GOLF AND WHEELING.
(Ladies' Home Journal. }

A person feels very much out of
place these days in a party of young
people unless they know something
about golf and bicycling. These two
pleasures have in measure taken the
place of dancing. After ride of TWEEN
ty miles on wheel, or walk over the
golf links several times, no man or
woman feels much like dancing. Golf
is absorbing the attention of Ameri-
can women more and more, as they
begin to realize the pleasure as well
as the benefits of the game. A little
rain need not stop the enthusiast, for
a woman who is properly dressed may
be Indifferent to the wet. She should
have thick boots with rubber soles, a
tweed dress skirt with a long. loose
jacket, and cap of the same. In this
costume she need have no fear of the
light rain, but may enjoy the soft
feeling of it on her face and at the
same time have her complexion ben
Gifted by the rain water.

SIDE Of THE 5 A. PEOPEE
WAR CRY COMMENTS ON ARRESTS
MADE IN HONOLULU.
Vigorous Presentation of the Army's
Position and Work-A Christian In
fuence-Use of Moral Suasion.
(War Cry, San Francisco.)

The officers of the Honolulu Saliva
ton Army corps have been arrested
twice, and tried and acquitted twice
within two months. They were
charged by over-zealous policemen
with the crime, or something equiv
alent to crime, of obstructing the
streets of that city as common nuis-
ance. Salvationists are not criminals
and should not be treated as such;
neither should their arduous efforts to
reach with Christian influence the out
casts of the street, be considered a
misdemeanor, even when their labors
work temporary Inconvenience to
passersby. Policemen arrest evil doors
for murder, theft, arson, drunkenness.
etc If found guilty the aforesaid evil
doors are sentenced to Imprisonment,
with the object in view of furnishing
them for the crime committed, and
forcing them to cease from evil. Sal
vationists are endeavoring by moral
suasion to win criminals and the UNI
righteous of every grade to Christ
that they may be changed by His
transforming power. In Gods hand
the Salvation Army has been instru-
mental in turning hundreds of thou
sands of wife beaters into loving hus'
bands, drunkards into sober men
thieves to lives of honesty, harlots to
chastity, etc. The sick and prisoners
are visited, fhe naked clothed, the hun
CRY fed and the worthless found en-
ployment to the extent of the Army's
ability. The Army is recognized unr
versally in civilized countries as al
aid to good government Its influence
is always on the side of peace am
Righteousness, and hence to class Sal
vationists as common nuisance is {
misinterpretation of the law, and tC
arrest them is an outrage on justice
Knowing the high character of thu
leading people of the islands, we ar;
sure that they do not countenance tht
arrest of Salvationists. They have
ever been ready in the past tc
strengthen the hands of our comrades
and we are confident of their cor.
tinued friendship in the future. Capt
Zimmers and Lieut.. Monroe wer,
tried before District Judge De ::
Vergne Messrs w. r. Castle and ]
Q. Wood were retained for the lie
Tense, and were successful in securing
the discharge of the Army people.

THE CLEVELAND.
The following extract
from 1.-THE Cycling
West " of Dec. 10th,
1896, explains itself:

"The popularity of the Cleveland bicycle
is ever on the increase and every day
sees some crack racing man dispose of
his old mount in order to become mount
ed upon the speedy Cleveland. More
races have been won upon Clevelands in
recent meets than upon all the other
makes put together. Among the Cleve-
land riders who have ridden their
popular mount to victory are the follow
ing: Champion Terrill, Chas Wells,
Harry Terrill, Whitman, Mott, Crafts,
Vincent, Russ, Williamson, the Noonan
Brothers, and many more too numerous
to mention"
