NEWARK, N. j., Nov. 25.-Since the
yellow serpent Of the Klondike reared
his head and fascinated the people of
two hemispheres by the golden glitter
Of it's eyes, there have been many plans
devised for getting safely past the bar
rier Of frozen mountains that guard
the coveted prize. Some, have had the
earmarks Of lunacy, and some have
been Of the variety that impels people
to say, "Why didn't we think of that
before?" A plan that has provoked
more criticism and caused more COM
ment than any was born in the brain
Of Charles H. Brinkerhoff Jr., Of this
city, after severe travail Of soul and
many sleepless nights. Mr.. Brinker-
hoff proposes to build a bicycle track
to the K1ondike, provided he can Sc
cure the necessary capital to carry out
the scheme.
'"There is nothing visionary about the
PLAN" said Mr.. Brinkerhoff, when ask
ed to give publicity to his ideas on the
subject Of a Klondfke bicycle track
"On the contrary, it is the only correct
solution Of the problem Of how to
bring the gold of the Yukon within the
reach of all. 1t isn't every one who
can afford to pay the price Of a pass
age to the Klondike by the expensive
routes at present in use, but nearly
everyone owns bicycle nowadays, and
when my track Is completed the trip
to the gold district will be brought
down to two or three weeks from the
nearest American city.
ITO go into details, I may say that
the plan provides for a roadway, light
ly constructed of steel, clamped to
the sides Of the mountains where it is
not possible to arrange for a roadbed
on a fiat surface, and put together in
the strongest manner known to modern
builders. "The roadway will be fashion
ed according to mathematical princi-
pies, so as to make the journey as easy
for the bicyclists as is compatible with
such a rough mountain trip. When it is
possible, steep up-grades will be avoid
3D. and the entire road so arranged
that the mountain climbing will be
done almost without the bicyclist be-
ing aware of any uphill work. When
the nature Of the ground renders it
impossible to avoid a steep ascent, I
shall compensate the climber for his
toll by providing a down. grade run,

Hugh Wynne, at the time of Andres
execution, was an aid on Washingtons
staff, and Andre had previously be-
frienGed him. Wynne was greatly
shocked at the turn affairs had taken,
and besought Washington's permission
to visit the prisoner on the eve of his
execution.

historical accuracy went at once
it was, now close to in the evening
to the small house of one Babry, where
the prisoner was kept. 1t was but a
hundred yards from his eXcellency'S
quarters. Six Sentries marched to and
fro around it, and within the room two
officers remained day and night with
drawn swords. My pass was taken at
the door of the house. while l waited
on the road without. In a few minutes
an officer came to me with Maj Tai

countries go in to win. To say that
turfmen of England are more honest
DIS a class than those Of America is
myth. Probably MIR. Lorillard felt
bound to say what he did because he is
racing in England. If he was racing
in the United States he would probably
talk the other way"
The complaints of English papers
that Sloane was setting bad example
by betting on the races, he declared
We're merely attempts Of English sport
ing writers to get him into trouble be-
cause he was a foreigner. Sloane's
style has been fiercely criticised in Eng
land because he leans far forward on
the horse instead of sitting straight as
do the British riders. He asserts he
varies his style with each horse, which
he rides, and that he cares more for
results than for style. Finally Sloane
says that America is better field than
England, asserting that he can make
$75G00 a year at home while his earn
ingS here are not up to that figure.
The question as who may be accus-
ed Of taking the greatest liberties with

TO THE JURY TUESDAY.
Thorn Case Will Not BE Long Drawn

Out.
NEW YORK, Nov. 27.-There is every
probability that the case of Martin
Thorn on trial for the murder of Will
liam Guldensuppe will go to the jury
not later than Wednesday next, and
possibly Tuesday night, William F.
Howe, his lawyer, has promised to fin
ish his side of the case on Monday.
Thorn will testify in his own behalf
and accuse Mrs. Mack of killing Gull
densuppe. Other witnesses for the de-
Tense will probably be Mrs. Beigler, of
West Farms, of whom it IS alleged,
Mrs. Mack with C.uldensuppe, wanted
to hire house, the negotiations fail
ing because the house did not have a
sewer, and Herman Mack, Mrs. Nack's
husband. 1t is a question whether
Mack will be allowed to testify against
his wife when she is put on trial for
her life. 1t is understood that after
the defense closes Mrs. Mack will be
called by the prosecution on rebuttal
to repeat her confession accusing Thorn
OF the murder. District Attorney
Youncs did not want to pat Mrs. Mack
on the stand, because she made an un-
favorable impre ssion on the jury at the
first trial, as she related the details
of the horrible chine. If Mrs. Mack
is called again as witness for the
state, it will be because the district at
t0fneV is competed 10 take lnlS course
to offset the statement of Thorn when
he charges her with the killing.
Mr. Youngs says the reason he closed
the case for the state without calling
Mrs Mack as a witness, was because
in his opinion the people had presented
a case strong enough to convict Thorn
without the woman's confession. Dis
trict Attorney Olcott, of New York,
coEcurs with Mr.. Youngs in his opinion.
The usual stories were circulated to-
day that Mrs. Mack and Thorn were
about to break down, but Sheriff Don't
says the prisoners are unchanged, eX-
cept that they are both anxious to have
the trial over. When Thorn's fate has
been decided. Mrs. Nack's case will
come up. 1t is generally supposed that
she will be allowed to plead guilty
either to murder in the second degree
or manslaughter in the first degree. For
murder in the second degree she would
receive a sentence Of imprisonment for
life and for manslaughter in the first
degree the extreme penalty is twenty
Years.

L have submitted the idea are so much
impressed with its feasibility that this
much is certain-the road will be built.
When finished. it will be the greatest
bicycle roadway in the world, and L
claim that it will not only bring the
Yukon within the reach of all who

COMMON SENSE CURE.
PERMANENTLY By CURING
THE CAUSE.
Remarkable Remedy Which Is
Bringing Comfort to Thous-
sands Of Sufferers

Probably half the people who see this
article suffer from piles 1t is one of
the commonest diseases and one Of
the most obstinate. People have If
for years and just because it is not i'm
mediately fatal they neglect it. Care
lessness causes no end of suffering.
Carelessness about so simple a thing
as piles has often caused death. Hem
orrhages occur from no apparent
cause and loss of blood causes death.
Hemorrhages occur during surgical
treatment often causing death
Piles are simple in the beginning and
easily cured. They can be cured even
in the worst stages, without pain or
loss Of blood quickly, surely and com
pletely. There is only one remedy that
will do it-Pyramid Pile Cure
1t allays the Inflammation immedi-
ately, heals the irritated surface and
with continued treatment reduces the
swelling and puts the membranes into
good, sound healthy condition. The
cure is thorough and permanent.
Here are some voluntary and unso-
licited testimonials we have lately re-
ceived:
St, Indianapolis, Ind, says: Have
been a sufferer from the pain and an
noyance of piles for fifteen years, the
Pyramid Pile Cure and Pyramid Pills
gave me immediate relief and in
short time complete cure.
Mr. M. Griffin, proprietor of the Crit
fin House, Detroit, Mich. says: 1 have
been a sufferer from piles until three
years ago bought one box of the Ply
ranaid Pile Cure and since then I have
had no piles. I have recommended
them to many friends and guests at
my hotel, every one Of whom has been
cured.
The above is true as my experience
has proved it and 1 hope it may in
duce other sufferers to try the Pyra-
mid.

um was recently produced by Professor
Elmer Gates of Washington in an exceed
ingly simple manner He took a test
tube, which Is q tube Of glass closed at
one end, and which in this case was COM
posed of kind of glass that melts only at
very high temperature Into the tube
he poured molten glass of another kind,
which melts at a comparatively low tenn
perature. After the latter had cooled and
thus formed solid mass, completely filling
the tube, he attached suction pump to
tho open end of the tube and then applied
heat until the softer glass inside was again
melted. The next step was to withdraw
tho molten glass by means Of the pump,
enough being left to close completely the
end of the tube, when it was allowed once
more to cool. AS no air could enter the
space left vacant by the withdrawal of the
molten glass, a perfect vacuum Is believed
to have been produced there. Youths
