was 6 complete loss of appetite for davs
while In others there appeared an increased

il was supposed the Spanish would make

Gen. Lawton told Col. Harries that he was
holding the most dangerous point OF the

LaWtOn was amazed when he found that
the District regiment was armed with

There is revived talk of a union pas

Fe and d. & r. G., with location at the
San Francisco street crossing. This
would be q great convenience to both
the railway companies, it is stated, as

ever, the nov depends largely upon the
attitude Of property owners. IF there is
a disposition to squeeze the railway
companies, the proposed improvements
will be indefinitely postponed, and the
long transfers will continue to be made
between the two depots as heretofore.
A local railroad man says In this con-
nection, that the main line of the Santa
Fe would have run directly to this city
from Glorieta. and then south to Albu-
Querque but for the attempt on the part
of some property owners to make the
railroad company sweat, and as the re-
suit, the road was built via Lamy. How
ever, an old timer says hat while the
route via Santa Fe would have undoubt-
eddy proven the best and cheapest in
the end, the railway company was also

NEW USES TO WHICH THE WHEEL

Mechanical Progress in Cycle Build
ing-Proper Knee Action in Riding
Air Resistance in Cycling.

One of the newest uses of the bicy
Gle is as a surveying machine, not
merely "A machine to carry surveyor
from point to point, but as a machine
which performs in itself the mechani-
cal part of the surveyors work, says
New York paper. The United States
army is considering the ACCESSIBILITY
of adopting this machine as an adj
junct to tactics. BY means of an at
tachment, the exact Typographical

certained, with no other eXertion up
on the part of the surveyor than a
ride along the road in question. The
Importance of the invention in mill
tary practice can be easily appreciat-
ed. Hereafter, a general contemplate
ing a march can order his chief en-
gineer out to find the exact topogra-
ply of the road over which the army
is to pass. The engineer, by taking
his wheel, can ride on ahead and re-
! turn in short time with an exact
| profile of the road, so that every OBJ
stacle in the way of heavy ordnance
or supply wagons can be known and
provided for long before the troops
even start on their way
AIR RESISTANCE IN CYCLING.
The Importance of considering air
resistance in cycling is shown in "A re-
cent review of book on cycles by
Professor Boys. He says that if only
the road and machine resistance had
to be overcome, a man who could un.
der ordinary conditions, drive his hi.

PROPER KNEE ACTION.

A man who has conducted bicy-
Gle instruction hall in Boston for more
than ten years, speaks as follows 1T
seems to me as if every day l see
more women on the road with an un-
calmly knee action. They lift their
knees so high that they are bound to
look awkward, while their skirts are
at the mercy of the breeze. Then
they wonder why other women do not
have the same trouble with their skirt
and why they ride so gracefully. They
would be astonished if they were told
that it is all a matter of position and
pedalling, but that is the fact and all
women should learn it,"
Here is another statement that will
be surprising: mo men or women rid
ing with an ordinary six inch crank
should have knee action of more
than six inches land they could get
along nicely inside of five inches. By
this | mean that the distance between
the position of the knee when the pc
dial is down and the leg Strengthened
out, and when the pedal is at its high
est point. When you consider that
the pedal on a siX-inch crank when it
is down is ~ inches from the point of
its upward position, this statement
seems startling. The difference be-
tween twelve inches and five is taken
up by ankle motion. \ woman wear
ing a 2h shoe by pointing her toe
downward when the pedals reach the
bottom limit can easily reach 49, in
ches and can reach the same distance
by pointing the toes upward when
the pedals are at their highest point
in the revolution of the crank. Any
woman who has not learned to ankle
properly can be satisfied of this and
learn how to prevent her skirts from
lifting because of unnecessary knee
action by simply trying the expert
ment of dipping and raising her foot
with the pedal revolution by angle mo-
ton the next time she goes out, and
at the same time noting the difference
in the rise and fall of her skirts. The
matter of position comes in for its con.
sideration, because to ankle properly
the leg should be fully extended
when the pedal is down"

possible, stopping the work of fortify-
ing. Matanzas lies at the head Of a
bay, about four miles from the sea.
This bay at its mouth is three miles
wide. On the west side of the bay is
Point Rubalcava, and on the east side
