In the initial organization of the bodies
of military cyclists the authorities enlarged
upon the greater functions of the riders,
who, as seen above, might be employed as
infantry. In the armies of the Continent
cyclists as ru!e are employed in perform
ing duties Of minor Importance.
For Mounted Infantry Duty.
To use bicyclists as mounted infantry is
precisely one of the points of great impor-
tance emphasized by General Miles. tIn
the case" he said "of two commanders
striving to reach strategic point, it seems
clear to me that man whose army could
travel 30 miles a day on bicycles, or who
could move his army even four or five miles
day faster than his enemy, would have
half won the battle. Why, he could arrive
and be firmly intrenched before the other
fellow could get within three days of him."
A word now as to the machine to be used.
Nearly every country has used the ordinary
big.wheel bicycle, the tricycle. and tandem
wheels. The ordinary bicycle, though an
excellent touring machine, is not we'll
adapted to military purposes, compared
with the safety bicycle. The height is
greater and the rider more conspicuous; the
weight is high up and almost over the cen.
ter of the front wheel, so that when it
strikes an obstacle there is danger of taking
a header. Difficulties also arise

II Popular Su perstition Counted Columbus
Would Never Have Found imerica.
When all was in readiness for the great
voyage of discovery. Columbus confessed
himself to the friar of LII Rabida, as did
many of the others, and the fleet sailed,
with gloomy prediction of the enforced
crews and the execrations of their friends
on the shore. This was on Friday, August
8, 1892.
1t is Gu rious coincidence of events and
days that Columbus started on his great ex-
pedition Friday; he first discovered the
we stern shores on Friday; he commenced
his return voyage TO Spain on Friday, and
1t was on Friday that he reached the port
of Palos.
1t must be remembered that the calendar
has been changed since the discovery of
Coumbus, and the exact anniversary of the
discovery is nine days later, or October 81
by our calendar Washington's birthday
and other anniversaries have been changed
to suit the new calendar, but Discovery Day
remains according to the old chronology.

The success, detailed above, Of the first
employment OF cyclists as cavalrymen led
to the formation in England, by authority,
of several bodies of military cyclists A
cyclist corps, known as the Twenty-sixth
Middlesex, probably the most thoroughly
organized body of wheelmen in the world,
was created by direction of the War Secre-
tary, composed of 120 men of all ranks
There is also in England we'll formu-
lated scheme for training the regular SOL
diers as cyclists, at Aldershot under the
superintendent of the gymnasium inspec-
tor. Besides, volunteer battalions have
been granted permission to organize cyclist
sections within their establishments, tho

The question of the employment of Cycles
for military purposes is thus brought prom
inently into notice in this country and
shonld receive careful consideration, for .

djstin ct military advantages One of these
is that by the use Of bicycles . commanding

stategic points before the enemy. This is
regarded as one Of the most urgent require

who possesses this power will have an

as regards carrying arms, ammunition and
| kit, and finally the labor of mounting and
dismoGnting is greater. The safety bicycle
appears from all points of view to be the
best all round machine. The machine runs
easily over considerable obstacles and is
practically safe while running down hill
The same machine can be ridden by both a
tall and short man. All that a soldier
needs can be easily packed on the safety.
Finally, for convenience of mounting, the
safety bicycle has no equal. TrIcycles pos
sess the advantage of stable equilibrium:
the rider can halt without dismounting and
can turn about easily; but its progress
especially on rough roads-is not so rapid,
and it could be taken across country only
with considerable difficulty.
What Soldier Cyclists Can Do.
To close the subject of war bicycles the
following is taken from paper by Colonel
A. R. Savile, professor of military tactics
at the Royal Military College, Sandhurst,
England:
The speed and tho staying power of cy.
+. cltsts qualify them for employment in all
the duties pertaining to messengers, order
lies or dispatch beare rs both in peace and
war The establishment OF relay posts of
cyclists on any long line on which messages
nave to be sent would insure very rapid
transmission. A practical proof of this we
have just had in the sending of a message
from Ch1cago to New York over 1000 miles
of road in five days.
The speed and noiseless progress of bicy-
cleS mt them as a means OF communica ton
between the fractions of an outpost force
both by day and night and between out
posts and the main body. The same qualifi-
cations and the inconspicuous character OF
the rider make them eligible as scouts or re-
connolterers in any enclosed and cultivated
country.where the operations are mainly
confined to roads. Cyclists. being infantry,
can d1smount and go wherever infantry can
go, and thus small BODY of wheeIlnen has
nothing to fear from an equal body OF horse
men similarly engaged in scouting.
AS an escort for guns they would prove
emclent. for all such infantry duties can be
more quickly done by wheelmen.
In the United States there are three or
four militia bicycle organizations, but their
usefulness has never been put to any test.
II the War Department wishes to encourage
the formation of. corps it should prepare
rules for their guidance, muster them into
service and compel them to work with the
regular troops during certain specified
times. j. T. B.

were already in sufficient training to volun-
teer for active service in the field, all they
needed being "rife slung across their
backs, cartridge boxes and well defined
duties" However, not until 1885 were
military cyclists employed in England. and
then they made a very successful expert
ment, using them as scouts during the East
ern maneuvers.
Wheels Instead OF Horses.
A couple of years later a commander dur
ing some evolutions, finding himself short
of cavalry, conceived the bold idea Of using
cyclists as scouts on the fanks of his line of
march. This was scratch cyclist corps
made up of volunteers and civilians, some
of whom had no military knowledge what
ever, but they soon fell into what was re-
quired of them. The main body of cyclists
moved forward in the center of the road,
while the fankers on their bicycles secured
the country from eight to ten miles on each
side. During these same maneuvers two
picked wheelmen were sent out on q special
mission and rode 30 miles in just under five
hours. though much Of the road was in bad
condition,

Quite Lively Racing Season.
So far this season there has been nothing
to complain about concerning the horse rae
ing at the various tracks 1t is some time
since there has been such boom all round.
Juggling from published reports the tracks
in the East, West and South are doing
splendid business and what is very satistac-
tory, lots of people are making money. A
day or Two ago noticed that very good
authority on the American turf stated that
the average class of the American runner
this year is better than it has been for
years. While this statement NAV or NAV
not be true the fact remains that there are a
very large number of very good race horses
this year in the United States. While we
may not see the performances of Foxhall
and Iroquois repeated, we doubtless have
some as fine thoroughbreds as ever
stepped on track.

Do not hesitate to join the move
ment for the emancipation of the peo-
pie because you do not agree with all
the views of those seeking an asylum
in the new party. This is no valid
objection, but rather a reason why you
should join it. Conservative men are
wanted in all new movements. Very
few of the members of the old parties
are in entire accord with their parties,
nor can party be formed that will
exactly agree on all questions. 1t is
enough that they agree on leading
topics and you can safely rely on the
wisdom of the majority when the vic
tory is gained. The first duty is to
unite all the dissatisfied elements and
clense the Augean stables.
