The childrens credit was excellent in

THEY WENT TO DERBY.
Some Members of the Bicycle Club Take a
Spin in the Country.

Since the organization of the new hi
cycle club the wheelmen are beginning
to talk about training and ii is expect
ed that several flyers Will be developed
during the summer.
Fehlison, Bartleson. Maxwell and
Millison all good riders have left the
city and while the champions remain
here the boys say they want some
body to take the places of those who
have left.
1t is the intention Of the club to take
rides into the county repeatedly this
summer as they claim nearly all fast
riders are developed on the road in
stead of on the track.
Several members of the club ran down
to Derby last evening.
There were in the company Hal Nc

The club had 2 committee in consul
tation with the Second Regiment band
last night for the purpose of securing
the use Of the bicycle track in Girls
void park during the summer. The
band has leased the park for the season
and all rights must be obtained of them.
Robert Mccain who was a member Of
the Wheelmens committee said that they
were successful in their mission and
the arrangement had been made with
the Second Regiment band which would
give the club the use OF the track IN
Griswold park which is considered the
best half mile bicycle track in the state.

The Old Woman. Lotion.

Mr.. Barring Gould, in letter to Tho
Sunday Magazine, an English publication,
says he was recently advised by one of the
last remaining "old village wise women"
TO apply to his sprained wrist lotion COM
posed of six oils, which she described as
coil Of turpentine, OF suillowes, of earth
worms, of nerve, OF opidillidock, and of
Spanish fleas." The amount of each was
to be two ounces. "Fleas," he knew,
meant ''fies," but for ''suillowes'' he
could think of squills as the probable
modern equivalent. This Interpretation,
it seems, was wrong. Somebody better
versed in village lore wrote TO "a London
paper that ''oil of swallows" is what the
antique dame intended 10 prescribe, and
that 10 is, or was, very common 'coun-
try remedy" though it contains no swal-
lows. 1t is, In fact, oil Of elder. Swal-
lows, however, and earthworns also, had
at ono time place in official dispense
tories. Both are TO be found in Culpeper' 5
edition of the London Pharmacopocia,
where also are many other equally curious
materia medica, some of which still nnger

business and all
Taking care not to allow the men to get
within speaking distance the detectives
changed places and each said to his man:
Tell me who you are, what you do
where you live. 1 think we want you
Neither thief knew how his pal had
described him, and both told an entirely
new story, gave "a new name, new address
new elnploylnenf-in fact, each gave his
pal" the lie from the start.
Again the detectives changed places and
proceeded TO condemn each man out of his
own mouth and that of his pal" Both
descriptions given were false, of course.
and the mon had thus confessed that they
had something to conceal
Having thus ''got them right, " the cen
trail office men asked for direct tip
about the burglary they were working on,
threatening both thieves with arrest if
they didn't tell what they had heard in the
thieves colony, where pretty nearly every
one knows who did the last LOB"
The men who had told two lies apiece n
minute before told the name Of band and
the name of member of that band with
great promptness and that night burglar
