John Redmond's Crowd.

There appears to be no CONSERVATION
among the party of which John Red
mond is now the principal parsonage.
Their private utterances are full of fight
almost wildly so. AT the meeting
which the party held Thursday the coun-
ellis were almost unanimous. They
agreed that nothing could be done till
after the funerals They deputed Red
mond and Pierce Mahoney to go to
Brighton and beyond that did little else.

BICYCLING BREVITIES.

The Right Rev. A. Cleveland Coke, of
Buffalo, recently stirred up the wheelmen
and wheelwomen by stating that bicycling
is grossly immodest as well as ridiculous
for women when they ride on city streets.
Bicyclists will hold big tournament at
Chicago July "a and 25 There are many
live wheelmen in Chicago.
Wheeling fourishes in Buffalo, where
many miles of asphalt streets fill want in
the bicyclist's nature. Riding on asphalt
requires little effort, and the wheelman
feels as we imagine bird must feel as it
flies through the air.
The big tournament at Peoria, his, will
occur Sept. IS and 10 this year.
C. S. Davol, c. E. Randall-who is the
