RE thought of Vicksburg and Chicka-
manga. Everyone within five miles
was sure that the Perdu boys were
standing off band of robbers. MIR.
Perdu had only the day previously sold
a tract OF land for s., 900. His neighbors
thought OF that circumstance at once,
and jumped to the conclusion that an
attempt was being made to murder and
rob the farmer
In five minutes so people, armed with
Winchesters. revolvers, and shotguns.
were galloping to the Perdu home.
When they saw the alligators they
looked into each others eyes and said:
What in thunder does it all mean"
1t took two or three hours to kill the
alligators. There were more than a
hundred. Il counted 109-little and
big said one of the boys.
During periods of great drought peo-
pie have frequently met two or three
aliigators going across the country
from one stream to anther but never
before did Texan wake up and find
hundred or more alligators in his
front yard.

secured in some way TO what looks
very much like an uncompleted lire
of fence. This is the Ho,chkiss BIZ
cycle railway"
Several years ago a stranger located
in Mt. Holly He told of his many
inventions, The greatest. he said. was
the bicycle railway. 1t was the big
thing of the future.
There would be no right OF way to
buy, either In rural communities or
cities. Being senatorial it would be
out OF the way of all other traffic. The
rails could be laid on brackets extend
ing over the street, on awning posts
and from telegraph poles and trees in
the country and. having nothing in it's
way, great speed could be made over it
for long distances.
The machines were very much like
an ordinary bicycle turned upside
down. split up the middle and placed
upon the track like clothes pins. In
| front and back of the rider were
| grooved wheels about nine inches in
| fi1yNpfCr hot n n
wedge SHAPED like knife blade, and
: almost as sharp.
| This was fastened to SX3-inch
plank, securely fastened to posts pt
frequent intervals.
| There being but little friction or
weight propulsion was easy, requiring
but slight expenditure of energy. and
this latter and very important olemen,
was generated from ratchet gear and
clutch levers instead of pedals.
Receptacles for packages and ever
small "trailers" could be added. Tan.
dem machines with plush cushions
would enable men to take their wivc.
and sweethearts riding. Letters paten
were to be issued in all countries ant

The scheme made a hit. A com

For a quarter Of mile from Mt. Holl,
the road is double track. During tn
remainder of the distance the Ran

But when the farmers want to &c

A somewhat unusual inducement to
buyers of bicycles is being offered by
Brooklyn dealer who refuses to cut
prices. To each purchaser of a wheel
he gives a building lot in a small town
about half way down the Jersey coast
The lot Is not very large, and, of
course, it can't be very valuable just
now but the bicycle dealer talks glib
ly about what it may be worth If a big
hotel is erected there, and If this town
should become a popular resort. and If
several other things should happen. He
has found that people who have no
more use for a building lot in Jersey
