WOMEN ON WHEELS.

Some entirely gratuitous attacks have
been made OF late by the woman's Rescue
League upon the bicycle and the women
who use it. The bicycle has been charged
with being injurious to health and danger
GUS to morals, and the wheelwomen are
accused Of offending against grace, morality
and decency. Bicyclists have not cared
to enter upon reply to, or refutation
Of, such silly charges, but have gone on
wheeling, and getting all the enjoyment
possible out of the exercise. together with
good health, rosy cheeks, and symmetry

had not done some really noble WORK in
other directions one might suppose that
this attack upon wheels and wheelwomen
was prompted by malice or envy. AS this,
however, is precluded, it must be as
cribed to positive ignorance Of the real
facts in the case.
As regards the effect of bicycling upon
women's health, nine physicians of every
ten-perhaps a larger proportion even
will testify that where one woman may
experience injurious results, fifty are
benefited by the exercise. Their muscular

San Francisco Examiner.
Tothe coming great meeting of the Saliva
onArmy in London San Francisco will send
novel exhibit. Two Chinese converts will
be there to show what salvation methods
can do for the old civilization.
These two soldiers from the Orient will be
the only ones from San Francisco. The trip
Is long and expensive one. ManY of the
officers would like to 20 but they have sac.
rificed their wishes that the CcleStia!s may

ing to be done in the land beyond the sea.
1t has not been definitely decided who will
represent the Chinese corps. Several names
have been suggested. but choice is difficult,
for all the Chinese who speak English well
have inches at home which it is very diff
ficult to fill.
Last evening Ensign May Jackson, who
has had such wonderful success with the
Chinese and Brigadier Keppel had a confer
ence on the matter. Asa result it was de-
termined to send Louis Jow a Chinese who
fe prominent in salvation work in this couu-
try, and Yee Ling, the editor OF the Chinese
War Cry in this city. Cadet Joe King who
is Miss Jackson's right md man, was sug-
gested, but lie speaks English and sever :.
Chinese dialects, plays the accordion, and
has so many accom- plsiInents that he could
not be spared.
Yee Ling will also be very much missed,
but an attempt will be made to get some-
one to edit the Chinese Waf Cry during his
absence Yee Ling has been getting ont
the paper ever since its inception. He does
an immense amount of work. Each week
he publishes 900 copies OF the paper, which
render four editions necessary, each with
1000 characters. TO print the paper these
1000 characters have to be engraved on
O huge stone and put through the litho-
graphic process. Besides writing articles
Yee Ling translates much matter from
other army publications, prepares each
character for the press. which takes al
his time for several days, and does the
duties of a soldier besides.
The Chinese work on this coast Is as
suming prominent placc in the great work
beingdonc by the army. There are over 200
converts, and last Wednesday fourteen
