THE FOOD OF THE POOR.

The studies of the foods of people
of the poorer classes, especially in the
large cities, are full of interest. We
have been wont to say the destruction
of the poor is their poverty" but here
it is rather their improvidence. They
suffer less from lack of money than
from lack Of economy in it's USE Often
this bad economy is due to pride and
unwillingness to economic, and often
it is due only to ignorance.
A large number of the investigations
just referred to were made by a lady
physician, who has practiced for a
number of years among the poorest
people in New York. She lately re-
marked: Il think l know personally
at least four hundred families in the
worst congested region of this city. l
have practiced my profession among
them, am familiar with their ways,
their family histories, and many of
their family tragedies. I have seen a
great deal of the mission work done
among them by religious organizations,
and can bear most emphatic testimony
to its usefulness. But if l were to cay
where the philanthropist must begin
if he will improve their physical and
hence their intellectual and their
moral condition, it would be at the
table. There is no one respect in
which there is so great need of reform
among them-no one way in which so
much good can be done-as in the i'm
provement of their food and their nu-
triton. Review of Reviews.

emily leased in Miss Heads name. but
Webster paid the rent for them. Some
months ago Webster left for Europe.
He confided the care of his charge to
his friend, Al Stetson, and she and the
dead man have been intimate friends
ever since. Some things which have
happened led Stetson's friends to think
that he might be in love with the
woman, but those who knew him most
intimately pooh-poohed the idea as a
preposterous one.
The suicide theory has much to back
it up. The more it is discussed and
looked into the more probable it ap-
pears. Stetson's intimates admit he
had been travelling the pace that kills.
His appetite for drink seemed uncon-
trollable, and he became gloomy and
respondent at times.
When a man is drinking he is liable
to commit suicide at any time. A
mood will drive him to self-destruction
when liquor is tuning in his brain.
He was universally we'll thought Of,
and many of his friends, recollecting
his CHEEKY manner on the day of the
shooting, are loath to believe his was
! the hand that shot the bullet through
! his brain.
I The facts point strongly to suicide
superinduced by sickness, absinthe and
J melancholia. AS to the theory of Eoul
play, that is only plausible if an at
/ tirmative answer can be given to the
question, Was there third person
present at his death?'

RUSSIA'S MYSTERY.

The mystery which is embodied in
the spectacle of the coronation of
Nicholas II. is tWofold 1t includes the
problem of Russia's internal future,
the battle yet to be finished between
the policy of restraint and the spirit of
liberty, between the shadows of mys-
ticism and the light of practical relig
ion, and it also includes the future re-
lations of Russia toward the world.
Russia's ponderous force is not neces-
sarily terrifying, but it is portentous
until We see plainly what will be done
with it. Is she to prove a giant child
playing with the tremendous toys Of
science and statecraft, or will there
emanate from her genuine purpose Of
progress, slow perhaps, mistaken,
probably, but neither malevolent nor

THE NEW SWISS WHEEL.

The bicycle face and the bicycle back
will disappear if the new wheel in
vented by Charles Challand, a professor
Of mathematics at Geneva, Switzer-
land, is generally adopted. Benjamin
H. Ridgely, the United States consul at
Geneva, has sent to the secretary Ct
state sketch of the wheel, with a let
ter describing it. The bicycle differs
from the modern safety in this respect
only: The pedals are placed over the
forward wheel and the rider sits in a
natural posture and has a support be-
hind him like the back of a chair The
bicycle has pneumatic tires, diamond
frame, Sprocket wheels and chain, and
all other features of a modern machine.
The rider, instead of pedaling up and
down, and leaning forward so that his
back resembles an Interrogation point,
pedals forward and backward and sits
back comfortably, like a man in a re-
Ginning chair. The clerks in the state
department who ride wheels have eX-
amined the sketch, which arrived from
Switzerland yesterday, and say hat
II1C pl O1C0oO1 Ill "O1 nave "
follow figures for living much longer.
There is a wheel quite similar to the
Swiss machine which has been in use
in this country for some time, but it is
claimed that the American wheel does
not promise the speed and other advan-
tages of the imported article.
1t is claimed for the Swiss machine
+hH+ 10 inh I,O
pies is not only infinitely easier. but
that by means of the support for the
back, his forces are far more eff9c-
lively utilized and with considerably
less fatigue. His position is held to
the normal position of a man sitting,
and the bicycle is, therefore, called La
Bicyclette Normale
The inventor says that the principle
of his machine is the utilization of he
force very little known, which is FUR
nished by a point of support for the
back. Without this support the only
force man has is his own weight. On
the other hand, if his back be we'll
supported, he has in each leg force
mere than treble his own weight, and
which is, in fact, equal to the weight
he is capable of carrying combined
with that Of his own body. The con.
/ struction of the normal bicycle is in
! tended to make use of this considerable
amount of wasted force. The point OF
support is the back of the seat, by
means of which the riders body is
| thrown back and his legs lifted up, CIV
| ing to the position of the pedals. The
body is thus placed in a normal pos
! ture, hence the name of the machine;
! the body is upright or leaning slightly
backward. The normal bicycle, the
| inventor says, presents the advantages
/ of greater safety, perfect comfort
! healthful position, greater power over
the machine, greater speed, both uphill
and on level ground, and less fatigue
1t is also claimed for this bicycle that
/ being much lower than the ordinary
safety bicycle, it is much easier to
mount.
Consul Ridgely concludes his letter
/ by saying that the bicycle has made a
! favorable impression in Geneva and
that the ease with which it is driven
uphill is particularly noticeable

The city has started a guaranty fund

$4,000 have been added by subscrip-
ton among employers. The society
hopes to enroll enough members to
meet all liabilities likely to ocur.
