MAJOR T AYLOR.

But the sturdy little fellow rose above
all difficulties. He was obliged to ride
on the outside of the track to avoid the
schemes of his rivals. None of them
dared ride on the outside with him as
they could not ride fast enough. Unless
they stayed in the bunch where they
could be carried along without feeling
the strain, they would not be in the race
at all.
In spite of the handicap which he con-

Victor Ekberg Has Captured More Priz S

Among all the flyers of this city there
is not much doubt but that young Vic

they may try to pocket the plucl1y lit

and crosses the tape a winner.
Among his many triumphs may be
mentioned the race at Westboro, on
Aug. 7, 1895 Ekberg won his first nov
ice race there, and at the end of that
season he had carried away eight first
prizes, five seconds and two thirds, in
Guiding the Worcester county one-mile

THE MAJOR is KING.
Taylor Has Defeated Every Rider on the
Track and is a Wonder.

ildSk dUO Is d w OOu6F'
The king of all bicycle riders in the
world at the sprints is Major Taylor,
who makes his home in Worcester. The
little fellow has demonstrated beyond
the shadow of doubt that he is entitled
to the place of honor among cyclists,
for he has not only ridden faster than
any other man ever went behind a b.
cycle PAGER, but he has defeated every
rider on the track.
1t was last year that Major Taylor
made performances that disproved the
predictions of every pretended bicycle
authority. He deserves the more credit
because he did his racing under the
greatest handicap that a rider can face
the jealousy of other riders who did
everything in their power to defeat him.
They combined against him to force
him into pockets and did not even hest
tate at throwing him from his wheel

For three months she eoughed incessant

that some OF this apparatus was known
TO be incorrect when purchased. Since
the law was passed only one half per cent
that has been installed is faulty. The dipper
process is not good one for taking milk
samples. The speaker described a meth
cd OF securing fair sample and favored
the composite sample, made up every day.
Under the new law creamery operators
have to be examined as to their fitness.
Some $50 have been licensed and 80 barred
out. There is, however, no way OF abso-
lutely insuring honesty in milk test.
Farmers must and should trust to some
extent in their fellowmen and the truth is
that milk testers are no worse than farm
ers themselves, some OF whom have been
known To beat the creamery by DOCTOR
ing their milk so as to raise their test.
