ARMY CYCLE TEST.
United States Troops Wheel Thousand
Mountain Miles.

The bicycle for military use is now an
assured success. 1t has just been given
a test by United States troops IN the
far West that shows beyond peradven-
ture that. however problematical may
be its advantages in actual battle IL IL
already of vast practical utility ID var
ious other purposes of military neces-
sity.
This test was made by a detachment
of eight men from the Twenty-n1th III
fantry at Fort Missoula, and was undef
the command of Lieutenant Moss. Inc
men chosen were ordinary riders, ana
the bicycles were the regular output
of one of the big standard concerns Oh
the East. The test was to be thous-
and miles over common mountain
roads, with the riders equipped for such
exigencies as might befall them IN d
scouting or messenger run through a
hostile country.
Besides 100 pounds of rations, the
party carried a complete roungh camp
ING outfit-blanketS rifles, thirty ROUNDS
of ammunition to each man, extra ures
and all the paraphernalia of forced
march. The average weight OF the
wheels packed was seventy-seven anu
a half pounds. The weight OF wheel
and rider ranged from 212 to 2o2
pounds each.
From Fort Missoula the party
wheeled to Fort Harrison and Helena
on bad mountainous roads and against
strong head winds. Nevertheless the
whole distance of 132 miles, including
the crossing of the main range, was
done in twenty-five hours of actual
work. or at an average rate OF SIX
miles an hour.
From Helena they wheeled to the
National Park, every portion of which
they visited. Then they ran down the
upper Yellowstone Valley, and turning
I'D Trail Creek Pass, crossed the Bridg-
er range into the Gallatin Valley, and
wheeled to Bozeman through mud and
storm.
From Bozeman n run of seventy-two
miles to Townsend was made in one
day. There the party was ordered
home for special duty.
The result of the march was sur
prise even to the strongest supporters
of the bicycle. Lieutenant Moss re-
ported that both soldiers and wheels
had stood the journey remarkably well
The test was made as thoroughly as
possible and under all conditions; they
had ridden in all kinds of weather
through mud sand and dust crossing
mountain ranges and fording streams.

THE EFFECTS OF DANGER.
With Some Men II Brightens the Intellect
While Others Are Stupefied.

The power of rapid action differs
enormously in different Individuals
more especially in sudden danger With
some men imminent peril seems to
brighten the intellect, quicken the
power of decision, and increase the
obedience of hand or limb to eye and
ear. In others, the sharp shock OF
sudden danger rciaXes the will power,
stupeties rather than stimulates, and
changes a capable and energetic man
into monument of incnpacitJ and
surprise.
In the Red Sea, one burning hot
. morning, | was reading quietly on tile
taffrail of an outbound j. and o. boat.
One of the smart young cavalry Off
GERS on the way out 20 join his regiment
was playing with little girl OF SIX.
She was runni.S away from him,
shouting with merriment, and, heed
less of consequences so long as she es
caped from her purSuer. The sloping
Julwark surrounding the taffrail is not
two feet high. but railing of iron
stanchionS, with two horizontal chains
forms pTOltCtlOl dSullSl oiulhdly
danger. Little Sunbeam, as she was
called. rushed past me, laughing loudly,
leaped through the lower chain of the
stanchon railing, and was inthe boiling
wake of the steamer before anyone
could apprehend danger. | rose sud
denly as | saw the child gain the bull
wark, and two curious things hap
pcned.
A form rushed past me and before
the child had struck the water the
young cavalry sub had flung himself
over the railing and was in the air.
The two bodies struck the water within
second of each other and when both
rose they We're not three yards apart
The nearest life buoy that hung on the
bulwark was thrown overheard so
quickly by the quartermaster that it
foated not thirty yards from where
the two bodies We're floating, and the
order to stop the ship was given with
in four seconds of the occurrence, the
whole scene being observed by the Off
Ger on watch; and the rapidity with
which he stopped the ship and gave or
ders for the boat to be lowered was
happily rewarded by rescue.-Cas-

American Hardwoods in Europe.

The demand for American hard
woods in Europe is growing, and oak
leads the foreign shipments, although
tulip, poplar, ash, gum and black wal
nut, whenever a good quality can be
secured, are in some demand. Euro
pean consumers like the quality of
American oak, and since it is known
to be plentiful here it will probably be
in increasing demand. Cottonwood
has been shipped to Germany in con-
siderable quantities, where cheap wood
is required for furniture and other
uses. Much of this lumber is forward
ed from New Orleans, and since a
great part of the oak, ash, poplar, cot
tonwood and other timbers demanded
by the foreign market is in the South
ern States, is not improbable that lum-
Der for foreign markets will be largely
shipped in future from Gulf ports. In
speaking of this matter The North
western Lumberman says that the Eu-
ropean market requires lumber cut of
exact thickness and of accurate length,
trimmed so as to have the butts square
and true. Space for piling in the yards
of the Old World is an object, so that
random. uneven lengths are objection
able, and, since the foreign buyer in
sists that he shall have just what he
bargains for, quality should be strictly
attended to.-Garden and Forest

NOW that the young Gar and his
Czarina have made beginning OF
their travels, they should make up their
minds not to stop within the limits OF
efrete Europe. They should push on
westward in the track Of Bishop Berke-
ley's Justly celebrated star of empire
and pay visit to the United States.
What tremendous benefits the youthful
autocrat, by the slightest within OF
whose boyish and not particularly pow
erful brain the happiness and the lives
of millions of human beings may be
affected, would receive If he should
pass a few months or even weeks in
this republic of enlightened freemen!
He would doubtless feel as If he were
in another world, so opposed are the
ideas which prevail here to those to
which lie is accustomed; but he could
not fail to absorb something OF the
spirit of equality, though never so
slightly. by the operation of the theory
of the rights of man. In that case
the history of his reign would be vastly
different from what 1t will be II he
spends all his life in the close atmos-
pbere Of absolutism he is breathing
now. -...-.-----.---

Oldest Human Teeth.

A couple of teeth found near Wei
mar, are claimed by DR.. A. Nehring to
be the oldest human teeth yet found in
Europe. One of them, permanent
first molar. is remarkably like that Of
Il Chmpanzee. but not much like that
of the gorilla or orang. He also calls
attention to the fact that the first pre-
molar and last molar are reduced in
size in modern man as compared with
early man. This was known before;
but he adds that he finds the same
state of things in domesticated as COM
pared with wild dogs. In the former,
as in civilized man. the jaw is relative
ly feebly developed, and there is ten
dehcy to reduction of the last molar.

There is a new kind of bug, and it Is
a corker. 1t is spreading over the
country from the Southwest, and hui
man beings are its chosen prey. AL
ready 1t has invaded the Mississippi
Valley in great numbers, and many
nersons have nearly died from Its bites.
Not a whit more cheerful does this
news become when it is explained that
the insect in question is a giant spe-
cies of bed-bug. 1t comes from Next
co and Texas, and it measures full
inch in length.
