emitting a ditch through this field for the

men were blasting on this h.ii, and A
large blast, consisting of six or eight
sticks 81 dynamite, was exploded, when,
instead Of the rocks being blown upward,
they fen into the interior, which caused
most OF the dar6ies employed TO hustle
away with alacrity.
A good many people visited the spot

others left firmly convinced Of the exist

This could be done more cheapiy by
bicycles than horses.
Secretary Barron then read the names
OF those present as well as re letters e OF
constitution and its discussion was next
in order, but was postponed until laier
in the day. President Mctrystal then
called for informal talks on the matter
and introduced Major Gicdings, OF the
Connecticut National Guard.
The question OF the proper weight or a
military bicycle was considered. Major
Giddings said the wheel now IN use by the
corps weighed twenty-nine POUNDS. The
wheels are 10 be heavier next year. In
regard 10 the proper arms tor blcycilsts,
Major Giddings said that he considered the
rifle only too heavy IN the case OF signal
corps, scouts, b. messengers.
He believed the rifle could be carried
on the right side OF the wheel with sue
cess and did not think they should be
carried on the men. He said he did not
favor having any weight on the rider at
all except his revolver.
Sergeant Siaubach said Aat the use or
the wheel Was mainly for transportation
and would figure in an engagement tor
that reason he said. the wheslmen should
be provided with tn same arms as foot
soldiers. The convention then decided %
