Birmingham is @ great bicycle towni In fact, it IS far ahead of any o.her city of its size in the south.
 It is estimated that over 5000 wheels are in use in this city, which is easily ac- counted for. The streets are level ami besides she macadamized roads, which reach out for miles in the surrounding country, are perhaps the best public bikes in the southt The kicks" that are constantly being heard from all sections of dhe country for good roads find TO 'footlhold' in Birmingham, except per- haps lhe periodical kicks against filling worn places in the streets with slag by the city authorities. This is a kick in the right direction, and this method of re- pairing streets shouId be stopped.
 The annual Thanksgiving road race, which has heretofore been run over the Eight avenue loop, will probably not be held thfs year.
 The malutar has been thoroughly con- eiddiad by lhe cyclists of the city, and 1t hsr7 been decided to have five track naees at East Lake instead.
 The track around the lake, which is just ore mile, will be put in first-ciass condition.
 It will be an excellent place for the races and will no doubt attract a large crowd.
 The following races. have been ar ranged:
 Quahteh mile, open.
 Half mile, hariilcap.
 One mile, open.
 One mile, handicap. S
 Five mikes handicap.
 The races wifi be for vamable prizes. which will be announced this week.
 Among the riders who will participate te tlle following have already entered:
 Joe Riddle Ped Hickman, Jack Coop
The age-herald., 1897-11-14

Rube Di1lon Nick Hickman, Jack coop CT. S. Harville, Howad'1 Harrts, Houston Harris, Bob Trexville, and other local men.
 Some fast men are among the entries and fine sport can be expected.
 RuIbe Dillon, ''the big plumber" is one of the strongest and most nervy naders in the south. Then there is Ped Hiek- man, who can ride faSs and in pretty style Little Jack Cooper and young Joe Riddle are two crack-a-jaclNs who ride exceedingly well. And there are others.
 The bicycle business is net like the grocery bustnses. It was formerly pet ter. now 1t is not as good. The reason IS i.Iats: groceries maintain one price, that is, if one article happens to go down another will go up, thereby keeping the profits at an average.
 It is not so with bicycles; they have been falling in price ever since they were first made, and as a rule the qual- Hty gets better every year.
 Eddy Bald leads the national circuit riders in percentage. Not being satisfied with the outdoor championship, he has about taken the indoor champion ship from Jay Eaton. His percentage is 1882.
 A well known loca1 bicyclist was in Atlanta last Monday, and says he saw Jimmy Michael, the Welsh "rarebit," ride twenty miles against time. He says Jimmie kill;d out five tandem teams and then quit fresh.
 Most of the bicycle dealers of this city maintain repair shops. These shops are equipped with modern machinery and the very best work Is turned out. In Chattanooga. Montgomery and several other cities all difficult work has to be sent to the factory" to be done. Louis vile, Nashville and Atlanta have good repair shops, but not better than Bir- ntngham.
 The Victor people are getting out wheel which they will call the "Anti- Chainless.' The chain and gearing will be protected from dirt, etc., by a casing, winch, it is claimed, will entirely obv.ate the necessity of a chainless bike.

WICKED AND BRUTAL GAME.
Chicago Alderman Will Introduce an Or

Chicago Alderman Will Introduce an Or
dinance to Abolish 1t.
CHICAGO, Nov. 10-Alderman Plotke,
author OF the theater hat ordinance
will introduce at special meeting OF
the city council a measure to prohibit
the playing of football anywhere within
the limits of the city of Chicago.
1t is thought likely many of the alder
men may take the ordinance seriously
and possibly pass it. This would cause
CONSERVATION among lovers Of football.
for it would put bar to the big game
next Saturday between the Chicago and
Wisconsin university teams and to the
other big game scheduled for Thanks
givin = day between the Chicago and
Michigan university teams.
In speaking of his anti-football or
dinance Alderman Plotke said: "Why
do introduce it? Because it is an in
human game-a game that should have
been stopped long ago. Somebody gets
hurt badly every time football game
is played and many have been killed.
1t is 40 times worse than prize fighting.
It teaches school children to be brutal.
Every little boy in the city gets out on
a vacant lot and fights and swears just
like the older boys do playing football
The game should not be tolerated in

LESS IMMUNITY
Iowa Business and Professional
Men Object to Present
Exemptions.
Difficult to COllectt Debts From
Heads of Families in That
State.
Prominent MankatO Capitalist
Forced to Make an As
signment.

DEs MONIES, Ia, Nov. 10. An associ-
alton composed of business and pro-
fessional men all over the state has
been working quietly for several weeks
securing the signatures 90 the articles
of membership with view of present
ing monster petition at the general
assembly for a change of the exemption
laws relating to married men so that
bills may be collectible irrespective OF
the fact that they are heads of families.
Grocerymen, butchers, bakers and
others in mercantile pursuits, as well as
professional men Of all classes, are en-
gagged in the project. The present in
dications are that before the general
assembly convenes the association will
reach into thousands. Money is to be
raised to maintain lobby at the state
capital during the session to urge the
passage of the bill. Under section 4011
of the code the earnings of debtor
who is resident of the state and head
of family for his personal services or
those of his family at any time within
80 days next preceding levy are exempt
from liability for debt. This is believed
by the members Of the new association
to work great injustice in many cases,
while pro tecting comparatively few.

A GREAT UPROAR
Philadelphia Aldermen Kissed on
Account of a Franchise
Deal.
Gave Away What They Had Been
Offered Ten Million Dol
lars For.
The Only Thing Which Can Pre-
vent the Steal Is the May
or's Veto.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov TO- - Amid
cheers, cat calls and Kisses, which the
police vainly endeavored to prevent, the
common council of the city Of Philadel-
phia voted away the most valuable
property now owned by the city,
namely, the gas works, worth at least
$40, 900, 900.
The members who opposed the deal
spoke bitterly against the proposed leg
islation The members favoring what
is called the ''grab" said nothing.
Finally their leader, Mr.. Van Often,
arose and moved the previous question.
At that time the galleries were filled
with citizens. The question being or
dered, the roll was called and the vote
stood 78 to SO to give away for 80 years
this immense property. A scene OF
great confusion followed. ''Shame,
some one in the gallery shouted, and
there came in moment such storm
Of Kisses as has never been heard IN the
council chamber of Philadelphia before.
In vain President Hartman pounded
his gavel on the desk in an attempt to
secure order. He finally called upon
the police and a dozen or more officers
ran into the galleries but no sooner was
one man elected than others took up
the cry. 1t was over half an hour be-
fore the galleries could be cleared.
Ten Million Difference in Bids.
Early in the session communication
was read from what is known as the
Baker syndicate, which has bid for the
gas works. This syndicate, composed
of reputable and responsible men, for
mally offered to take the lease of the
works on the same terms as the pro-
posed ordinance gives them to the
United Gas Improvement company,
and in addition to pay down lmme-
diately 1000, 900 in cash and 100000
annually for 80 years, thus giving the
city $l0,0O0,000 for the lease. The
United Gas Improvement company,
which was voted the control proposes
to pay the city nothing, but instead in
sists that it shall charge the private
consumer 81 per thousand feet for gas
for the next 80 years.
The only thing to prevent the deal
going through is the mayors veto Be
fore election he promised to prevent any
such measure going through.
