teen miles between "Fred' Hoyt, OF

Boston. Each man will be paced by
some OF the fastest multicycle teams i'm
the country.
Jack Robinson, the English Splinter
who won the mile open on Saturday, in
Philadelphia, is riding well, but needs a
week or two to put him at his best. He
has been unfortunate in regard to wheels,
being forced to ride road wheel most Oh
the time and, besides, has not bad fuls
two weeks training since he /; nd ID in

The wonder OF the camp at Woodside
Park is Paul Boulette, the French rider.
He is the man Tom Eek picks to defeat

They seem to take turns alternately in
defeating one another. Upon each occa-

two hurling anything but endearing
names at each other. As yet they have
not come to blows, but an impromptu
scrap between these two stars may hap
pen at any time, as each hates the other
like poison. At present Cooper seems to
have the best of the argument, as he is
in better condition than his

A chain boiled in a solution Of washin,
soda and water is said to be one of the
best methods of cleaning. The chair

The riding of the foreign racing men
at the annual race meet of the Penn
sylvania Bicycle Club Saturday in Phila-
delphia, proves very conclusively that
when in condition they are likely to
show our riders the way across the tape
many times. Their sprints are long and
fierce, and the headwork they display is
far superior to that of the American
riders.
At Utica yesterday L. G. Bald and Tom
Cooper, the two prospective champions

his thoughts upon the forge Of personal

the hammer, rude and unfinished in
form. For this very reason Progress

OF deep significance that such book
should have reached circulation Of far
upward Of 100, 600 copies. Upon the
pressure Of the early popularity of his

his present personality. and his great

GRACE IN WALKING.

There Is a foundation Of fact for the
criticism that very few women are able
10 walk gracefully. This Is no doubt
partially due to the fact that walking as
form Of exercise Is falling into disuse
the more's the pity. Properly indulg-
ed, nothing can take its place as a
health-giving exercise. Even the scien-
tific papers have taken up the subject OF
the feminine gait, and one OF them
earnestly asks: How many women know
how to walk? Observe them In the
street or entering a drawing room, even
the better classes. One shsmbles, an
other slouches as II her shoes were down
at the heel, but most Of them dive,
straining every muscle In their bodies,
blowing along with strenuous effort, like
q ship in high sea and facing head
winds. A perceptible swing OF the
body should be manifest with every step
that is, advance all Of one side at the
same time, with slight turn right and
left OF the shoulders as the correspond
ing foot is projected. A long step-not
stride-easy, unhurried, the leg thrown
forward from the hip-this IL the secret
Of the ideal gait.
