4 MILE 4 MINUTE.

Tn propelling the ordinary safety bi. cycle the riders feet travel in circle over forty inches in circumference and transmit power only about one-third Of the circle, merely riding the pedals the remainder. The latest invention called the spider, is propelled by lev CTS nfteen inches long, having an up and down stroke of fourten inches: hence the riders feet travel only tWelty-elght inches and transmit DOW CT about tWo-thirds of the stroke. The construction of the pedals enables the rider to pull as we'll as push, increas- Ing the power nearly 100 per cent. This is impossible with any other gear ing.
 The driving levers are more than twice as long as the ordinary bicycle cranks, and the rider can propel a wheel geared to 100 inches with as lit tle, or less, muscular eXertion than an ofolnary wheel geared to sixty-eight. Ine inventor claims a mile in sixty seconds, or even less is possible.
 Narrow tread is demanded by up-to date wheelmen, and on this wheel the tread IS only three inches. The feet are directly over the levers and not at the side, as the ordinary cranks The triangular frame is simpler, stronger. and lighter than the present style of frame. The saddle is fixed in position. the adjustment to suit the rider being made by raising and lowering the large gear wheels at their connection With the frame. The stroke is also adjustable to any length desirable The handle bars slide up and down in the fork sides, which are round for about five inches, and are fastened in any desired position by hexagon taper nuts. A pneumatic spring is provided In the handle bars to lessen the the vii bration, which benumbs the arms and wrists of riders who bear heavily on the grips.

A NEW TROLLEY ROAD.
Company Organized to Construct
an Electric Road,
FROM NORTH TOPEKA TO ROSSYILLE.

To Pass site of Upper Dam Where a
Pleasure Resort Will be Made-A. y.
Arnold, T. M. James, l.. stair and f.
&. DOwney Directors.
A new electric railroad is to be built
in Topeka this summer-at least a COM
pany has just been organized for that
purpose The charter will be filed this
evening or on Monday. The capital
stock of the company is to be $1,000, 900,
divided into 10000 shares of 800 each.
The promoters of the plan and the di-
rectors are: Postmaster A. ]. Arnold, T.
NJ. James, l. Stair and F. C. Downey.
There will be several names added to
this list before the charter is filed.
The company is organized to build and
equip an electric railroad from North
Topeka to Silver Lake and RossVille, and
an effort will be made to secure the old
road bed of the defunct North Topeka,
Silver Lake 6 Rossville railroad, whose
construction was started during Topeka's
boom, and which collapsed with it.
1t is not expected that the road will be
extended to Silver Lake or Rossville at
once, but it will be built to the site of the
upper dam, three miles west of the city.
The company expects to make the site of
the dam pleasure resort, and they say
that they will put two or three electric
launches on the river above the dam for
the use of pleasure parties. They also
expect to build natatorium, and make
the place one to which the people of To-
peka will go to spend their holidays.
The company has held several meet
ings during the past two weeks, but the
fling of the charter has been delayed by
the uncertainty surrounding the result
of the endeavor of the dam company to
make a satisfactory contract and ordin-
ance with the city. All that has now
been adjusted and the dam company say
that they have received enough assurance
from outside power users to assure the
success of the dam enterprise The
amendments to be made to the ordinance
and contract will cause but little delay.
1t will be good news to the working
people of Topeka if the building of the
dam will assure the construction of the
railway line contemplated by the COM
pany.
Both Mr.. James and Captain Arnold
are known as men of means, and if they
take hold of this matter in earnest the
matter will probably be pushed to con-
clusion.

dismounted and went into the saloon.
The proprietor took him to large

rear and told the minister he could come
bring his Bible and he would see that all
the boys were there
sWhen the preacher rode into town the
next Sunday morning, he didn't see any

ed him, opened his Bible on that barrel
and pneached from behind it. He found
that most of his hearers were from New
England, and when they found that he
was, too, he had won the battle.

DIR. McvICAR's IMAGINATION.

Dr. COrdIey Tells How He Magnif1ed Two
Little willows Into Forest Monarchs.'
In his personal recollections yesterday
at the Congregational meeting, DR.. Cord
ley said: II remember that once l drove
with DR.. McVicar into the country, it
was then, to look at the location for
Washburn college. 1t was simply prai-
RE then. Is it not grand said the doc
tor, see those beautiful trees I looked
about four miles to the west, and saw two
little willows.
1.-THE thought struck me then that any
man who could make a forest scene out
of two willow trees could build Wash
burn college on the prairies. When
| Washburn college was first proposed
there was one Congregational church in
Kansas and that had eight members"
The true test of a baking powder is
we'll known to every housekeeper 1t is
to try it in making bread, cake, etc, and
we are of the opinion that it will be
impossible to remove from the minds of
our housewives the conviction long ago
formed from the application of this prac-
teal test, that the Royal does make the
best, the most, and the most wholesome.

last night of heart disease He was on
duty all day yesterday, apparently in the
best of health and spirits.
When he went to his home at SIC
Lane street last night he complained
of pain in his left side,
but not serious thought was given to
the matter, nor did he mention it again.
Shortly before midnight Mrs. Brussman

and slight groan from her husband
She found him dying. DR.. Boam, who
lives near, was summoned hastily, but
he expired before the doctor arrived.
The doctor pronounced his death due to
neuralgia of the heart
Mr. Brussman was about 90 years of
age, and had lived in Topeka more than
twenty years. He entered the army
when he was 10 years old and had been
promoted to the place Of captain when
the war closed. Before coming to To-
peka Mr.. Brussman was the city mar
shall of Springfield, Ohio.

During the interval he was city side
walk inspector. A more conscientious
man never served on the force, and
his efficiency, Notwithstanding his
years, WAS never questioned. During
his long police service he has been the
