In Paris to Get Bicycles Housed For
the Winter

In paris 10 Oet bicycles HOuSeu TUT
the Winter.
| PARIS, May 13.-An amusing phase
of Partisan life has excited attention
this week owing to the advent of bet
ter weather. For several days past
the state pawnshops have received the
visits of stream of bicyclists, come to
redeem the wheels which they pledg-
ed at the beginning of the winter.
To house bicycle during the incle-
ment season is comparatively costly in
Paris. AS result the ingenious en-
thusiast has found that the cheapest
way out of the difficulty is to confide
his machine to the pawnshop. All he
has to pay is the trifing interest on the
money advanced him.
The expedient, moreover, is as ex-
cellent as it is cheap. The pawnshop
never fs sure that it will not have to
sell the bicycle In order to recover the
loan and consequently it takes the ut
most care of the machines entrusted to
it, carefully housing them in dry
rooms and deeping them we'll oiled and
attended to.
The accommodations of the state
pawnshops have been tested TO the ut
most during the past winter and as the
transactions are far from profitable the
is sorely perplexed by this
demand Oh its services:

For Another Game.

ing their strength in another game with

that they We're not at their best when
they met the high school lads last week,
ana that ii would be only fair to them 10
be accorded another game. The matter
chrystalized yesterday and the follow
ing challenge was sent to Manager Leon
ard of the High school team:
''On behalf of the Y. Nj. c. A foot
ball team, l desire TO respectfully chal-
lenge the High school football team TO
play a match game of football on any date
that you may elect between Thanksgiving
day and Christmas on the following
terms: If the High school wins they may
take 10 per cent of the gate receipts; If
the High school scores but does not win
the game they may take GO per cent of the
receipts: if the High school loses the
game and fails to score they may take 40
per cent of the receipts. If these terms
are not satisfactory We would be pleased
to have a proposition from you. We be-
lieVe that a game between the two teams
would be a great drawing card and sin
cerely hope that we may get together.
The challenge was signed by Manager
AXton and by the coach and captain OF
the eleven, Dana t. Smith. The Chris
tianS are very DESTROYS that the game
should be played. and the terms that they
propose are such as to indicate that they.
