The next important bicycle event in this
county will be a parade, and all the clubs
and unattached riders have been invited to
participate. 1t has been arranged by the
Hillside Wheelmen, and it's committeeman
are hustling to make it a success. The date
selected is Saturday, August Is, but the
route has not been chosen. A conference
will be held and the line of the run discussed
and adopted. The object of the promoters is
to cover as much ground as possible and to
pass the home of every cycling club in the
county. After the parade the Hillside
Wheelmen viii entertain the paraders at its
clubhouse. 1t is the first general parade, and
if the clubs displayed the proper enthusiasm
1t will be a grand success. A series of these
parades would benefit the clubs, bring IN
attached wheelmen into the organizations
and interest in the pastime young men who
do not ride. In addition the riders will
meet new friends, and it will tend to pro-
mote a strong fraternal feeling between the
several clubs. The paraders will do much
good in this county.
A tournament win be held at Asbury Park
on August 10 and II. The star attraction of
the meet will be the attempt at A. A. Tim

Royce, the present champion for the dis
tance, and Charles Brown of Elizabeth.

than 1:07, even without paeemakers. The
entries for the Junior Athletic Club races to
be contested at the meet are rapidly filling
up, and the general public here are taking a
lively interest. Entries for the Class A
events nave been received from such men as
Royce E. L. Blauvelt, Charles Brown and
Bailey of Philadelphia, and all the Glass B

green and black There are also the
white or colored dials, with figures In
contrasting colors or in metals, as in
the very latest fashion in decoration
there is an artistic combination with
golden dots. This firm sends dials to
America by the hundreds Of thousands
annually, and its rate of supply to the
largest Swiss houses is proportional
The making Of watch hands is one
of the most fascinating adjuncts in the
whole process of watch manufacturing
The chief Swiss handmaking firm has
been in existence through three genera
tions. AS all its heads have been not
ably expert artisans and devoted work
men, it is little wonder that the hands
now produced by this house have be-
come celebrated. The process is so del
icate that the workers must be literally
undisturbed in their work, and the
pieces are so minute that rogue, should
one enter, could easily carry oft large
number unobserved; hence the business
is conducted behind locked doors, and
all outside communications are through
closely barred windows. It's almost in
credible, but here, too, a staff of design
ers is kept busy, for the hands IN form
as we'll as the dials in figures and orna-
mentation must keep pace with fash
ions demands. The standard favorite
designs, however, are the Louis XIV,
the fiower-de-luce and the good old fash
toned spade and open hands. The steel
hands cost quite as much as the ordl-
nary gold hands, because they are so
much harder in the working.
The price Of an ordinary pair OF
hands is, | believe, about s francs, but
| have seen hands there initiated and
studded with tiny diamonds that cost
in the neighborhood of 30 or 40 francs.
Every style and every workman has its
and his own especially cut die with
which the hands are stamped from the
thin and very elastic and highly tenn
pered sheet of steel or from the gold or
silver of which they are to be formed
There is a wonderful machine in this
shop that takes bar of steel half ali
inch wide and fattens it again and
again until it comes out vibrant, elias
tic, and of just the thickness desired for
the hands.-BOston Herald.

Before the fist gun of the gubernato

SIM called the attention OF south Georgia
to the fact that it had a claim on the
governorship that ought to be recog-
nized. and that certainly ought to be
vigorously pushed. Oh, yes, OF course
certainly. Every south Georgia con-
temporary took up the cry, and it look
ed at one time as if the clans would gath
er in the wiregrass regions and on the
coasts. on the banks of the Chattahoo-
chez and the Savannah, and at least
make an enthusiastic campaign for some
gallant son of south Georgia. But the
camp fires have not yet been lighted and
the clans are scattered and silent.-Co-
lumbus Enquirer-Sun.
Don't fool yourself. The clans of the
wiregrass are now rallying to the stand

was born and reared in the county Of

From all parts of the state the cry is

A TRIBUTE TO the SOUTH.

The Baltimore SUMS tribute to the
south is worthy of reproduction: LESS
complaint has been heard from the south
during the last eight or ten months than
from any other part of the country, but
this is aot because the people of this sec
ton have not fell the financial stlingen-
cy, but because they have learned to
suffer and be strong and silent, too. They
are not given to make an cutlery every
time they come to rough places IN the
road of life. For a people, who, prior
to 1860, enjoyed an aptionally luxuri-
Gus existence, the manner in which they
bore ne poverty and privations that fol
lowed the war was amazing in its calm
strength and quiet endurance, and was
fully as heroic as their bearing during
that conflict. The bravery and patience
with which they have since struggled to
redeem their fortunes have been no less
admirable, and their progress toward
prosperity has been noted with heartfelt
interest by their friends in other sec
tons"
