The Automatic Cycle Hirsr.

A western genius has invented a com.
bined clock and automatic cycle birer The
clock is 30 arranged that the rider who has
hired the machine can at all times tell just
how much Of his allotted time has elapsed.
Before leaving the hiring establishment the
clock Is set for the length Of time the wheel
has been paid for. When half that time
has elapsed, the clock rings a bell, and a
plate on It's face is exposed stating that the
rider has the wheel 40 much longer at his
disposal. At the end Of the time paid for
the clock, after giving five minutes warn
ing by ringing a bell, locks the wheel 80 IL
cannot be ridden and exposes upon It's face
the name and address OF the wheels owner
accompanied by notice that q reward will
be paid by him for Its return. Should the
rider desire 70 continue his journey he can
do 10 by dropping the amount due for an
other hours use Of the wheel into slot
provided for that purpose, whereupon the
obliging clock unlocks the wheel, and the
transaction starts all over again.

North End kickers

A large crowd OF spectators Is expected
at tomorrow's football game on Dexter
street grounds, the contesting teams
being the Y. Nj. &. AS and North Ends
OF this city In the Mayors Charity Cup
series. Each team Is confident of It's abil-
ity to lower the colors OF It's opponent,
but disinterested critics are 10th to pick
the winner. McFarlan OF the North Ends
Is the goal keeper OF undisputed suprem-
acy In this section, but the work of Han
naway In last Saturdays game has caused
no end OF comment, and he bids fair to
share tho honors with his noted rival to-
morrow. The result will be carefully
watched. Cameron should be able to
break away from the North End backs
and treat the spectators to some OF his
now famous dashes. The game Will de-
velop some sport OF the highest order and
ought to be well supported.

course all that remains before
these vsgaries become operative
is for congress to receive notice
Of the demands made by Pleasant
