pedal forward furiously. They come
down the slope with bewildering
rush, and keeping up their pedaling
make the circuit Of the loop, going
around and around several times.
The apparatus consists Of two cir
cles fifteen feet in diameter, hung on
ball bearing hubs supported by three
heavy iron standards. Each circle
weighs 1000 pounds and the standards
1000 pounds, making the weight Of
the entire apparatus about 5000
pounds.
The rims, or floors Of the circles are
about three feet in width, and it is on
these that the men ride These rims
are attached to the hubs by dozen
thin steel spokes. In addition to the
two large circles there is small track
connected with them. A pulley is at
tached to the hub Of each large circle,
and belts running through these are at
tached to counter-shaft on the floor.
The countershaft operates two small
figures mounted on miniat ure bicycles.
When the riders in the big wheels COW

the small track once, this track being
six feet in diameter.

race and an example to some of his

Although only 46 years Of age, Bry-
ant is an excellent example of the old
ante-bellum type of negro. When
scarcely grown to manhood he leased
tract of wooded land in Georgia for
a period Of five years This lease was
backed up only by nerve and deter
mination to make something more Of
himself than simply a farm hand. He
cut the timber from his land and haul
ed it to the nearest towns, s and II
miles distant. But cutting and selling
off the timber he not only cleared the
land and made it ready for cultivation,
but obtained some ready money with
which he built four cabins on the
cleared land and began the operation
of a five-horse farm.
At the expiration of his fiye-year
lease he bargained for the farm, hay-
ing saved enough money to make a
large payment on the purchase Thus

We have made very great progress
s. In the building up of our navy and
have just reason for pride in what has
been accomplished. We have reached
third rank in the number of ships and
tonnage and within the next few years
will probable be in second place. But
1t appears that in some respects we
have not been as careful in providing
for the efficiency of the naval estab-
nshment as we should have been.
There Is a lack Of qualified officers for
the ships that are going into commits
sion and there is not an oversupply Of
seamen In short, the existing condi-
tons suggest that in the event of war
the navy would be found so deficient
In vital respects that only part Of it
would be available.
