New Bicycle Game.

A new bicycle game or rather a game
which can be played on wheels. has
lately been evolved by cycling genius
in England. 1t is called the royal game
and requires a court or field divided in
to alleys.
Two teams OF nine riders each take
part, and the field is divided into a right
and left field. with the courses chalked
out plainly. An alleyway, constructed
OF ropes or cables. extends from the up
per to the lower field on the division
line between right and left field. Ca
bles also form two upright Sides be-
tween which the play wheel rolls and
is driven backward or forward by the
riders i'm passing at asny point between
the lower and upper field. The play
wheel is a single bicycle rim. having
a az inch pneumatic tire. The idea OF
the game IT. to drive this play wheel
from the center field. through attack OF
opponents. TO a goal ahead. the riders
using sticks especially made for the
game The ends OF the alleyways are
the goals for the respective teams.
Players ride in single file and always
circle 90 the left. Thus the two trains
arc constantly meeting and passing
each other i'm opposite directions on the
upper sides OF the alleyways. Royal Is

skill and novice would scarcely ven-

Senator Quay got together little party

him 20 Florida TO enjoy the tarpon hsh-
ing, of which he is so fond. Mr.. quay
does not take many days off from his
business of politics but in the season

usually he takes some OF his friends OF
the senate with him on his brief vaca-
ton. These trips are not wholly for rec
Yeation. Frequently the senator holds
political conferences at his fishing
camp. L have no doubt he discussed
Mr.. Wanamaker and the governorship

fishing for salmon or exploring the
