This is the season when wheelmen
and wheelwomen begin to, stow away
their bicycles for the winter. Thty
shouldn’t do so.- There will be prob-
ably, half of the days during the winter
when wheeling will be fairly-good.
There will be some clerks and others

who have to go a long distance to their I

work who will ride nearly every day
during the cold months. Why should-

n’t others, who ride largely for please

 

ure get seme enjoyment out of the
Wheel during that time 3 ,

‘ It is probable that more women will
ride their wheels during the pleasant
intervals this winter than there ever
did before. One reason of this is that
there are more riders, and another is
that they are beginning to have the
idea more that so long as the roads and
streets are passable, the wheels might
as well be used even if the weather is
chilly. It is easy enough to dress
warmly. -

Probably never before have so many
men and women rode their wheels so
late in the fall as this year. It is now
but a week before Thanksgiving Day.
And how many of us have been skating
and coasting on Thanksgiving in the
years past.——Danbury News.

the 7:45 train at South Norwalk for
thatcity. When he arrived at the de-

' pot the ’train had started and was under

fairly good headway. .
He attempted to board the third car
and grabbed the guard rail for that
purpose, but his foot slipped on the
step. He, however, clung to the rail
and was dragged a distance of 200 feet
to and on the Monroe street trestle
where he released his grasp, but fort-
unately did n’ot fall under the wheels.

Those who witnesgad the accident
ran to Veitch’s assistance and found
him lying on the trestle work in a
semi-conscious condition.

In falling he struck on his head and
shoulder. Strangely enough the only
injury he suffered was a bruise on his
shin, and few slight wounds on his
body, the latter being mere skin
abrasions.

His overcoat and trousers were badly
damaged by the stone ballasting on
the tracks. ‘

Rev. W.. l. Slocum Leaves
W’attrbury for Bridgeport.

A number of changes in the assign-
ment. of Catliolic‘pi‘iests to the differ-
ent parishes in the diocese of Hartford
are announced by Bishop Tierney. One
of the most important changes is the
transfer of the Rev. James C. O’Brien,
for the last ten years rector of the Sa-
cred Heart parish. Bridgeport, to the
rectorship of St. Peter’s ichurch at
Hartford, which is a permanent as-
signment, the rector retaining his
position for life. This rector-ship has
been vacant for some time, and the ap-
pointment is an honor to FatherO’Brien
in which his parishoners will take
pleasure, while they will deeply regret

‘ his de arture from amcn them.
Mr. Veitch intended attending afun- . P g

To succeed Father O’Brien the bish-
op has chosen the Rev. W'illiam J. Slo-
cum of Waterbury. Father Slocum
gained prominence in the diocese, while
rector of St. Mary’s church at Norwalk.
Besides being an earnest worker in his
calling, Father Slocum is a preacher
of force and eloquence. His sermons
have been noted for their vigor and
freedom from prosy dissertations. A
sermon on the evils of prize fighting,
which he preached at Waterbury, Sun-
day, two days after the exhibition at
the city hall in which one man was
knocked out, was characteristic of the
man and attracted attention all over

the state.
The Rev. Richard J.

eight years has been assistant rector of
St. Mary’s church, Bridgeport, will be
promoted by being assigned to the
charge of a parish at Fair Haven, which
will include a portion of the city of
New Haven. This parish will be creat-
ed by the division of St. I Francis’ par-
ish, Fair Haven, which is at present
the largest in the diocese. For some
time Father Carroll, owing to the ill-
health of his rector. Father J. F. Rog-
ers, has been the acting rector of Sty
Mary’s parish, and his promotion to
the ‘charge of a, parish of his own is
made in recognition of the splendid ex-
ecutive ability which he has displayed
since the affairs of St. Mary’s parish

have devolved upon him.
'The original port-ion of St. Francis’

parish, Fair Haven, will be in charge

Carroll, who for

of the Rev. James Kennedy of N orwich.‘

In making his appointments the bishop
has consulted the rectors of his diocese,
and each decision reached was the re-
sult of careful deliberation.

THE JUDGE 'was common.
Ell Ride of 6.0 Miles an Hour andaSand
Bath When Breaks Were Applied.

The town of Victoria, Mex., has
one just judge. A- little while after
the railway'reached the village the.
usual drunken Mexican was killed on
the track in the usual way. The train-
men were promptly arrested and the
train held. They said that they were
running within the statutory speed,
and it was impossible to stop in time
to avoid the man’s death. ,The alcalde
said he would see about that. He or-
dered the engineer to get up steam
and back up the road to a point two
miles beyond the, place where the
death had occurred. He teak a seat
In the cab. Reaching the desired
spot, he said: “Run at the speed you
had the other day, and when you
come insight of the place where the
man was killed put on the brakesf’
It was not to the engineer’s interest
to run too slowly, and the throttle
was thrown open. The train went
down the line at sixty miles an hour.
It was the alcalde’s first ride, and he
was hanging out of the cab window,
delightedly looking at the rushing
country, when the air brakes were
slammed down for all that there was
in them. He described seven or eight
somersaults and lit on his back twen—
ty feet away. He rose, brushed the
sand out of his hair and eyes, and
looked at the locomotive, which was
standing some yards further on and
quietly puffing. “‘Valga. me dios!"
(“Well, dang my buttonsl”) was all
he said. He decided that the train-
men were not in any way to blame
and took them all to dinner with him.

A LIL.|PUTIAN ENGINE.

Can Be Carried in the Vest Pocket- -A Per-

fect Working Piece of Mechanism.

The smallest steam engine in the
world is one that was made by an
American boy when he was sixteen
years old. It can easily be carried,
and with room to spare, in an ordinary
vest pocket, and it weighs less than
half an ounce.

Yet, notwithstanding its microscopic

4 dimensions, it is a perfect machine,

and when the few drops of water its
tiny silver boiler will bold are con-
verted into steam the engine will run
at the rate of 3,000 revolutions per
minute. In type it is a high-pressure
beam engine, and it is constructed
principally of gold and silver. All
told there are over 150 pieces in its
make-up, some of them so small as be
be almost invisible without the aid of
a magnifying glass. The diameter of
the cylinder is one-sixteenth of an
inch; diameter of flywheel five-eights
of an inch. The boiler is made of sil-
ver in five distinct plates, or sheets.
There are no rivets in either the boiler
of any other parts of the engine, The
separate parts are all held tog-ether by
screws. Nothing about the entire con-
struction of this curious piece of
mechanism is more remarkable than
these screws. They are perfect in
form and detail and hold the separate
parts of the machine together as firm-
ly as though they were riveted, and
yet each of these screws is so small it
can only be picked up by the aid of a
magnififying glass and a sharp-pointed
pair of pincers.——New York World.

A CLOCK FOR THE DEAF.

The Pnpils’ Attention Called Hourly B)
It to the School Programme.

One of the interesting items of the
State expense charges for July, says
the St. Paul Globe, appears in’the cur-
rent lists of the State school for the
deaf at Faribault. It is an item of
$252 for a clock, which is remarkable
in more elements than in that of its
expensive character.

But this mechanism is certainly a
wonder, for it is so arranged that it
calls the pupils’ attention hourly to
the school )rogramme and the calcu-
dar, in spite of the fact that they are
all deaf and the usual alarms do not
affect them/in the least.

Of course one clock would not be
visible to all the pupils, so there are

. ten secondary clocks, with lZ—inch di-

als, which tell the teachers and schol-
ars who cannot see the main clock
what class in mathematics is now due
to count up fractions on its fingers, or
when the scholars in English gram-
mar will write their lesson leaflets.

BEST OF HUNTING DOGS.

The Beagle in the Future to be‘ the Sports-
man's Delight.

Beagles are useful little hounds, and
not at all ‘ecmmon in this c0untry,
although bound to be in the nearfu-
ture, that is, Where hunting is a sport.
The beagle may be kept with little
trouble at no very great outlay. This
in itself is one of the reasons that they
are the hunting dog of the future.

You must have three couple at least,
but to take a fair average, five couple
is the best, and with this number one
may have many a stirring run. Indeed, -
there is no member of the canine spe-
cies with which so much may be dene
as the beagle. He is a very clever dog;
his qualities are patience, reflection and
endurance; invariably the pack
hunt in a lump, and seldom straggle
away from their companions.

The great thing is to let him have his
own way. He understands far better
than you do the twists and the doubles,
the shift and dodges, to which the hare
resorts when pursued.

When it is purposed to take the
beagles out hunting on the following
day, they should be fed about 1 o’clock,
and then be shut up until they are
wanted. The start should not be de-
layed a moment later than "10:30
1 o'clock. The soOner you are at work
(the better, as, if your beagles have

been fed at the proper hour on thepre-
‘ ceding day they will be quite ready for
: their work. .
| Judiciously handled, many a. day of
most delightful amusement may be
obtained with a few couple of beagles,
but do not, on any pretense whatever,
5 allow people on horseback.——-Chica:o
