novelty in the way of the lighteSt bicycle
ever built in the world, and have it on eX-
hibition in their show window. 1t is
called the Tribune, and is built by the
Black Manufacturing company, at Erie,
Pa. The actual weight of the wheel Is
eight pounds, founteen ounces. This is
the wheel that created such a furore at
the New York cycle show in February
last 1t is attracting considerable atten-
ton from the wheel fraternity in the
city. 1t is just simply a marvel OF me-
chantcal construction and has been ridden
for exhibition by an ordinary weight man.

express for the purpose of allowing them
TO place it on exhibition for q few days,
as they are agents for the Tribune wheel
in this city. The ordinary wheel is made
in weights ranging from 20 to 211a pounds.
