Joy at Camp Alger.

There is JOY ut Camp Alger, for Q time
at least, because although Col Abbot IL
still acting brigadier-Reneral Of the Third
Brigade, Second Division, Second Army
Corps. he 10 again colonel of the First
Rhode Island Regiment, and every body
Is glad Of IL, the colonel himself not be-
ing the least joyful OF them all. Brig
Gen. Nelson Cole, of st. Louis reported
yesterday at division headquarters for
duty inc then went back to Washington,
where he will spend two or three days
before actually assuming command, Col.
Abbot running things in the meantime.
There is a belief in camp that the relega-
tion OF Col. Abbot to his own command
shows the direction I'm which the wind IL
blowing, to wit, towards Porto Rico. IL
is generally believed hat Col. Abbot has
been placed at the head of the regiment
again because IL will soon be detached
from the Third Brigade and constitute a
part 0f the force for the occupation of
Porto Rico.

remained over night In town under

The damp northerly wind still blew
down the river at dawn, and while ir
had but little life 1t brought from over
the Connecticut hills a mass OF towering
clouds that prov6d anything bat attrac-
tive TO these who had tickets for tho OBJ
servotion train.
The wind, however. did not materially
affect the water and during the early
morning hours there were the best of
prospects that the crew would fight out
the four miles she scheduled time, half
past twelve. FULLY half of the rro wd III

1t was impossible to disguiss tie fact
that the sQuall of yesterday had taken
much OF the life out Of today's events.
Notwithstanding the fact that two races
were to be roued within q few hours OF
eacn other. The forenoon brought out
quite q fair sized crowd n quite q

to discuss last night 90 to which or the
crews would suffer the most by the dis
appointment. The letting was light,
for about all those who cared Tor it q
placed their M and only the late
uomers were looking for . ance to back
their favorites today.
ihe crowds began to gather on the BIG
draw bridge n on the hanks OF the
river near the finish about noon and the

up to the starting line and the thousands

simply cried, "Oh, sugar" or something

She was a good deal annoyed at the ocCa-

Notwithstanding her injury very jolly
time was had all around. They had the

On that very evening her best young
man called. The visit was rather unex-
pccted. Still she was always glad to see
him under any circumstances, although
her friends said, and she agreed with them
to some extent, that he was just little
too dignified. The fact was he had thought
of the ministry at one time, but had nos
been able to bring himself to decision
At the present time he was SO occupied
with her that no ideas not connected With
her personality made much progress.
When he came in on this particular
evening, her aunt-she was living with
her aunt-told him Of the accident while
he was waiting for his idol to appear.
When she did come, he thought that as an
experiment he would not mention It, bus
would see how long she would refrain
from speaking of it. He even determined
to go further than this and have q little

A CLEVER EQUITY JUDGE. -,
But as q jury He Proved q Monumental
Failure.

Failure.
Ex-Judge Dillon delights In telling
anecdotes of the days when he was on the
United States circuit bench and held
court in Kansas. He lately told the story,
to some New York friends Of jury In his
court at Leavenworth which tried Brown
county woman who was charged with sell
ing whisky without u government license.
1t WAS shown by the testimony that the
woman was in the habit Of concocting q
medicine from whisky and herbs, which
she sold to ncighboring farmers. This
was tho jury's verdict: I've do hereby find
the defendant not guilty, but we warn her
that if she does not cease the practice she
is likely to go to jail"
Once upon a time there was happening
in Judge Dillon's court at Leavenworth
which so far he has never embodied In any
Of his anecdotes. 4 man had been indiot-
ed for STEALING government mules from
Fort Hays. Judge Horton was then Unit
ed States district attorney, and Tom Fen
lon, the well known Leavenworth lawyer,
appeared for the defense 1t happened
when the case was reached on tho docket
that two juries were already out, and
Judge Dillon remarked that the case would
have to be postponed until one of them
caIne in. Mr. Fcnlon stated that the de-
PENDANT was ready to go to trial before the
count Wit,out \ jury, and with this waiver
the case went to trial. The governments
officers testified to tho prisoners guilt in
y manner that appeared to be conclusive,
but in rcbuttal the prisoner produced
gruaG gang of pals who clearly proved an
alibi. When Judge Dillon came to deliver
his verdict, he said, while the preponder-
anco Of testimony appears to be greatly in
favor OF the accused, am nevertheless
Convinced Of his guilt, and will so de-
cid"
Tom Fcnlon was divided between aston
isllment and anger. He said nothing, how
ever, until he met the judge at the dinner
table that day in the Planters hotel, when
he walked up to the table where his honor
was sitting and said:

Standard Saddles.

During the last season great improve
ment in cycle sundries las been going
ON so quietly that it has hardly been ap-
preciated. year ago decided progress
has been made in about everything but
lamps and saddles. There is still room
FOR much Improvement in the lamp, but
the saddle question has been solved, as
may he judged by the fact that all manu-
factures are approaching common stand
ard. This is the ''hygienic," in which
two pads bear the riders weight, which
Tests ia a manner that has secured tie
approval of medical authorities.
The first "hygienic" saddle was an im-
mediate success, but require many Changes
before it could be generally used. Other
manufacturers learned the lessons taught,
and this wear rider has, for the first time
in the history of cycling, fair chance of
securing a comfortable seat.
The popular type VIII be the racing saddle,
With pads Of the proper degree OF hardness
and the proper curvature No pommel is
used. Many riders may feel that without a
pommeI their safety is endangered, but with
a hyglenic saddle, Well fitted it viii be
found that a nose is entirely unnecessary.
The times., 1898-01-16

Many riders at once apply the pump, hoping
that the tire which has just lost its air
VIII by some lucky chance hold fresh
supply. What can there tee more ridiculous
than rider working with hand pump
until blue in the face, trying TO fll tire
with two-fnch cut in IL?
A tire which goes down slowly either has
small puncture in IT or leaky valve.
Generally the Trouble is at the valve.
IL possible, take oGt the valve and clean it;
a tiny speck OF dust is probably the cause
of all the trouble. A valve can generally
be blown out clean by pumping the tire
fun OF air, and then eXhausting it by al
lowing the air to escape with as great
rush as possible, blowing all PARTICLES of
dust out of the valve.
This is not designed to be dissertation
on tire repairing, but simply hint,
which would seem to be unnecessary,
bat which is important, TO first make sure
your valve is all right, if NO large pune
ture is visible, and then make sure of
the seat OF trouble and make at least
an attempt at repair before heading for a
ira in.

COMMISSION MAN FINED.
Bahner Assessed 50 For Not Making
Remittance

Remittance.
Andrew Banner. formerly engaged in
the produce commission business on
Louisiana avenue, was fined five dollars
yesterday by Judge Scott in the Police
Court on the charge of not making
proper returns of the sales of produce
sent to him to be sold on commission
At late hour in the afternoon he had
not paid his fine.
The complainant, Mrs. Seville Sher-
man, of Virginia. stated that she had
sent Bahner twelve barrels of apples
for which she had received no returns.
although she had several times de-
manded settlement.
At the conclusion of Mrs Sherman's
testimony the court took recess.
When it reconyened Mrs. Sherman
asked Judge Scott to dismiss the charge
against Bahner Assistant District At
torney Muilowney protested and Judge
Scott ordered the Investigation to pro-
ceed
Mr. John NJ. Spindle, who. at the re-
Quest of the prosecuting witness, had
called on Mr. Bahner for payment for
the fruit shipped by Mrs Sherman. said
from the conversation he had had with
Bahner he was satisfied that he did not
intend to pay for the goods.
In his own behalf, Mr.. Bahner said
that the produce received from Mrs
Sherman was not what she represented
it to be, and, consequently, brought a
very small price in the market. He
made no explanation of the charge of
failing to remit the amount he did
receive.
