Motorcycles
by GEORGE T1rea

II
A motorcycle is . bicycle with
pandemonium attachment, and is dC
signed for the especial use of mechar
ical geniuses, daredevls and lunatics
The motorcycle is equipped with
motor small enough 10 be mt in
large pocket and loud enough To FIJI
coliseum comfortably. This motor i
connected with the rear wheel of tb
bicycle, and when it is in the moo,
will revolve the wheel with tremen
dous speed. thus causing the bicycle I,
proceed from hither to Won over bug
gies. pedestrians. fences and smai
outbuildings.
A motorcycle is really a miniature
automobile with full sized noise, smell
and dirt output. 1t is not started by
cranking. however, but pedaling the
whole machine along the road until the
motor emerges from its coma and gets
on the job. An autOmobilist can be
detected by his vast overhanging
shoulders and calloused hands. A
motorcyclist, however, may have arms
like pipestems, but his legs are seven
sizes too large for him.
A motorcycle is not as comfortable
as camel or lumber wagon, but it
is very swift, and there is nothing that
feels more like flying than to ride a
large barytone motorcycle over the
country roads at fifty miles an hour,
leaping lightly from bump-except to
leave the machine when it has struck
rock and to soar swiftly through the
unstable atmoshere until some jagged
section of the United States interferes
with further progress Motorcycles
are very useful and have almost ami
hilated distance and cheap clothes.
They should be ridden in costume, ex-
cept by very wealthy or careless men.
A pair of leather pants with asbestos
lining and a two bushel hip pocket for
tools, padded vest, heavy gloves, a
pair of goggles, and nose and shin
guards make a tasty and useful rig for
the cyclist. Dressed in this fashion
the enthusiast can enjoy himself to the
full as he caroms from tree to tree and
gorges himself with dust, oil and ex-
citement.
Motorcycles are not as fatal to Pc
destrians as automobiles, because thew
can only run over him with two
wheels. But they should be treated
with respect at all times and should
not be interfered with when in hurry.
Marvellous records are made by in
trepid mahouts who have driven large
motorcycles ninety
miles on board track, and most OF
the way up the golden stairs in one
hour by the clock.
Motorcycles are much cheaper than
automobiles, and there seems to be no
practical remedy for this, and the in.
dustry is unfortunately not in the
hands of a trust. 4 good machine can
be purchased for $50. However. if
the devotee does not possess $3.50 he
can get almost as good results by
drinking little lubricating oil. inhal.
ing from a vacuum cleaner and setting
off two bushels of frecrackers between
his legs.

Portland Plans Auto Races

Portland, through the Portland
Automobile club. is promoting an auto
mobile race meet; the events are
scheduled for July 9 and 10.
This is the first automobile race
meet of such magnitude that Portland
has yet attempted and upon the out.
come of this meet hangs the future of
the game in Oregon.
Santa Monica. Indianapolis, Savan-
nah and host of other American cities
have received thousands of dollars in
national publicity through their auto
mobile races. Oregon and the North
west can get the same results if this
sport, the most thrilling 10 the cate
CORY of the outdoor sports, is encour-
aged. This meet will test its financial
possibilities there.

Where tho Guns Kick Hard.

Duck shooting at an altitude of IA
600 feet. on the Junin pampa, along
the shore of the lake Of that name, is
q sport that can be followed in Peru.
Very peculiar effects are noted in this
rarefed region. probably the highest
altitude for this sport In the world.
The guns kick viciously and the shot
does not scatter promptly. making
long shots successful This phenome-
non Is due to the lack Of density Of the
air. which Is only about eight pounds
to the square inch against fifteen at
sea level. Another Interesting fact Is
that the ducks have no tishy taste, as
fsh do not exist In this altitude.

with the little son of the owner in the
wagon. the auto started in pursuit, the
hope being TO overtake the team before
it reached the summit Of the mountain
road and started down the grade on the
other side.
1t was a spectacular race for awhile,
but the auto crept up on the fleeing
horses and overlook them on the climb
up the hill.

its middle. they see vast stretches or
tunnels in all directions. Two yawl'
ing mouths confront them from one
direction, aad into these black spaces
the eye cannot pierce. In another

northward the tunnel is lighted with

inch of the way.
The visitors first impression is
that these sewers must have been
modelled expressly for soma mythical

clean as new pins and the walls are
rounded and shine like white plates.
There is space in this particular tun.
mel for two railroad trains TO pass
each other. A brick path runs on
either side OF the rapidly Rowing
water in the middle, like two tow.
paths on a canal. That rapid streams
of water is really the sewer water
from the residences of a quarter OF 4
million people in the fashionable
northwest. 1t races through the tun-
mel on its way, to be thrown forcibly
by the pumps 10 the outfall some
miles down the historic Potomac
river. One of the beauties OF this
system is that the water runs rapidly
and noiselessly through the sewer5
and tunnels. 1t has not time to stop
anywhere. and in that way cannot
become offensive. The 200 miles of
this system are always in apple.pie
