NEWS OF THE WHEELMEN.
A Movement for a Popular Subscription
Monument to Harry Fixes.

movement has been made that will ap-
peal TO cyclists everywhere. whether follow
ers of the racing sport or merely road riders.
1t Is that of erecting at the grave of the late
Harry D. Elkes at Glens Falls n. " an APP
propriate stone monument to he purchased
by popular subscription. Nothing OF this
sort ever has been done by cyclists. and it
Is considered that no more fitting subject for
honor by cyclists generally ever existed.
The move was first suggested by some
OF the fellow riders Of the middle distance
champion, who was killed on the track Mt
Boston on Decoration Day when riding miles
in faster time than ever was done before,
and 1t was taken up by track managers and
the officials of the National Cycling Associa-
ton. Elkes was a rider who was admired
as much for his amiable personality and high
moral character as for his wonderful speed
and great pluck.
He was known everywhere as clean"
racing man and was generally popular. In
a circular issued by the committee the point
ia made that the erection of monument as
proposed will rebound TO the credit of cyclists
generally, besides being n tribute to the de-
ceased. and an appeal Is made for every one
to contribute however small the sum. Money
boxes for contributions OF small change will
be put UP at the various tracks and at other
places

The Cost of a ConcIave.

"What is the cost of COnclaveW
The question was asked yesterday OF
well-known clergyman, and this was
his reply:
That Of 1873, which resulted in the
elections of Leo Kill, involved two
bills, one Of $11,754.2S for carpenters
and masons' work, locksIniths, paint
ers, gas, glaciers, and electric bells;
the other of $4,000 for fitting up the
Slstine Chapel. But this was dirt
cheap compared with the figures for
some preceding conclaves. That Of
1881, when Gregory XVI. was elected,
cost $144, 756.1S, and the elections OF
Plus VIII. and Leo XII. were respon-
sible for $127,7O2 and sos, 425, respec-
lively. These conclaves all took place
during the last century; but before
that period conclaves were both long
err and more frequent, so that it was
found necessary on several occasions
to limit beforehand the expenditure
on a papal election. Thus, Alexander
VIII. limited the number Of the func-
tionaries of the Conclave and cut down
their emoluments and perquisites. -

A Murderer's Choice.

In Greece the death penalty is said
TO be often pronounced, but the diff
ficulty Of obtaining executioners was
for a long time almost insuperable.
It was at last surmounted by giving
to a murderer the choice between his
own death or accetance Of the Office
of permanent executioner. The man
lives alone in an old tower built by
Venetians on an islet outside the port
of Nauplla, where necessaries are taken
to him every morning by the boatman,
who is careful to exchange no word
with him. Twice a year a steamer
calls for him and his instruments OF
death, and he leaves upon a tour OF
executions. -Golden Penny.

Nathan b. Moore of Bingham is ons
| Of the few old-time trappers and
VIC "dsmen remaining In Maine. IL rs
eighty-fifth year, he is still hale and
hearty and is now busy making birch
bark canoes, In which fast disappear
ms art he is an adept.
Ever since the age Of IA, when he
killed his first moose and began his
career as a trapper and woodsman, he
has spent most Of his time in the
woods, depending upon the forest for
his support. Many Of his conclusions
based on his long experience contra
dict common beliefs.
For instance, he asserts that caribou
did not leave Maine because OF scare
ity of food, as is commonly supposed
but rather because they were driven
away by the pugnacity OF the DUCK
deer. The caribou, he says, is peace.
full animal. while the buck deer Is just
the opposite. AS the deer Increased,
they pestered the caribou more and
more until, finally, the latter soushr
another home.
Then, again, Mr.. Moore says there
are four distinct varieties Of moose IN
Maine, a fact not generally known
the long-legged moose, the gray moose,
the black moose and the bell moose
and a record Of 276 moose killed has
given him somewhat Of an opportunity
to investigate. Most Of these moose
were run down on snowshoes, and Dir.
Moore says he has never seen moose
that he could not catch with right con-
dltions on the first trial, although some
would run five and some twenty miles.
And, finally, Mr. Moore believes the
bull moose to be the most dangerous
an nal in the woods.
81 can truthfully say" he says, that
the danger of a conflict with a bull
moose has not been magnified. They
are the most dangerous animals in the
Maine woods.
THE moose is not only cunning, a
vicious fighter and revengeful, but
combined with this, he has enormous
power and the quickness Of a cat. He
can kick with his hind feet, strike With
his front feet and WELD his head ike
an Indian war club when opportunity
offers. Even the cows should be
avoided"
Here is a piece Of advice from him
to hunters and sportsmen as to being
careful about shooting in the woods:
II have hunted the forests for over
seventy years, but never allowed N.Y.
self to take my rife to my face until
I saw enough to know whether it was
man or wild animals that l was pre-
pairing to shoot at.
"Often when I was away in the
wild forest, where l could not think Of
a mans being, I would hear some
thing coming that l was sure was a
wild beast, and l would pull back the
hammer of my rifle and step behind a
tree and wait, and presently the
boughs would part and out would step
4 man"
He gives his game record as 276
moose, 200 caribou, 100 bear and small
game without number.
