The Craze For Sigh Cvole cranes.

The unusual demand for high frames is
a marked feature of the present cycling
season. The theory that high frames are
best for all cyclers is erroneous and has
brought about many improbable pur-
chases. Nothing is gained from the use of
a high frame if your anatomy is of a sort
suitable to a low or medium frame
The height of frame is to be determined
only by the riders length of reach. The
fact that high frames look natty, speedy
and undoubtedly more up to date than
the smaller sizes should have no weight
with the rider in making his selection. The
ball of the foot must rest comfortably on
the pedal when it is at its lowest point, and
space for as comfortable a saddle as the
rider requires must be provided for, so the
frame height is an arbitrary thing over
which the rider can have no choice beyond
the limit fixed by nature in fashioning his
person

M'KINLEY MAY TOUR.
IF Bryan Makes a Personal Canvass
he Nav Also.

Canton, O., July 1.-THE impression
prevails here that it was Bryan's ora
ton which Won him the nomination,
and that but for the fiery eIoquence
with which he stampeded the conven-
ton. he would have stood no show for
nomination.
It is thought the oratory which won
in this case will be regarded as potent
by the campaign managers and that
Bryan will be put on the stump for a
personal canvass. This naturally
causes discussion here as to whether
the Republican managers will not fol-
low the same course and have NIcKin-
ley make a tour
His capability in that line is already
known and while no one in authority
pretends to know positively that such
will be the case it is expected that he
win at least make a campaigning tour

the country and plunged it into a civil
war, was in the height of his power.
For time he was a member of one of
BaImaceda's various cabinets, but he
shifted his ground quickly enough to
retain his popularity when the govern
ment was restored. When DR.. MacIver
formed a new ministry in 1894, he Sc
lected Errazuriz as minister of justice.
President Errazuriz is recognized now
as one Of the leaders of the Liberal par
ty in Chile and is actively opposed to
the Balmacedists. He was born in 1849
and was carefully educated at the col
lege in Santiago. He inherited his posi-
ton and most of his wealth from his
father, who was an extensive landown-
er and merchant and was at one time
president of Chile himself. One of the
best warships in the Chilean navy is
named President ErraZuriz, after the
father of the present incumbent.
A president is elected in Chile once
in five years, and the elections are con-
Quoted much after the manner of ours.
The people vote for electors in the vari-
GUS provinces in the proportion of three
electors to each deputy sent to congress.
A retiring president cannot be a candi-
date for reelection until after at least
one term has interviewed.
Jorge Montt, whom President Err
razuriz succeeds, leaves the executive
chair with a clean record. He was an
admiral in the Chilean navy when Bal
maoeda seized the government and was
one of those men who was instrumental
in keeping the navy out Of the clutches
Of the dictator. At the beginning of his
administration the republic was in
disorganized state, and, while not
brilliant statesman, he had the common
sense and honesty to surround himself
with able men so that he has been able
to restore the country to state of pros
perity and peace.

TEXAS STARTED IT.
The Movement Toward Bryan Origin
ated in That Delegation.

Chicago, July 11-Nobody doubts that
Bryan was the stampede inaugurated
in his favor at the close of his great
speech Thursday. He had scarcely left
the platform when amidst the applause
of the multitude, Judge GateWood Of
the Texas delegation, an original Bryan
man, grabbed the standard of Texas
and bearing it high over the great au-
Nebraska delegation and placed it up
on the standard of Nebraska.
As quick as a flash this was followed
by Georgia, Louisiana, Utah and other
states until twO-thirds of the standards
of all the states clustered around those
of Nebraska and Texas. The vast au-
dience went wild with enthusiasm and
from that moment the nomination OF
Bryan was assured.

GENERAL HARRIsON'S ADIRONDACK CAMP.
sists of a group of log cabins nesting
among the stately pines which cover a
narrow point of land that juts out be-
tween First and Second lakes of the
Fulton chain. He is farther from the
mainland than he was last summer,
when he was located at Dodd camp, and
consequently he is more secluded.
The buildings are log cabins, to be
sure, but such log cabins as the Adiron-
dack natives have never seen before
The largest Of the structures is two
stories in height. has a tower on either
side and q veranda extending across the
front But it is built of logs-at least
the first story is-the second story being
frame shingled. The logs are hewn fat
on two sides, and their ends are locked
at the corners by regular log house
joints. The house has q frontage Of 48
feet and a depth of "a feet. On the first
floor IS a large living room, with cell
ing 23 feet high. A feature Of this room
is a huge fireplace made of rough boul-
ders. On the second floor are six bed
rooms, two of which are located in the
towers.
A second cottage contains a dining
room, kitchen and pantry. A third cot
tage has been built for servants, of
which there are several, including a
maid for Mrs. Harrison. The last two
buildings are in the rear of the big cabin,
which is built q little way back from
the shore of the lake. Down at the
waters edge there is a boathouse, also
built Of legs.
The ex-president and his bride have
accommodations in their sylvan retreat
for as many as a dozen guests if they
choose to entertain SO extensively. There
are fine fishing and shooting in the i'm
mediate vicinity, and from the veranda
of the cabin can be had one of the most
charming views in all the mountain
lake region.
