LIST. The road will be first-class in

r.. J. Jones and wife, of Honolulu,
were at The Fairhaven yesterday. Mr..
Jones has, until lately, been engaged
in the lumber business, and is now
visiting Puget sound with view to
locating. His father is well-known
and prominent merchant of Boston,
who many years ago resided in Hon
olulu, where his son was born.
Prof. J. M. Greenwood, superintend-
ent of the Kansas City schools, who
comes to the Sound in behalf of the
committee appointed by the National
Educational association to examine Sc
attle's facilities for entertaining the
next National Teachers convention, ar
rived in this city yesterday morning on
the city of Seattle. He was accom-
panied by Mr.. and Mrs. l.. ID. Ross and
Mr.. and Mrs. Il. w. McGinnis, all of
Seattle. He departed for the East via
the Canadian Pacific i'm the afternoon.
L.. II. Badly, late Of Chicago, and J.
b. Badly, of the First National bank,
have purchased the insurance business
OF f. j. kinghorn, and will open up i'm
few days a general real estate and in
surance business. l.. II. Badly, who is
a brother of j. b. Badly, has had a
large experience in the real estate and
insurance business, and the new firm
ought to be a success. j. b. Baldy
will still retain his position with the
First National bank.
Councilman J. j. Donovan, than
whom Fairhaven has no more popular
citizen, returned to the city Yesterday
afternoon, accompanied by his family.
Mr.. and Mrs. Donovan have been max
ing visit of three months duration, to
the New England States. As has been
heretofore mentioned i'm the HER
AID, they were delayed full
week, on their return trip, at Win
nipe2 by the illness of their little
daughter. She has now almost en-
tlrely recovered. Mr.. Donovan
was seen for IA few mo.
ments at his residence, last even
ing by a HERALD representative.
He is looking well, though somewhat
fatigued by the long journey, and only
a brief conversation was had with him.
He reports that the money market at
the East is great deal easier and the
outlook exceedingly hopeful, and it
may he reasonably expected that there
will soon be a revival i'm all branches
of business in this state. Fairhaven
was frequently spoken Of but it is gem
orally understood throughout the East
that the Puget sound region is some
what quiet.

is how to learn to ride quickly and acquire
some speed and endurance without giving
MP too much time to training. Inc great
drawback to most essays on trainingl Is that
a mode of life is advised which Is TOO iar
out of the way of mans ordinary routine

neither the time nor the inconvenience TO
train the way professional would. College

SIGNALS do, for they have the time and gen

training becomes irksome it does him no

taken with no special object in view, for
there is no fear then of its being overdone
For instance, if the novice will take his
wheel and ride off over hills and through
valleys, not caring whether he is going as
fast as he hopes to some day, he will, before
he hardly knows it, have brought his leg
muscles and his lungs into such condition
that he finds he has good speed and endur-
ance when an impromptu test comes. The
main questions in beneficial training are
exercise and rest II the novice works
hard during the day at his business, and
feels like keeping quiet when he arrives
home, il would be a mistake to force upon
himself jaunt through the country, for
his energy has been spent in other ways.
