DANIEL j. CANARY.

The Champion Trick and Fancy bicy-
cIist of the World.
Daniel J. Canary, who has won onv,.v.o
fame as scientific bicyclist. was born in
New Haven. Conn, In 1864. and began to
practice fancy riding In 1882. His efforts
were so successful that he devoted his
time entirely to perfecting himself and
learning to do more difficult feats. About
this time he won the championship of the
United States for fancy riding. In 1884 he
won the like honor for the profession al
championship, which event was contested
at the ball Of the Springfield Bicycle Club.
Warren Wood, q man who had established
a reputation for this class OF work in Chi
cago, issued a challenge to Canary to meet
him, and contest the championship of the
United States for $3.50 side. Canary ac-
cepted. and Wood was easily defeated.
For four years following this Canary
devoted his time to tour abroad. visiting
all the European cities, and giving exhi-
kitions OF his skill. He was we'll received,
and returned to this country In 1889.
Canary has done some wonderful special
acts. On October %. 1890. although for
bidden by the authorities, he rode down
the flight Of stone steps leading to the
Capital at Washington. This he did on
the quiet, which was made necessary by
the police, but sufficient number OF wit
nesses were present to preclude the
chance Of the ride being questioned.
Not content with this dangerous expert
ment Canary went to San Francisco and
rode down a flight OF fifty-two steps, first
on an ordinary wheel. and then repeated
the act on the pedals OF single wheel,
having removed the handle bars and back
bone with the small wheel. This is no
doubt, one Of the most fearless feats ever
done on the wheel. Mr.. Canary L. VAL
ued member of the Sprinfleld Bicycle
Club. and Ia prominent /, all its under.
takings. Canary also does the balancing
OF the wheel on chair 81 at placed upon

DIPHTHERIA.

The following strange statement is
condensed from an article in the Iowa
Staats- -Anzeger: In 1889, in Daven-
port, there were 104 deaths from diph-
liberia, and S5 in 1890. OF the total, l85
occurred in families where kerosene or
gasoline was used, and four where ker-
osene and gas were used. The New
York board of health, some years ago,
attributed the disease to the same cause.
In one year in Meriden, Conn, there
were seventy one deaths from diphtheria,
and DIR. Wilson of that city found that
in every one of the families kerosene was
used. In Richmond, Va, q physician
found that of 120 cases in one year 66
were in families using kerosene, five
cases were where kerosene and gas were
used, and only one where gas alone was
the light. The observations seemed to
show that gasoline was especially dan
gerous, since there were more deaths
where this was used freely, as in sum-
mer for cooking purposes. Special dan
ger was also ascribed to kerosene when
the wick. was turned down quite low.
The interest is SO important that the
truth should be known, and though it is
not the habit of the medical profession
to rush into print, there should seem tc
be eminent propriety in making an excep-
tion when, as in this matter, the danger
if there be any, is in SO many homes and
may be easily ended. 1t will be noticed
that the report is only Of cases that were
fatal. It is not said that the disease die
not show itself at all except where ker
osene or gasoline were used.

Joseph P. Hams1ton Dead.

The Free Press, published at Carbon

death of Joe Hamilton, printer who

a man who was we'll known throughout
the Hills. The proprietor of this paper
was intimately acquainted with the de-
ceased and knew him as friend and a
gentleman, and the only enemy he had
on earth, is the very one the ADvBRTIsER
is fighting today. Mr.. Hamilton fire.
quently referred, with much feeling, to
the hold the demon had upon him and
although he saw what the inevitable re-
suit would be be could not shake loose
the claws of the octupus that robbed him
of his money, manhood and life. His
home paper says of him: "The rela-
tions of the writer with Mr.. Hamilton
were close and intimate. We found him
in the New Era Office when we took
charge nearly twenty five years ago.

He was then mere lad but with dispo-
sition and traits of character sufficiently
developed to draw to him attachments
that were only to end in death. As q
boy he had no faults. He was honest,
truthful and faithful. AS he approached
manhood his heart was large enough tc
take in the whole human family. He
would give his last penny to re-
lieve want, and was ever willing to per
form any service when called upon
We do not believe he had an enemy II
the world. His name il craven on th,
heart of every craftsman with whom b
came in contact, and as the news of hi
death goes forth, hundreds Of them vii

CASCADE SPRINGS.

Hot Springs will in short time have
ITO divide the honor and profits arising
from being a Black Hills health resort,
with new town aboutto come into ex-
istence and to be known to the world by
the name at the head OF this article.
A stock company was recently organ
lied and Incorporated under the name OF
the Cascade Springs company, and a
large tract of land purchased, taking in
the springs, which are equal in every re-
spect and superior in some particulars
to the Hot Springs summer resort
now famous throughout the west.
A town has been plated at Cascade
Springs, and from the Rapid City Jour
nal it is learned that the company has
let contract for the erection of stone
bath house. lit will be 37x1l1 feet,
two stories above the basement, and will
contain thirty tubs, 2 plunge tubs, spray
and cooling rooms in fact it will have
every modern improvement regardless
OF cost. The company promises to make
this the finest bath house in the United
States, as it is claimed that the analysis
of these waters show them to be super
ior to any in the United States, and the
company feel justified, therefore, in ex-
pending large sum of money in order
to properly utilize the health giving
waters now going to waste.
Cascade is about nine miles in a
and six miles from the nearest point on
the Minnekahta branch of the B. & NJ,
and from that the fact large coal de-
posits recently found on the Cheyenne
river are but short distance from Cas-
