BICYCLE HEART.
Medical Examiner Says scorching Unfit
Men 20 BE Soldiers.

Men TO ho soldiers.
CHICAGO. July 1.-Dr s. c. Stanton
who has charge OF the examination OF
recruits for the United States regular
army In this city. has caused a sensa-
tion among medical men by declaring
that an habitual fast rider OF bicycles
or a 'scorcher" is unfit physically tc
serve as a soldier In the army.
He has made this matter the subject
OF the severest tests In his examinations
Of applicants for enlistment and many
men have been rejected because Of a
bicycle heart" as the practitioner
terms It, caused by excessive exercise
IN riding a wheel The doctor says:
"The persistent scorching. or fast rid
ing, has n tendency to enlarge the heart
and thus interfere with it's proper ac-
ton. Few enthusiastic bicyclists can
resist the temptation TO scorch, and as
a consequence the physician believes
that the hearts Of a large proportion Of
this class of riders are more or less
affected This being the case they
would be unable TO endure the hard
ships that army life imposes and should
not be permitted to enter the service"

SHE DID WHAT SHE COULD.

Miss Sadie Williams of Chicago seems to be as determined and useful as if her name were Sarah instead of Sadie. She has shown what can be done with pres ence of mind and a hatpin. She was riding in a Chicago cable car, all un- mindful of the dangers of life in Chi cago. The conductor of the car was also unmindfuL When the car reached tunnel two men jumped upon the rear mained outside. They paid their fares to Symington. and the conductor paid no attention to them. His only inside passengers were two women. At Har- rison street it occurred to him that the stove would be the better for some more coal. He stopped to pick up the shovel and both his arms were violently twist ed behind his back The two men were no longer on the platform and no longer smoking. One of them was holding the conductor's arms and the other was swiftly and dexterously rifling the con- ductor's pockets. Then Sadie Williams rose in her womanhood just as man of the right kind would have risen in his manhood. She ordered the thieves to stop thieving, and she went toward them to enforce her order. One of them pushed her, and as that didn't seem to squelch her he struck her. Then she snatched the long hatpin from her hat and struck him in the breast. The pin broke, but she kept stabbing away until help came and the robbers ran, leaving Sadie mistress of the situation.
 Sadies pluck and skill are much ap- preciated in Chicago, as they ought to be- The robber who carried away a piece of her hatpin in his breast has something to remember her by, and be- fore he tries to rob another car condlc- tor he will make sure that she isn't in the car.

HANNA,s VICTORY.

There was no accident to the arrange ments made for Mr. Hanna and he was elected yesterday. His victory was not very abundant one, but the defeat of those Republicans who conspired against him was abundant enough. They have the hearty contempt of most of the Ohio Republicans and most of the Republicans throughout the coun- try. They have violated all the rules of fair play and honesty in politics, and they will have to live long and well to live down the reputation they have &C., quired. Despite the declarations of the Toledo convention, explicitly in favor of MT. Hanna for Senator; despite the sim liar declarations of Republican legisla- tive conventions all over the State; de- spite the fact that campaign fought distinctly upon this issue ended in MT. Hanna's Endorsement at the polls, the Republican conspirators have tried to take his fairly-won prize away from him. They have failed, and they are now kicking themselves. It Is fortu- nate for them that the feeling against them all over the country is not to be expressed in kicks.

IMPRESSIVE CHANGES.

The changes made by the utilization of electricity haven't exactly been light ming changes, but they have been pretty rapid ones. It is impressive to be re- minded, as we are by Professor Elihu Thomson in the Forum, that so recently as 1887 the discussion of electrical prob lelns was practically tabooed at con- vention of street railroad managers, on the ground that the time required for such debate might more profitably be employed in the discussion of the care and feeding of horses. In 1887 there were some twenty trolley cars in actual service in the United States. Now the number is high in the thou- sands, and the tracks of the trolley roads extend more than 12,O0O miles.
 was considered large if it required one or two hundred horsepower to run it. Now two thousand horsepower is com mon, and there are dynamos in use at Niagara with capacity of five thou sand horsepower. One of these would supply more than fifty thousand incan- descent lights or move five hundred trolley cars. Ten years ago only the
 larger cities were lighted by electricity. Now hundreds of small communities de- pend on the electric current for public and private illumination. There are millions of incandescent lamps in the United States and several hundred l thousand arc lights. The electric light supply stations number nearly three Y! thousand and, together with isolated 1 electric establishments, represent a capital of $500 100000.
 The application of electrical energy | to most varied uses is we'll illustrated at Niagara, where within the last five | years large number of establishments depending more or less completely or | the current for power have been es-
 tablished. The city of Niagara is light.
