ARIz 0NA'S AGATE BRIDGE.
A NATURAL CURIOSITY.

In the "Petrified Forest" of Arizona
there is a natural bridge, across mar
row canyon consisting of the petrified,
or agatized, trunk Of tree, III feet
in length. The petrified trees in this
region are believed to have f1ourished
in the Triassic age. Most Of them are
allied to the Norfolk island pine (Aru-
caria) of to-day, but some resemble
the red cedar. Prof. o. G. s. Carter
thinks that the petrifcation was due
to soluble silicates derived from the
decomposition of the feldspathic ce-
nent found in the sandstone of that
ocality.

WHEELMEN PROTEST
Object to Paying More Than SO
Cents a Year for Tags.

The wheelmen of the city do not be-
lieve that they should be charged more
than 80 cents a year for tags emitting
them to ride on the bicycle paths, and to
make this evident more than 1000 of them
have signed a petition demanding that
this price be fixed.
An association has been formed and one
big meeting held On March 81, in FEEDER
alton hail. another meeting will be held,
at the same place, to which all riders
are invited. 1t is expected that an or
ganization of sufficient strength will be
formed to secure the reforms asked for.
Among these is the demand that the
tags not only be reduced to so cents each,
but that they be placed On sale at the
places of business of the various bicycle
dealers and that the dealers be given a
commission of so cents on each SIS worth
sold, and that the paths be properly po-
Iced.
A committee of one from each ward has
been appointed as follows:
