eral and Mrs. McKenna. The event, which
was postponed because of the official
mourning, brought together a very dis
tinguished gathering, and the debutante
IS pronounced one of the handsomest of
the season. Miss McKenna is also a very
beautiful girl, and the two sisters are
very popular in Washington society, by
reason of their personal attractions more
than their fathers official position. The
McKenna home is the least pretentious
of the cabinet houses, but it is noted for
its cordial Inequalities.
Mrs. McKenna and her daughters were
assisted in receiving their guests by sew
eral bellies and buds, and the two visit
ors at the white house, Miss Barber and
Miss Mabel Mckinley. These two young
women are enjoying the most ultra of
Washington's numerous gaieties and the
happy combination of being charming,
good-looking and of the Presidential
household assures them a royal welcome
at all functions.
At the Charity ball Thursday night they
were surrounded by crowds of aspiring
partners. This ball, by the way, was an
affair of great brilliancy. Every one hav-
ing social pretensions was present and it
proved the most successful of a series of
annual events, both with regard to finances
and to the social features, which always
play so important part in this func ton.

Lively Experience That Wheelmnn

From the Madras \

FROM the hdufdS Mail
Every one who has been to the Anna
malay hills knows that after he passes
Podanur junction the road crosses an un-
dulating country, and the cyc!ist has to
toll up ridge after ridge, although, of
course, he has the compensatng pleas
ure of letting his machine go when he runs
down the slopes 1t was when I was
spinning down one of these ridges that
this adventure came upon me.
I was looking at some gathering clouds
on the horizon, which foretold a thunder
storm, and I was meditating on my
chances Of arriving at my destination with
a dry coat when suddenly | saw right in
front of me across the road long snake.
It was impossible to swerve to either side,
for the slope was too steep, and was
going fast. The only thing to do was
to stop.
1 back-pedalled with my whole weight.
The rising crank lifted me out of the sad
de as / Strengthened my knee I put
on the brake with all the force that my
right hand could exert, but it only check
ed the speed of the front tire, as the BIZ
cycle went on over the snake, which rose
with a hiss to meet me and extend its
hood.
Quick as lightning it struck at the front
wheel and as it struck l lnstipctively
lifted both hands from the handle-bar out
of harms way and leaned back in my sad
die, the thought flashing through my mind
that shoes and hose gave my feet and legs
a chance, but that my hands were naked
The instant my hand was off the brake
the bicycle shot forward, for in my fright
1 had forgotten to continue to back-pedal
and the road was very steep.
/ had not time to replace my hands on
the handles when / saw that the snake
was half through the front wheel, and
that the wheel was drawing 1t through
the fork with a horrid f'whish" and a
sensible slackening of speed. Then there
was a thud as the head of the snake was
drawn through the fork and hit the road
on the left and a fraction of a second
later a flap of the tail end of the snake
as it was driven through and hit the road
on the right followed by the horrid
"whish' again, as it was once more drawn
through the fork.
There was no time to think. The one
idea that possessed me was to accelerate
this process. / leaned forward over the
handle-bar and pedalled with all my
strength. The dreadful "whish," thud,
flap. "whish" thud, flap, continued, but
the "whish" was not so loud and did not
perceptibly affect the speed of the cycle
The level ground al the foot of the slope
sped across at racing speed, and rushed
the opposite slope as long as ] had any
breath left in me. Then 1 ventured to
get off.
The snakes head was gone as far as
the spectacles on the hood pounded into
a jelly by the hard road. On the right
side Of the wheel the snake tapered off
into q few feshess vertebrae.
I think that no man knows how good
whisky and soda can be until he has bad
cobra In the front wheel Of his bicycle
for a mile or more, the While he has
been pedallipg for dear life!

Plans for the spring training season
have been perfected by almost all the
National League teams. With but few
exceptions, the clubs will call their men
together on March /, and keep them at
practice until the championship season be-
gins.
The Giants will train at Lakewood, Bos-
ton and Philadelphia will seek training
quarters in New Jersey. The Quakers
have settled on Atlantic City, and the

in this, but the success of the Giants last
year has tended to change the ideas Of
some Of the league managers.
Hot Springs is the favorjte stopping
place of Western teams, and Pittsburg
and Cleveland win take up quarters in the
Arkansas town.

South than any other league team. Ewing
has settled upon San Antonio. Tex, es
