A NEGRO MONSTER.
Cooper, the Outlaw. Adds Four Muir.
ders to His Record.

uefe 70 MS RECORD.
Mayesville, S. c., Jan. 1l.-Simon
Cooper, the negro outlaw who shot and
killed another negro and wounded sew
eral others at Magnolia few days ago,
and for whom there is reward of 500
offered by the governor. added more
murders to his record this morning,
near Magnolia. Cooper entered the
house Of Ben Wilson about sunrise, and
demanded the use of Wilson's buggy,
which was refused. The monster then
picked up an ak and split Wilson's
head open. He attacked Wesley Will
son, the son, and murdered him in a
like manner. Cooper then murdered
Mrs. Wesley Wilson with the same
weapon, after which he struck down
negro who had approached on hearing
the noise, and left the ak sticking in
the negro's head.
AS soon as the news Of the shocking
tragedy reached Sumter, the sheriff
organized posse Of men, chartered q
special car and came to Mayesville,
where reinforcements from this town
and the surrounding country awaited.
Word reached the sheriff here that
Cooper had been seen within two miles
of Sumter. The sheriff divided the
volunteers into several posses and sent
them in different directions, but Cooper
was not found.
The Wilson's were white people Of
high standing in their community.
Ben Wilson was about 80 years old, his
son 40 and Mrs. Wesley Wilson S6.
Two children have been left orphans.
Up to this hour the murderer has not
been captured, but it is almost impos-
sible for him to escape. If captured
his fate will be most terrible one.

be represented by succession of angles,
and at the height of the stroke it reaches
a point several inches above the position
of the knee in the second diagram.
This jerky and excessive knee action
alone would condemn the first method
as compared with the second were other
reasons lacking. The main fault, how
ever. is to be found in the position of the
foot and ankle, which is directly respon-
sible for the other fault noted. Here in
the first diagram we see that in all por-
lions of the stroke the foot occupies prac-
tically the same position relative to the
horizontal dotted lines, since planes pass
ing through the soles are parallel. The
only force for propulsion that can be ex-
erted is downward and islimited to posi-
tons from 1 to 5 inclusive, while the
stroke is really effective through 2 and
3, or only one-quarter the entire revolu-
ton of the pedal.
1t will also be noted that, as the leg is
further from straight line here than in
the corresponding positions in Fig. 2,
the thrust of the leg, even at its most eff
fective points, must be less powerful
than where the second style of riding has
been adopted.
AS most wheelmen have two legs, and
as the force for propulsion of each leg by
the fiat footed method is extended in

He Was Puzzled at First. but Soon Caught
On.

He Was Puzzled at First. but Soon Caught
There was a sudden grinding sound,
and it seemed as if the entire universe
had parted asunder with one immense
crash.
The man opened his eyes and looked
around him with dull, vacant stare,
not realizing the actualities of the
scene. Naturally all seemed strange.
Enormous waves Of sound swept wildly
about him and then dashed back to an
infinite distance, but only for a mo-
ment. They returned with fearful speed,
as if to engulf him for destruction for
ever and ever.
The roar of unearthly cannon doomed
in his ears. Crash. after crash, yolley
after volley, defamation and crepitation
succeeded one after the other with the
merest fraction of time for interval,
just long enough to accentuate each
new reverberation. Was eternity to be
one continuous rumble and rattle?
The man turned YEARLY and gazed
without any result for the time being
at his new alarm clock.
Then, suddenly grasping the fact
that it was half past 8, he jumped up
and started to dress. -New York Jour-
nal

some degree through one-half of the
revolution of the pedal, it is perfectly
possible for the rider to get along under
ordinary conditions without every ac-
quiring knowledge of scientific pedal
ing. On smooth, level surfaces the lack
of this accomplishment is not seriously
felt, but bring the rider up against hill
or head wind and at once he finds him
self heavily handicapped. The bicycle
loses the momentum impaired to it by
the effective part of one stroke position
2 and 81 before the opposite pedal can be
brought into position for the following
stroke. The rider strains every muscle
to overcome the dead points and exerts
force greatly in excess of that which is
actually required, and as result either
fails in his effort or is unnecessarily ex-
hausted.
Now turn to the second diagram and
note the great advantage the wheelmen
has when, instead of riding fiat footed,
he acquires a proper control of his ankle
action. Here by simply raising and low
ering the heel ''kicking" and s'cIaw-
ing" control of the pedal is obtained that
extends the stroke through nearly three
quarters the revolution of the crank.
This is tremendous increase of power
and effectually obviates dead centers.
The resultant motion of the knee is easy
and graceful, and readily falls in with
the curve suggestive of a wave line, as
indicated by the dotted line, while no.
where is the leg greatly bent or its most
effective muscular power sacrificed.
AS an actual matter of measurement
the knee rises and falls so per cent, less
with proper ankle motion than when one
is pedaling fiat footed.
In the second diagram the stroke may
be made effective from positions 1 to 6
inclusive, though as an actual matter of
fact few riders possess so great a scope.
AS the pedal begins to rise at the latter
part of the stroke positions and 81 the
heel is sharply dropped, so that it is
ready at for an effective forward kick.
Then follows simultaneous straighten-
ing of the ankle and knee joints that is
the essence of power in 3 and 4.
AT position 5 a backward "clawing"
motion begins, which helps to lengthen
the stroke, and which is continued
through 6. Finally at the heel is
quickly dropped to prepare for the fol-
lowing stroke.
The greatest power is of course avail
able in positions from l to inclusive,
and this is the part of the stroke that
tells most effectively in hill climbing.
With firm grasp on the handle bars,
which greatly increases the force of the
thrust, the full strength of the rider is
effectively expended for the propulsion
of the wheel, while dead points are OBJ
waited by the subsequent clawing action.
