THEY WALKED HOME.
TWO Excursionists to Milwaukee Cause a
Big Laugh when They Reach Home.

The boys over at the Schlitz are
having a good laugh at the expense Of
two of the boarders, Herman Trip
and John Price. These two gentle
men went to Racine with the excursion
Sunday, but when evening came on
the boys ,bethought themselves of the
boat. When they looked at their
watches and found the lateness of the
hour, they jumped to the conclusion
that the boat had gone as it was past
the time. They further consulted
their pocketbooks and decided that
the only way left for them to reach
home was to walk. Accordingly they
put the idea into execution, and started
afoot for Kenosha. They reached here
at 1l:30 p. m. and were very much
gratifed to learn that the boat had not
yet arrived, not having left the Belle
City until IL o'clock.

CHAINLEss WHEELS NEXT.
Big Manufacturers Preparing to Place
Them on the Market

1uSm Oh Tie market.
The recent reduction in the price of
wheels, coupled with the announce
ment that next year there would be q
| chainless wheel on the market at the
old price of 800, is regarded as an in
dication that next year there will be
very many chainless wheels on the
market. The Pope company and
Spalding have openly declared their
intention of making feature of the
chainless wheel, with the chain wheel
at reduced price. This will doubt
less force others of the big makers to
present chainless wheel.
From information cleaned from
various sources it appears very proba-
BILE that the year 1898 will see chain
less mounts on sale at nearly every
cycle salesroom. It has been stated
that one of the largest makers has
bought all the patents possible (about
seventy in relation to chainless
wheels, and will manufacture them as
his leader for the year, with chained
wheel at a reduced price If the re-
port is true it is certain that all the
other big makers will prepare some
kind of chainless wheel for the mar
ket.
The first chainless wheel made it's
appearance in this country about five
years ago, but was rather crude in con-
struction and did not meet with sue
cess. 1t was made on the bevel gear
style and, although improvements were
made on it each succeeding year, there
appeared some difficulty about making
a model with a tread narrow enough to
suit the riding public.
Since that time inventors have de-
voted their time to perfecting it, but
with uncertain success. A number of
models were seen at the cycle shows
early this year, but with few exceptions
they could not be termed perfect; either
because of too much friction in the me-
chanism or the width of the tread,
which failed to strike the fancy of the
average rider. By next year it is ex-
pected that it will be nothing out of
the ordinary to see chainless bicycles
on every road in the country.

it is at present thing to keep away

Hayes received q fall in consequence
of which he is today combining himself

Remedy speedily cured him.-WIL-

load.
Dr. j. l. Terry, of Trimble, Tenn. in

nized as a necessity wherever its great
worth and merit lbecome known. No

or so pleasant to take. Sold by Stark

The Electric Road Is Being Built From
This End Now.
Mathew Slush, of Racine, while in
the city today said to representative
of this paper that the Milwaukee, Ra-
cine & Kenosha Electric Railway COM
pany were soon to begin work on this
end of the line and build toward Racine.
A cargo of pole and ties arrived in this
port this morning and will be hauled
to the seat of operations as and when
needed. There is still about mile of
grading to be done before reaching the
city limits which will in all probability
be finished within six or eight days.
The Pike river bridge will be complet-
ed, according to Mr.. Slush's prediction,
by August TO- when they will begin
laying the ties and iron. The abut-
ments Of the bridge are first class
masonry and composed OF heavy, fiat
stone. The Orders are OF the heavy
iron used on steam railroad cOnstruc-
tions and are guaranteed to support
$4,000 tons. The culverts are as high
as seven feet in width, one near
Racine being seven feet in d.
ameter and about eighty feet
long. Mr.. Slush says there is no prob
ability that the tracks will not be laid
by the time announced some weeks

1t Attempts to obscure the Sun for An
Hour or So.
Hundreds of Kenoshans procured
smoked glasses between z and 10
o'clock this morning and witnessed an
annular eclipse of the sun, From
street corners and office windows
amateur astronomers watched the sun
and moon play tag.
Old Sol maintained an apparent
crescent shape but two hours and
fourteen minutes, and then the moon
Withdrawing from before his face,
closed the first exactly similar enter
tainment in KenOsha since July, 1879.
At 1884 o'clock the moon could first
be seen covering portion of the south
or right hand side of the suns disc.
Gradually increasing in prominence
and size, it moved over toward the
suns center until at Sal o'clock there
was only three-fourths of the suns
surface available to furnish light and
heat for the region around KenOsha.
At that time the shadow commenced
to recede and at 9:48 O'Clock the sun
was once more his old self
The eclipse was called annular by
the students of the solar system, be-
cause, they explained, the moon was at
such relative distance from the sun
that it was not large enough to obscure
the entire surface
The relative positions of the heaven
Iy bodies were the same this morning
as they we're July 10, 1879, and much
the same phenomena was observed.
These two are the nearest Kenosha has
ever come to observing total eclipse.
There have already been two solar
eclipses seen from the region around
here this year, but they were not as in
teresting as today's from a scientific
point of view.
The steamer Queen of the Lakes is

ceeding large, consisting of about half
a dozen persons from the Belle city and
several KenoshaDs who had missed
their trains or were the victims of BIZ

New Slang In Chicago.

crank, stepped up to Captain Anson and
told him how to win the championship.

We NHBD THHM.

The interest which 10 being manifested
In this locality In technical education ID
most praiseworthy. These textile and
manual training schools are more needed
In this State than In any other In the
country. They should receive universal
encouragement and should not be left In
the hands of any body outside OF the State
or city. Because II they come into being
under the special auspices OF any certain
class, no matter how good, they will be
viewed askance by those who are preju-
diced or uninformed.
Such schools are those which have made
the mechanics, the weavers, the civil engi-
neers and the chemists of Central Europe
the foremost In the world. They will
reach the class that is most In need ofsuch
training, and that Is the children OF the
laboring man. The child at school will
grow up with perfect. knowledge of some
kind of trade, some knowledge OF SCI
ence, an art or profession.
As It is now our children go through
school, and when they get through, II at
any age at all, they find 1t hard to go to
work at manual labor. But II they are
taught from childhood In work OF the
hands they will soon develop some trait
for some trade, and they will follow that
in after life.
Now they all want to get some easy job
which does not require skill, because they
have no skill and cannot do anything bet
ter. New England has been wofully lack
ing In this regard, and the present genera
tion of New England boys sees the best
places filed with men who have learned
their business In other countries and who
come here and AL the places that the boys
Of our villages and towns should be able
to occupy.

Iron In the System.

1t Is often said that there is iron enough
In the system OF an ordinary man to make
q plowsharc. The statement Is exceedingly
wide OF the truth. The amount Of iron
contained In tho animal tissues of man
weighing 100 pounds Is about 100 grains,
or quarter Of an ounce. Yet so important
is even this small amount TO the system
that difference Of few grains more or
less may produce serious constitutional
