esting and instructive given for long
time. 1t Is open to the public free of
charge and the exhibitors had to pay no

the wheeling club. The display will con-
tinue tomorrow from 2 to 10 P. NJ, with a
a programme in the evening at $50.
This includes half-mile bicycle races be-
tween crack riders of the association on
the Home Trainer" The wheel is set on
rollers in frame and the rider goes
through every motion of road riding, even
to keeping his balance, but never advances
an inch. 1t is much like a treadmil
There are indicators SO arranged as to give
accurate measure of distances travelled.
