Military Bicycle Test.
Agents, Honolulu. n. I,

A test run of $50 miles across the
country from Fort Meade to Fort
Yates and back was recently made
under orders from Colonel Summer
by Lieutenant Cabell and two pri-
Yates from the cavalry stationed at
Fort Meade. The trail lay over
rough roads, the broken and diff
cult country along the Cheyenne
and stretches of prairie covered
with hillocks, gopher mounds and
bunch grass-conditions which
made some parts of the journey
arduous. Allowing one days rest
at Fort Yates, however, they were
on the road but seven-and-a-half
days. A troop of cavalry would
require from eight to nine days to
accomplish the march, and the re-
suit tends to confirm the prediction
of experts that the bicycle is des-
tined to perform an important
function in the military operations
of the future.

A Runaway Catcher.

Frank Ferreira, the champion
runaway catcher, had his powers
again tested yesterday morning on
King street. He was on morse
back Just at the corner of Fort and
King streets when he spled horse
and buggy coming at furious
rate along the latter thorough1are'
He made dart after the runaway
and, catching up, followed along
by the side of the animal. Flnd
ing that the bride was gone ne
resorted to the very good expedlent
of grabbing one of the horses ears
Thus most unexpectedly taken III
tow the animal slackened It's speed
and was soon stopped. The owner
proved to be Major Seward. Inc
horse was tied on Merchant stree1
but, becoming frightened, had
broken loose from its bride, run
down Merchant street, up Nuuanu
and then on to King where 1t was
stopped.

When negroes begin to load their
guns with rocks and old nails and
bits of glass to shoot each other
with, as did Tom Burns, who slip
ped up behind Joe Fleming and
turned his gun on him and pulled
the trigger, the charge taking ef-
feet in the arm and side, last night,
it begins to look as if some one
could make money selling armor
that would expell all missels of this
kind. The negro shot bled profuse-
