There are many new things in the
bicycle line offered for 1897. Every
up.to-date manufacturer will intro
duce new attachments and alleged i'm
provements in the details of his ma
chine, while the freak inventor has
been more than busy with his strange
and wondrous devices. In the great
mass of inventions there are some few
things of real value. The construction
OF bicycles to order is yet in its in
fancy, but 1t is growing industry,
and thousands of devices which will
never become general will be utilized
by individuals. The most radical de-
parture in 1897 will be an increase in
the dimensions of pneumatic tires.
The average tires are now from one
and half to one and three-quarters
inches wide. Tires in 1897 will reach
a width of two and half inches.
Wheels thus equipped will look awk-
ward at first, but the safety itself was
ungainly in its 6ay, when contrasted
with the high wheel. The wide tire
is safer than those now in use. Tt re-
duces the likelihood of side slips on
damp roads, which is really the cause
of four out of FIVE cycling accidents.

begin to prepare for dress parade.
The men have to Jump into their full
dress clothes for this evening parade
and look their best. The inspiration
of the bands music as they march IN

to their shoulders and dragoonish
swing to their movements. American
soldiers are good to look upon. They
must be perfect men physically to get
into the service at all, and as recruits
they are given much athletic training.
During the autumn and winter, first
call for retreat is sounded during the

for retreat goes at the conclusion of
the march in review. Then the men

by the distinguished marksmen" OF
the infantry.
The heavy artilleryman has to mas
ter more different kinds of drill than
the soldiers of any other arm OF the
service. Besides the drill on the big
guns he must be quite as proficient in
infantry tactics as the "doughboy."
He carries the same rifle and is re-
quired to learn the same eyolutions as
the infantryman, in order to prepare
himself for field and riot service at
any time. There is any amount OF
battery and battalion drill in infantry
movements at the barracks. Then there
are certain days set aside for drilling
in the hated mechanical mans1vers,
which consists in the mounting and
d1smouuting the heavy old guns by
means of hydr .ulic jacks, "gins, gar.

The light battery at the barracks,
