Women and Bicycles.

DIR. Grace Peckham Murray says:
Certainly bicycling cannot injure any
healthy young woman SO long as she
does not over-exert herself. Indeed
any sport which will keep young
women out of doors, and give them
healthful exercise so that circulation
is stimulated, is something which
should be favored by everyone. AS
soon as young women has learned to
balance herself and to work the pedals
without any more thought than she
would give to move her feet in walking
she can then cover long distances
without the slightest injury resulting
from exertion. The bicycling is GER
tasnly a great boon to young women
who cannot afford horses and car
riages,for here is steedwhich they can
purchase at small price, and keep
at small cost. 1t has been a source of
new vigor to the typewriter and stem
ographer, and it has given new
strength to the schoolgirl, and fresh
courage to the schoolteacher. If
there is any injury at all to

NICARAGUAN AFFAIR.

Bulldozer England is once more in
her glory, having landed force oil
armed men and taken possession oil
Corinto for the purpose of collecting
the paltry sum of $4,000. She would
have shown more honor and courtesy
by giving Nicaragua more time to pay
the debt. If a large and powerful
nation like England can gain any
honors by bulldozing and trampling
on small, insignificant and inoffen-
sive nation like little Mic, we fall to
see where it comes in. But that is
one of England's cowardly traits, al
ways looking for a chance to show
her bravery by subduing small
government. On the other hand, take
a nation that would be likely to give
her a taste of her own medicine and
she would be the first one tosqueal for
arbitration. United States would have
done an honorable thing if she had
told England to stay at home, and
Sam would not have to tell her the
second time, either. England would
be only too willing then to take some
honorable means of collecting her So
called indemnity, which could have
been done very easily, as Nicaragua
was willing to pay if granted more
time. England's actions in this mat
ter, to say the least, are shame and
disgrace to any civilized and enlight-
ened nation, and we are only sorry
that Mic is not strong enough to teach
her good lesson or two, like the
United States has.

Every week we read Dun's and
Bradstreet's reports on the business
outlook of the country, which has
about the same tone week after week
and that is that times are getting
better; business outlook continues to
improve. We are hardly in position
to deny the assertion, for such may
be the facts in the East. But we can
say very truthfully that there has
been no very rapid strides made in
that direction in the West, at least
none have been noticeable, although
there is slow movement toward bet
ter times, and if the present rate is
kept up the rising generation may
hope for good times to console them
in their waning years of life.

FOREIGN IMPUDENCE.

If reports are true, United States
will have chance to Investigate and
demand reparation of the Turkish
government for the murder of LEM,
the American bicyclist, who was max
ing tour of the world ON his wheel
and happened to get mixed up with
the Armenians at the time of the
Armenia massacre by the Kurds.
United States is in duty bound to see
that her citizens are respected by all
foreign nations, and if they are not,
to Immediately take steps to know the
reason why. Then when she gets her
hands in, let her investigate the 20
years Imprisonment of John r. Wal
Ter, ex-U United States consul to Tama-
tave, Madagascar. by the French gov
eminent. Waller was charged with
giving information to the Hoyas, and
tried and sentenced in less than four
hours, which looks a little like rail
reading it through, so to speak, with
out giving him chance to retaliate.
And last, but not least, the impris-
onment of John Genzburg, a citizen
of the United States and a resident
of Glasgow, Mont, who went back to
Russia to visit relatives and friends,
and as soon as he crossed the border
into Russia he was arrested and
thrown into prison without any ap-
parent reason. He is held in high
esteem by the citizens of Glasgow,
who are very indignant at the out
rage. Oh, for man like Blaine in
the chair and few patriots in the
cabinet, such foreign impudence
would not be tolerated for moment.

In glancing over the bills that were
passed by the recent Minnesota leg
islature, we find that the work will
compare very favorably with that of
any previous Legislative session ever
held in the state. While it is true
that there were quite a number of
good bills that failed to pass, there
were a greater number of good ones
that did pass. Among the most i'm
portant of the latter may be men
toned the bills for forest protection,
to prevent such fires as were expert
enced at Hinckley last year; to regu-
late child labor; to exterminate the
Russian thistle; to promote good
roads; to regulate the sale of intoxi-
cants; to encourage higher education
to prohibit the sale Of cigarettes and
tobacco to school children; to protect
laborers from dishonest employment
bureaus; to regulate primary elections
and prevent corrupt practice, and sew
eral others. Now, the duty of all
good citizens is to see that the laws

Casts of Figm 'es Made Four Thousand
Years Ago.
There have been placed on exhibition
in the Baby loni.,n room Of the British
museum some very fine specimens Of
Babylonian bronze castings. These in
teresting specimens of early metal work
come from a place known to the an
clients as Sir4pur-ra, or Lagash, the
modern name Of which is Tell-lo, a
large mound or site in southern Chal-
dea. One Of the bronzes shows the king
Of Babylonia, who appears clean shay
en-, in the dress of the high priest. The
garment reaches down to the feet and
is crossed over the left shoulder, leav-
ing the right arm, which is raised, bare.
The statuette is a full length one, stand
ing on it's own double plinth, and is
some 10 inches high. This bronze comes
from Abu Habbab and dates about B.
G. 1900. A second statuette represents
king in the attitude Of alteration or
contemplation, having his hands raised
and clasped together in similar man.
ner as the god NeS0 is represented. The
king wears long, flowing beard, but
no costume can be traced. This figure is
not full length, being cut off about the
calves, and represents probably the
Chaldean king, Gudea, B. G. $500.
The third figure, which stands seven
inches high, represents Camil-Sin, king
of Babylonia, in the character of basket
bearer, both arms being uplifted and
supporting a basket borne on the head.
The date of the figure is about B., G.
5000. 1t is supposed that these statuettes
may have been dedications to Ningirsu,
the fire god, whose worship was par
ticular cult at Tell-lo.
The art of making bronze casts was
known to the Bahylonians from very
early times, and many examples are to
be seen in the British museum as we'll

the health in bicycling, it is that
single danger which is common to
all forms of exercise, namely, untrain-
ed over-exertion. This seems to be
the trouble attendant upon the play
ing Of tennis by young women. For
men, any form of exercise, as rule,
does not involve any extra exertion;
for men are usually accustomed
to constant muscular endeavor, and
are not so likely to oyerstrain in the
same proportion as women. Two
thirds of our young women, in the
matter of muscular endeavor, fall
far short ofwhat muscular develop
ment should be. The cause of this is
undoubtedly the non-adaptability of
woman's dress to any great muscular
exertion. In the matter of hygiene of
bicycle riding there is one item in
which women have the advantage of
men; for women, as rule, take proper
position when riding, that is, an up
right and natural one, while the men
lean over in most unnatural position
which results in almost permanently
round shoulders Demorest Maya
