er rim. On the hub of the hind wheel is
a similarly arranged sprocket, only this
one Is attached firmly 10 the wheel.
Beneath and against both is a small
steel rod, in which is grooved an end
less spiral The pegs of the driv-
ing sprocket wheel fit into the spiral.
and by the revolution OF the pedals the
grooved rod is forced TO reyolve. This
turns the rear wheel by means of the
small attached sprocket, the pegs on
the outer edge Of which also fit into
the spirals Of the rod at the other ex-
tremlty. The inventor claims that be-
cause of the twisting leverage OF the
spiral strain can be taken that would
wreck other gearing devices. The
spiral rod and the sprockets are in
cased in an aluminium tube and are
dust-proof.
The model bicycle, which is now at
Glen Ellyn, works well, and, according
TO bicycle men. bears out all the claims
mnde for II by the inventor.-Chicago

For quite time sat up in bed and
listened, but no more unusual sounds
followed.
Mrs. Snyder's words concerning mys-
terious happenings in my house and
Sarah's unreasonable fears for my safe

toned, did have an effect upon me, al
though the first event was due wholly
TO an ordinary cause, and the second,
the apparent sound of a slamming door,
might be. and probably was, just what
IL seemed. A gentle night breeze had
arisen, and some of the windows In the
upper part of the house might have
been left open, thereby producing
draught and causing an intervening
door TO swing shut. True, the sound
seemed 10 come from beneath me. But
then that was probably Imagination.

OF vague fancies and indistinct ideas
which characterize the period between
waking and sleeping.
Then, almost before my eyes could
open, suddenly sat up in bed and
listened with hearing sharpened by the
sense Of expectancy which had come
over me.
Out through the silence OF my room
| there came stealing the sound of voice
but such voice! Not possessed by
any human being. surely Pitched or
high, quavering tone, and yet so soft
and small; so faint, as though born,
from great distance; so plain. a,

If there were in the world weird, mis-

There was no wonder Mrs. Snyder
had been impressed by II, IL this were
the voice she had heard.

Long distance riding has developed
remarkably within year, the figures
showing gain OF II miles for the pa
hour record. Cordang, the doughty
Dutchman, is 81 miles ahead Of his near
est competitor. Huret. When the sea-
son Of 1895 opened the 24-hour record
was less than $40 miles. The present
record (Cordangs) Is 0i6 miles $40
yards. AT the close Of 1890 the record
was 545 miles and some odd yards
Rivierre, the champion 24-hour rider OF
1896, made $50 miles 4s0 yards, gain
of but l6 miles over the figures for 1895.
The 24-hour record apparently fails
TO impress Americans as being OF spe-
clal Importance. IIuret and Rivierre,
both Frenchmen, are idolized by their
compatriots because Of their 24-hour
work, and Cordang is at the present
time one OF the most popular Dutchmen
living. No American seems 70 covet the
honors gained by these foreigners and
we see nothing 70 lament In the fact.
The 24-hour record ride has little OF
the horror OF the six-day grind but IL
Is nevertheless a test OF mere brute en-
durance, calling for the exercise OF only
the purely animal functions, The
sprint race appeals more directly 20 the
American temperament and brings into
play judgment and determination, as
well as properly trained muscles. The

SCREW REPLACES CHAIN.
A Chicago wheeiman's Model for .
,OS Bicycle.


John Rauhoff has invented a chain
less bicycle that Is neither a cog nor
bevel gear. The principle which he has
applied Is that of the spiral screw, and
by changing the pitch of the screw the
gear can be increased or diminished
10 almost any desired amount. In the
application of the principle Mr.. Rau-
hoff, who is Chicago man, claims that
with the energy equivalent TO that ex-
pended on an ordinary gear of 20 he can
secure a speed of 100 gear. BY increas-
ing the size Of the sprockets, the gear
can be made still greater.
A model has been built for DIR. James
Saunders, who has implicit faith in the
new invention. He has exhibited IL
70 few personal friends, but as APP
plication has been made for a patent the
details OF the device have until now
been kept a secret.

contained fluids which closed up the
holes made by tacks, nails or other
things, but for some time nothing that
Is absolutely new has been patented

New York, Sept. 4.-The sweltering
heat of the past few days has given
place tonight to a shade of GOODNESS.
While the heat of the city was not as
great today in the matter of degrees
it was just as insuffereable and more
so than that of Saturday, on account
of the duration and continuance fthe
hot weather. Up to midnight there
had been reported 43 deaths in "A pros
trations from the heat. Today every
thing that foated carried a crowd of
humanity, and the trains, cable and
trolley cars and other modes of loco
motion were damned with people all
day long.
The average temperature of the day
in degrees was 81, against &C for the
corresponding day of last year.
The maximum temperature was So.
but the heat was heightened by the hui
nudity, which was so per cent all day
long
There were 20 prostrations and four
deaths from the heat reported in Ho-
boken.
Thirty deaths from heat were re-
ported today in the bOroughs of Man
haitian and Bronx.
Several deaths and many prostrations
were reported in the borough of Brook
Ign. The names of only five dead have
been secured by the police.
