the circumstances the result was remarkable,
as at times Harvard was clearly outplay9d
by the West Pointers, and only succeeded
in gaining her distance through good work
by Dibblee, and remarkable running and
good defensive work on her territory. dar-

CARE OF HER WHEEL.
New York woman Writes Hints to
Her Sisters.
A New York woman cvcIist

A New York woman cyclist has the follow
ing word of advice to her sister riders:
mo one should ride without a brake.
have Investigated the cause of a great many
accidents, and l have found that most of
them could have been prevented by the use
of a brake.
Every woman should take care of her own
wheel. It is not fair where there are two or
three wheels in a family TO make one person
care for them all, is sometimes done. A
woman will appreciate the value of her wheel
more if she takes care of it herself. The
chain should be taken off once in three Weeks
or a month and soaked in kerosene. wiped
and hung UP 10 dry, and then replaced on the
wheel. Put a drop of oil in the top of each
link, let it stand until it has soaked in, and
then wipe the chain, as the oil will collect
dust. The sprockets must be kept clean,
wiped off with kerosene. It is necessary to
be careful not to get the kerosene on the
should be used, and any good lUbricating oil
The chain cracks when it is dry, but dirty
chain should never be oiled. A dirty chain
is likely to stretch. The chain should not be
too loose or too tight. One need of a brake
is in case OF aeCideE6 to the chain. Accidents
will happen occasionally, and if the chain
snaps without brake the rider is helpless,
cleaned after each ride, and a brush which
will not lose its bristles is useful. With the
gear case cleaning is a simple matter, and l
would recommend a short skirt and no chain
guard in any case.
Il should not recommend a wheel too high
geared for woman. That must be regulated
by individual strength. Few experienced
riders will find a gear higher than seventy
of advantage and siXty-siX is good for the
average rider. The greater number OF women
will find the six and half-inch crank salts

PEDESTRIANS MUST LOOK.

1t has been held in court in this country
t1at pedestrians must exercise as much care
when crossing streets in endeavoring to avoid
bicycles as they would in endeavoring to
avoid vehicles drawn by horses. 1t is negn-
gence to step off the pavement in street
without looking to the right and to the left,
to see if the road is clear. The safety OF the
cyclist does not count for much with the ma
jority of non-riders and the knowledge that
the wheel is not capable of inficting such

The day was waning, but it had been
well spent. The editor then entered
an open coupe, and was driven out over
the hills of northwest Washington to
the soldiers home; that comfortable
retreat where the veterans who are

and of their soldier records. .,
After driving all over the vast acreage
within the soldiers home walls, the
driver refined his horses and called at

is five miles away, can be seen through
the trees, for there is an opening di-
rectly through the trees which looks
as though it had been purposely hewn;

it is SO. ~ .ls.. 49,. .~s..-.,s>,s >.

LOCAL GATHERINGS.
rlr, Stafford In BrookIyn.-Wende

rlr. Stafford In Brooklyn.-Wendell
p. Stafford delivered bis address before
the Long Island Historical society in
Brooklyn last week. Brooklyn sub
scriber of the CALIFORNIAN writes us that
the st. Johnsbury people who were pres
cnt were proud of the home representa-
five and that the large audience listened
most attentively and applauded enthusi-
asticaly. In the audience were two
qrand-neices Of Wendell Phillips, and
many OF Mr.. Stafford's hearers had heard
The great orator. The Brooklyn Eagle
gives the following report OF the address:
Mr.. Stafford is an easy speaker, with a
very pleasant voice and spoke without
notes of any kind. The speaker began
by referring to his acquaintance with the
man Tor whom he was named, and his
personal knowledge OF his kindness, his
broad mind and his great sympathetic
nature. He spoke of Phillips great
speech in the Old South meeting house,
when he pleaded for the retention of the
building, and of his lasting regret that he
did not hear that effort. He said that
this speech probably best sho wed Phillips
as he was. Mr.. Stafford then spoke OF
historic Boston as an influence that made
the man what he was and said that he
represented the spirit OF '76, brought for
ward to his own time. He was Boston
through and through, ingreat things and
in trihes, and his intense love for Boston
cropped out in all his speeches.
The speaker then described Phillips
wonderful speech in Faneuil Hall deliv-
cred after the murder OF Lovejoy, when
he answered the attorney general of the
commonwealth, who had defended the
murderers and cut his ground from under
him. This speech" said Mr.. Stafford,
drought Wendell Phillips forward"
From 1910 to 1850 we have no record
of any speeches. 1t was period OF prep
aration. He met all kinds OF people
talked with them, listened to them and
prepared himself tor the struggle to come
MIR. Stafford then described the work
which the anti-slavery people had cut out
for their own. They were assaillng a
system which was intrenched in the con
sltution, in church, state, school, so
ciety. They rested their hope on the
conscience OF the masses"
From this point on Mr.. Stafford de
scribed the course Of the anti-slavery
movement. He told of the toll, the strug
gle, the practical ostracism which con
tronted Phillips and his co-workers, thu
jeering crowds in Boston and Throughout
the country. He closed with vivid de
scription of the last time he saw the grea
orator and clear thinker. An old man
he was climbing the steps to the stat
house in Boston. AS he gained the toI
he turned to gaze at the city he had con
quered. "There let us leave him." salt
the speaker.
Mr.. Stafford has remarkably goo'
memory and his address was iull OF ex
tracts. long and short, from Phillips
speeches. At the close of the addres
many of the audience went forward t.
shake hands with Mr.. Stafford and t.
thank him Tor his instruction.
