l SOLID TIRES, bNEUMATIc HUB. A New Invention Which Renders the 1Vheel Punctureless. Scuth Bethlehem, Pa... Oct. 1.——-An in- ventor here has just secured a patent on a bicycle with pneumatic hubs and solid tires. Around the axle, protected by steel thimbles, so that there is ab- solutely no wear on the rubber; is a pneumatic tube, blown up the same as pneumatic tires. This tube is incased in a nickel-steel frame, to which the spokes are attached. The frame, hang: ing on these inflated hubs, causes the rider to rock easily, as though he were sitting in a swing. There is conse- quently the least possible vibration, jarring and jolti'ng. The wooden rim consists of three kinds of wood, in three sections, spliced together. The spokes'are of a material'which can be bent and twisted and tied into knots like twine without breaking—in fact, they cannot be broken. The inventor also has a new way Of stringing the wheel, so that the pressure and weight are never on less than four spokes at the same time. WOMEN CLUB MINERS. ' Non-Union Men Under Deputies’ Pro- tection \Vhen Attacked. Edwardsville, Ill., Oct. 1.——Non-union coal miners were being escorted to work this morning by the deputy sheriffs, when they were chased by a force of strikers numbering fully 300, supplemented by about one hundred women. The line was broken and the non-- union men fled in every direction, and the deputies were roughly handled. The women used clubs and beat the non- union men most- unmercifully, but none was dangerously hurt. The deputies were wonderfully cool and not a shot was fired. After the riot the strikers, led by women, marched through the town, with the Stars and Stripes flying at their head. Another riot to-‘day may mean bloodshed. :"711 1’ The Treasury Finances.
