Pittsbur, Pa, January 29.-The fin
ish OF the big 72-hour bicycle race was
exciting and was desperate effort of

minutes before the finish all Of the

two high men clear way to fight for
the honor and money. Fixes was in
the lead with Waller tapping his wheel.
A lively pace was set at once. Many
times Waller put on all his power to
pass his young opponent, but each
time Elkes' reserve force proved the
better and amid the widest kind of
enthusiasm kept the lead to the end.
The final score was: Elkes 1922
miles, laps, 60 yards; Waller 1922
miles, laps and IS yards; Schinneer,
1874 miles, laps; Hall. 1911 miles,

very few thoroughly bad women.
1t was Gods and Natures intention that
every woman should be the mother of

WANTS THE MEET IN 1899.

New York, January 29-New York
is already trying to get the national
race meet of 1899. The question has
ben discussed considerably by some
of the most inhuentia! members of The
League of American Wheelmen, with p
view Of having the big event take
place in the greater city. The local
consulate began the discussion at its
meeting last week. and the opinion
was general that New York was en-
titled to the meet and that committee
representing the consulate the Asso-
dated Cycling Clubs of this city and
tbs Associated Cycling Clubs Of Long
Island should take up the matter at
the earliest opportunity and declare its
purpose.
Boston already has announced It's
candidacy for the meet, but this is an
annual thing for the Bay State people
to do, and. besides, it is quite evident
! that large majority Of the L. A. w.
members would prefer this city to any
other in the East.

all the changes in chain wheels for
1895, has appeared. 1t is remarkable
example of the latest fads carried TO

suggests the important role that
wheels of this kind may play i'll the
future.
The bicycle has flush joints, four
inch head, a drop of three AMI one
fourth inches at the crank harger and
the axle with cranks in one piece. The
back stays and rear forks are brought
together into one stem before being
joined to the crank hanger The
front forks are a continuous piece Of

Still another chainless wheel has ap-
peared that has not bevel gears. This
time it is what may best tie called a
tooth and roller gear. The teeth are
triangular in shape with their sides
cut in a peculiar double curve.
