Sled With Hall Hearings.

The latest thing In boys sleds Is bali
bearing bob, made for one or two boys.
This bob has two sets Of runners. like
any double ripper. one under the forward
end of the board. the other under the rear
end These runners are low and clipper
built, and shod with steel rods. The pivot
on the under side OF the forward end OF
the board rests ON ball bearings on the
forward runner, so that that runner can
be turned easily and freely In any direc-
ton. and giving X also free play, SO that
Il can easily accommodate itself to the
surface OF the snow. The after runner is
adjusted on springs, giving that runner
also some play ard accommodation TO the
surface This sled Is guided by turning
the movable front runner. thus saving the
boys shoes from the wear and tear on
them caused by using his feet to steer.
As to IT'S other qualities. 1t is confidently
believed that the bsil-bearing bob will go
the faster and go farther than any other
sled On the hill.-New York Sun.

General Castro has been victorious in several engagements with the Venezuelan troops, the latter les ing heavily. The nature of the nego- tiaticns between the opposing forces is not reported, but the fact that the gov eTnment authorities are treating with he rebel leader adds greatly to the dig nity of the rebellion and is an ac- knowIedgement of CastrC's power with the masses.
