The Bicycle
From the Springfield Republican.

4 tUfH tue SprinXueIU NepUDIc1n.
Bicycling 10 said to be holding its own in
England much better than in this country.
perhaps partly because the roads are better
and the distances smaller, and partly be-
cause the English do not tire OF a new
craze 30 quickly as Americans. There was
a great slump tn England In 1897. but since
then there have been signs OF Improvement
and the demand for new wheels last year
was larger than in any previous year since
the height Of the boom. The features OF the
year have been the complete triumph Of
the free wheel" with coaster brake. the
growing use OF the triple gear for hill climb

many of the conditions they would enjoy in
Wild state. yet they also have the advan-

banks Of the ponds are filled with hundreds
of the shiny creatures. At night the min
gled chorus, or frog concert" as the
neighbors call 1t, can be heard blocks away.
The frog like almost every living creature,
grows to recognize a familiar voice and to
hop across the yard when his particular
name is called. They like the touch Of the
human hand, and several which have at
tained unusual size, and are therefore kept
for pets, report regularly to be fed by Mr..

Renascence of the Banjo.

SfoIn Inc chicago Tribune.
1t is cheering to observe that the banjo,
after long period Of neglect and indiffer-
ence, due in part to the decadence of the
negro minstrel's art and in part to the ad-
vent of tinkling mandolins and strumming
piano appendages. which are much easier to
learn is now entering upon a new era. 1t
