ant, talk with you that morning at the
table, and did not buggy call at your
house before daylight that morning. and

A Mile Made in 1:44 3-5 on the N

A Mile Made in 1:44 3-5 on the New
Invention.
ASHLAND, Wis, March ga re-
markable trial of speed on the winter
cycle, the invention of G. 7. Firth Of
Chicago, took place on Chequame gon
bay this evening. The machine is Of
great lightness and high gear. 1t was
ridden mile in l :4435, and three
miles in 4 AZ 1-5. The rider went
five miles over a partially crusted
surface in very quick time. It is the
fastest time ever ridden on a machine
propelled by human force. The fastest
mile was made by George w. Clifford.
The machine consists of driving
wheel and two runners attached to an
ordinary bicycle frame, and il is so con-
trived that it can be attached to any
machine in a few minutes. A fork is
run from the front fork OF the bicycle
frame to the forward runner, thence to
the rear runner and thence to the bicy-
Gle frame again.
The wheel of the rider is thus upon
the runner or skates, which are made
OF the lghtest material possible. The
power of propulsion is furnished by the
driving gear OF the machine. The chain
gearing is attached to propelled drive
wheel set in a movable frame pivotsd ct
the back of the machine, allowing this
drive wheel to be constantly upon the
surface OF the ice or snow, and thus
overcoming all irregularities met. The
only pressure upon this wheel is its
own weight and tbst distributed to it
through the action from the rider upon
the pedals. The angle OF strain from
the chain may be so adjusted and
changed, by raising or lowering the piv-
OF ON the drive wheel frame, that the
reaction upon the driving mechanism is
brought to the lowest possible point.

UNION PACIFIC MATTERS.
OMAHA, March 29.-General Solicitor
Thurston, of the Union Pacific, today
proposed to the employees that the wage
question be referred to a commissioner.
Grand Chiefs Arthur, Clark, Sargent
and Wilkinson, and their attorneys, ex-
pressed themselves as not favorable to
this plan. They say that they want
first certain principles of law laid down.
Then if there is any disagreement. it
can be referred to q commissioner. The
principal questions which they wish
passed upon are these: The status Of
labor organizations in court; the ques-
ton of constructive mileage and the
stability of the rules and regulations
governing employment.
"The Union Pacific claims," they
say, that the employees contend that
the rules and regulations are in the ma
ture of contract. We do not contend
that way. What we claim is that they
are in the nature OF an institution
grown out OF 20 years experience, and
as such are entitled to great respect"
