LONG HARD RIDE.
Canadian Whcelman Tells About His Ride
to This City from St. John.

When Tuesday nights Pullman
pulled out of this city it had aboard V.
w. Dyknow, and the bicycle which he
claimed had carried him from ST.
Johns N. b.. to this city on his way
to New York City.
Mr.. Dyknow when seen. Tuesday
evening, presented the appearance of a
man who had been through hard ride
and just before the arrival of the west
bound train, was curled up in one cor
ner of the waiting room apparently
trying to get a few moments sleep.
His wheel, which was on the baggage
truck outside of the station was a
holy sight. There was hardly part OF
the original wheel visible on account
Of the mud. The chain was 50 stiff II
would hardly run over the sprock Il
wheels and this combined with the mud
stored around the rear forks, gave the
rear wheel an enforced but much need
ed vacation
In speaking Of his trip, Mr.. DyknoW
told the story: He started from st.
Johns last Saturday. on his way to
New York City His employer, who is
in the iron manufacturing business had
started on the day before for New York
City. Thinking it a good time to make
Il wheel trip he had started out.
During the greater part of the trip
he had been in the habit of riding early
in the morning in order that he might
avoid the heat during the middle of the
day. II had been his habit to rest dur
ing the middle of the day and for that
reason had not been bothered about his
meals.
Guided by the experience of other
tourists he had made it practice to
buy extra clothing when necessary,
rather than take a heavy pack with
him. Near Bucksport he found the
roads almost impossible and was
obliged to walk While walking down
steep hill he had fallen, injuring his
knee. The injury proved to be trifinG
and he mounted his wheel and contin-
ued to push it through in spite Of tn"
rain. On account Of the hard work
necessary. he had felt no discomfort
on account of the cold.
Mr. Dyknow is a member of the
Wheehman's association in Canada.
which corresponds to the L. A. w. N
this country and on account of his
membership. was received in a royal
manner by all the L. A. w members.
While the main object Of the tour is
a pleasure trip Mr.. Dyknow is gather
ing material for a road book. giving a
good route from ST. Johns to New
York City
He arrived in this city late Tuesday
night, and after eating his supper tha
injured knee began to bother him and
for that reason went by train 10 Port
land. He was expected to arrive in
New York City by Saturday, if the
weather favored him.
Mr.. Dyknow is a man of about -
years although he looked rather oldec
on account of the hard ride he had
taken Tuesday.
