1t is not generally known that with one ex-
ception all bicycles sold this season have only a
six months guarantee. This is a decided cut Of
the only protection a purchaser has.
No matter what the grade of a wheel, high
or low, they are just as liable TO have a de-
fective part, and 1t will certainly work a hard
ship at the end of the guarantee season TO find
that just when ii needs a guarantee most that
it, has expired. This puts the IDE bicycle away
on top, as it is the only wheel sold in Indian
apoliS that gives a written guarantee for twelve
months. Ide bicycles have a national reputation
for stability; is the superior Of any wheel made.
The price, $50, is enc figure to all. We allow
q per cent. more ON old wheels than the COM

DAM BREAKS IN COLORADO
Warning Given and All Hut Two Persons
Saved by Flight.

Denver, Col, July 9.-News reached
here at a late hour tonight OF a disas-
trous food caused by the breaking OF a
dam near Ward, Jefferson county, by
which two lives are known TO have been
lost, and property estimated at from
$50, 900 to 500, 900 in value destroyed. De-
tails OF the affairs are meagre as the
place is off the railroad, and the tele-
phone connection is broken. The reser-
voir belongs to the Left Hand Ditch
company, and covers thirty-four acres
of land. The rain which has been fall
ing all over Colorado for the past thirty
six hours had 50 swelled the volume Of
water in the reservoir, and at the same
time weakened the dam that at about 9
o'clock tonight Il gave away. and a wall
OF water twenty feet high rushed down
the valley, carrying everything before
il John Lowery saw that the dam was
sure to break and warned the residents
below and II is believed that all escap-
ed except Mrs. James Matthews and her
5-year-old daughter Myrtle, whose home
was in narrow portion of the valley.

Washington, July 9.-President Nc
Kinley will spend most OF his summer
vacation on the shores of Lake Cham

town. His parry wih consist OF the men,
bers of the presidential family, Vice
President and Mrs. Hobart, Secretary
Alger and family, Secretary and Mrs.

members of families OF officials OF the
city. The president will make quite a
prolonged stay, lasting several weeks,
at least.
He has no plans perfected beyond this
but said ne would take a western trip
in July provided congress adjourned in
time.
The presidents summer plans were in
formally talked over with the members
OF the cabinet today. II congress ad-
journs in season he will go to Chicago
to attend the Logan Day ceremonies on
the 23rd install, and it is possible he
may seize the opportunity to go further
west, as he IS not expected at the Cham
plain resort before August 1. The selec-
ton of the Lake Chsmplain region
as the place for spending the heated
term was owing originally to a sugges-
ton from Secretary Porter and upon
Secretary Cages hearty endorsement OF
the place, the manager of one OF the
lake hotels was summoned TO Washing
ton and the conditions OF the presidents
stay were definitely arranged. The no
