full evening was spent by members and
guests About thirty ladies of the club
were in Roman costume Miss Emily Bow
den occupied a position in the palm bower
ard the sweet music of her harp proved an
attractive feature of the reception. Mr..
Smith entertained the seven hundred guests
with a series Of short talks and explana-
tons and DR.. Newman, pastor OF the First
Congregational Church, also made a short
address. Mr.. Frank Holt had charge of

ENGLISH BICYCLE TRADE.
Apparently Good Market for Sub
stantiaI Cheap wheels.

S. c. Mcfarland, L. S. consul at Noting
ham, Eng, writes to the State Department
regarding the bicycle trade in England:
The present absence of a good Yet cheap
English machine makes any comparison
with American machines of that class
rather doubtful The American youth buys
a wheel for from $50 TO $50, uses It one or
two seasons, and then buys better one
with intervening improvements, for about
the same price The English lad pays from
$50 to 800 for substantially the same ma
chine, but he expects-and his family ex-
pects-it to last a life time. The first class
American wheel of 800 grade would be
worth here about S120 The highest grade
English wheel can now be bought for f1S
$500; the free wheel and powerful Bowden
rear-rim brake attachment, Ego (s1W) Next
season, however, The English market will
be flooded with a cheap-grade machine
costing fI0 $500 This will be really the
first English experiment at making a sub
stantial machine for popular selling price.
The Coventry and Raleigh and Humber
samples stand inspection very well, and
would grade from $50 TO $50 on the Amert-
can market. They are lighter than the
usual style English machine. and are not
SO carefully finished. and the material is
not first-class but they sell well. They are
practically an imitation of the American
wheel designed for quick market purposes
In true adjustment of parts and careful
finish, English high-gFade wheels are said
to excel the American. Each machine is a
special product, turned out with infinite
care. No work is rushed wholesale through
the shop. To build ordinary machine 20
order requires. at the least, ten days, while
a really fine machine will not be built for
delivery short of three weeks. In each case
the bearings are tested and such careful
attention given to details of finish as only
a British or German workman can afford
TO give. for his time does not count for
much; yet any American machine. even If
it be superior in style, to compete success
fully with his product, must approach that
perfection of finish The Raleigh and Hum
Der certainly lead the market here, while
they failed to secure a substantial foothold
in America. and the makers claim they can
not make a machine to sell at American
prices.
THE obvious deduction is that American
makers should be able to sell successfully
here. The English machine weighs twenty
seven to thirty pounds stripped, and runs
up from Twenty-Five to thrty-five pounds
with mud guards, brake, lamp, etc. The
frame is of solid material, and the parts
are cast heavier all over, particularly the
hub and fork crown. Durability Is thought
to be secured, but the result admits of dis
pute and Is at the expense of HghtRess and
style. AT the same time, those manufac-
turers who are figuring upon the English

IN CHESS CIRCLES,

The fifth round of the championship
tourney In the local club was played Sat
urday night 1t was perhaps the only
games in round were played in one
night Mr.. Hanna the bye, the odd
man of the fifteen entries, who was not
paired in this particular round. Mr.. Har-
ris was the first victim Of the fray, Cap
tain O Farrell being the fortunate winner
In the Woodward Walker game Mr.. Wood
ward maintained excellent game against
his expert opponent until late stage
when in the shuffiing of the pieces he
turned into a blind alley and was cap
tured. DIR. Hodges also put up fine
game against Mr.. Adair and STAYED the
Gwyer lost to Mr., Sournin. of the late
additions to the club, but well known
here and in New York, where he was for
merry located, as a. very fine player. Mr..
Gwyer has had the misfortune to be paired
in all the rounds to date with the recog-
nized hardest players in the aggregation
and without doubt will commence to equal
iZe his position from this out.
Mr.. Smith was fortunate enough to go
forward two steps this week. His sched-
uied game was with Mr.. Tibhetts, who
maintained strong attack, but could not
quite reach his goal. and in endeavoring
to enforce hts attack lost material that
finally lost the game Thanksgiving day
Smith won from Mr. Prender IN a we'll
maintained game.
Mr.. Prender drew his game with Mr..
Lyman, and Mr.. Boykin won from Mr..

Prehistoric Mummies in n Gave.

From the Dallas Morning News
George Void of Waco. while hunting
lost cattle in the eastern portion Of lei
Paso county. near the boundary line Of
Texas and New Mexico, discovered a cave
which appearances indicate was the burial
place of ancient people.
The cave may have been artiiclauy hoI-
lowed out of a big rock at The foot OF one Of
the Guadalupe hills near the state border
The appearance Of the entrance and the reEti-
ljrity of the interior portion of the hollow
IN the rock suggest that ii was either par
ually or wholly made by hand. The walls
are scratched with something that may To-.
hierogiyphics made by an extinct race. and
IL some sayant acquainted with those obso-
lete writings should go there he might dis
cover that they are the epitaphs Of the
dead persons whose remains are SUN to Toe
found scattered on the floor and I'm inches
When Mr.. Void and his companions en-
tered the cavern they found that other ex-
plorers had preceded them and portions Of
the mummitied bodies had been removed.
There were seven thoroughly dried up
and one of them is a female. The latter
relic Mr. Void appropriated. and he brought
a portion of il. including the left hand and
a portion of the arm, with him. The taper
ing fingers and symmetry of the hand made

of her attendants.
Everything indicates that centuries have
passed since those people died and were

GRADE CROSSINGS.
Bills to BE Introduced In Congress for
Their Abolition.

It is expected by the District Commission
ers that during the first few days of the
coming session Of Congress bills will be IN
trCduced authorizing the Pennsylvania and
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Companies
to abolish grade crossings on their resp@c-
tive roads within the city limits.
As has been heretofore stated in The
Star, the Commissioners have had frequent
conferences with the officials of both roads,
at which the plans proposed by the
companies We're carefully considered by
the Commissioners. 1t is understood that
the bill relative to the Pennsylvania com
pany is ready for Introduction in Congress,
and 1t Is expected by the Commissioners
that 1t will be introduced In the Senate
some day next week, and in the House of
Representatives Immediately after the
House committees have been appointed.
This bill as well as that relative to the Bal
timore and Ohio company will probably be
introduced in the two houses of Congress
by the chairmen of the respective District
committees.
1t is stated that each company will be
given by the respective measures five years
WITHIN which to complete the work of abo-
tshihg the grade crossings. The manner
IN Whlch the Pennsylvania company will eff
iect the abolition of grade crossings will.
1t Is understood be by means of raised and
depressed tracks. while the Baltimore and
ONO company will secure the same end by
the construction of a viaduct. The bill
relative to the last named company has
not yet been completed, but the Commits
siohefs have advised that it be finished in
time TO permit of it's introduction in Con-
sress within the first week or of the
coming session. The Commissioners are
a.so assured that each road is quite sincere
IN ITS purpose to abolish grade crossings.
ana that each will commence the work as
soon as authorized. and complete 1t at the
very earliest possible day
