Women Cyclists.

American women of fashion have
been slow to adopt the Partisan craze
it can only be called that-for bicycling,
but it begins to look as if the force of
its contagion has really crept across the
sea. A high class print recently pub
lished a Worth bicycling costume, and
by chance the writer heard day or two
ago at one of the large shops an order
for % cycling gowns of an approved
sort to be sent to Tuxedo. These are
merely straws, but with more that are
discernible seem to indicate the way
the wind is setting. Bicycle fashions are
indeed becoming distinct department.
A golden rule for women cyclists is that
which is vigorously followed by the
thoroughbred horsewoman-allow no
loose ends. Have everything about your
toilet secure. Loosely done hair, flying
ribbons, unnecessary furbelows of any
sort, are to be tabooed. New York

Mohammed's enterprise was backed by

Turks made a breach. but the defenders
under the eye Of Constantine drove them
out and followed beyond the walls The
emperor was so excited that he wanted to
ride through and join the melee outside,
but the imperial suite and guard kept him
back
The Turks succeeded in battering down
the main tower at the Roman gate at the
end of six weeks cannonade. In front of
another gate they rolled up an immense
wooden tower, armored with layers OF
bulls hide. Secreted in the tower, the
Turkish archers shot down the Greeks by
hundreds Constantine and Justiniani
grappled with these two evils in one night,
and to the amazement of the sultan his
wooden tower was burned to the ground
with Greek fire thrown into it by men who
climbed the outside walls with the nimble-
ness of squirrels, and "A new tower was run
up at the Roman gate in place Of the one
thrown down.
On the 2sth of May, the eighth week of
the siege the fiery sultan gave the order for
grand assault the following day, but not
without summoning Constantine to sur
render under pain of the usual pillage aud
massacre If the assault carried Constan-
tines advisers begged him to withdraw and
save his life, but to the sultan he said, I'VE

promised kingdom to the first of his sol

rest license to pillage for three days The

their duty was TO cut down in cold blood
