about thirty of the best citizens OF the
town contributed and purchased a steel
road machine which will do the work Of
from forty to sixty hands. With sandy
loan, upon clay subsoil, that naturally
makes the best roads in the world, it was
not easy to convince every one that
machine would save money and give bet
ter roads; but practical demonstration
of the workings of the machine has
proven beyond doubt, that such rs the
case The streets are being graded and
rounded up thoroughly, and as this is
completed, the macnIne will be sent to
the country, and every turnpike leading
into town will be put in best order, then
bicycling will be joy indeed.
This is a step forward that almost
any town in North Carolina can take,
and one that, taken, they will feel they
could not have afforded not to take.
Who will say that the fact that there
is a wheel in Laurinburg for every thirty
of it's total population does not, in a
measure, account for this progress in
road making? There are over hundred
wheels outside of town, within an hours
ride of this place.
The town has excellent ordinances gov
erning bicycling. They were drawn by
a wheelman, and have due regard for the
rights of pedestrians, forcing the wheel
man to surrender at all points where the
rights of those on foot conflict, in so far
as sidewalk privileges go; but, other
wise, full privilege of using sidewalks
is given at every place, except on those
thoroughfares where business houses
open directly ON the street. Bells are re-
quired at all times, and lanterns at night.
The town has put into practical opera
ton, in so far as it could, the motto or
the League of American Wheelmen:
"Wheelmen's Rights and Good Roads"
The wiheelmen are protected and the
roads will be perfected within the next
few weeks.

races has brought many of the most
noted riders of the country to the town.
The Columbia Athletic club of Wash
ington has contributed number Of
these among them the famous Schade
who was here in attendance ON the cycle
races.
The League Of American Wheelmen
has here number of members, We be-
lieve, the largest number in any town in
the State and this is greatly due to the
energetic administration of Mr.. j. M.
Heizer, the Local Consul Of the League
of American Wheelmen for this place.
Mr.. Heizer, whose picture we print is
one of the leading men in this State,
who are agitating the good roads move

for this point for some time past and
has work for that organization has caus-
ed many complimentary notices ON the
part of those who are interested in
wheeling in this section.
Among the Charlotte cyclists perhaps

This place enjoys many advantages. Its

in any other town in our borders and in
the entire South there is not a place
that will equal Charlotte as for the num-
Der of cyclists per capita. This is to be
expected when one considers what makes
the pleasure in cycling and what sort Of
place wheelman will seek to enjoy him
self. There are FIVE roads leading out OF
Charlotte that are unequalled in the en-
tire country as models OF beauty of con-
struction and the macadam is of the
very finest quality. These roads have
made Charlotte and Mecklenburg coun-
ty famous and have offered to the cycle
enthusiasts the best opportunities for
enjoyment.
The dealers in wheels in that city
are all hustling men and they have stock
ed the town with the best wheels to be
obtained. The town authorities in the
past have made rules and regulations
regarding wheeling in the city limits that
are just, both to the rider and the pedes-
trian and both classes recognize this.
The famous macadamized highawys
have been extended to the county limits
and for miles around the city the country
people as we'll as the townspeople have
high grade wheels and use them in pre-
ference to riding horseback to the city.
Cyclists from Charlotte may almost daily
be seen taking long trips through the
country and this feature of wheeling
has been one of the chief causes Of the
great success of the wheel trade in that
city. There is in Charlotte one of the
best tracks that can be afforded in the
South and here it is that the annual
races take place. These races have be-
come the more popular every year and

uas Mr.. James G.. Hollingsworth, of
Fayetteville. who now has the honor
and distinction of holding that impor-
tant position. He was elected last No
vember and the league has made rapid
strides under his guidance and wise man
agement. Mr.. Hollingsworth is a young
business man Of Fayetteville, Of great
energy and popularity, and has placed
his shoulder to the wheel as a good citi-

of wheelmen. He is an enthusiastic

North Carolina are his equal as an ex-

every energy and talent he has and the
division is growing in numbers and in
fuence very rapidly. We present his
picture in this issue and we are sure
our remarks will be borne out.
We also present the picture of Mr. h.
l.. Remsburg, secretary and treasurer
OF the North Carolina Division, who is
q dealer in marbles and monuments in
Fayetteville, and a man Of great enthu
siasm and solid sense and is working in
perfect harmony with the Chief Con-
sui, and his efforts are so sincere and
devoted as to leave their impress upon
the life of the league in North Caro-
Ina. He is a clever man and thorough
gentleman, and wherever he goes wins
friends.
He is also a rider of great ability
and may be seen any fine afternoon ON
some of the bicycle paths which lead out
from Fayetteville to the surrounding
towns and watering places.
Henry l.. Cook, Esq, Of Fayetteville,
is the States attorney for the league. To
many Of our readers in North Carolina
he is we'll and favorably known, as he is
a prominent lawyer and citizen of his
town.
Although immersed in the exacting
duties of a large and growing practice he
finds time to indulge in the delights Of
the wheel, and thoroughly enjoys the
recreation.
As attorney for the league he caused
to be introduced in the last General AS
sembly a bill known as the Bicycle
Baggage" bill, and appeared before. the
committee of the House and made
strong and forcible argument for its
favorable consideration.
The committee was so much impressed
by his argument that they reported the
bill without prejudice, but it died ON
the calendar as did about four hundred
other bills, many of them Of importance.
But the work of Mr.. Cook and the other
officials of the Division was not in vain,
for since the adjournment Of the Cen
eral Assembly the Seaboard Airline and
the G. f. and Y " railway have issued
orders requiring employees to take them
as baggage, and thus the wheelmen
throughout a large part Of the State are
enjoying the fruits of their well direct
ed efforts.

are such as to appeal to the wheelmen
personally and to his patriotism as a citi-
zen. The good roads feature is one

BICYCLING AT KINSTON.

AS a bicycle town Kinston is one of
the leading places in North Carolina.
There are already about $50 bicycles in
Kinston and the number is increasing

fancy riders in this town, but there are
many graceful riders. 1t is a pleasure
every evening to watch the long lines

The roads through the surrounding
country are fairly good, though there is
room for improvement. A number of
our cyclists go all over the country and
to the neighboring towns on their wheels
without any difficulty.
