everything that concerns the wheel there has
been decided awakening. Long distance rid
ing has been taken up by the strenuous minded
and nearly every paper records some extensive
tour undertaken accomplished. Several
honeymoon journeys covering hundreds of miles
were taken this spring. a couple of riders are
grinding across the continent in the hope OF
looping a few hours from the New York-San
Francisco record made eleven years ago, and

GEORGE M. CoHAN WEBS AGAIN.
First Marriage Declared Invalid by Authori-
ties of the Church.

George NJ Cohan, the comedian. and Miss Agnes
Nolan were married at Freehold, N. J., yesterday
by J. S. White Justice of the peace. They re-
turned to town for dinner, and in the evening Mr.
Cohan usual on the New Amsterdam
roof in THE Honeymooners" Next Thursday tho
comedian will be twenty-ni years old. His bride
IS twenty-five She member of of Mr..
Cohans companies for three years. but 1t is
stood she has quit the stage.
II learned yesterday that the Roman Catho-
lie Church had found Mr. Cohnns first marriage
invalid. His first wife Miss Ethel Levey,
q vaudeville actress, whom he married In 1885, She
divorced him last February, and soon after came
rumors that he was to marry Miss Nolan. The
pair had the blessing of the parents of both sides
first. because they were both OF the faith and,
second, because there a probability that the
Church would find the young comedians first mar
rage invalid because of Irregularities that always
grow out of marriages between Catholics and non
Catholics.
It said that in this the authorities of
the Church found that Miss LeVey had never been
baptized, and. according to the Roman Catholic
Church, there can be valid marriage of n Ro-
man Catholic and unbaptized person.

ing pages, and the large attendance at these
meets fully warrant the consideration shown.
One of the notable signs. too, IS TO be found
in the wheeling parties that have been made up
to tour abroad. Such jaunts We're too common
to mention individually few years ago. and at
the present rate soon Will be again.
Whether for health or pleasure economy of
time or money. the wheel is entitled to an enthu-
siastic welcome, with every man and woman on
the national committee of reception. Children
are not mentioned. for they have never been dis
loyal. No right-minded child will consent to be
brought up without a wheel.
To sum the matter UP. the wheels are better
and cost less money than they did few years
ago. The bicycle the original good roads
missionary, and it is due to its influence, pri-
marily, that to-days riders find better going all
over the country. So there are plenty of rea-
sons why we all should wheel again. and not
one to the contrary.

THE BICYCLE AGAIN

That the use Of the bicycle has doubled and

no more comment On the new conditions than
has been shown. is pretty good evidence of the
size OF the country and Its capacity for absorb
ing an enormous output without attracting
much attention
The statement published widely some time
ago that more than two and a half million
wheels are IN general use in Great Britain,
rather gives key TO the situation over here.
Since the lowest point in wheel manufacture
on this side Of the water was touched, some
seven OF eight years ago, the annual output has
grown by leaps and bounds. More than half a
