ON THE.

The Scientific American,
which everyone acknowledges
as the leading scientific paper
in the United States, devotes
nearly a page of its issue of
January 4th to the considera-
ton of bicycles. 1t selected
the Tribune as the highest
type of the best American
wheel made today. 1t says:
within the past three years,
the American bicycle industry
has grown up to dimensions
which fairly entitle it to be
considered representative of the
country and of the day. Every
day sees hundreds of wheels
of high and low grade made in
the factories of this country for
the American and foreign mar
ket. Three years ago the
English bicycle was consider
ed by many the best wheel,
and the possesSor of such was
apt to consider himself better
equipped than his friend who
rode one of American manu-
facture. Now, all is changed.
A visitor to England or to the
Continent, if a cycling enthu-
SiaSt, cannot fail to be impress
ed by the superiority of Amer
lean wheels as contraSted with
the foreign ones, and no wheel
man really AL fat in his sub
ject would dream of buying
his wheel abroad, so superior
is the American make. The
industry has brought about an
enormous development in the
manufacture of special tools
and of parts of bicycles.
Many assumed bicycle man
ufacturers simply buy these
parts and do their own as
Sembling. But for the produc-
ton of the absolutely high
grade American bicycle, a
factory is required which will
turn out practically all the
parts of the wheel manufac-.
tured, for unless such is done
one concern cannot be answer
able for the perfection of the
whole machine.
We select as the representa-
tive of such a factory the works
OF the Black Manufacturing
Company, of Erie, Pa. a COM
pany which produce the high
est grade of wheel and which
put it on the market purely on
its merits without the ADVENT
tiouS advertisement of paid
riders. The wheel made by
this company, the Tribune
Bicycle" embodies the best
possible practice and is cores
pondingly free from structural
variations of improved merit"
Such praise from such a
high source should satisfy any
one of the superior merits of
the Tribune wheels.
We have them in all varieties
of the 1896 patterns. in Tan
demS, Racers, Ladies or gents
wheels, and shall be happy to
show the 1896 Improvements
to intending purchasers.

Whereas the Beers OF the
Transvaal have not only shut
the foreigners out of all part i'll
the direction of national affairs,
but have opposed their counsels
for reforms and as a special in
stance, stubbornly INSTRUCTED the
educational progress necessary to
make the country equal to its
neighbors in intelligence and in
dustry. These are facts attested by
host of witnesses, one of whom
is an American lady mission
airy who arrived in Boston lately
from the Transvaal. Although
the foreign residents of Johannes
burg, even the British, are said
to have had British annexation
farther than anything from their
thoughts, and been averse
to violent measures, yet 1t
was only a matter of time when
the grievance of taxation without
representation, the identical
cause of the American Revolution
would have borne fruit in public
disturbance. Out Of the misguid'
ed action of the valorous DIR
jameson, belated common sense
in some measure came to the Boel
rulers, as it is stated that Presi
dent Krueger's shrewdness in out
whiting the filibusters consisted il
his making concessions to the ag
grieved foreigners. Thereby h'
kept them quiet while his brave
, people went out and did up tn,

1t does not look well to see a
paper that has always professed
to be the leading supporter of the
Government assuming a strong
partisan attitude with regard to a
pending diplomatic question be-
tween the United States Min
lister and this Government. The
Governments placed in peculiar
position by such conduct of one
OF its reputed organs. If it is
right in the controversy with the
Minister, its claim to be so is not
strengthened by newspaper at
tack on that gentleman. According
to information the BULLETIN has
had in possession, the Min
lister has referred to his own
Government the question in
dispute, which is whether foreign
representatives here should recog-
nize the holiday proclaimed by
this Government in commemora-
ton of the Provisional Govern
ment's natal day, when their gov
ernments had never recognized
the Provisional Government. The
question having been thus sub
mitted to the Government of the
United States, until decision is
given by that Government it is
scarcely mature enough for public
discussion here. Hawaii's rela-
tons with the United States are
so intimately connected with the
prosperity of this country, that
any cause of offense to the Gov
eminent of our great neighbor
ought to be sedulously avoided.

In the report of an opium seiz-
ure in yesterdays paper it was
said that one of the stewards of
the Australia was arrested. The
reporters informant was in error.
There are only three stewards on
the steamer the chief, the second
and the steerage stewards and
neither of these is implicated in
any opium deal. The person ar
rested held the position of assist
ant messman on the Australia.
The annoyance naturally caused
to the stewards by the statement
in question is much regretted by
the BULLETIN.

HENKE'S FOUL SLAYERS MAY
HAVE PASSED THROUGH BUR-
LINGTON-s5O NOW OFFERED.

It, was reported that the murderers
of John Y. Henke, formerly of New
Castle, had been seen at Burlington, N.
j., yesterday.
D. Porter Oliver. a young baker, of
that city was standing on East Broad
street, near High early in the morn
ing, and as Il west-bound freight pass
ed he noticed two colored men hiding
in one of the box cars. When they
saw Oliver they quickly drew back
out of sight.
The news spread rapidly, and It was
soon reported that Cromwell and his
strange companion had passed through
the town on a freight train.
The authorities in Delaware sent
word that they had two colored men
under arrest who might possibly be
the Henke murderers. Clifford S.
Price, who is well acquainted with
Cromwell, has gone there to see if he
can identify either of the suspects as
the man wanted.

HIGH WATER OFF CHERRY IS
LAND.
The big steamship Susquehanna
owned by Vice-P Presidential candidate,
Arthur Sewall, which cleared from
Philadelphia last Wednesday, went
aground hard and fast yesterday on
the lower end of Cherry Island flats.
The Susquehanna was proceeding
down the river with a cargo of 1900
cases of petroleum for Hiogo. Japan,
when she began to scrape bottom, and
few minutes later she was fast.
Three tugs went to her assistance and
tried to float her at high tide, but
failed. She will be gotten off to-day,
if It should become necessary to re-
move part of the cargo.
The Susquehanna is commanded by
Captain J. b. Sewall a nephew of the
Nlce-Presidential candidate. She is

Several riverside residents are enjoy

usually scarce and command fancy

steamship agents have decided that it
is better to jettison their cargoes be-
fore reaching port whenever any of
the fruit shows signs Of ripening too
quickly. Heretofore this fruit has been
neglected and, before the cargo could
be discharged at Philadelphia, the
fruit has become over-ripe. Then
Italians buy it mp and beat down the
prices by exposing and hawking this
over-ripe fruit. Especially has this
been true of bananas and prices have
been 'pinched" to an alarming ex-
tent.
Accordingly, countless numbers OF
