COMING REVIVAL OF
 CYCLING FOR WOMEN.
.a .aAAAAAANNANNNAANN


 The word is now that cycling is begin ming to be the vogue again. With few who understood It's benefits and pleasures 1t never went out. One of Americas leading millionaires. Archie Huntington, nephew and heir of Collis P, has continued to be devoted to the bicycle in defiance of fashion. His beautiful young wife is as fond of 1t as he is, and the two together make frequent trips awheel.
 In the interest of faminine health and beauty culture let us be glad of the re- instatement of the bicycle in popular favor. For promoting the type of female beauty which is now the ideal hardly anything Is equal to the cycle. probably not even golf. Fifty years ago the con- sumptive type of womanly beauty was the favorite That has quite gone out and the strong, noble Venus of Milo, Winged Victory style of girl is the fashion, hap oily for the future of the American race.
 To develop the present fashion in beau- ty health Is the first essential. and to get that active outdoor exercise, and plenty of it, s is the means. Cycling strengthens a weak heart If girls heart thumps wildly when she attempts to cycle uphill its muscles are lax and want toning up. If she continues the exercise moderately, not violently, these muscles will become so strong they will send great floods of warm, rich blood to her cheeks and all her muscles. Good wind is an absolute necessity to successful cycling. Brisk pedaling makes the lungs demand more and more air to purify the blood as it comes faster and faster through the veins to get great drinks of oxygen. Royal trainer of eye. ear and nerve 1t is too. Every sense must be alert. One must watch the track ahead like hawk to keep from running over dogs and babies; one must snatch light ming glances at flying crossroads to keep | from being run over. Then. too to be a | successful cycler one must dress loosely | and comfortably as to the feet and waist To sum up the physical benefits of l cycling the hearts action Is immensely strengthened, the lungs expand giving the full chest demanded in the present beauty cult. the muscles of the lower limbs increase in size and power, eye and ear are trained to constant alertness, and the nerves become steady and strong. These physical acquisitions are the very ones women young and old most need When 1t comes to the effect on the mind of this skimming like a bird OCT hill and dale then cycling rises into the realm of poetry. No amusement ever in vented gives the exhilaration, the positive exaltation, that thrills the soul speeding through the country upon a flying bicycle Do you grow weary? You stop and rest at will. Does a patch of rare flowers, a glorious landscape attract you? Off and enjoy. You are free. You are glad just to be alive. All the woes the pains, oi your conventional life you have Lsf; be- hind you. You have dropped them and

fled away from them when you mounted the flying steel steed Happy? This is joy. This is real life as God meant 1t to be. especially if you have one or two of your dearest and best to enjoy it with you.
 Inventors did not stop making improve ments on the bicycle when it went tenn porarily out. They kept on. though wo- mR stopped wheeling. Now the lady who goes in for 1t again will find waiting for her a chainless machine with a cush- ion frame, coaster brake and spring forks. The niggling jar annoying to some riders of the old machine Is less perceptible in the new one, while 1t runs so easily that a woman of average strength and endu- rance will find no trouble in travelling sixty miles a day.
 We cant all have automobles-at least not just yet-but there is still our good cid open air friend the bicycle.

EDNA HALL AGAIN.

One Report Has Her i'm Denver, An
other I'm New York.
A young women, supposed to Edna Hall,
who astonished the citizens of Indianapolis
about a year ago by appearing on the
streets in a khaki uniform on the back Of
a horse which wore overalls, jumped on
and off street cars like a man, and cut up
all kinds of capers, is giving the citizens of
Denver. Col, a repetition Of her Indian
apolis performance, it is said.
Under the name of Mrs. Trellis Gaylord.
in the Colorado city, she has created all
kinds of excitement, and finally she man.
aged to fall from a street car and was
taken to the Emergency Hospital. She
claimed that she had been pushed from
the platform of the car and had been
robbed of her pocketbook and a railroad
ticket to San Francisco while she lay un-
conscious on the pavement, and asked that
the street car company make her losses
good. While in this city Miss Hall caused
great comment by her strange doings, and
finally locked up by the police and
later sent out Of the city.
At the police station ii Is said that Edna
Hall is in New York city at the present
woman in Denver is another person, who
heard of Miss Halls antics here. and was
greatly impressed by the sensation a repe-
titiOn might cause, so of course she started
a little show for herself, 1t is believed.
One of the teachers in the public schools
in this city received a letter from Miss Hall
only day or so ago. in which the young
woman said that she was attending a
nurses training school in New York and
was making excellent progress

BURLY NEGRO RAN AMUCK
WIN. PERRY SCARED BLACK MEN
NEARLY WHITE IN A DIVE.
At Police Station 1t Took Three Men
to Subdue HiEi-Murder Mar
rOwIy Ayerted.

At Manters barrel house, on Indiana
avenue, last night, fight took place that
might have ended in a murder had Bicycle
smen Askins and Duncan not arrived on the
scene in the nick of time. They arrested
William Perry. a colored man. and locked
him UP at the police station on a charge of
carrying concealed weapons
Perry had long-bladed knife in his
pocket, and the blade was onened, ready
for a little butchering. On account of
Perry's bad reputation he had all OF the
frequenters of Mr. Mantels booze palace"
scared almost white, and the fright was
working on some of the colored men in
such a way that a desperate free-for-all
fight was about to begin when the police
entered. So many colored men crowded
around the police and pushed and pulled at
them that a fast wagon call was sent in
to the police station, and several police
men in the patrol wagon went at a gallop
to the Indiana-avenue resort, where the
crowd was soon dispersed. The man who
stabbed Perry could not be found and his
name could not be learned from any of the
''barfiies" who witnessed the cutting af-
fray. All the colored men in the saloon
and the rev whites who were there re-
fused to say word that would enlighten
the police.
Perry has figured in several bad fights
during the last few years, and is a WELL
known police character. Two years ago he
was shot in the forehead in a fight at
BuckHer's resort on Indiana avenue. and
some time later he WIS shot in the leg in
drunken row at Archie Greenhouses dive.
After he was placed behind the bars at the
police station last night he became unruly
and attempted to beat all his fellow-pris-
oners His yelling and pounding on the
iron doors of the cellroom could be heard
a block away from the station house.

difficulty succeeded in placing. the burly
colored man in the dungeon. where he
walls. Even in there he kicked and yelled
until it was necessary to use force to make
him quiet. Perry is considered one of the
toughest colored men who ever chose this
city as a home, and he will be given a
hearing in the Police Court this morning.

is the starting point in the system, in con-
struction as well as In operation. Munich
pal progress is well near impossible with
out responsible, efficient, honest govern
ment, and government of this kind is Well
near impossible under the unbusineSs-llke
and irresponsible political juggling tolerated
in many benighted cities and towns where
more consideration is given 10 an engineer 5
training in ward politics than TO his techni-
cal training and experience, where the brand
of partisanship is given more consideration
than the value and ability of the men in
the work to be done. Happily. these url-
worthy considerations are no longer domi-
nent in the most progressive cities, but they
still found the barnacles of a bad
system clinging TO the less progressive and
most inefficiently governed cities. When
city brings to its people the facilities that
give them equal advantage with the best
equipped centers of population, 1t will at
tract others who seek the best locations,
it will lead to broader realization of the good
things of life, it will stimulate civic pride
and when a swelling sense of superiority
takes possession of a people who sincerely
feel that they have city To be proud OF,
then and not until then is the ambitious
community moving toward success.
