Feats OF Pedestrianism.

Probably the greatest pedestrian feat
Of the century performed in the United
Kingdom was that Of Bob Carlisle, who
completed in 1883 the unprecedented
feat of walking 500 miles in 100 days.
The task was performed TO test the capa.
bilities OF a moderate drinker as oom.
pared with the endurance Of a total ab.
stainer. The distance was covered by
repeated journeys between Heaton, Nor.
ris, Blackpool, Manchester, Oldham,
Rochdale, Bury and Broughton.
Weston, the abstaiuer, only COM
pleted 5000 miles in the same period.
In January, 1879, Weston walked 1874
miles in 1000 consecutive hours, mar
yelous feat OF endurance. For a single
days walking W. Howes stands first,
having covered 127 miles 2)O yards in
twenty-four hours at the Agricultural
Hall, Islington. The greatest distance
walked in one hour was eight miles 172
yards, 1y w. Griffin in 1891, aud in
four hours wa, III miles, by w. Franks
in 1882. The greatest distance ran in
one hour was eleven miles go yards by
LOUIS Bennett in 1868. Spare No

ncighboring resorts
There were few present Of more than
local importance, and it was simple
affair soon over. Mr.. Cleveland shook
each guest by the hand, and Mrs. Cleve-
had pleasant word for all and warm
pressure of the hand.
Many of the country people made
thcms Ives at home about the place, in
stead OF quietly departing after presenta
ton. Tney ambl2d about the verandas,
peeped into windows II catch a glimpse of
the furn shings, and some of the young
people went down on Mr.. Clevclnnd's
DO t landing, helped themselves to his
rowboat, aud padded about to their
hearts delight. Others ran pell nell
over the neatly-kept laws, investigated
the stables, and even the chicken house,
which is being rcmodclcd for an office
for Mr.. Cleveland's private secretary.
Mr.. Cleveland was jovial and unusual
ly cordial to his Cape Cod neighbors,
who persisted in oh aiming something
more than mere nod and handshake
from the nominee. G. y. Chambcrlayne
introduced the visitor, to Mr. and NJ s.
Cleveland, and made short speech of
welcome to Cape Cod to the distinguish
ed couple. Mr Cleveland responded.

The NEGROES ARE DRIVEN 60T
Kuklux Methods Leave Them No
Choice but to Go.

Special to the N. Y. World.
Ell RENo, OKLA. Commissioner
J. NJ. Bishop, Of Cleveland County,
where the whites are determined no ne.
grocs shall locate, was seen by a World
correspondent in regard to the race war
there. He said that "when Oklahoma
was opened to settlement there was n
large immigration Of negroes to that
county that located on claims, principally
in the timber. They began clearing
small places for cotton aud tobacco, and
have been quite successful in their efforts
to earn livelihood.
The white portion of the county is
principally made up of citizens from
rex.s, and the influx of negroes is about
to wrest from them politicol control of
the county. 1t has so incensed the whites
that they have commenced the old Kuklux
cr,urrvmg ynu bMcK s6tttefs out
From ten TO fftcen- mon, under cover of
night, wait upon a negro settler aud warn
him that he is not wanted, and give him
notice to leave, upon pain of death.
1t has the desired effect.
The negro is in such fear Of assassin a.
tion that he will not volunteer any infor
.mation that will apprehend Kukluxers.
Z They are leaving the county by the score,
abandoning their claims and the fruit OF
their labor.

Recent reports from Germany indicate
that Kaiser Wilhclm's military forces are
to be made the subject Of another high.
ly diverting expei iment. They are to
be taught to sing. 1t is not that this ac-
complishment is expected to be used in
actual conflict, though, facetiously ob.
serves the Chicago News-Record, the
singing of some people has often been
known To inspire emotions OF profound
terror on the part of tt cir auditors. No

will insure its adootiou as part of the

greatly increases the strength and endur-
ance of the lungs. The spectacle OF au

of course, be heroic. Bat neither is any
military drill in the early stages. The
question arises, however, as to why this
valuable physical exercise is restricted to
the armies. If, as several eminent
savants testify, the simple habit of sing

longation Of life, why not mike its
