NEW BIKE ORGANIZATION.

Minneapolis, Mimi, March S.-Min-
nesOta bicycle riders are talking of
seeding from the l.. A. w. and, in
connection with the states of North
and South Dakota forming an indepen-
dent league for the control of bicycle
racing in the northwest. Circular let
terS have been sent to every wheel
man of note in the section interested
in the proposed movement and the re-
SpOnses indicate that the sentiment is
in favor of throwing off the league
which controls generally among the
racing contingent. The men who are
at the head of the movement are all
members of the league and are prom
inent in racing circles in the north
west. The plan proposed cOntemplates
the formation of league similar to
the L. A. w. and which will work
along the same lines as this organi-
zatiOn. The principal difference be-
tween the two sections will be the new
league admits professionals on the
same terms as amateurs and will al
so issue sanctions for Sunday races
whenever desired. The lines between
the amateurs and professionals will
be drawn as closely in the new league
as in the old one and care will be ia
ken to keep the sport as clean as It
has ever been under the League or
American Wheelmen control.

r s MINISTER INSULTED.

New York, March S.-The Herald's
correspondent in Guatemala sends
word that a well known politician and
duellist offered an unprovOked affront
to the United States minister, Mr..
McGrane Cox, at the opera.
The Guatemala government prompt
ly took the matter up and investigated
it. Witnesses furnished statements
against the offender and leading
American residents here petitioned
Minister Cox to insist upon reperatiOn.
The government then addressed
note to Minister Cox expressing deep
regret and deplOring in the highest
degree the lamentable incident as well
as entertaining the prOfoundest convic-
ton that the minister was not in the
slightest responsible. Criminal pro-
ceedings have been ordered against

Chicago. March S.-St. Gauden's
equestrian Of Gen. John y. Logan in

New York and in few days the
South Park commissioners will begin

who was Senator LOgan's colleague in
the Senate, will be two of those who

WITH THE FIGHTERS.
NEITHER DID MUCH WORK AT
TRAINING TODAY.
Oorbett Says fitSsimmons Will Have to Do
More Than Dream When He
Gets Into the Ring.

Carson, New, March S.-There seems
now TO be a prospect Of better wealth
er than Carson has seen during the
last week and the snow is going rap
idly. There will be no chance of road
work for either Fitzsimmons or Cor
bett, although the former has declared
that no matter how much mud and
snow may cover the roads he will not
forego his daily exercise out of doors.
This is not the wiSeSt thing in the
world for FitZsimmons to do, as he has
not yet entirely recovered from the
cold that has troubled him for so long
and slushing along through the wet
snow and mud will in no way tend to
relieve his trouble, He came into town
as usual this morning in company with
Dan Hickey and after remaining
short time took the homeward track,
going at a lively pace. He was COM
PEELED to remove all of his foot wear
at once upon his return as both shoes
and stockings were decidedly damp.
He took but little exercise this morn
ing reserving his energies for hard
worak during the afternoon.
Corbett spent the morning putting in
most of the time walking about the
place playing with his dogs and writ
ing letters. Late in the forenoon he
put in little time at handball, but
played easily without any effort to
make the work hard or fast. A good
rundown and massage finished off the
work before lunch. Jim was much
amused and a little disguised over the
fact that Fitzsimmons had for the
third time licked him in a dream.
HE is great on dreams" said Cor
bett, but that is the only way he
can ever lick me, that is sure; let him
dream all he likes but he wants to do
something besides dream when he
gets into the ring"

URUGUAN REVOLUTION.
IN MAGNITUDE AND BE-
GINNING TO LOOK SERIOUS.
Battles Have Occurred In Which the FEEDER
al Troops Were Driven off the
Field With Heavy Loss.

New York, March S.-The cores
pendent of the Herald in Montevideo,
Uruguay, telegraphs that the authori-
ties of many towns in the republic
have openly given their adherence to
the insurgent standard offering aid in
men and arms. This adds greatly to
the strength of the revolution and in
creases the seriousness of the Situa-
ton. The government at Montevideo
has dispatched to the interior a vast
quantity of arms and the mobilization
of the full strength of the colonial
guard is taking place.
The government is the more earnest
at the increasing force in the field as
it is known that an engagement has
occurred in the interior in which the
Federal troops were defeated. Many
wounded soldiers have already arriv-
ed in MontevideO, but the officials will
not give any information.
1t is stated, however, that the bat
tie occurred in San Jose on the
southern coast and was very severe.
1t is officially announced that an en-
in Tacuarembo. The government
forces are said to have been defeated
there also. The revOlutionists are
now known to have nearly 5000 men
under arms. The government has
about 5000 troops already in the field
and these can be reinforced at any
moment by 1000 Federal police as
well as citizens subject to military
duty who are being rapidly mobiliz-
ed. 1t is, however. true that the most
of those who would be called upon to
serve in the ranks Of the national
guards are feeling to neighbOring
countries.
The minister of war has started for
the interior with a large force of az
tillery.
One group of the Red party, which
formerly opposed the government, will
issue manifesto declaring that the
members will support the administra-
ton and will take arms against the
insurgents. Their action is declared to
be not so much the result of patriot
ism as of bitter hatred toward the
White party.
The Argentine naval authorities
have despatched three vessels of war
to the coast of Uruguay, having been
ordered by the government to prevent
filibustering from Argentine.
The Herald's correspondent in Rio
de Janeiro. Brazil. telegraphs that
severe battle has taken place in Bahia
between Federal troops and fanatics.
The Brazilian forces was disaStrously
defeated.
The vanguard have been annihi-
lated.

Down in Columbia Presidential Prob
abilities Are Raising Cain.
New York, March S--A special to the
Herald from Panama, Columbia, says:
The electioneering contest for the
presidency of the republic for the
next constitutional term-frOm 1898
TO 1904-is now fairly on.
General Reyes, who is now Column
bian minister to Europe, with a resi-
dence in Paris, was in September last,
nominated through Congress then in
session, as a national, or government
candidate for the presidency.
The adherentS of President Caro-
have named him as a candidate of the
National party in opposition to Reyes.
Should Caro- accept, ii will surely
cause breach in the National party
with attendant Ominous results.
Your correspondent addressed a tel
egram to DR.. Antonio Molina, minis
ter of war, asking him to state if the
manifesto as issued by Caro's adher
ents. was in obedience to CarO's wish
es. He replied automatically, that
Caro- has not yet spoken in regard to
his candidacy nor had he been queS-
toned in regard to the matter.
The popular opinion is that Caro- is
planning a coup d'etat with the object
in keeping himself is power for term
of six years more as NuneZ did before
him and as porfirio Diaz has done in
Mexico. This would cause a rupture.
Caro- would have the power in his
hands. the national forces being I'M
der his command, but Reyes with the
exception of some Independent Lib
erals. has a strong popular following.
A significant fact is that President
Caro- is changing all the military
chiefs of the principal cities who sup
port Reyes. substituting for them his
own adherents.
The objection of the Independent
Liberals to Reyes is that he has been
offered and has accepted the support
of the Velistas, who are ultra con-
servatives.

From 80, 600, 900 to OO, 900, 900 men,

for health worship and sanitary insight,
followed the plan of postponing the
principal meal until the end of the day
for more than Thousand years. From
800 B. @. to the third century of our
chronological era the one meal system
prevailed all over Europe and the Hell
lenized portions Of western Asia, and
that one meal was eaten at the end of
the working day, and after the baths
and outdoor sports that assembled pleas
ure seekers in the cool of the evening.
Like the dinners of Frederick the Great.
these symposia were something more
than mass meeting lunches; the guests
took their time, spiced their food with
anecdotes, masticated at leisure and
sometimes-too often in the luxurious
era of the Roman empire-yielded to
the temptation Of dietetic excuses, but
on rising from the banquet went straight
to their dormitories and could sleep as
