ACCORDING to La Nature, a Frencl

ACCORDING to La Nature, a French magazine, M. Gauthier, of St. Malo, has built a monocycle of 611 feet diam eter, which he expects will revolution ize wheeling. The center of gravity of the new cycle, when mounted, is below the hub, thereby obviating the diff culty of riding to a great extent. The wheel is formed of steel tubing, eight bent out spoSes of lighter tubing join ing in a very strong hub, where all the strain is concentrated. An ingenious framework hinged in the hub provides seat, handles and pedals, and the steer ing is done by swaying of the body.
