Most wheelrnen reach Riverside DriVe through
One-hundred -and-eighth-st. If they turn toward
Claremont they a sign telling them to keep
to the right. They would naturally do this any
way because a smooth hard path. rolled down
by hundreds of wheels. forms the eastern edge Of
the roadway. This is excellent going even when
the rest Of the road is rough or muddy. But II
wheelmen are to keep to the right carriages go
ing In the same direction should be made To keep
to the left. 1t will be remembered that Just here
there are two roadways-one for vehicles gong
north the other for those going south. blcyclsts
bound for Claremont often have to turn out into
the rough or muddy part or the way because car
riages go slowly along the extreme right, occa-
sionally stopping so that view may be had OK
the Hudson 1t would be no hardship for drivers
to be told to let the wheelman have his path to
himself.
Cyclists making the trip around the Claremont
hill ordinarily pass up on the land side and down
along the river This is the natural course In
the academies the pupils keep the centre Of the
floor to their left in circ!ing round and round.
and, Of course. on all tracks. for man and beast.
the same direction is pursued. Yet there are
some riders who persist In circling Claremont IN
the opposite direction, thus riskng collision with
those coming around the other way. AS both
roads are down hill. there is especial danger Of
sma sh-ups. 1t is well. therefore. to go with the
crowd.
What becomes OF the old bicycles? Is often
asked. Many Of them are to be seen on the East
Side. where there is already considerable asphalt
paving. The wheels Of three or four years back
sold at such low figures as to be within the
reach OF youths and men who are not absolutely
poverty stricken. Riding In this district Is not
an unm!xed delight, because the streets 50
crowded. especially with children. Mishaps are
therefore common even when great caution Is
exercised. A number Of small bicycle shops have
sprung up on the East Side. where repairs are
made and where old wheels may be bought.
Some antique bicycles may be had for $40

4" BIRD OF DEATH"
TIE ONLY FEATliERED CREATURE
KNOWN TO BE vENoMOus.

Among an the thousands oi fcath-
cred creatures classified by the trained
ornithologist. but one, the rpir n'doob,
or ''bird OF death" is known to be
venOmous. The st. Louis Republic
says this queer and deadly species of
the winged and fcatlercd tribe is a
native Of the Island Of Papau. or
New Guinea. The bird is described
as being about the size Of a common
tame pigeon, of gray plumagc, and Il
tail Of extraordinary length, ending
in a tip Of brilliant scarlet red. Ii is
a marsh bird, and is found TO lnhabit
only the immense stagnant pools ad-
joining the lakes Of the interior Of
the island. The ipir has Il hooked
beak. as sharp as Il cocks spur and
hollow. The venom with which he
i~nnoculatcs is distilled in set of or
gans which nature has provided for
that purpose, and which lie in The
upper mandiblc just below the open
ings OF the nostr0ls. Under the
poison-sccrcting laboratory in the
roof Of the mouth is Il small ilcshy
knob. When the bird sets its bcak
. in the flesh Of a victim this knob re
cciycs a pressure which liberates the
venom and occulatcs the wound.
No man. native or otherwise. was
evcr known to recover from a bite in.
flicted by a rpir n'doob. The suffering
in such cases is said to be much more
agOnizing than in the cases Of rattle.
snake and ella monsters.

He seemed to perceive me no more, but
nevertheless he fought, and desperately,
thrustinR at the empty air. 1t was terri
BILE to see him thus doing battle with his
invisible foes and to hear his screams and
curses as inch by inch they drove him back
to the edge Of the crater. Here he stood
awhile, like one who makes last stand
against overpowering strength, thrusting
and striking furiously. Twice he nearly
fell, as though beneath mortal wound,
but recovering himself fought on with
nothingness. Then, with a sharp Cry, sud-
denly he threw his arms wide, as a man
does who is pierced through the heart.
His sword dropped from his hand, and he
fell backward into the pit.
