A Trans
continental
Test.

The Crimson Rim was the
wheel which carried John H.
Wits from San Francisco to New
York in the shortest time on rec
ord. Wits set out on his Grim
son Rim from San Francisco May
Ia, and as he finished in New
York June "a, last, his record for
the distance was Al days, l hour
and As minutes, Up to that time
the best record for a transconti-
mental trip was 48 days. There
is but one Crimson Rim; it is the
Syracuse" From one end of his
rough journey to the other, Wits
never changed his mount. 1t car
ried him through the mountain
passes of the Sierras, across the
prairies of the West, over the
turnpikes of the East, without a
hitch. He paid no visits to the
repair shops. The most that he
had to do was to borrow a wrench
from friendly Sycamore in Chic
ago. One puncture, and one only,
delayed him for a short spell.
The Sycamore rider swears by his
wheel. Why should he not? Is
there another mount to match it?

A Successful Run in New York Las
Night.

A Successful Run i'm New York Last
Night.
From the New York Tribune, today.
few minutes after 10 O'Clock last night
the American Air Power Company started
two of its new cars over the lines of the
Third Avenue Railroad Company. The cars
were filled with city officials capitalists and
other prominent people. The trip was
made from West 18th street at the Fort
Lee Ferry, and thence down the Boulevard
to Broadway and on 42d street to the
Grand Central station. 1t was the frs,
time that the cars had been run over horse
car tracks, although several experimental
trips had been made over the tracks of
the oahle line i'll 12Jth street. The object
Of the trip last night was to demonstra- -e
that the cars could be run equally as we'll
and also go up and down steep hills and
around sharp curves with the best of them.
The trial trip proved a great success.
the trip was made in about forty min
utes and without hitch or accident. A
luncheon was served at the close of the
trip. The cars were charged with about
1000 pcCI dS of air pressure and ii was
sufficient to Last throughout the trip. They
can be charged to go sixteen miles, and
the charge of compressed air can be trans
mitted into them from the storage tanks
in less tf an a minute. The cars are easily
operated, Duch more easily than cable or
trolley cars, and they can be started or stop
ped without jostling the passengers from
their seats. Everybody who took the trip

able that the railroad company will adopt

BENEFITS FROM CHANGE OF AIR.
Invalids Are Often Helped by Removal
from Their Old Environments.

A very fayorite last resort OF the eigh.
teenth century physician was TO send
patient to visit the place of his birth
since it was thought that natal air
would be likely to prove peculiarly ben,
ciicial. This last theory, although
somewhat ludicrous when viewed from
our modern standpoint, strikes me az
being somewhat more than a mere
piece Of plausible empiricism. 1t shows
that, in spite of the terrible faith In
physic, the doctors in those days did not
lose sight of the Importance of con-
forming to natures program.
Although the beneficial effect of sea
voyages was to some extent recognized
it is easy to understand that the ships
OF the seventeenth and eighteenth cen
turtles, damp and stuffy below and pro.
yisioned with salt junk and hard bis
cults, scarcely gave a broken-down in
valid fair chance of deriving any great
amount of good from a change of aiI
taken under such conditions.
Generally speaking, we now consider
that sea and mountain mir owes its
virtue to its freedom from organic i'm
purities. Probably it is this quality
more than any other which gives it it's
reviving effect on those who have beer
living in the clogged and polluted at
mosphere of large towns. Yet purity
Of atmosphere is no preventive of those
very ailments which bring the majority
of patients to seaside watering places

valid who has thus sought relief were
to take careful note of the natives of
his fatorite health resort he would
probably be disquieted to find that pale,
sickly children and ailing adults were
by no means uncommon. Patients with
weak lungs are often sent to winter in
Devon and Cornwall although the NOR.
tality from pulmonary diseases among
the permanent residents of these
favored counties is not whit less than
among the jewellers in the midlanas
and the north. Yet the undoubted fact
remains to be accounted for that such
