BICYCLING IN THE TYROL.
Eventhe Mountaineers Have Caught the
Fever,
Peto Dailey and his merry men and
Colonel George E. Waring, Jr., com¬
missioner of street cleaning in hew
Vrk City, made a bicycle tour through
the Tyrol last summer. Colonel War-
ing has written for l lie Century two
stories descriptive of his experiences.
In tne second one, ‘‘Bicyi ling Through
the Dolomites,” Colonel Waring says:
We found that the bicycle fever had
reached even to our landlord who \va -
experimenting with an iron-rimmec
wheel over which the sat.die was
ported by a pair of eb.ptlc springs,
L--tried H, and said it went very
well, though not so soft as the “pneu.''
1 lifted it, and did not care to go
ther. I told him it was too heavy. He
said, "Mawknix; muss starker scin”
(That's nothing; you must be
stronger). Probably the cxira weight
of this wheel would not be considered
in fixing the load that a Tyrolese peas¬
ant would carry over the hills from
the fields, and need not bo recorded
as an obstruction to rpor. The whei h,
hero are all much heavier than
and much stronger. They can lie sent
up hill by tho tougher thews that grow
In this land, and for safety in going
down hill they have very effective
brakes. The best brake has two pieces
of rubber, and about two and a half
inches long and three-quarters of an
inch square, which are held fiat, against
the two quarters of lhe tire. It holds
very firmly, and Us friction decs no;
come on the part that is subject to the
greatest wear. It is used, not with a
steady pressure, but with successive
light bquoca's. When ot;o hr comes a'-
customed to it, it gives excellent con
trol to any degree desired- oven to
holding, the machine sto'krtill under
any load and on any grade. Kven the
usual flat brake 1m: a rubber face
which holds better and las::; longer
than metal. My American brakes
were “not in it” on these hills, as com¬
pared with those local wheels which I
rode.
i,.e use. of the brake Is exacted by
law in all towns, and It In almost nnl
vernal on country roads; r.o is the fur¬
nishing of the wheel with a bell, but
the better riders in Innsbruck do not
use it in the city streets. They say
they can make their way safely at a
moderate speed, if the pr•: pic keep on
their way, while if they are disturbed
and made nervous by a bicycle bell,
they are liable to make some unex-
pected movement that may lead to a
collision. 1 remember a case of mti-
tual liodglng at a street crossing in
New York, between m.u clf and a. lady
whom my bell had startled, which
came near being annoying. Perhaps
the custom in Paris of hanging a little
sleigh bell loosely from the handle bar
Is safer. It jingles all the time, some
what to the annoyance of the rider;
but it has a faint horse car suggestion
which keeps the public on the lookout.
Nowhoro In Europe did I se< » tho brutal
quadrupedal “scorching” that Is such
a nuisance and such a danger with us.
Another device 1 found to lie in very
general use in Tyrol. Tills is a snap-
clip for holding tho front wheel in
line with tho machine, so that it may
bo stood against a tree or any other
support without foiling. It i useful
in pushing up hill with tho hand on
the saddle. The direction is changed
by lifting the bind wheel t > right or
left. Tho clip is sot or relem cd In n
moment.
As wo left our lunching place we
found the young tow heads of t ho farm
standing in mute and respectful won¬
derment about our wheels. We gave
them a hit of a ride, two at a time,
an<1 loft them enriched with tlie nitin-
ory of a sensation they had never be-
fore known, and will never repeat—
\ f and never will forget.

intention Was That an increase of B«ye-

tion of the Manufacture ...
•
;
Representatives of practically all
tlje tobacco manufacturers in the
’ the exception of
the cigar . manufacturers, met . at . w Wash- ,
ington Wednesday to protest against
the proposed advance of 2 cents a
pound in the tax on tobacco conte
; plated in the senate amendment to the
tariff bill.
The total tobacco output, exclusive
j of cigars, of the United States is about
I 300,000,000 this amount pounds^ over 2o0,000,000 annually, pounds and ot
was represented.
Resolutions were then unanimously
adopted which briefly cite the injury
! inflicted upon the trade by the fre-
quent changes of the tax rate and pro-
- test against the adoption of the senate
amendment,
The senate committee which has
charge of the tariff bill gave a hearing
l to a delegation of the tobacco mami-
I facturers at the Arlington hotel in the
[ resented evening. by The tobacco committee men were of six— rep¬
a
Messrs. Harry Weissinger, of Louis¬
! ville; 0. B. Hall, Detroit;! 5 . Lorillard,
Jr., New York; John Haines, Winston,
N C.; R. L. Booker, Richmond; E. A.
McAlpin, New York, the chairman of
the tobacco men’s meeting,
; The spokesman was Mr. Weissinger,
j w h 0 presented the case of the tobacco
; men, and at the suggestion of the sen-
■ a tors briefly,
j The contention was that an increase
0 f the internal revenue tax would les-
j j scn the compensation of manufactured
j tobacco, diverting it to the raw ma-
j terials.
That the manufacturers had ad-
j j us tccl their business to the six cent
ta x and would be put to a heavy ex-
j pense to change the sizes of plug and
j packages, a change which would
gre- n y disturb trade if it should bo
made. The only alternative besides
J j reducing plugs and packages would
be to use materials of an inferior
j qua lity that they might sell the quail-
I titles of tobacco at present prices,
An argument upon which stress was
laid was that the effect of increased
taxes on tobacco would be to concen¬
trate tho business in the hands of a few
great firms.
Til REATEXS VENGEANCE.
Havana Newspaper Cots Excited and
Hurls Defiance at Unde Sam.
El Diatio de la Marinia, Havana
newspaper, in a leading editorial says;
“We see in the American newspa-
! P crs evidence that there are certain
social classes in the United States not
sufficiently alive to the importance of
the ad 'ice ‘don’t monkey with the
lion’s tail.”
'“These classes are remarkable for
tlle eagerness with which they invade
jurisdiction in affairs which, like the
i Cuban war, are exclusively the affairs
I °i kpain.
“ Tlie persistence with which they
recognize the belligerency of the in-
1 surgents is crazy and ridiculous. Tho
important conservative interests of
the United States should not forget
that the patience of Spain may soon
become exhausted.
i . The Spanish government has given
abundant proofs of its good will by
ignoring the many inconveniences
that have been caused by resolutions
in congress.
“Those interests ought to be thank¬
ful to us for our abnegation.
“Wo have suffered, but in case the
sword should be unsheathed Spain
loser certainly would not be the heaviest
in the fight.
“Spain has sent 203,000 men to
Cuba to settle a domestic difficulty.
What would she not do iu tlie event of
a foreign war with the nation which
for a century has abused our patience
by ignoring Spanish honor and
chivalry.
“President McKinley should con¬
sider this carefully and if he is to deal
with us as enemies he should take the
advice of an enemy and no longer
trifle with us.”

While your correspondent was in
Clay county last week he witnessed a
fight to a finish that was terrible in all
its details, the belligerents being E.

of Clay county, and Miss Etta John¬
son, a daughter of the Rev. Johnson,
of High Knob. Mr. Cress was drink-

ro P e “Cached to it, Miss Johnson
se i ze< i the ro p e and gave it a jerk,with

and cut lip, which a drenching
a made him very
angry, and he called her “old banjo
back.’ She retaliated by whacking
him over the head with a stick. Cress
j threw started the bucket of water on her and
to run, but before he had eov-
ered a dozen yards he was brought to
the ground by a rock which was
hurled by Miss Johnson with force
and precision that would do credit to
a baseball pitcher. Before lie had

A literary man, table, used to the niceties of expression and fond also of the
pleasures of the in speaking of
TABULES
says: “I couldn’t recommend this remedy as heartily as I do if I didn’t
believe in it. I am not much of a medicine taker. I am opposed to
medicine, on principle. /There ought to be no need of medicine—just
as there ought to be no poverty—but there is. If people lived right
they would be well. Sunshine, air,.exercise, fun, good food—plenty and
not too much—are the best medicines, tiie natural ones; but men are tied
to their desks, and women to their home cares, and both are tied to fash¬
ion. Civilized existence is artificial and needs artificial regulators. I
recommend Ripans Tabules—and take them myself. I know they are both
harmless and effective. (I know what they are made of.) They are the
best remedy I know anything about for headaches, or indigestion, or
biliousness, or any sort of sluggishness in the system. And they are in
the handiest possible shape to carry in the pocket.”
