CYCLING NEWS & GOSSIP. * -0-
CYCLING NEWS & GOSSIP. -0- Don't pedal hard through greasy mud. o When encountering a patch of muddy slime, don't flounder but keep cool, steer straight, and let the machine run easy. Resist the temptation to show off" when riding a free-wheel." No men are so quick to tot one up as wheelmen. A free-wheel enthusiast, writing in the Bazaar Cyclists Supblemen t says, the flight of the free-wheel resembles the peculiar dipping flight of the swallow, and that this noiseless swooping movement is its chief charm. The sober Cyclist is guilty of the following:- Ob, does not a meeting like this make amend "— as the patch said to the puncture." The fact that both the "Stanley" and National" cycle shows are to run concurrently, makes the work of those whose duties are to review the exhibits very arduous. Cyclists,however,aregladto be able to visit both institutions and get this duty over within the fortnight. It seems strange to write of the shows which are a winter institution whilst the sun, is still high in the heavens and, except for the withered leaves in the hedgerows, there is little to herald the approach- ing dissolution of summer. However, autumn is the tourists' mpnth, and the season does not really end for the rider until September is well out. Interest is being revived in the question of spring or anti-vibratory front forks and, no doubt, at the shows there will be some machines shewn specially designed to prevent vibration from becoming imparted through the handlebars. The ordinary cyclist,however,is content with the anti-vibration of a good pneumatic tyre. The Dunlop tyre is known as a vibration absorber, and this quality is probably due to the extreme flexibility of the inner lining and resilience of the tyre as a whole. Accounts of cycle accidents always have a certain amount of fascination for the wheelman and this not because of any morbid craving, but simply that he may ponder on the causes which led up to the disaster, and speculate what he would have done in similar circumstances. One of an extraordinary character is reported to have taken place among the Dublin mountains, and, but that it is vouched for by credible witnessess, would give rise to a certain measure of sceptisism. A party of four cyclists, one of whom was the ex- president of the Irish Cycling Association, was pro- ceeding towards Brittas. The hill was go steep that three of the four dismounted, but the fourth re- mainedin the saddle a little too long andhiis machine bolted." At the bottom of the hill a rctad runs at right angles bounded at the farther side by a four feet stone wall. To have attempted to t arn at the speed going was impossible, so the rider rem full tilt against the wall, the momentum acquired. causing the machine to bound over. At the critical moment he made a spring from the saddle and lightejd on his head on a heap of hay. His friends who came after, expected to find his mangled remains, and were agreeably surprised to find him practically unhurt. r. r — An amusing story which shows that circum- stances alter cases has been going the rounds. It seems that a new policeman on a certain beat, took a gentleman into custody for riding lampless, and this, in spite of the latter's probestations that he was weH known. On his arrival at the station the inspector, as well as the young policeman, was horrified to find that the local police surgeon had been arrested. Needless to say the matter never came into court and the Iyoung constable was very abashed at the miscarriage of his zealous efforts. Five fatal cycling accidents were reported in the press in one week, recently. The victims were a boy of twelve, a married lady, a barrister and two clergymen.. This list shows the universal use of the wheel. Talking of accidents,does'it ever strike the rider how many are directly attributable to carelessness and incompetency; the young man who rushes madly round the corner on his wrong side; tne girl, who has scarcely learnt to preserve her equi- librium, I yet ventures down hills, or amid traftic the flyer who canpot resist the temptation oi indulging in pace under the most disadvantageous conditions. These form by far the larger pro- portion of those who help to fill the gruesome list of cycling fatalities. It is a mistake to imagine that Dunlop Multi- flex '99 tyres do not last as long as the '98 pattern. Although they are lighter and faster owing to the improved pattern, these tyres -are unaffected by rough roads or adverse climatic conditions. Undoubtedly, the universal cycling movement And its popularity in these isles has done much towards the reclamation of the Inn from the condition of old crusted lethargy into which it fell when railways brought about the downfall of the old coachiug trade. In the provinces, especially beyond the area of the busier towns, the accommo- dation which the wayfarer, cyclist or pedestrian, obtained was poor indeed. Some indifferent American cheese, probably purchased at the general stores in the town and of distinctly gluti- nous condition, could be obtained, with bread that might be passable and a mug of ale, and this was the extent of the welcome. Except at the Commercial Inns, where the wheelman was looked upon as an intruder, nothing better was provided for the riders sustenance. Oddly enough, Land and Water deplores the change which wheeling has so largely brought about. It bewails the disappearance of the old thatched hostel where one could always be sure IC of a crust of bread and cheese and a pint of "bitter"—These are sentiments which are very pretty, on paper, but the old Inn parlour was a stuffy creation, with the smell of stale beer and sawdust lingering lovingly about the heavy mah- ogany furniture, with viands '.of the poorest, and the service frequently brusque to the point otboor- isbaeis. f W

STORY TELLER'S COLUMN.
STORY TELLER'S COLUMN. AN UNEXPECTED OFFER OF MARRIAGE. Mr. Jones was entertaining a party of friends at a dinner, to be followed up by a leap-year carpet dance. At the table the conversation became pretty general on the subject of a wedding that had caused considerable amount of comment on account of its lavish ex- penditure. It is the more ridiculous," remarked one of the guests-a Miss Smith—" because I do not believe the bridegroom is able to keep himself yet." Oh, yes, he is," replied a gentleman at the further end of the table his screw is the same as mine, and I can keep myself, you see." Ah but that is not the whole of the question," responded the lady, in an eager tone; you can maintain yourself, no doubt, but could you keep me too ? A dead silence ensued, followed by a suppressed titter, which the lady failed utterly to understand. It;s so unexpected, you see, Miss Smith," replied the gentleman in a confused toiie "but I'll think it over, if you will kindly give me a little time." JUST CAUSE. In a little village in Kent, down amidst the hop fields, there resides about as quaint a speci- men of humanity as ever I chanced upon," said a friend to the writer recently. "Every promise made, and everything] under- taken or completed, is arranged upon a plan as unique as it is comical. Quite recently, upon, being asked when his (laughter was going to be married, he replied, When the wheat's fit!' His son, he says, will begin to go to school 'When the cherries are ripe and everything the old fellow has to deal with as he traverses life's road is arranged in the same t quaint fashion, and only once—and thereby hangs a tale—has lie failed to redeem his promise. He had promised to pay off a little debt at the village grocer's4 When the taters was ready fer diggin' and although they had been harvested a month, the bill remained unpaid. You promised to pay i-t, if you remember, when your potatoes were ready!' remarked the patient creditor. Aye, an' so I will!' replied the other,' but ye see they won't be ready jest yet, fer I aint planted any this year METING OUT JUSTICE. Justice B- of the New York bench, is quick and snappy. He gets through with a case much sooner than the average police justice, and his decisions have a flavour of deep originality. Among the first prisoners brought before him one morning was a batch of mixed colours, captured in an opium den. There were nine in the bunch, and eight of them solemnly swore that they were not smoking opium, and had never rolled a pill in all their lives. The justice rolled his eyes in utter amazement and incredu- lity. "Tell me," he said, "wasn't there anybody smoking in that place ? And the ninth prisoner, a little negress, piped up- I was, yo' honah! I went down dar to smoke, an' I smoked, sah." The justice looked at her solemnly. Misguided wretch he exclaimed. So you confess your crime? Well, well! It would be a shame and a contamination to put you with these innocent people who never use the drug. Therefore I will discharge you and send the others to the Bridewell! HE KNEW HER NAME. A Scotch minister was once catechising his young parishioners before the congregation, when he put the usual first question to a girl whose father kept a public-house. What is your name ?" queried the minister. But there was no reply. The question was repeated, and then, to the amusement of the congregation, the girl answered: "Nane o' your fun, Mr. Minister. Ye ken my name weel enough. D'ye no say, when ye come to oor house on a night, Bet, bring me some ale'?" BEFORE IIE LOST HIS BAG. A poor labourer, as lie was repairing the roads one day, found a black bag, which lie conjectured had dropped from a carriage that a few minutes before. lie took it home to his wife and told her to keep it, probably someone would be inquiring for it in a day or two. A few days afterwards his wife said to him. "John, it is time you gave up work, you are getting old, I think we can manage to live on what I have saved," she added. How would you like to go to school and learn to read, so that you can amuse yourself during your leisure' hours ? John, being ignorant, thought it would be a capital thing to do, and accordingly started off to school. After lie had attended a few times he got tired of it, as the youngsters made it pretty warm for him. A short time after a gentleman called inquir- ing after the lost bag. oil," said John, I found one." "You found olle?" said his wife. "When?" "Don't you know; just before I went to school." "Before you went to scho.ol,"said the gentle- man, as lie bade them good-morning, remarking, That must have been a good while before I lost my bag," and he walked away. PROVIDENTIAL. A certain village in the north was ablaze with excitement the other day. The eldest son of the principal manufacturer of the place was taking unto himsel f a wife, and a general holiday had been proclaimed. When the happy couple emerged from the church door after the ceremony, they were greeted with the usual shower of rice, backed up with something more substantial in the shape of old shoes, etc. One of these latter missiles struck the bridegroom rather smartly on the hack of the bead, and he glanced over his shoulder, but failed to recognise the thrower. Some few days afterwards he was talking to one of the workmen, a son of Erin, and referred to the incident. Such practices should be abolished," he said. Rice is all right, but someone will be seriously hurt one of these days if the shoe- throwing nuisance isn't stopped." "Ye don't, think Oi did it, sor?" demanded Pat at this juncture. No, Pat, I'm not saying you threw the shoe. I give you credit for more sense." Av coorse, av coorse," rejoined Pat. Oi wouldn't be aftlier tlirowin' sich tilings at a fellow-cratur. But, sure now, it moiglit "ave been woorse aftlier all." The other did not see it in that light at all. "Sure, sor," went on Pat, "ye'll admit that it was a trifle providential that that shoe wasn't a clog, or ye'd'ave found it a uioighty liivvy shlipper." A SUBSTITUTE. An Irish girl was once employed by a lady to do the cooking and cleaning. Before the lady went away for her holidays she gave the girl a present and told her to use plenty of elbow-grease to polish the furniture and door-handles wh ile she Avas away. When the lady came back she said to the girl: Did you use plenty of elbow-grease while ',)" 1 was away No, mum. I had no elbow-grease, so I used mutton fat."

A QUAINT CUSTOM.
A QUAINT CUSTOM. A rather novel lot" was put up for sale by public auction at Oldham the other night. It com- prised a pew containing 10 sittings on the south aisle of Oldham Parish Church. The church is a very ancient edifice, and in the earlier years of the present century the seats brought large sums of money by reason of the fact that they carried with them the privilege of voting for a member of Parlia- ment. As much as from 9100 to 9150 was frequently offered and accepted for a pew, but on this occasion the highest bid was £31, at which the property changed hands.
LUNATIC'S DEATH.
LUNATIC'S DEATH. YOUNG WOMAN WHO SWALLOWED HAIR ORNAMENTS AND A HATPIN. At the Essex Lunatic Asylum at Brentwood an inquest was held on the body of Kate Poole, 29, an inmate from Clacton-on-Sea, who was admitted to the asylum suffering from acute melancholia. A post-mortem examination revealed the fact that her stomach contained a hatpin 7in. long, eight hairpins nearly 4in. long, and a piece of comb about 3in. long. Before her admission she had threatened to drown herself and had attempted to throw herself from a window. The medical evidence showed that death was caused by the presence of these foreign substances in the stomach, and a verdict to that effect WM returned.

With a remarkable sense of rectitude they made With a remarlmhle semle of rectitude they made haste in a cab to the Richmond Police-station, imploring to be taken care of. They were detained, and their clothes dried. But the police were unkind enough to charge them with being "drunk and incapable.

ABERGELE NOTES.
ABERGELE NOTES. Yesterday most of the business premises in Abergele were closed, the annual harvest thansgiving services being held in the Chapels. The weekly half-holiday will, I believe, be recog- nised as in years gone by. All shops will be closed on Thursdays at 1 o'clock. The annual Shooting Competition in connection with the Abergele Company of the Volunteers was commenced on Saturday, but was not com- pleted. The weather was anything but favourable. The annual harvest thanksgiving services were held in Abergele Church on Thursday last. After the service the choir and bellringers were invited to partake of a supper which had been prepared for them at the Church House. Much credit is due to Mr Charlie Jones for the manner in which the catering was carried out. After the supper the Vicar thanked the choir for the good atten- dance at the services, and said it was a great encouragement to the Clergy when the choir were regular at the practices as well as at Church.
