Several hundred people were treated to
some very fair bicycle racing at Licking
ton park yesterday afternoon None of
the existing records suffered for the trials
and no very remarkable performances
were given, but the appearance Of several
of the old time favorites on the track
caused no little enthusiasm among the
devotees of the wheel.
The races marked the opening of a
weeks events which will be run off aft
ernoon and evening during The balance of
the week. The feature of the evening
races will be a six-night professional
event. which will be started this evening.
In addition to this Col. Ellis offers d.
version to his patrons in the hair lifting
performances of his "high divers" The
races were run under the direction of
the N. C. A, and it was noticed that
several popular amateurs who have in
the past ridden L. A. w. rode N. C. A.
yesterday for the first time The track
was in anything but the best condition
and was very rough in places, and the
turns were complained Of severely by
some of the riders.
The novice race was started with a field
of seven. including j. Conley, A. s. Mich
olson. H. w. HenZe, Chas. Woll, Frank
Dubay, E. J. Schwartz and Hans Mikkle-
son. Dubay winning, followed by
named. The two-mile professional
was the star event Of the aft
ernoon. At the start John S.
Johnson took the pole, followed by Beck
err, Schwartz and Einar Lee. The first
mile was rolled eff in 2:32. The next three
laps the men hit it up and Becker, Bird
and Johnson shook the bunch on the back
difficult to tell which man had won. There
was not half a wheels length difference
in the position of the three men. Bird
had a little the best of it, Johnson got
second place and Becker third.
The two-mile amateur was a we'll con-
tested event. Chester Clarkson. of Min

pace at the start, with Niederhofer hug

the first mile was completed the men
were riding in the following order: j..
T. Wagner, Chester Clarkson, Paul May

a long sprint on the fifth lap and it look
as If he was trying to lose the field, but

his wheel and Niederhofer. Paul Mayer
secured third position. Time, 5:13.

COST OF LIVING.
A Comparison of the Various Capitals
OF Europe Shows Vienna to BE
the Cheapest.

An investigation into the compara-
tive cost of living at the various Euro
pean capitals resulted in the following
facts: AT Vienna the prices of most
articles of food are lowest; at Madrid
they are dearer than in any other cap
ital, and such things as bread, meat,
sugar and coal are very expensive in
deed. At st. Petersburg also the price
of bread is still considered luxury
above the means of the working classes
Next TO Vienna Brussels is an inexpen-
sive city; Paris is little higher in the
scale, while London is still more ex-
pensive. An American spends on an
average $50 year for food, French
man $4S, a German $45, a Spaniard
S33, an Italian $24 and a Russian
$40. Of meat the American eats
100 pounds a year, the Frenchman
81 pounds, the German "a pounds,
the Italian % pounds and the
Russian 81 pounds. OF bread the Amer
lean consumes $50 pounds, the French
man $40 pounds, the German $50
pounds, the Spaniard 4so pounds, the
Italian 400 pounds and the Russian 655
pounds. Outside of Europe, in times of
peace, Manila is cheaper to live in than
any other city in the world.

HE DID GREAT THINGS.

All About His Exciting
Adventures.

What kind of time are you having
this summer, jimmy"
"Oh, out of sight! The family all
away. Father was the last to GO. He
went north on business and left me to
take care of the house. Oh, yes, I'm
strong on that, you know. Haven't
been there since he left. That makes
me think I'd better go around tonight
he's due to-day"
James was right. His father had re-
turned and was sitting on the porch
smoking cigar when his son arrived,
says the Detroit Free Press.
well, how have you been getting
along for the last week?" inquired the
father.
''Oh, very well, considering" said
James, assuming the confident air of
the man who has done his duty. "a few
accidents aboxt the house, but fixed
them all right"
"Yes?"
"Yes-had the burglars one night.
Lucky thing I was here-they might
have stolen half the house. And the
gas pipe sprung leak, too. But dis
covered that in time. And the rats!
Why, we'd have been overrun with 'em
If hadn't been here to clean them Quit"
Him! that's strange" said his father.
Il haven't heard any burglars, nor
smelled any gas, nor heard any rats,
and I've been here all the week. You
know, l didn't take that business trip
after all."

Greatest Arsenal ana Armory

Rock Island, ILL.,, claims distinction
as the site of the largest United States
arsenal and armory. 1t was first occu-
pied by the government as a frontier
fort in 1915 and has ever since grown
steadily in Importance. In 1910 it was
made an ordnance depot and in 1852
Rock Island arsenal was instituted
During the civil war il was used as a
military prison. A large proportion of
the supplies and ammunition used dur
ing the recent war with Spain were
turned out by the 5000 men employed
in the government shops connected
with the arsenal, In less than five
months, while the war was in progress,
the expenditures for supplies and
wages aggregated S2,60O,o00, and the
articles manufactured ranged from
breechloading field guns to tin cups.
The last congress, pleased with the
work done during the war, has ordered
the establishment at the armory of

ers were excited by story from Ra-
cine, Wis, which told how a woman
went into dry goods store to buy
spool of thread and rendered in pay
ment worn silver dollar, saying that
she did not know whether it was good
or not. The clerk saw the date ''1s04"
on the coin, put it into his pocket, and
threw a new silver dollar into the cash
drawer. He was offered $1,000 for the
old coin by dealer, but refused to sell.
In this way the story got out and the

1904 dollar. Both men have employed
lawyers to defend their titles, and now
the woman shopper is preparing to
bring suit for the possession of it.

Brooklyn, N. Y, has made study of
the subject. He has convinced himself

The prince of Wales, while shooting
in Austria, caused temporary trouble
and ultimately made the fortune of the
nearest ladies' tailor, by stipulating
that all ladies receiving invitations to
shoot with him should come in correct
shooting costumes. This, in Austria,
consists of a short skirt coming half
way between the knees and ankle and a
short, tight-itting jacket, with waist
coat of another color, boots of brown
leather and Tyrolese hat with feath-
er. None of the ladies had just these
clothes at hand, and the tailor had to
double his force to supply them.

1t is a fact that many persons do not
believe the disease at the National Sol
diers' Home Is. or was, yeilow-fever. And
among them are some medical men.
The failure Of the national authorities
10 trace the source of the disease has
something to do with this doubling A.
first 1t was said the fever was brought TO
the home by man who had been at
Santiago. and who, upon his return.
stayed at the home some days. Bat the
newspapers have published a statement
from the veteran I'm question, in which
he repudates the suggestion that IL would
have been possible for him 70 have intro
duced the fever there.
Again, suspicion was raised that the
fever might have been introduced by
means OF the Reina Mercedes. a sunken
Spanish ship which had been raised and
brought into Virginia waters But none
of the men on board Of that vessel have
suffered from yellow-fever, and there Is
no proof. 80 far as we know. that any
old soldiers had been on board OF her.
SO the back trail OF the fever has been
lost entirely. unless indeed, the govern
ment officials have evidence which they
have not disclosed.
~ IA matter Of comment that a large
