81 picked up new thing for riders
of the wheel in New York few days
ago." suggested a popular wheelman,
"and would like to give it publicity
through The Star. Those who have had
trouble in finding small purctures will
appreciate it. You know the customary
way to locate puncture is to immerse
the wheel in q tab of water. Wherever
the air bubbles, there will be found the
puncture. In some cases, however, the
air pressure is not sufficient to make the
air bubbles. In cases of this kind lather
some soap and smear ii over the tire. A
soap bubblJ will form then over every
puncture, it matters not how small ii
is. Once located, nearly every rider
knows what to do, or thinks he does,
which is about the same thing, for the
great majority send them to the shops

The Atlantic Squadron Bicycle club

A cyclist in Bedfordshire, England,

the New York Press, when law will
be passed compelling wheelmen to use
the much despised brake.

The scorcber serves purpose after
all, says The Wheel. He shows the
average rider how cycling can be made
odious, and as a frightful example is a
glittering success, especially when a
policeman takes him in hand.
The latest invention to facilitate field

This consists of typewriter mounted

Great Men Prove Common CIny

Distinguished statesmen will seem to
sink to the common level when they
get into the barber's chair. Tie old
barber at the Mansion House, Edward
Cook, has shaved a good many Of
tnem during the sixty years he has
made a living with his razor, and he
says lie couldn't tell any of them
from an primary man. He was talking
to an Express reporter on this subject
yesterday. "Tve shaved Thaddeus
Stevens, Daniel Webster, Cassius NJ.
Clay and Tom Marshall" he said,
''and 1 never had a suspicion that they
were above the ordinary until l
learned it after they left the shop. l
shaved Stevens down in Maryland, be-
fore | came to Buffalo. He was a qui-
ct man. He had hardly a word to
say to me. He seemed to be thinking
hard about something all the time.
Webster and Tom Marshall always
came into my shop from the barroom.
They were both men who liked their
brandy, and they drank q lot of 1t.
Sometimes they drank. so much that
their breath nearly made me drunk
while | was shaving them. They were
awfully jolly sort Of men. Tom Mar
shall was always Joking. He used to
make ME laugh every time he sat In
my chair. He was n of the incest
men l ever shaved. Webster 1 didn't
get to know so well. He was quiet,
like Stevens. He had a very strong
beard and he wanted to be shaved
close. He wanted me to scrape right
down under his flesh. It's a wonder it
didn't hurt him. But l reckon he was
a mar who could stand most anything.
The first time l shaved him he came
in from the barroom, where he had
been drinking with a lot of politicians.
He sat down in the chair and said
shave He didn't say another word.
When he got up he gave me double
price. He was one of those liberal
sort of fellows. 1 didn't know his
name was Webster until after he went
out, and then some men asked me if L
knew who l had been shaving. l told
them 1 didn't, and they told me who
he was. I've learned that it's impos-
sible to tell a great man in the bar
ber's chair. They are like everybody
else. And I'm a man who ought to
know.'-Buffalo Express.

Two years ago the notorious Sophie
Lyons, gorgeously dressed, and wear

up to the Metropolitan opera house in
a faultless equippage. She was smoth-

about one-half of the opera. when one
of the detectives roaming through the
house discovered her. He lost no time
in making his way to her chair and
informing her that she would have to
leave.
Sophie played the indignant fashion

tective was confident of his position,
