and British stan officers, Is RESPONSE
bic for the fact that little news arrived
yesterday from South Africa. The
war office officials are working under a
great strain. The gloom caused by
the British disaster at Ladysmith was,
in measure, relieved by story Civ
ing an account Of the heroic stand
made by the decimated battalions un-
til their last cartridge was gone. 1t is
known that the Gioucesters and fusi-
liers fought against overwhelming
odds and upheld the best traditions of
the British army, and the tension has
been relieved, since there is no longer
ground to dread that the loss of life
and men was accompanied with dis
honor.
An unconfirmed statement is pub
lished that Gen. Sir Redyers Butler has
left Cape town for Ladysmith.
A belated dispatch from Ladysmith
describing Mondays fight says:
a couple OF squadrons Of hussars had II mar
row escape from disaster early in the day
They found themselves suddenly confronted,
within easy range, by an overwhelming force OF

The queen is credited with express
ing sincere pity for Sir George Stewart
White, and the officials are in no wise
inclined to iu lge him harshly. So far
as the pubic is concerned, however,
while graft hcation is felt at the man
ner in which the isolated battalion SUR

for Gen. White and Lieut.. Col Carleton
for allowing the column to get out of
touch, for the absence of proper scout
ing and for not retiring when the am
munition was lost. In favor of Lieut..
Col. Carleton, the explanation is haz-
arded that he believed it was impera-
tive to the success of Gen. Whites
operation that he should hold the posi-
ton at Nicholson's Mex.
The Morning Post comments severely
upon the British contempt for the
! large Boer force at Acton Homes could
be held in force by Carleton's small
column, 1t points out that even if the
British there had been supplied with
ammunition they could have held out
only IA few hours longer, inasmuch as
they were in the most complete sense
detached and because nobody appar-
entity at Iadysmith had any idea of
their distress or took any measures to
rescue them. THE column was sacri-
feed " says the Morning Post, "because
it was sent into action gagged and
blindfolded. 1t had neither scout nor
patrol. Twelve hundred men We're
thrown away for lack of cavalry which
would not have been missed from an
other part of the field"

BICYCLES ARE STRONG.
III weight Is Distributed over the
whole Machine the Resistance
Is Astonishing.

In order 10 demonstrate the wonder
full strength Of bicycle an interesting
experiment was made recently. A
wheel was fixed in a stationary posi-
ton and on it was placed a platform
weighing 100 pounds. Then one after
another the assembled spectators were
invited to take their stand on the plat
form. Ten men mounted, and the BIZ
cycle was supporting a weight of 100
pounds without any perceptible strain
on the wheels. Then five more men,
one after the other, mounted the stage,
and upwards of 1880 pounds was by
this time pressing on the wheel, but il
still showed not the slightest sign OF
having reached the breaking point.
Sixteen, II, IS, 10, 20 men stood on the
wheel, and the bicycle, weighing itself
only 80 pounds, was supporting on its
back weight of over 5000 pounds. AT
this point some of the spokes showed
signs of buckIing under the great
strain, and as the collapse of the human
freight would have resulted in a pos
sible injury TO some, ii was deemed
best TO call down the men. An
examination of the wheel showed that
the strain had not incapacitated the
machine. 1t could still be ridden with
safety and comfort after the severe
experience il had gone through.
1t was proven by the experiments
that while n slender machine like BIZ
cycle will speedily collapse under Sc
we're pressure on any one part, If the
weight can be distributed over the
whole machine the resistance is as
tonishing. Compared with the weight
put on the wheel in the tests, the pres

RULE OF THE ROAD.
Riders of bicycles Are Entitled ny
Law TO IA Part nt Least OF Any
Beaten Track.

The legal status of the bicycle as n
vehicle entitled TO the rights of the road
and subject to the accepted rules of the
highway has been set forth so often
that the question would seem TO require
no further adjudication. Nevertheless
there are drivers who still think the
steel steed Is not to be respected or re-
garded as entering into their calcula-
tions in any way and there are bicy-
clists prone 10 take and keep the wrong
side OF the road when they feel like it,
regardless OF the rights of drivers or
fellow bicyclists. For the benefit Of
such as these it will do no harm to quote
the law again, and the attorney general
OF Illinois has outlined it so concisely
that an opinion written by him for the
enlightenment Of the inquiring bicy-
clist will bear repeating.

pedia os Law, second edition, says (p.

A splendid feat of horsemanship, says
the London Critic, was performed the
other day at Cults, near Aberdeen.
James Lawson, of Cults, was riding a
spirited horse on the road when n cy-
clist approached at a rapid rate on the
wrong side. The cyclist was leaning
forward on his handle. and wsr1i
shout from Mr.. Lawsoa failed 10

could not get out Of the way in time;
so, turning his horse slightly TO the
side at the point where the collision
seemed imminent, he raised him on his
hind legs and allowed the cycist TO pass
through underneath the body Of the
horse.
