WHAT KILLED HIM.

The doctors in California have beer
dsputing as to whether or not a certain
young man died from the effects o.
riding a bicycle or from some other
cause. There seems to have been much
high priced testimony brought out on
both sides. Now without going into the
merits of this particular case, let us ad.
NIT for the sake of the argument that he
was without the slightest doubt killed
by the bicycle, as alleged in the language
OF the late Mr.. Tweed, "What are you
going to do about it?"
How about the three million riders
who were not killed?
How about the thousands whose fail
ing health has actually been built up by
the bicycle?
How about the hundreds of thousands
who get more comfort and happiness out
of the bicycle than from any other tempo
raj agency?
OF course people have been killed by
the bicycles. So have people been killed
by railroads, farm wagons, mules and
watermelons.
People have died in bed, and have
been choked with fish bones.
Deaths have occurred from drinking
water also from drinking other kinds Of
juice.
People have been smothered in folding
beds and blown up by kerosene oil.
Too much gas taken in the lungs has
led to bad results, but we would call the
attention of the learned NJ. DIS to the
fact that escaping gas cannot kill the
bicycle.
1t is too late to stay the progress of the
"steel steed" with any but real objec-
tions.
The people who insist upon the fatal
results that have been predicted, and
who fail to see them coming during the
life OF the present generation, now tell
us that the real effects of the bicycle will
be most apparent upon the next genera
ton. This argument has the advantage
of not being easy to refute. 1t is too much
like the fellow who has a process Of pre-
serving the roots of fence posts so they
will last hundred years. Many nervous
persons prefer to take his word for it
rather than wait and see.
1t would indeed be strange if OCCASION
ally one of the vast army of bicycle riders
wasn't killed, but the percentage is very
much smaller than of people who are
killed by railroads and in many other
ways. So, too, it must necessarily be
that as fascinating a pastime as cycle
riding some times induces its devotee to
over-exert, and the result might even be
death, but why is that an argument
against the wheel? But the bicycle is
new yet and must expect to come under
the eagle eye of the professional pessi-
mist. The great majority of physicians
endorse the life-giving safety and only
regret the occasional misuse OF it. Those
who have not yet tried it for themselves
will soon become exceedingly unfashion-
able.

If for nothing else than to see how
Chicago will manage to get around it,
the average American citizen is interest
ed in the consolidation of New York
and Brooklyn cities and the territory
adjacent into one greater New York.
The scheme has progressed long step
nearer fulfllment by the recent bill
which passed the Legislature. Under
consolidation New York city will have
an area Of 800 square miles, with Il pop
ulation Of over 3, 600, 600. The plans for
improving the united cities will include
the construction Of frequent bridges
across both the North and East rivers,
something like the numerous bridges
across the Seine at Paris and the Thames
at London. In New York, however,
there will be more difficulty to over
come in the fact that the bridges will
have to be high enough to let vessels of
all sizes pass beneath, New York being
the leading seaport Of the country, which
is not the case with either London or
Paris.

it to your repairer. Don't experiment
with it.
The bearings need thorough lubrca-
ton, but it is not necessary to oil them
for every ride. A few drops of oil fire.
quently in the bearings is far better than
lot of oil occasionally. 1t is a good plan
to have your repair man occasionally
open the bearings, clean them and fill
with vaseline.
Keep the cham thoroughly free from
dirt and well covered with graphite.
Don't oil the chain excepting possibly
the joints, and these not more than once
a month. Lubricants especially pre-
pared are much better to use where the
chain comes in contact with the sprockets.
See that every nut and screw is tight.
None of the nuts or fastenings should
be allowed to work loose. Bearings too
loose are as bad as bearings too tight, and
"happy medium" on chain tension is
better than either extreme.
Do not leave your bicycle out over
night, nor in a damp place. Keep it
where neither moths nor rust do cor
rupt, nor thieves break through and steal.
Keep the tires well filled with air,
neither 1abby, nor as hard as possible to
pump them. A soft tire punctures easier
and propels harder than one that is hard.
If the tires are cut by the edges of the
rim or by sharp objects on the road, the
dealer will not sympathize with your
claim for free repairs.
If your tire punctures have it thor
oughly repaired; if you cannot do it well
yourself, take it to the repairer. A bad
job never fails to make the tire porous.
Ifyou unconsciouslyo or accidentally ride
into a stone wall, curbing, or any other
obstacle with your bicycle, it is we'll to
have it taken apart by an expert re-
pairer and thoroughly examined; other
wise you may sooner or later come to
grief on the proverbially smooth road.
A general rule for the height of the |
saddle is to adjust it so that when pedal |
is at the lowest point, a low heel will rest |
on it without having to bend the knee.
The handle bar should be low enough in
the different positions upright, semi-rac-
ing and racing to allow the arms being
nearly straight when hands are on the
grips. A clean, bright wheel is observed
of all men. A muddy and dusty wheel
is a discredt to its possessor.

Canadian Indians.

A British writer in The Westminster
Review shows up at considerable length
the treatment :he Canadian Indians have
received from the Dominion govern
ment, pointing very large moral by
contrasting their happy condition with
that Of the Indians in the United States.
He says that Canada saw the task be-
fore her in the beginning, which was
either to fight the Indians and extermi-
nate them or feed them till they had
been taught by the kind and good white
people of the Dominion how to feed
themselves. ITO the credit of Canadian
craftsmanship, continues the writer
Mr.. William Trant, Canada took upon
herself the task Of feeding her red chill
dren. Mr.. Trant tells us no other nation
ever adopted this policy, which is scarce
ly true, since the United States pursued
exactly the same line.
To the red men of the Dominion were
allotted lands to the extent Of a square
mile for each family. The Indians chose
their reservations themselves. No at
tempt was made to confine them to the
reservations, however. They were al
lowed to roam and to hunt freely over
the great northwest, for which Mr..
Trant takes great credit in behalf of
Canada. If the Canadians, however, had
had thickly crowding white population
hungry for land, moving heaven and
earth to get it, the problem would have
been very different.
AS it was, the Indians of Canada have
always had plenty of room. The whites
were kindly disposed to them. AT their
own request the sale of Intoxicating
drinks was prohibited on their reserva-
tions. They took kindly to civilization,
and at present own farms, and many of
them are very fair agriculturists. The
younger ones 60 out to service among
the white people-the boys as farm
hands, the girls doing homework. These
young Indians have many of them
good common school education.
Canada is to be congratulated on this
pleasant solution of her Indian question.
At the same time the Indian problem in |
Canada was nothing like so complicated |
as it has been in the United States. The |
difference is the difference between |

The Y. NJ. C. 4. to Celebrate Its An
niVcrsnry.

niNcrsnry.
The Young Mems Christian assocla-
tiOn of this city was organized six
years ago last month, The celebration
OF the event has been necessarily post
poncd. Tomorrow It will be observed
at the morning service OF nearly all
tho city churches by a sermon about
young men by the respective pastors
and short statements by members OF
the directory.
The association has caused to be
printed some carefully compiled sta
Italics about young men, which VIII be
used ON this occasion. The facts
brought out in these win cause thought
full people TO consider the very vital
question OF young men and their en-
Vironments,
The progress OF the association has
been steady and continuous during the
past four years, and In no period of
that time has Tho growth been SO
marked as the present year. IL the
further plans of the year are carried
out II win mark great era In the move
ment In the city, and Fort Worth will
do a larger work for young men than
any other city In the state.
