inventors camp had
arrived.
This may appear rather harsh, " he
continued, ~but it is true, nevertheless.
We have all sorts of calls for models
Some are really sensible, and turn out
to be practicable, but they average only
about three in one hundred"
How do these crank inventors act
when they bring their treasures to the
model shop?"
Gas I have been in the business for
many years, 1 can distinguish a crank
by the way he enters my shop. 1t gen
orally takes him three hours to conclude
a long harangue about what wonders
his greatest OF all greats will accom-
plish in the world of machinery.
DO these cranks, as rule, pay up
promptly?"
4Yes. Their existence seems to be
wrapped up In the invention, and models
must be made to aid in placing it on
the market, even at the cost of every
stick of furniture in the homestead"
Glow does a genuine crank inventor
act after he gets his models ?"
"Just like a child with a novelty. Oh
course he excuses his carefulness and
pride by profuse statements about the
law of supply and demand and the won.
derful changes wrought by new in.
ventions."
what particular line of inventions
do the cranks favor ?"

Rfders-
Washington is distinctiveIy q city on
wheels. Nobody there walks If there is
any chance of riding. Everybody rides
for fun-be it on horseback, in carriage,
on bicycle or tricycle.. OF the promi-
nent men who are riders, none perhaps
has a more picturesque figure than
Senator Stewart of Nevada. The old
Senator is passionately found of driv-
ing, and driving hard and fast. He is
said to wear out pair OF horses every
three months, but as he is able to af-
ford the luxury that is his business and
not ours. He keeps span of roadsters
that are able to do their mile in three
minutes or less, and he pushes them
nearly up to that speed for an hour or
two. Senator Hearst, of California, as
everybody knows, has one of the finest
stables of race horses in the country.
Yet down in Washington he drives
about with an old plug" which hangs
its head humbly and trots as if it bad
corns on its heels, and the carriage he
drives Is an old weather-beaten carry
all, with lop-sided spring and frayed
upholstering. Mrs. Hearst has a fine
pair of carriage horses. Roswell P.
Fowler also has fancy for worm eaten
vehicles and this summer rode in one
of the most rickety outfits ever seen in
Washington. Vice President Morton
has the finest equipage in town. The
foreign ministers show up poorly on the
avenue and few of them own their car
riages. The attaches of the Chinese
Legation are, however, fond of riding
about town in an open carriage. The
Japanese legation has some exceedingly
fine carriages of American make. One
brougham must have cost 50, 900. That
picturesque Russian drosky which an
attache of the Cars legation used to
drive about the streets has disappeared
altogether, and no member of the diplo-
matte corps rides in a vehicle character
istic of the country which he represents.
Senator Stanford keeps a good stable,
and Senator Edmunds has one of the
finest pair of carriage horses in the city.
Mr.. Blaine's great friend, Representative
Hit, of Illinois, has the finest stable of
which the popular branch of Congress
can boast, though Mr.. Hayes, of Iowa,
has the fastest horses and the greatest
number of them.
The great variety of vehicles owned
by Uncle Sam must not be forgotten in
an account of the appearance of Wash
ngton on wheels. In addition to the
large number of department wagons of
all sizes and shapes, innumerable
Senate or House mail wagons, post
Office delivery carts, and collection am
balances and military post carryalls,
there can be seen every day very
strange government vehicle-a steel
box on wheels, guarded front and rear
by heavy metal bar work, and also by
five or six armed men. This is the
Treasury Department money wagon,
which often rolls down the street with
$5,OOO,OO or $1O,OOO,OOO aboard. N

n1usol., Acnin.r st.nn,.

Martin Helms, trackwalker of the
New Orleans and Northeastern Rail
road, had an exciting race with special
train of that road Monday afternoon,
which he will not be likely to repeat
for many days to come. In fact it Is
seemingly a miracle that he still lives
to be able to tell the story.
Helms employment Is to guard the
long trestle that spans Lake Pontchar-
train and to follow all ingoing and out
going trains, so as to extinguish what
ever Goals, if any, may have dropped
from the engine in its transit across the
trestle. On Monday evening about
o'clock Helms, having made his usual
tour, started to return to his camp. 1t
was Just about dark. When about two
miles out on the trestle the railroader,
who was manipulating a tricycle., heard
In the distance the ominous rumbling of
wheels. No train was scheduled for
that hour, and hence no danger appre-
hended by the trackwalker W hen leav-
ing for camp.
It suddenly flashed upon the mind of
the helpless man, who was without
means of signalling to the engineer of
the fast approaching train, that the
danger which menaced him was a
special. A desperate but short contest
then followed between muscle and
steam, the peril of the trackwalker urg-
ing him to superhuman efforts in plying
the tricycle. so as to reach point of
safety. The result may be conjectured.
Even before Helms himself realized how
close upon him was the powerful iron
horse, he was struck by the engine and
hurled from the trestle to the ground.
al ~ 0E he ID
vancing special had seen the obstacle
on the track, and reversed the lever
otherwise the consequences would most
certainly have proved fatal. The
special train was stopped and Helms
picked up and conveyed to the city.
The tricycle. was wrecked. It was dis
covered after thorough examination
that with the exception of severe cut
in the right leg, the man had miracul-
ously escaped further injury. -Ne1O

my girls give me notice whenever I
take the liberty of absenting myself
from the house for any length of time, y
said a young matron. "The other day
I left Mary Jane with the baby for
three hours; when came in she was
all ready to give notice, but before
she could speak, I began to find fault
with the dining-roOm closet; and from
that I went into the hall and seolded
about that, and she was so surprised
about that she forgot to keep up the
dignity of her position, 1 suppose.
What an ideal I would not stand
it; what do you keep her for?" asked
her companion with the audacity of in
experience.
%Oh, I don't know; I suppose I keep
her to give her place to entertain her
friends and have little pocket money"
and the young housekeeper settled
back with a regretful sigh.
