Charles Fitzpatrick, appeared at the state fair

''You know we left New York on the 9th

our trick act in music hall in London. but
we went to Paris for few days in sightsee-

''The Partisan women are excellent riders.
They sit their wheels well, ride fearlessly,
and look SO neat and chic when in the saddle.
You rarely see woman in Paris riding loop

in front of the hanger. The wheels used in
England have the saddle SO far over the rear
wheel that if rider puts her foot down
straight from the saddle she would be standing
upright over the saddle, and the saddle can't
be raised either, for, if so, the rider could
reach the pedals. Another thing the wheels
are built SO low that when one attempts to
make a short turn the inside pedal almost
touches the ground.

ment of the Law.
The New York Herald says that the average
wheelman does not really know how fast he
is riding, and that on paved street it is
easier to go at a ten-mile-an-hour gait than
at six. The limit in New York city is eight
miles an hour. The Herald has the follow
ing to say in regard to searching.
@Shall the scorcher scorch? Public opinion
says that he shall not do SO, the law pro-
hibits him doing SO, cyclists as body con-
him $40 for doing so, with a promise Of a
larger amount when caught again-yet he
scorches. A cure for the scorcher that will
cure is as much, probably more. desired by
the average bicyclist by the citizen who
lives in daily fear of the wheel.
''The recent wholesale fines by Magistrate
Simms is making that gentleman and cycleI
a terror to many riders who do not fnten-
tionally exceed the speed limit, and yet
having no means to gauge their speed, are

The statement is made OH the authority Of
member of the bicycle police squad, who
has done duty On the boulevard and Eighth
avenue for several months. that the vast ma
jority of bicycle riders habitually exceed tht
speed limit of eight miles an hour.
1t is the exception he says, ito sex
riders pedaling at a lower speed than the
limit. He called attention to the fact thai
the time of horse cars on the thoroughbred
mentioned is six miles an hour, including
stoppages, making their actual speed wher

yet, what bicyclist does not go whizzing By
these Anticipated conveyances? Even the
children in their first essay to ride will race
the street cars, and pretty slow they con

from them.
est will be understood, therefore, that the
bicyclist needs to ride very little faster thar
one of these horse cars in order to exceed ,iht
speed limit.

HAD HIS WHEEL IN CHURCH.
Pastor Used 1t to illustrate His, Ser
mon. % y


NEW BRUNSWICK, N. j., May 22.-As an
object worthy of place before the sanctuary,
Rev. S. D. Sammis, pastor Of the Tabernacle
Baptist church, in South River, nine miles
south of this city, Sunday night placed his
bicycle before the pulpit.
Mr.. Sammis is the clergyman who has been
attracting considerable attention to himself
by using the photograph in church. He be-
Ieves In being novel or nothing and his con-
gregation is no longer surprised at anything
he advocates or introduces. Some of his fell
low clergymen have criticised Mr.. Sanaanis
severely, but he gives them more occasion to
become indignant.
Mr.. Samms' sermon was on "The Bicycle
and Religion, or the Use and Abuse of the
graph aid him IN talking of scorchers, century
runs and the bicycle face. but at the last
moment decided that the wheel in the sane
tuary would be novelty enough at one time.
"A man who cannot ride wheel on week
days" he said, "has a right to ride on Sum
days. and will get more good out of it than
listening to many clergymen I know"
Mr.. Sammis did not mention the name Of
Rev. S. A. Jenkins, of this city, who last
Sunday preached a bitter sermon against
using Photographs in church, but after serv-
Ice he said what he thought Of this critic.
"Of course, Mr.. Jenkins did not mention
my name in his Sermon said Mr.. Samms,
'but any one could know whom he meant.
If he says he did not mean me he tells an
untruth, for I am the only clergyman in the
United States, so far as I know, who has
used the monograph"
Mr.. Sammis has critics, and severe ones, in
his own congregation, but they are few.

to build some paths at Faribault.

4 Large Number Being Landed at st.
Siichaers.


Several complaints have reached the
Treasury Department recently that large
number of men bound for the Klondike
country, but without provisions or money
are now being landed at St. Mchaels
Alaska. None of the regular lines of
steamers, it is said, will book parties for
the kiondike who are not provided with Il
sufficiept amount of provisions and money
to maintain themselves for reaSona bic.
length of time without danger of suffering
Some Of the tramp lines of steamers, how
ever, are said to ship any one who can pay
for his passage, without regard to the fu-
tGre. The result is said to be that a con-
siderable crowd is accommodating in the
vicinity of ST. Michaels, who are already
becoming dependent upon the charity of
others for their food.
This unexpected situation, it is feared
will lead to trouble before the winter is
ever. and the Treasury Department has
been asked to interfere 10 prevent yes
sells from taking to Alaska persons not
properly provided. No way of exercising
any federal authority in the premises has
yet been discovered, and it is altogether
unlikely that, in the absence of action on
the part OF the states whence the vessels
sail. any restraint whatever can be ex-
ercised.
Tie coast and geodetic survey has au-
thorized Augustus f. Rodgers, in charge
of the bureaus San Francisco office. to
proceed with an assistant to the head of
the Lynn canal, Alaska and make a thor
Gush survey Of that part of the Klondike
route. Particular attention will be given
TO the topography ana photography of the
Skaguay and Dyea localities. Mr. Rods-
ers will leave at once
