The Bicycle SulkY.

The discounting of time and dis
lance and the wrecking of records at
Washington Park during last week
will undoubtedly work revolution
in the manner of harness racing in
trotting and pacing gaits, says the

come about on account of the new
tangled continuance which enabled
Nancy Hanks to put in the files
the gallant records of Maud S.,
Sunol and other wonders of the
trotting turf, and then while won

Johnston, Direct and all other great
PAGERS. That the animals are Won
ders themselves there is no question,
but the possibilities of their recent
achievements are unquestionably due
in a great measure to that new
tangled continuance, the icycle
sulky, with its ball-bearing axles and
pneumatic tires. The adoption of
this new sulky in place of the con
ventional high-wheeled and airy
affair which Dexter and Goldsmith
Maid, Sunol and Maud S. hauled
about the track in earning their fame
had much to do in making the new
Queen and King of the turf, Nancy
Hanks and Hal Pointer, for it has
been an admitted principle of me-
chanics that ball-bearing axles were
subject to less friction than the old
style of hub and parallel axle, while
the superiority of the pneumatic
tire over the non-elastic steel or iron
one has been demonstrated beyond
question within the last year.
The virtue of the pneumatic tire
for comfort and speed is not ques-
toned. For comfort it acts as a
spring for the whole vehicle which
it supports, and it is less wearing
on an animal drawing such vehicle
and the rider on it. On non-elastic
tires the jolting and jarring increases
as the speed is increased, and it
worries animal and rider alike. That
the friction is not greater-not so
great, perhaps-is agreed by all
riders of bicycles, the propelling of
those with the pneumatic tire re-
quiring at least no more muscular
expenditure than on the narrower
tire, which may have less resisting
surface. Ball-bearing gearing is adj
mittedly productive of less friction
than the old-fashioned but generally
used parallel axle and hub. Its
principle, like all mechanical princi-
pies, is simple after it is once ex-
amined. In the old wheel the whole
interior surface of the hub presses
against and rests on the surface OF
the axle, offering resistance, when
the hub revolves, at every point OF
surface. The ball-bearing hub is
hollow or gouged out on the surface
which faces the axle, leaving a chan
mel, in which steel balls are placed
The axle is then inserted, and keeps
the balls in the channel prepared
for them in the hub. A portion of
each ball only rests on the axle, and
the resting surface is necessarily de
creased. In motion the balls revolve
against each other and against the
axle, engendering only small per
centage of friction, as compared with
the solid hub and axle. With the
resistance decreased speed OF motion
is of course increased. Th, ball
bearing wheel, many believe, will be
the wheel of the future. For the
lighter class of vehicles there is no
question of it's practicability, as is
demonstrated in its use in the
bicycle, and still more recently il
the racing sulky.-iS. +. Examiner.

Big Field Guns and Their Effect.

If you insist on high velocity you have
to add so much additional machinery to
your gun carriage and have to so greatly
strengthen its construction that you
destroy its mobility, while even if you
gain long range you are still unable to
make use of your most efficient projec-
tile at it. Moreover, since the remain
ing velocity of its shrapnel is a truer
measure of the value of gun than its
initial velocity, and the two are by no
means directly proportional, it does not
follow that we benefit as much as we
might expect by submitting to these
disadvantages. Thus, the 12-pounder
has an initial velocity of over 1,700 feet
per second and a remaining velocity at
5000 yards of 862 feet; while the
13-pounder, with an initial velocity of
only !, $50 feet, has at the same range a
remaining velocity greater by six feet
per second than that of its rival.
One of our highest authorities on field
artillery has, indeed, recorded his opin-
ion, that, as regards the efficiency of
shrapnel, we gain nothing by the in
creased muzzle velocity of 1.-The best field
gun in Europe" at all practical ranges.
Moreover, it is the attempt to squeeze
out the last few extra feet that does all
the harm.-London Saturday Review.

Modern Education.

With all its novel modern powers and
practical sense / am forced to admit that
the purely scientific brain is miserably
mechanical; it seems to have become a
splendid sort of self directed machine,
an incredible automaton, grinding on
with its analysis or constructions. But
for pure sentiment, for all that spon-
taneous Greek waywardness of fancy,
for the temperature of passion and the
subtler thrill of ideality, you might as
well look to wrought iron derrick.
Science found education laundering
peacefully along, cultivating half of the
mind with charming results and letting
the other die of disuse; it worked the
startling miracle of electrifying this
dead half into life and bringing it to
perfect activity, and straightway, salts
fed with this remarkable achievement,
it proceeded to neglect the ideal half
which the classics had made SO much of
and caused it to perish. 1t has substi-
tuted new sort of half man for the old
one.-Clarence King in Forum.

Skill in the Wrist.

1t is wonderful what part the wrist
plays in exercises in which physical skill
and delicacy are required. After a man
learns to play billiards well enough to
be familiar with the cushions and the
English, the important thing to cultivate
is his stroke. 1t is the hardest thing
about billiard playing to get a good
stroke, and sometimes the greatest play
ers fall down" because they lose con-
troll of it. Now, the stroke wholly de-
ponds on the action Of the wrist. Jake
Schaeffer, or any good player, will make
shot of seven cushions with less ap-
parent force than a beginner will exert
in getting three. This is due to the su-
perior wrist movement.
It's the same way with violin playing.
The quality and touch all depend on
wrist manipulation. So with curving a
baseball. Great pitchers always work a
strong wrist movement on the bail as it
leaves the hand. If they didn't it
wouldn't curve at all.-St. Louis Globe
Democrat.

washing Little Indians.

We were camped ar fine Hot Springs
on the Lo Lo trail, made famous in In
dian annals by the escape of Chief Jo-
sepn and his band of Nez Perces. Just
above US was large camp of Flatheads
who were making their fall hunt. One
morning we were awakened by shouts
and cries. Evidently there was great
excitement somewhere, and we promptly
jumped up. 1t was just after daylight
and cold clouds of steam were rising
from the big basin shaped pool at the
foot Of the granite wall, from which
poured thick stream Of boiling water.
The pool was so large that at the lower
edge the water was almost cold. The
nearer you approached to the place
where the water burst from the rock the
better chance you stood Of getting boiled.
At the edge, at point where the water
was of a comfortable temperature, stood
two Indians, one ON the bank and the
other on a stone in the water. Near by
were dozen other Indians guarding a
number of little Indian boys and girls
who had nothing on and were bowling
and crying.
When we looked out of the tent the
two Indians at the pool had an Indian
boy, one holding him by the feet the
other by hands, and were gravely
swinging him backward and forward
through the warm water, while he yelled
at every dip. As soon as they had fin
ished with him he was set upon the bank,
and ran to the willow brush near by.
Then the noise redoubled, for each
child in the group guarded by the In
dams feared that it was his turn. They
all tried to escape to the brush, but their
elders pursued and caught them, unit.
the very last one had been put through
the cleansing prOcess.-New York Sun.

Good Story About a saco Lawyer.

a Saco lawyer lost his Office key and
with it, on the same bunch, the keys to

There is a spring lock on his Office
door, and he concluded that he must
have left it in his Office and have come
out and locked the door. He accord
ingly borrowed a long ladder and
crawled through the back window of
his Office.
No keys were to be seen, and after
cogitating over the peculiar state of af-
fairs he at last let himself out, and there
on the outside of the lock were hanging
the keys.-Bangor (Me.) Commercial.

Locomotive "Jonahs."

"Thre are on nearly every railroad
locomotives that are known as
Jonahs, "said Henry E. Archer, who
has spent twenty years in the SER
vice of the Illinois Central, and is at
present sojourning at the Southern.
Locomotive engineers are not, per-
haps, more superstitious than other
people, but have known more than
one to throw up his position rather
than take out an engine that was re-
garded as unlucky. Some years ago
an engine on an Illinois road blew
up, cutting the freman's head off
with segment of boiler iron. The
engine was rebuilt and made as
good as new, but no engineer could
be found to run it more than one
trip. It was soon whispered about
that it was haunted; that the head
less fireman had an unpleasant habit
of appearing on the tender with
pick and shovel and insisting on
firing up. One night an engineer
and his fireman deserted the loco
motive while out on run, and the
conductor attempted to bring the
train in. He wasn't afraid of ghosts
not hel But he side-tracked at the
FIRST opportunity and waited until
daylight before completing the run.
He told me that the ghost was no
joke; that every time the furnace
door was thrown open the headless
apparition entered the cab, bearing q
shadowy scoop Of coal. For q
month the engine laid in the shop.
Then an engineer, who was COM
PEELED to either take it out or lose
his position, mounted it. Before he
had run . dozen miles it went
through q culvert, wrecked the train
and killed nine people. It was
never rebuilt.-St. Louis Globe
Democrat.

Who Can Beat 1tf

A newspaper puD1sneu at APT,
in Southern France, La Presse,
publishes an account of an extra
ordinary hunting adventure which
lately befell citizen of that town.
A Paris journal, in copying the
story, explains that occurrences OF
the kind never take place except in
Southern France.
But that is not true. Go into
any hunters camp in the wild and
woolly West, and you may hear
yarns just as ingenious, and not a
BIT more truthful flll than than this.
A hunter who had spent q ccn-
siderable part of the day in an un-
successful quest for game, and had
discharged his shotgun many times
without result, caught sight, on his
way home, of a superb pigeon well
up in an oak tree, which grew on q
very steep hillside.
The hunters gun was charged
with powder, but he was entirely
out of shot. In this emergency,
and resolving firmly that he would
have the pigeon, he sat down on
the ground, took out his pocket
knife, and with it pulled several
nails out of the soles of his shoe.
With these he loaded his gun.
The pigeon sat in his place. The
hunter aimed, fired, and the pigeon
was nailed to the branch OF the oak
tree with the shoe nails
The hunter was almost in de-
spair, seeing the game apparently
fastened beyond his reach. But he
climed the tree, ascended with diff.
ficulty to the place where the pig
con hung, and had just taken the
bird off when he lost his footing
and fell through the air.
AS chance would have it, thu
hunter landed in the midst OF {
hare's nest. He began to roll rap
idly down the steep and slippery
hillside; but before he did so ht
seized large hare firmly by the
hind legs.
Rolling downward, the hunter
slid plump into a covey of par
tridges, and striking about hin
with the hare he succeeded in kill
| ing nine of these admirable birds
He then picked himself up ane
took himself homeward with hi
pigeon, his hare, and his partridges
we'll satisfied with the results o
his shot.

Fashionable Kissing.

AS usual, we borrow the new style
from the old world. This is but
natural, since the accurate scien-
tifc knowledge underlying it also
has it's origin in the same source.
Our travelled sisters have brought
with them from across the waters
a manner of saluting each other
which lacks nothing in afectionate-
ness or sincerity because it is no
longer direct contact of the lips
Since the germ theory of disease is
so universally recognized it is like
wise we'll appreciated that the old
manner of kissing is an unnecessa-
'ry exposure to the transmission of
disease. Hence the lips touch both
cheeks, so that each person kisses
each cheek of the person kissed
instead of the mouth.
A certain effect of leisure-like-
wise an old world touch-is the
result of this double kiss, which in
this complimentary way attones for
any suggestion of distance or lack
of ardor. 1t is very pretty to see
the women who ventilate the fads
illustrate this particular one, and
one easily becomes q convert unless
early prejudices are too obstructive
to admit progress in this direction.
AS that argues an obdurate ma
ture, and one not open to the amen
tiles Of life, it is safe to conclude
that the American women, as =
body, will soon be as enlightened in
the practice of an advanced method
of kissing as their dainty foreign
sisters, who have the courage OF
their convictions, and who have
shown us that there is method as
we'll as delight il the act of kissing.

An Interesting Exhibit.

Chief Smith, of the department
Of transportation exhibits, has ar
ranged for an exhibit of the smallest
and most unique railroad system
in the world. This system Is the
property of Daniel Coke, the young
son of i. B. Coke, Of Reading, Pa.
It is perfect in its equipment, and
will be exhibited at the fair just as
it is now in actual operation on the
farm Of the father Of its young
owner. Master Coke will be 10
charge of the exhibit while it ls
here.
The gauge Of the track for this
wonderful system is nine inches.
There are two locomotives, modern
and complete in every detail. Each
engine draws 3 train Of i've cars,
