CONTEMPORARY OPINION.
PROGRESS on THE BICYCLE


Lovers of the bicycle-and they are
legion-are awaiting with interest the
coming of the chainless wheel. 1t is
announced that it is coming soon. and
it is expected that it will be a consid-
erable improvement over the wheel
now in use, being easier to care for.
other minor Improvements are also on
the way. although no marked innova-
tion will be made. 4 he wheel. as manu-
featured now, is extremely satisfactory
and manufacturers naturally are con-
servative in adopting innovations that
are not sure to be favored by the pub
lie.
Something new in wheels is reported
from Switzerland. II is The invention
OF Charles Challand, OF Geneva The
saddle of this bicycle is developed into
a seat, and IL is dropped back almost
Immediately over the centre of the rear
wheel, the steering bar being length
ened to enable the driver to control
the wheel without bending forward.
The inventor says that the principle
OF the machine is the utilization of the
considerable amount OF force very lit
tie known. which is afforded by a
point OF support Without this point
of support. the only force q man has
Is his own weight. On the other hand,
if the back be well supported, he has
in each leg a force more than treble
his own weight, and which is, in fact
equal to the weight he is capable OF
carrying combined with that of his
body. The construction of the Nor
NAL Bicycle" is intended to make use
Of this considerable amount OF wasted
force.
The point of support in the new
wheel is the back OF the seat by
means of which the cyclists body is
thrown back and his legs lifted up
owing to the position of the pedals
| The body is thus placed in normal
posture. The rider is upright or lean
! ing slightly backward. it is
claimed that this norma" ma
chine presents the advantages OF
greater safety, perfect comfort healthy
position. a greater power over the ma
chine, greater speed. both up hill anC
on level ground, and less fatigue. 1t il
also claimed for this bicycle that
being much lower than the ordinar!
so-called safety" bicycle. it is mucl
easier to mount 1t has been tried il
the streets of Geneva and made a ia
vorable impression. The ease will
which it ascends hills was particularly
noticeable The bicycle has no
reached its full development by an.

Second. A diminution of the annual
convictions for felony (excluding mis-
demeanors) from 1877 per 100000 OF
population in 1864 to 81 per 100000 in
1884, being a reduction of SO per cent,
or more than one-half.
II these results can be got in other
countries they can be got here. Any
brand of statesmanship that can ig-
more or neglect such facts is not
worthy OF the name. Il may be com
petitive politics or struggles for power,
but it is not the kind Of statesmanship
by which nations are blessed and the
names of great public benefactors made
immortal.
Unless it be seriously coptended that
our people are more criminally in
clined than others which SENS to me
ridiculous is no reason to doubt
that similar measures Of reform in
our commonwealth would produce sim
liar results. They could certainly make
existing evils no worse, and unless
there be some deep-seated peculiarity
with us. which no one has yet sug-
gested. they may be fairly expected to
operate here, as they have done else
where, namely, to reduce the public
expenditure. satisfy the fair demands
OF honest labor, reduce the swelling
volume of crime. and be of priceless
reformatory value to the convict. Con-
ceive of the boon to our entire popula-
tion of a diminution of SO per cent. Of
the crime now liable to desolate every
home, and which is at this moment in
creasing faster than the increase OF
population.

those who are directly interested in tn,

STRIKES FROM THE SHOULDER.
Evangelist Moody makes converts by
striking straight from the shoulder
He is one Of the most successful evan
gelists OF modern times because he
does not mince words with his hearers.
If a man has a weak spot in his char
acter he is likely to reach it. Here is
an extract from one of his recent ad-
dresses, in New York:
Men have asked me, why it is that
the followers of Mahomet, who lived
hundreds of years after Christ was on
earth, are more numerous than the fol-
lowers of Christ. II is very easy for
me to answer that MahOmet has
more followers, because one may be
guilty of the fouest and blacklist of
sins and still be a recognized follower
of Mahomet, but a follower of Christ
must give up sin. You see, men would
like to get into heaven with their sins
They can't do it. / heard a short time

because it was so valuable, and so the
childs father said to him to make ont

Those Republican friends of Colonel
Henry A. Dupont, who would like to
see him seated by the United States
Senate at the approaching session, are
getting but cold comfort out of their
various trips to Washington in his be-
half. They are Informed by both Re
publicans and Democrats that the Du-
Pont case is res adjudicatus and can
not be reopened or called up unless
new evidence can be produced, in
which event the whole matter would
have 60 go back to the Committee on
Privileges and Elections This has led
the DUPONT men to practically give up
the fight and a Democrat, elected by
the approaching General Assembly
will take the seat vacated by Senator
Higgins. ANY suggestion that Senator
Gray will aid the movement to seat
the genial colonel because he is a
sound money man comes from persons
who are ignorant of the attitude as
sumed by Mr. Gray at the time the Du
Pont claim was being heard before
the committee and Senate.

WENT UNDER THE BRIDGE.

Yuma Sentinel: The gasoline boat. Aztec, left her landing at the foot of Main street last Tuesday morning about g o'clock for the Pobholes. When going through the prison hill cut she got caught on a sandbar. A few min utes later her engine was stopped and shortly afterward the swift current of 'the Colorado river swung her partially around and off the sandbar. She then foated broadside with the current dow and struck one of the piers of the bridge and continued a half mile fur they down before it was ,towed to shore. On examination it was found that the damage done was slight, the strong back and wheel being the only things about her broken.
 Judging from a view of the bridge the men on board must have lost their presence of mind, for they failed to start the engine up when the sandbar was cleared.
 The owner, Chas Weissihuhu, can consider himself very fortunate in es- caping with so small financial Joss.
 The boat was repaired and in the aftermoon started again for her des- with better success.

 M'KINLEY'S TIDAL WAVE It Has Now Reached California. The Golden State Places Her self in Line. Spreckles Refuses to Go to St. Louis Save In Allison's
 Interest.

SACRAMENTO, May 4.-Trat Cali fornia will join the Mckinley process sion seems to be settled fact.
 The state Republican convention meets here tomorrow and a majority of the delegates are wearing Mckinley badges and shouting for the Ohio man.
 The sentiment is not unanimous, however. One of the two contesting San Francisco delegations, under the leadership of John ID. Spreckels is making hard battle for an unin- structed delegation and they have not yet given up the fight. Spreckels, who aspires to be leader of the Republican party in this state, is a candidate for delegate at large. He is a pronounced Allison man and today announced if the convention should insist on sending an instructed delegation he will with draw as a candidate and the RepubM- can party will have to get along with out his active support Spreckels de- nies he made the statement credited to him and says that he will abide by the decision of the convention.
 Owing to the wave of McKinleyism which appears to have swept over the state, it is extremely probable that silver will suffer. zTIhere seems to be a disposition among delegates to ig- nore silver or at most to give free coin. age but a half-hearted endorsement.
 The fight for the chairmansip of the convention has narrowed down to Frank Coombs of Napa and w. B. Ar thur of Pasadena.

A RICH GOLD PROPERTY.
Now Being Developed in Yuma
 County

Yuma Sentinel: Frank Wells. after a visit in San Francisco of several weeks, returned to Yuma Tuesday. MT. WeNs owns several promi sing prospects in the northern part of the ChuckaWallas. He shipped severa, toms of ore from his mines to the Selby Smelting and Lead company, Of the above named city. The ore is free milling and exceedingly rich, averag- ing $1S8.57 in gold for three tons. aud some of the ore went as high as $1 ,OOO. MT. Wells on reaching San Francisco contracted a severe cold and was under doctors care for fourteen days and for awhile grave fears were entertained by his physician that he would be called, to that land from whence no visitor returneth.
 As soon as MT Wells regains his strength he will leave for his mines with a force of miners and thoroughly develop his mining property.
 Hon. Frank Cox of Phoenix and the popular attorney of the Southern Pa cific company, owns an interest in the mines.

THE MURDERED GIRL.
More Testimony Concerning Pearl
 Bryan's Case.

NEWPORT, May 4.-J. B. Locke. who owns the farm where the body of Pearl Bryan was found, testified that he found two spots of blood on the ground and also on the leaves and bushes. He saw marks of the wheNs of carriage on the grass close beside the gate that led from the road to the spot where the body was found.
 Geo. Dayton, the bartended, was placed on the stand, but was unable to answer any questions put to him. On cross-examination the prosecution had him identify the letter received from John Seward of Somerset, Ken lucky, a detective working in the in- terest of Scott Jackson. The letter contained formal statement of mat ters which Seward asked the witness to testify when called at the court. The court ruled the letter out.
