MOTORS ron THE BIBULoUs.
Such Vehicles Actually shown at a
Recent Parade In London.
London Sketch.

A recent parade Of about one hundred
motor cars in London exhibited all the
latest and best devices in the line of horse
less vehicles. and many new designs brought
over from the continent were seen for the
first time on English roads. Lighter modes
of construction were especially noticeable
and some of the turnouts stand comparison
with first-class victorias and broughams.
One car in particular. which has earned for
itself the sobriquet of the ''drunkard's car, =
by reason of its adaptation for alcohoIists,
attracted not a little attention. 1t is steered
by bath-chair handle, which is kept slight
ly pressed down when running but IL the
pressure is relieved or the handle is turned
in wide and erratic fashion. 1t runs off the
pressing pin, and the motor automatically
stops.
The motor bicycle was also represented
in the procession-a neat little machine
hardly distinguishable from the ordinary
safety bicycle. except by the addition Of q
tiny petroleum engine attached TO the
handle bars. which is Joined up by an end

Before the session is over. however. the
wisdom OF Congressman Dingley and

apparent 10 all. At least, two OF the
regular appropriation bills will be swelled
to a size greater than they have ever be-
fore known. Perhaps some OF those mena-
bs.rs who have already been elected to stay
at home. like the present representatives
from Washington state, with nothing 10
lose, may have the hariihood to oppose
some OF the items which the secretary
of war and secretary OF the navy will ask
for the strengthening OF their power on
land and sea. but 1t will make no differ
