PARKER'S UNICYCLE.


J. w. Parker, a Chicago bicycle manu-,
facturer, expects shortly to perfect II
unicycle he is working on. The machine
is complete and has been tested.
For attaining high rate of speed
nothing short of a cannon-ball express
train is to be compared with it. Mr..
Parker had the wheel out for trial
spin on Grand boulevard several days
ago.
The inventor afirms that it travelled
at the rate of about 40 miles an hour.
Mr.. Parker says a greater speed could
have been attained, but he was afraid Of
an accident The plan of the Parker
nnicycle may be understood by the ac
companying illustration.
Handle bars, pedals, and seat are ar
ranged like those OF bicycle. The

Rhode island Man.
A peculiar feature in bicycle in
vented in Providence is in the peGal
movement. Although it suggests some
what the star wheel used before the
safety was perfected, the principle is
radically different, as there is no ''star"
spring and the side levers, through
which power is transmitted to the driv-
ing sprocliet, are without fixed full
crum.
As described by the Providence jour
nal, the frame is of the giraffe type, he
wheels and handle-bars are standard,
hut there are four sprocket wheels and
two chains, and the chains run VERTICAL
ly instead of horizontally, two of The
sprocllet wheels being located under he
saddle, one on each side of the frame,
and thus both chains are out Of the " ay

The statement that the cardinal arch
bishop of Paris had forbidden the use
of the bicycle by his clergy is contra
dicted. The explanatory circular says
that he only advised priests not TO use
the machine merely for pnstirne inside
Haris, where other means Of locomotion
exist, but he warmly favors their utili-
zation by the country clergy, especially
on sick calls.

A lower end Republican organette is
furnishing Democrats much amusement
these evenings with its savage attacks
upon John NJ. Garman. If the said
organette would only divide some of It's
opposition among the other Democratic

tremendous vote for the whole Demo

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Washington. October IL, 1896.
The returns made in nearly all the
congressional districts are sufficiently
complete to Indicate how the next house
will stand. and an estimate, which is re-
gardcd by the Democratic congressional
committee as very conservative, shows
that 100 Silver representatives will be
elected, including Democrats, Populists
and Silver Republicans. That will give
the Silver men control of the house by 4
comfortable working majority and en-
sures the early enactment of law pro-
yidng for the free coinage Of silver. if
the estimate be correct and Mr.. Bryan
be elected, and Democrats have no
doubt Of either, as Mr.. Bryan has said
that if elected he would call an i'm
mediate extra session of congress for the
express purpose Of providing for the free
coinage OF silver, and the senate is solid
for silver and will remain so.
