SMART BICYCLE THIEVES.
They Took the Wheel From the
Rider to Settle SIS Bet.

The bicycle thief is inventive this
year. A young man was practicing cir
cles in front of his house. when two
fellows stopped on the pavement to ad-
mire him. One of them asked how
much the wheel weighed, and the young
man said it weighed twenty-five pounds
The smaller of the two said that was
too light, and that he believed in wheels
weighing at least thirty pounds. Also,
he mentioned that he once came in first
in ten-mile race and rode wheel
weighing thirty-eight pounds. At this
the larger of the strangers laughed de-
risively, and said:
What do you know about wheeIs?"
why. I've ridden more wheels than
you ever saw" replied the other.
IT don't believe you can ride at ALL
"Pll bet you $5 I can. Let me show
him on your wheel. I won't hurt it,
He could ride all right. He wobbIed
slowly on the wheel for short distance
and then swished around the corner
and was away like the wind
You'd better run after that fellow"
said the big stranger; IT don't know
him."
The owner of the wheel set off. but
the short stranger must have been a
mile away by that time. Then when the
owner came back the big stranger also
had gone.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

cigarettes could be purchased but no
smoking tobacco. Brother bennett
deeming the pipe a special invention of
the evil one. On Sunday nothing could
be purchased at all, and only under
protest would the livery stable hire
horses and carriages on the Lords day.
To accept the advertised invitation of
Brothers Montgomery and bennett to
patronize their establishment was to
leave no doubt in their minds that you
were a sinner to be looked after. 1t has
been funny to hear the anathemas
hurled against the place by departing
guests, all vowing that they would
never come again and pay for the Saliva
ton Army privileges which were SO un-
expectedly sprung on them. The an
griest Of ALL it seemed to me, were two
Episcopal clergymen of my acquain-
tance. One, a venerable man, had,
While taking a walk in the woods, been

as in previous years, ordered a bottle of
beer for his refreshment. He was
sternly rebuked by pious waiter.

for the many who year after year
sought rest and pleasure and health in
its tonic air. But next season there will
be no taking of money under false pre-
lenses, no Turing of sinners in search of
fun into the sphere of saving influence.
1t is to be a consecrated pleasure resort
and 1t will be advertised that no dane
ing or other frivolities will be allowed
am also informed that Brothers Mont
gOmery and bennett will incorporate
the place, together with Lytton Springs,
which they own, issue 100000 of
stock and float it among church people
of the East, among whom both have
great influence. Hence it is not likely
that they will themselves be out of
pocket by the annual loss which the two
hotels will suffer.
1t has been a green experience, this
translation into community that be-
longs in it's ideas and feelings to the
last century, but it does one good to
learn that his own circle is but one
among many, and that people who think
him mad are not always or necessarily
mad themselves. And it is gratifying
to know that California, notwithstand-
ing it's reputation, can show a piety as
fervid in itself, and as annoying to the
unregenerate as any State in the Union.
not excepting Massachusetts and Con-
necticut. It is a pleasing revelation
and as soothing to State pride as the
fiourishing condition of our press ana

AT KLAMATH HOT SPRINGS.
People Who Are SOjournins at That Very
Charming Resort.
The Big Trout Story Again - How
Visitors Pass the Sum-
mer Days.

|
klamath Hot Springs, Siskiyou County,
August Sd, sends the following notes
concerning visitors there:
We had heavy rainstorm here last
week, accompanied by hail. thunder
and lightning, but the weather now is
delightful, though the evenings are
quite cool. Many guests have departed
for home and others arriving by every
stage.
The mud, sulphur and vapor baths
are literally patronized by all.
Mr.. and Mrs. H. 3. Havens of San
Francisco, accompanied by a guide,
left the springs yesterday on a deer
hunt, and as Mr.. Havens is a noted
hunter no doubt the guests will enjoy
venison steaks in day or two Mr..
Havens caught a seven and a half
pound trout last evening in Shovel
Creek, not over $50 yards from the
hotel
Fishing is fine, and large numbers of
trout are being caught, and friends Of
the guests in the cities are receiving
fine messes.
Eugene Coty and wife Of Sacramen-
to arrived last night. This is their
seventh annual outing at this resort
They were accompanied by Mrs. John
Breuner, Misses Kittie and Carrie
Rreuner, Miss Belle Adams and w. Fl.
Eckhardt. This is quite a Sacramento
resort, and all the guests are loud in
their praises, declaring it is a beautiful
spot in which to spend a vacation.
Dove shooting is not as good as last
year, still many are being killed
Many of the guests go horseback rid
ing and are having lots of fun Many
trout averaging one and half pounds
are found dead in Shovel Creek this
year. Your correspondent counted
twenty-five in half-mile An old res
ident here says that during the spawn
ing season these trout are confined in
large fish traps and kept there a month
without food, and in trying to get out
they bruise themselves about the head,
so on being liberated lots of them die
not only from the bruises, but they are
nearly starved.
Now, can't this cruel practice be
stopped? 1t is shame that such fine
trout are killed. Sportsmen who go
fishing and find dead trout strewn
along for three miles are condemning
the practice. This matter should be
looked after by those in authority. If
not attended to soon, in a few years
there will be no fishing here at all.
The late arrivals here are: Mrs. J.

subject of the new picture is the defense
of art and industry by the army. Small
figures personating the arts and in
dustries stand in a Gothic recess, before
which stands an armed Teutonic war

ghostly forms, which are outlined in a

The report published a few days ago
by the "Voerwaerts," the organ of the
Socialists, that Professor Mendel a
specialist on mental diseases, had gone
to st. Petersburg in response to a sum-
mons from the imperial family, raised
much comment. 1t was generally
thought that the doctors visit was con-
nected with the CZar, when the "Tage-
blatt" with some show of authority, as
sured the public that the sufferer the
professor had been summoned to at
tend was not an imperial parsonage, but
a person of princely rank. Professor
Mendel has returned to Berlin, but he.
of course, is silent as to the object of his
visit
Heiligendamm, an aristocratic resort
on the shore Of the Baltic, is the scene of
a curious legal prosecution. The pub
lie prosecutor. learning that pigeon
shooting contest was proceeding, sent
gendarmes to ascertain the names of
those taking part in the sport, and to
serve a summons on them. 1t has since
been learned that one of the party who
