The report of Treasurer Tattersnll of the
League of American Whceliueu, rendered to
the executive committee at the meeting In
Now York last week, shows thnt there Is a
balance In the treasury of J3.23S.68, This
showing will be roost satisfactory to mem
bers of the league. Secretary Ilassett re
ports that nearly 500 members of the organ
ization have already availed themselves of
the privileges of the touring alliances with
European countries and have taken cards
In the Cyclists' Touring club, which are
furnished to all league members contem
plating foreign tours upon request.
One of the wonders of cycle racing has
been the marvelous Increase In speed thst
has followed tbo Introduction of motorcycle
pacing. With the old style of pace very few
of the riders were able to get under the two
minute mark, but since the "Infernal ma
chines" have come Into fashion miles close
to 1:30 aro not at all uncommon nnd n bicy
cle rider who could not como within a couple
of seconds of thnt mark would not be con
sidered In the gnme with tho topnotch men.
Tho Increase has been marked alnce tho
present season opened, Hut tho. gain In
speed through motor pacing does not com
pensate for the danger. Tho awful tragedy
on the Waltham track on Decorntlon day, by
which two riders lost their lives, disclosed
tho perils of mechanlcnlly-drlven bicycles.
In this Instance the tnndom had reached a
speed of forty miles an hour, Uy a quick
swerve It was forced from the track and
over n bank nnd Into a crowd of spectators,
nne rider being Instantly killed, tho other
fatally Injured, two spectators having limbs
broken and three others being morn or less
injured. There was no escape from the
blind energy of the machine when the riders
lost control of It. It was a swerve, a plunge,
a shriek of terror and the mischief was
done.
The exact provisions of the Massachusetts
bicycle baggage net signed last week nre
capable of' misunderstanding and mischief,
In that It Is a law without a penalty. It
roqulres every railroad company "of stand
ard gauge" to check and transport n bicycle
between stations within tbn limits of tho
state for any passenger, subject to the same
and no other charges, terms and liabilities
as other buggago; but thin requirement only
applies when the passenger pays by mileage
book or by ticket other than i. season ticket,
or In cah, tho established fare of not looj
than 10 cants, exclusive of any rebate. No
railroad company Is required to transport
moro than one bicycle for a single passenger,
nnd tho weight of tho bicycle la to bo In
cluded In estimating tbo total weight of
baggago for which transportation Is desired.
No passenger Is required to crate, cover or
otherwise protect a blcyclo presented for
transportation no tmgguge. As reported from
tho committee tho bill prescribed a penalty
of $25 for every refusal by a railroad com
pany to comply with Its provisions, to be
recovered In an nctlon of tort by tho pas
senger, but thto was stricken out In tho
senate, so that as It now stands Its ob
servance Is practically optional with the
railroad.
Tiro tape la a bicycle accessory that runs a
vory close raco with troiiBor guards In tho
matter of prlco reductions. It has only been
of a comparatively recent tlmo that tho prlco
got below 10 cents por piece, nnd then aro
undoubtedly plenty of veterans who remem
ber when good tiro tape listed at and brought
25 cents por package. Yet now It In freely
advertised at 1 cent, Kven at tho high fig
ures prevailing In years gone by there wus
the greatest possible dlfforcnco In tho tire,
tape offered to the public, and the snmo con
dition undoubtedly prevails to thto day,
Thcro was tire tapo and tiro tape, and while
a cut prlco would never procure tho best, on
the other hand the paymont of a good ono
did not alwuys Insure this either. Then, as
now, unscrupulous dealero did not hesitate
to palm off worthless tape for good, and It
I was not easy to break up the practice. Tire
tapo that Is not heavily coated with solu
tion Is little better than so much twine,
and no It Is the solution that costs It Is not ,
surprising that It 1 used very sparingly on '
tho cheap grudes. When a rider has need of
tiro tapo It is usually an urgent case, and
the bent is nono too good for him. If it Is
generously solutlnnlzcd It will stick closer
than a brother to tiro or whatever It may
be applied to, und then the rider knows ho
has received his money's worth. Hut tho
1-cont kind rarely has any stlckatlvenees to '
It and Is thrown away If tho right kind Is 1
readily procurable, I
of road. Many people, growing nervous, I BIG FIELD OF STARTERS
grip tho handlebars fiercely. This Is a mis-,
take. It stiffens the position of tho front'
wheel so that it cannot act cosily. If you
hold the handlebars lightly when going over
slippery ground and rather favor the In-1
cllnation of tho front wbcol than resist It,
you will find that the tendency to sideslip
almost disappears. Thin is ono of thoso
things easily understood, but rathor difficult
to explain. Try it. ThlB Is advico given
by a votornn who ought to know what ho
Is talking about.
According to tho Chinese habit of doing
most things backward a visitor In Shanghai !
says ho fully expected to oeo the first Chlneso t
cyclist he enmo across pedal backward, "To
our astonishment," he wrote, "ho rodo for-
ward In tho proper manner. His nttlro was
such oh Is not easily forgotten. Tho baggy 1
trousers wore hauled up over tho kuees, dls-1
closing a pair of shinny sticks swathed In
dlou rags or somothlng. This was done to
prevent his trousers from tearing In tho
chain. Haro feet on rubber pedals, a big,
yellow balloon shirt bulging out like tho
splnnnkor on a racing yacht and a (lying
pigtail undfcC a small tin can of a cap topped
by a button. Ho was a wealthy merchant, I
wo wero told, and looked as If wheeling
agreed with him In splto of bin clothes."
Tho freshly-watered street Is a bugbear
to tho wheelman. True, the dust Is laid,
but thcro Is a chnnco, unless he bo par-i
tlcularly wary, of tbo rldcr bolng laid, Car.

Some peoplo consider it a lazy way to
mount a blcyclo from the curbstono, and
rather undignified to hop along tho road on t
one foot, with tho other on tho step. The
best way to mount, In tho opinion of ex
ports, Is to hold the handlobars easily, walk
along tho 'left sldo of the machlno rather1
shurply, and then, without stopping, put tho
left foot on tho Btcp arid spring Into tho!
onrtin a ennd rider always seizes the
moment for doing so when tho right pedal
Is on tho upward move, so that his foot
catches It at tho summit, and ho Is able
to pedal right away.
It Is stated that the number of bicycles
turned out this year will bo 10 per cent
greater than In 1809. And the figures go to
show that there are 6,000,000 wheels In uso
In this country already. That Ib doubtful.
Thero aro 15,000,000 families In this country
and there 1 not a wheel In every other
household. Tho estimate Is too liberal,
