Recently we have had q good many

most any crew I'm the Northwest. but
some of them have been living pretty

may rock some. E. A. Jaggard and
Jack Parker, who were once very trim
oarsmen, have since that time accumu-
lated many deposits of adipose tissue

it will include Horace Libby, Gus

The Minneapolis & St. Louis Rail-

four handsome medals. the design of
which will be an INTERVENING of Eur

NEW INSURANCE SCHEME.

Great schemei" he exclaimed enthusiast
ucaily. There's a mint of money in it. If
we can only get it started with the proper
backing. And it's something entirely new,
too
What are you talking about?' asked the
man who always likes to throw cold water
on everything.
"A bicycle insurance scheme" replied the
enthusiast
Chestnut exclaimed the other mot
only chustnut, but the worst kind of one
tOh, guess you don't grasp the idea" re-
turned the enthusiast. MY plan isn't to in
sure bicycles or bicycle riders, but to in
sure pedestrians against both. They're the
ones who stand most in need of insurance at
the present"
Quite right" admitted the other: "but
you'd have to make the rates SO high as
to be almost prohibitive or else you'd lose
money on the scheme
And the enthusiast sighed. for he realized
that it was even so.

The tire is certainly the most i'm

cycle. 1t requires more care and at
tention than the whole wheel itself

But be that as it may, devices are
being made to remedy puncture
quickly and efficiently.

and you'll live longer
Don't fail to tell the dealer what you ran
into. This riding easy on a smooth road
IS all right, but. Dealers are sometimes
members OF the Ananias club themselves.
Don't forget that cycle clerks are human
and that they have feelings as well as your,

go beyond that.

In the other. Each gong has hammer

1EEer side. combined with a hammer
movable in circular path, and means
t. operate the hammer to sound each
gong.
The hammer projects from the base
OF the bell and has a small handle at

the hammer for each separate gong
is engaged, and the result is a series of
rapid. chimelike detonations that can
easily be heard for some distance.
BICYCLE TELEGRAPH.
A bicycle for laying field telegraphs
Tor military purposes was recently
tried with success by number of army
officers.
1t consists of an ordinary pneumatic
tired safety, with two or three reels or
drums of about four inches in circum-
terence attached to it, On each of
THESE is wound twisted wire, composed
OF six fine steel threads possessing great
stralning- power. and every reel carries
mile length of wire. The wire passes
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1896-07-12

over a wheel connected with a tele-
6phic receiver.
AS the rider pedals along the rotation
of the bicycle unWinds the wire from
the drum, leaving it on the ground.
When the drum is nearly emptied a
bell warns the rider that he has to dis
mount and change the drum, at the
same time attaching the wire to the
new one to pay out another length.
In order to send a message back to
the starting point the rider fixes in the
ground an earth rod, which at once
establishes connection. The appa-
ratus is constructed on the principle Of
a special sounder, devised for sending
powerful currents through a. thin con-
ductor at a great length.
USEFUL FOR THE MILITARY.
The apparatus weighs seven pounds,
and each mile of wire ten pounds.
1t is claimed this bicycle will be very
useful for military purposes. 1t will
enable telegraphic communication to be
obtained at less cost and with greater
expedition than by the present military
system of wagons, and it would be spe-
cially available for scouting and out
post purposes.
Bicycle pedals are now being pro-
vided with foot gauges for the recep-
ton of the riders heels. They consist
OF wire penI 10 form yoke ana
twisted near it's end to form spiral
springs. 1t is claimed that this at
tachment will hold the riders feet in
proper position on the pedals.
A novel construction for driving me-
chanism adds another to the long list
of inventions of this character The
one in question comprises a sprocket
wheel provided with pins spaced apart
for the reception between them of teeth
on the driving chain. The driving
chain is composed Of links, having in,
clined-faced teeth. Rollers are mount
ed on, the pins, and the teeth on the
driving chain are constructed TO enter
and seat snugly between said rollors

ABOUT BICYCLE ToGGERY.-
What Women Riders Can, May and
DO Wear.

DO Wear.
Dressmakers and women,s --tailors
have been sorely put to it since the i'm
vention of the bicycle for an appropri-
ate garb, says the American Wheel
man. and between the demands for
liberty of limb, and the restrictions of
conventionality they had problem
which intellects atrophied by long
years of subscribing to custom COPIED
with in vain. Between the knicker-
booker and the skirt there yawned
gulf-and does yet for that matter
that decadent inventive faculty could
not bridge. Freedom Of motion and
liberty of limb were incompatible with
skirts; the emancipation to the knick-
erbocker set the conventional world
aghast. What then? The divided skirt
proved to be a sartorial compromise
that was a boon. The women of the
Sandwich Islands have for many years
known of the virtues of the divided
skirt, and they go galloping horseback
around the island with great ease and
grace. On the bicycle the divided skirt
has most Of the disadvantages of petit
coats, and none of the advantages Of
knickerbockers, but feminity-With
Characteristic lack of logic-saw in the
divided skirt a miracle of Characterization
and eagerly seized upon it. The di-
vided skirt, then, is a great feature.
AS for the favorite colors. any women
of any sense and judgment knows that
from time immemorial only quiet, re-
fined, neutral tints are suitable for
pronounced publicity; nuns gray, navy
blue, brown from a bolden to a seal
tint, uncompromising black-these are
always the sign and seal of the gentle
woman. After perforee seeing the
solemn and labored announcement for
tWenty-nine consecutive Sundays that
dark gray will be a favored color,
with women of good taste this season.

same ancient and overworked state

wonders why sky blue; pink or an
