A E.NA-OEIAI, RAGE.

Newark, x. J., OIt 22.-A clever ride in the twenty y-hve-mite race was the feature of yesterdays bicycle meet oil the board track at ,Wailsburg. Un- usual interest centered in this contest because of ! report t;iat Bob Walthour of Atlanta, Frank Kramer of East Orange and Charles Hadheld of New ark had put up tri-cornered job to gain lap by pacing each other, and spoil for athe other contestants the chance. of winning the first three prizes If any such plot was matched it did not materialize. Two other riders, however, ''jumped' the bunch, and by clever riding and pacing, rode up to the others again about three miles further on, one lap to the good. The two were Archie McEnchern of Toronto and Oscar Aaronson of Brook lyn. Their dash was made just after the contestants in the race had slack ed up at the ffteen-mlle mark, at which point, as well as at five, ten and twenty miles. the leader was en- titled to prize of $10. After the two flyers had got back into the bunch again, the others tried to leave them but failed. A little less than two miles from the finish Aaronson had a pune ture, but plugged along on the rim, displaying remarkable grit. Two laps from the finish his wheel got out of llelter temporarily and threw him off He remounted and finished second, MeEachern winning first prize. Will Coburn of Newark won the avermile prize, Bob Wnlthour of Atlanta the ten-mile and Arthur " Ross of Har rison tEe tfteen.

: IIOEGANST GREAT FEAT., ,
He Breaks the Worlds Record at
 Putting the Shot. .

IuttlnS the SnOl..
 New York, Oct 22-At the dual games of the St Bartholomew Athletic club and Star Athletic club st Celtic park yesterday afternoon Dennis Hoigan brought the open athletic sea son to close by eclipsing the Itlneli- can record for putting the lG-poUnl shot of 47 feet, made by George R. Gray at Chicake on September 1G, 1895. The Irish. champions best ef- fort was 1T feet 4as inches, and his performances were so evenly balanced and the worst put of his five attempts measured 44 feet 6 inches. Two weeks ago in an exhibition at the Pastinle Athletic club games Horgan put a shot more than IS feet, but the missile was several ounces light and could not go on the record books anyway. as the performance was not made in open competition. Among spectators on the t intield yesterday was Joe Gray, broth CT of the holder of the previous record and himself the indoor metropolitan champion. With regard to the put that ralegated hit; brothers. figures to [ obscurity Gray said:s sTEu.a ..-,f. . | It was the cieanest effort of any and although l was dpyoting my ait tention particularly to his manner of delivering the shot and did not take much notice of his feet it appears to me that my brothers record was. fair E ly9 beaten. and that Horgan is capa- blet, of doing. considerably, better than |! his winning put" ,gss..,..s,,a i,-..s...-. $.

EQUAL TO ELECTRIC LIGHT.
Common IIoroxene oil May s&6n De- coH,e.the Most Powerful of
 !H Illuminn2ts. t%-

Kerosene oil can now be used to produce light equal to electricity by exploding it with air under compres- sion in cylinder for less cost than the same volume of light can be produced through the medium of the house lamp" said Engineer John A. Secor, in a recent lecture before the New York Railroad club, reports the Philadelphia Medical Journal: This is another monument along the line of progress.
 ."The earth" continued Mir. Secor, "has yielded up millions of tons of coal to furnish power, and when We look at the enormous waste of this most val uabie of natures gifts we cannot feel that we have done vel. for we have lost not less than 93 per cent. of its value as measured by heat units. This extrav- agant waste has caused engineers to seek 3 better means of using our ther- nal powers. We can now turn coal into gas using gas direct in the cylin- der of the engine without the use of the boiler and its attendant evils and with less loss, but still we have only exchanged the boiler plant for the gas plant. But petroleum oil, which is pro- Gueed by billions of gallons and fur nishes. in it's Gistillation, s5 per cent. of what is known as kerosene oil, may be used in combination with the ambient air directly in the cylinder of the en- zine, to drive machinery. automobiles, boafs. to fight and ventiIafe our homes and for all purposes where power is needed. Its thermo dynamic value ia greater than any known liquid fuel"
