Thrilling and Remarkable Experience
of Denver Wheelman.

Thrilling and Remarkable Experience
of a Denver Wheelman.
Louis Riethmann, Denver bicyclist,
is daily receiving letters asking him
what make wheel he rides. The present
unwonted accession to his daily mail
comes as the result of thrilling ex-
perience he had while out riding with
his friend Louis Philbeck, visitor
from Indianapolis. The two took spin
along beyond Sand Greek in the after
noon, and about O'Clock started on
the return journey. On nearing the
Union Pacific, Denver and Gulf tracks
they heard the rumble of an approach
ing train. Philbeck, who was in the
lead, saw that there was not time to-
safely cross the railroad and stepped
off, at the same time giving warning
to his friend. The latter did not fully
understand, and throwing all his leg
power into action made a dash. The
train was coming thirty miles an hour
and caught Reithmann just as he was
ON the center Of the track. The engineer
saw the inevitable smash coming, but
was unable to slow up until he had
passed the spot several hundred feet.
Then he, the train crew, the passengers
and Philbeck began looking under the
cars for the mangled remains of Rieth-
mann. None thought to look on the
cowcatcher until a wavering cry from
that point attracted their attention.
There they found the supposed victim

of the engine and the other hanging Oh

There is in Chicago scheme to pro
vide work-rooms for men out Of en-
ployment. No money will be given
them, but they will be paid in clothing
or whatever else they may need of the
articles made in the work-rooms. Old
clothes will be mended and old shoes
made more serviceable by cObbling.
AS soon as the workmen can get
places where they will be paid they
will 60 to them. The idea is European,
and, properly carried out, is likely to
result in much good.
