TO GOZAD, NEB,. AWHEEIo

Sis a. m. Friday, July Is, 1895.
well, here we are, shut up at little
farm house eight miles east Of Grand
Island, on account Of rain. but looking
as though it would soon blow over.
We waited at the club rooms until
5:l5 Thursday morning but as no one
came we started out. Presume they all
thought it looked too stormy to start.
We ate breakfast at Milford at 7:45. A
few miles beyond Milford a plug in
Willis wheel sprung leak" and delayed
us % minutes. Half an hour later the
same cause delayed us 90 minutes more.
The strong wind bothered some but
made it deliciously cool. Turning north
We struck mile strip smooth as
floor and hard as rock and with the
wind pushing us, pedalled merrily
along, making it in ID minutes and rode
to Tamora. Here we only stopped
long enough TO get lemonade and rode
on until rain stopped us at 1870 where
We put up at the farm of Mr.. Bouchard,
who, with his daughter, received us
with the kindest hospitality, offering us
lodging for the night and as long as we
cared to stay, and urged us to stop with
them on the return trip. Have found
all farmer folk very sociable and liberal.
Rim ceased at 2:15 and we started
again, reaching Utica without further
delay. Did not stop. About a mile
from York We overlook Miss Maud
Bayard of that town ION diamond
frame and wearing bloomers) who es-
corted us in, taking US to restaurant
owned by her uncle, Mr.. Reader, and in
other ways made our stay very pleas
ant one. We left York at $50. escorted
for several miles by Miss Bayard, who
extracted promise from us to visit her
on the return trip also. Her company
and courtesy was much appreciated by
US. and we commend both her and Miss
Bouchard to wheelmen everywhere.
Reached Bradshaw at P NJ. and
were again delayed by Willis wheel.
The repair man was called into service
and We hope for no more trouble. We
were delayed so long that We had ''to
feel our way into Hampton putting up
at small though comfortable hotel
with register Of "a miles for the first
day.
We were called this morning at 4
o'clock but did not get off until 5:l5
reaching Aurora at $50 with mileage
of 90 miles. Found rough and hilly
roads few miles from Aurora and were
stopped here, miles east of Grand
Island, by rain, 103 miles.

THE CYCLE GIRL CRITICIZED.

Cycling gives our wives, daughters,
sisters and sweethearts a charm that
even they themselves wot not Of. A
woman, properly costumed, on the
wheel, is the picture of grace and lissom-
eness and is engaged in one Of the
greatest health giving exercises that has
ever been placed before her sex since
the creation of Mother Eve. She is, in
cycling, making greater strides away
from the thraldom OF tight lacing and
the deadly corset than all the lecturers
that have discoursed on the platform of
decade. She is making this progress
because she is compelled to. She can
not riue with ease with her ribs COM
pressed within the confines OF even a
moderately laced corset and the result
will be, among wheelwomen at least,
the utter Punishment of that instrument
for producing spider waists in the short
est possible period, and the evolving in
its stead OF women with all the lines of
beauty, perfect form and harmonious
contours Of the feminine body.
But there are those who object to
this costume. Those who even go so
far as to smirch the regulations of
those who see in them the pursuit of
health and strength and who in the in
nocence of their quest do not dream of
the sly innuendoes and disparaging re-
marks that are their portion or the
motives and intentions with which they
are credited.
This is not in any degree creditable
to those who indulge in the pastime.
Women who without definite cause re-
vile and besmirch fellow creature have
much to answer for. And those who in
the narrow environment of their own
self, constituted conventionality, attrib-
ute unsound motives and reprehensible
ambitions to those who are not abject
in their devotion to this conventional
code, will not, in my mind, discover the
SotSS oJoi W pC WHO ob thCi
hinges when they seek ad mission.
But what would you? 1t is all mat
ter of education and the higher educa-
ton is peculiarly acquired by good
women: and good women will remain
good upon the wheel Just as surely and
just as long as they would in the con-
fines of their home.
'Honi sui qui NAL pense" is the
thought that always comes to my inmost
heart when l hear the structures of these
self elected feminine Parkhursts who
sit in judgment on their sisters. IF
damnation be the sole portion of the
lady riders who dare to set their narrow
code at defiance what a world Of CON-
pany they will have on their little coast
down into the Internal regions"
II it be crime to seek health and
strength. to love exhilaration and eman-
cipation, to aspire to the perfect enjoy
ment OF all that God has bestowed upon
us, then is the bloomer wearing, cycle

Building Inspector Folsom will, begin
ming next week, inaugurate a sort of
war on parties who have begun buildings
without first having obtained a permit
therefor. It is becoming too common in
the opinion of the inspector, this practice,
and ne will stop it if he has to cause
the arrest of half the population. At the
present time there are a great many
buildings going up in various parts Of
the city for which no permits have been
asked for. It is a clear violation of the
law and the inspector proposes to test it
to the limit.

Poll Tax Matters.

Deputy Clark. of the street department,
says that poll tax is being collected this
year with greater success than ever be-
fore. While the cash collections are not
heavy, there is a great deal of the tax
being worked out by men who hunt up
those who have to pay. In this way
nearly $500 has thus far been paid in.
Clark tells a good story about men
who strive to get laborerS to work out
their taxes at a discount. There are
many who think that in giving a man
their tax to work they are entitled to
something out of it, and as a result
they offer say $3.50 for working out the
So. Some cases have been heard OF
where the offer was as low as SIS In
such cases it is not an uncommon matter
for the would-be workman to take the
notice and put It in his pocket. The
first thing the taxpayer knows he is be-
ing sued for delinquency, the laborer
having neglected to do the work. There
are several instances of this kind on the
records right now. Clark advises all
who have to pay the tax to give men the
face value for working it out.

While on this subject. few brief re-

which has taken place in some of the

A hot fire of criticism has been
brought to bear upon their every en-

effort, as the Duke of Null, in Moths,

Miss Madge Carr Cooke has pursued
the even tenor Of her way at the opera
house with probably less need for i'm

the company.
Mr.. Harry Corson Clarke has earn
ed for himself a reputation as char
acter actor which is almost unasSail-
able. In his peculiar sphere he would
be first in the field if Roland Reed
were out OF il.
Miss Leigh has grown considerab bly,
in favor since her first appearance,
succeeding once or twice in dividing
honors with Miss Bateman.
Wright Huntington, on the whole
has done little to deserve condemnation
but much to merit applause. 1t would
be difficult to find any one better
suited to the parts he has taken IN
the different plays. both as regards
appearance, demeanor and talent.

Treasurer Dukes report for the week
ending last night shows falling off in
the funds of the city to the amount of
$7,45S.9O. This is due to the heavy drafts
which have been made for various pur-
poses and the fact that the revenues
are not as heavy as they have been. 1t
is anticipated that an upward action will
set in again soon and that the funds will
increase up to July, when with the grav-
ity sewer account on for payment and the
interest due the cash balance will be
low indeed. There will be a royal well
come extended by the city to the tax
funds which will become due next fall be-
