BICYCLE NEWS NOTES

With the advent of the country rid tng seaScn which is now beginning, prospective tourists will do we'll to take under consideration the many advan- tages to be deprived from membership in the League of American Wheelmen. One of the principal things essential to the cycling tourist is thorough knowledge of the routes and roads to be travelled and in no way can this knowledge be better or more readily acquired than through the medium of good road books. In Connecticut the state officers of the l.. A. W. have pre- pared what has been pronounced by competent critics to be the best road book ever put out for cyclists use, and it is given freely to all new mem bers joining from this state It is alone worth the cost of initiation and mem bership fees as it is an invaluable aid to the tourist and a veritable path finder" in all that the name implies. It Is a perquisite of membership and delineates with accuracy every route of travel in the state, also showing the routes to be preferred and care fully noting the conditions of the roads. In the back of the book is published a well prepared list of hotels which give special rates to l.. A. w. members, and a list of local officials, whose duty it is to furnish all additional information at their command concerning local condi- tions. The fact that the division has spared no expense to make the book as exhaustive and complete as possible is a self evident guarantee of it's worth.
 State Circuit to Danbury.
 The opening of the Connecticut state circuit at Danbury on Memorial day, May 30, will be signalized with an attractive program which has just been arranged by the Altair Cycle club of that city, under whose auspices the meet will be conducted. The morning will be devoted to a ten-nile handicap road race which starts on West street at 10:30 o'clock, and the track races which start at 1:30 o'clock in the after noon on the fair grounds track are as follows: One mile open, one mile han dicap, half mile handicap, one mile 2:45 class, half mile state championship, one mile handicap. All the above events are for amateurs and entries will close on May 21 Some members of the Yale track bicycle team have signified their intention to compete. R. F. Kelsey of Hartford, handicapper for New Eng land. will officiate as referee.

standing.
 MEMORIAL DAY RACES All
 BRIDGEPORT.
 The management of Pleasure Beach track, Bridgeport, has arranged a good program of races for Memorial day, May 30, the principal feature of which will be ten-mile match race between the we'll known professional riders Fred c. Hoyt of that city and E. A. McDuffee of Cambridge, Mass. Each man is limited to sixteen pacemakers and multi-cycle pacing machines will be used. The purse will be 40 per cent. of the gross gate receipts. An event of local interest will be a five-mile pur- suit race between Tom Clark and J.. M. Weidenhammer, both well known Bridgeport amateur riders. The pro- gram also includes one mile tandem handicap professional and one mile amateur entries for which will close on May 23.
 GRAPHITE.
 When the cyclist applies his stick of graphite to his chain he does not stop to consider the multifarious uses to which the very humble material he carelessly refers to as dope is put. As matter of fact, graphite is ex- ceedingly useful in very many ways. Besides lubricating bicycle chains, it is graphite that protects gun powder from dampness and gives it's gloss to shot; supplants other minerals in paint and polishes the kitchen range; lubri- cates bearings of all kinds of machin- cry; displaces silver in the photograph gallery and greases the hubs of wa gons; is made into crucibles for the smelting of metals and adds to the life of leather belting; cools the heated journals of locomotive bearings and covers the bottoms of racing yachts, and last, but by no means least, makes It's mark in the form of a lead pencil.
 MICHAEL.
 Michael has not the slightest chance of ever becoming a horse rider, in the opinion of prominent trainer, who did not care to be quoted in the mat ter. This man said Michael had been jollied along by the touts and some of the trainers of the track in the hope that they might sell some gold bricks in the way of poor horses at high prices and thus obtain some of the $14,000 which the little fellow claims to have won in cycle racing last season, and which amount, by the way, is about one-third as much as 1t was thought he won. The horseman quoted says that Michael has not the form for a jockey of success, that he is too old to learn the business, and that cycle racing should be his forte until such time as his chances were so slim the money could not be made, when he should re- tire to private life and enjoy his we'll earned funds and not sink them at the 1 horse track.
 | KILOMETRES.
 l Some races in which the distance will be told off in kilometers are prom | ised for the coming season. A kilomet- CT is 62-100 of a mile or 1,O93 2-3 yards. Races of this kind will give some of the foreign riders chance to travel their favorite distances in meeting Am erican riders and may do considerable | toward making the metrical system popular. Negotiations are now under way for a hundred kilometer race l (62 miles) between Tom Linton and some other long distance rider.

sonal Notes.
 The Wallingfords defeated a strong New Britain team on Saturday by a score of 9 to 4. The game was quite an interesting one although from the first it was evident that the visitors were booked for a defeat. Casey, the old reliable pitcher for the home team, was in the box for the first time this season and although he was little wild at times he proved to be an enig- ma to the New Britain batters, who hit safely but once in the first five innings and scored but four safe hits during the game. All the runs they scored were the result of chances by errors after bases on called balls. The local team played a sharp game with the exception of a few errors made. Ted Gardner surprised himself and his friends iby making two safe base hits. The score by innings was as fol- lows:

Vexation is loudly expressed by
the accountants in some of the
larger disbursing Offices of the
Government. 1t is about the
Auditing Department Regula-
tions, No. l." just published by
authority under the new Audit
Law. The officials think that the
regulations clash with the law
providing for the garnisheeing of
the salaries or wages of Govern
ment employees. Some of them
look upon the new rule as virtu-
ally making a dead letter of that
law. Where their trouble comes
in is the fact that they have posted
in their books long lists
of garnishee judgments,
some of which, at the rate of pay
mpnt arranged, will take a year OF
more to satisfy. Now the n"w
regulations prescribe hat all per

Among the points discussed in
connection with the annexation
resolution, in the House of Repre-.
sentatives in Washington, was the
hula dance. Mr.. Berry, Demo
crat, of Kentucky had seen it in
Honolulu, and he declared that
more. immoral performances
could be seen nightly in Wash =
ington thesters." Mr.. Rhea, from
the same State and of the same
party, led the attack on Hawaii on
account of its wickedness and
disease. 1t might truthfully have
been said that, comparatively, the
hula is as little known to the gen
eral community in these islands
as is the Indian ghost dance to the
people of the United States.
