Gimm Fully Recovered.

Louis Gimm, who broke down during
the siX-day contest at Mechanics pavil-
ion in San Francisco last winter, is pro-
nounced cured by his physician, and
was discharged recently from St.Luke's
hospital. Gimm suffered from acute d.
lation of the heart due to overexertion
and blood poisoning, according to the
doctors. The latter was local affec-
ton caused by infection, where the cut
icle over the hips was abraded by fall
ing from his wheel. This abrasion is
common to wheelmen and is known
among them as the Cyclists trade
mark" The infection was probably
caused by impurities upon the towels
or on the hands of his rubbers down,
or it might have been due to poisonous
matter in the dye of his clothing. While
the young cyclist is practically well, he
will never be able to resume racing.

Notable Duels.

An extraordinary duel has been
fought by two Italian naval officers on
the outskirts Of Rome. The weapons
were swords, in the use of which both
combatants were adopts. The combat
lasted fifty minutes, and at the fourth
mise en- garde the blades were so
hacked and damaged that the seconds
found it necessary to call halt in
order to change the battered swords
for new ones. Finally, when both adj
versaries were ready to drop from the
exhaustion of an hours fighting, Lieut..
R. fortunately received cut in the
forearm which put an end to this extra
ordinary encounter. Another equally
long and even more harmless duel was
fought recently in Siracuza between
two journalists, so skilled in the noble
art CT fencing that after thirteen
rounds neither Of the two had received
the slightest scratch.-London Leader.

A HENS Strange Fancy.

A rather unique affection Of fowls
for animals is to be seen in Sioux
City. A. w. GLENN of this city has a
number of fancy breeds of poultry says
the st. Louis Globe-Democrat. He re-
Gently purchased setting of eggs and
placed them under an old hen in his
hen house. In the same hen house
lives a bull terrier. A few days ago
the animal gave birth to eight white
puppies, and they were placed in box
in the corner. To the establishment Of
the owner his hen left her thirteen
eggs and placed herself in full charge
of the puppies. For three days she has
been cuddling the tiny pups under her
wings, and will allow no one to take
them away without great fight. The
mother of the pups is on friendly re-
lations with the hen, it would seem,
for she lies on the floor and seems to
have no objection to the foster mother.
In the meantime the expensive setting
Of eggs spoiled.

NOTES OF THE WHEEL
MATTERS OF INTEREST TO DE-
VOTEES OF THE BICYCLE.
How Miller Won-ltallan Dark Horse
His Most Dangerous Rival-FlsheI
Ran Second-Some Recent Inventions
and improvements.


Details Of the 100-hour race which
was run in Roubaiy, and won by Miller
state that from the start Miller was the
favorite, while Frederick and Nawn
were picked for second and third
choice. There were sixteen starters, of
whom ten finished. In the eighth hour
Nawn touched Frederick in passing and
fell, bringing down Miller and Beau
gendre, and all lost a lap. Miller rode
steadily and paid little attention to
those who sprinted in the first pat of
the race, gaining laps on him. AT the
end of the first twenty-four hours
Fisher crossed the tape first with lead
of yard over Miller, the two having
covered about 416 miles, while Miller
was three lengths behind. Immediate
ly thereafter Fisher retired to sleep,
Muller taking the lead with Miller in
second position. Muller, practically
unknown Italian, dismoanted for the
first time at the end of twenty-eight
hours. The fight in the race was be-
tween Miller and Muller, who proved
most dangerous rival for the American.
Miller tried his best to sprint away
from the Italian at almost every lap,
but found it impossible to surprise him.
Miller tried every device to shake Null
Ter and force him to take the lead, but
the Italian refused to set any of the
pace. At the end of forty-eight hours
he had covered S91 miles while Miller
was twenty miles behind The follow
ing day Muller's tire punctured and he
also lost couple of laps through in
disposition, so that at the end Of the
seventy-second hour Muller had 1,104
miles to his credit and Miller about
1902. Miller then began succession
of sprints every second or third lap.
The Italian followed easily for while
but these tactics proved too much for
him, and in the end Miller succeeded
In gaining lap on him. In the sew
enty-eighth hour Muller touched an
other rider in passing and fell, injuring
his head so that he had to be removed
to his tent, where he fell into long
sleep. From then on Miller had an
easy task, his nearest competitors be-
ing several miles behind. 1t seems al
most certain he would have won even
had Muller not been so suddenly put
out of the race, as the Italian had be-
gun to show signs Of extreme fatigue
before the accident. Miller rode his
best in the last part of the race, and
finished first with score Of !, 4O3 miles,
3SS yards. Fisher was second, just thir-
ty miles behind; Chevalier third, Nawn
fourth and Muller fifth. Frederick quit
the race before the finish.

In view of there having been as yet
no definite announcement of the L. A.
W. national circuit and the probability
of the Grand circuit proposed by the
N. c. A. being put through having been
increased by the considerable number
of meets at prominent tracks, for which

Just promulgated by the n. c. A. for
the national championships are worthy
of attention.
The N. c. A. championship rules pro-

Grand circuit meets national cham
