Prrsufent harie tt the League of Ameri can Wheelmen Is circulating among bicycle ' enthusiasts In tho east, taking nnd giving nlr pressure In connection with a Berles of banquets, all of which bo survived. His suggestion respiting life membership has been Indotscd by n majority of chief con suls, and n special assembly will conveno nt Detroit on tho 2!lh Inst, to taka final nctlon on the plan. Sufficient proxies havo already been sent l'l to assure tho ndop tlihi qf this resolution which gives to nny Leaguu of American Wheelmen member who Is, may havu been or will be, the right to become u life member without further payment of ilues, by paying $10. This Is a novel schemo nnd Eurlo expects to rccclvo money enough from this to fur nish the lenguo with funds to branch out nnd bo ns lively as It ever was. The California divisions of the Lenguo of American Wheelmen nnd tho California Associated Cyclists aro backing a bill In tho legislature .permitting counties where thu local authorities agree to tax a small amount upon bicycles, tho revenue to bo used solely for thu construction of side paths upon tho public highway!. The bill has passeil the scnatu ami thcro Is little opposition to It In the assembly, Tho pro visions of tho bill will make It operate similarly to tho nitsworth law In New York, which was passed by thu League of American Wheelmen and under which hun dreds of miles of paths havo been built. Tho expense of construction Is defrayed by tho tax and the general public Is under no obligation, but tho paths arc of great benefit. In the rural districts, wlicro they aro popularly known ns tho "farmer's side walks." Tho annual renewal season of tho League of American Wheelmen Is close nt hand. On April 1 10,000 memberships expire, Theso represent tho "Old Guard," nil of whom havo been In tho organization nt least six years, somo of them for terms up to twenty years. This section of tho leaguo member ship In the ouo most honored among wheelmen. To It Is given credit for nearly all of the hard work which has resulted In wheelmen's rights nnd privileges through nut tho country, nnd In It ore the men who have led the good roads movement. As they havo regularly renewed their memberships each year, It Is prohablo that tho percentage who drop out this year will bo very small. Tho best method of dismounting from n free-wheel machine In tho old-fashioned backward stop, tho Impetus of tho cyclo carrying It forward nnd from under tho rider. To attempt tho ordinary side-jump, relying on the pressure on tho rising pedal to slow tho machlno, Is usually to court disaster, whether a hack-pcdallng broke is lit ted or not, unless tho rider has had considerable experlenco In tho art of free wheeling. For a woman tho only method Is to step off when tho left pedal Is nt tho bottom. Tho National Good Roads association hns undertaken a credltnblo enterprise, U hns cqulprcd a train consisting of six flat and ono commissary car, which will make n trip from Chicago to Now Orleans during April. Frequent Btops will bo ratile, at which places good roads conventions will bo held and sections of now roads mado. Practical as well us theoretical education will therefore be given. Kxporlenccd coun try roud engineers will accompany the out lit. It Is thought that Interest will be taken In the districts visited and that good will In. accomplished. Tho New York Sun editorially discusses cycling prospects for tho season about to open us follows: "Judging from present ludlcntlous the outdoor bicycle seuson, which usually pets In about tho middle of April, will this year bo open In all Its glory before tho eloso of tho present month. In deed, It muy almost bo said that tho season Is even now under way, so great la tho ac tivity existing tu tho btcyclo tra.de nnd among tho clubs of tho wheelmen, and so numerous nru tho wheels In use. Weekly runs have been held and others havo been announced, and from now' on nothing short of heavy roads nud bad weather will pre vent tho pedallern from enjoying to tho ut most tho first weeks df spring. "From a commercial viewpoint tho begin ning of tho now century finds tho blcyclo industry in this conutry in excellent health. Never slnco 'tho wheel first mado Its ap- penranco has tho business of Its manufac ture and salo been carried on so satisfac torily ns now; nover, wo bollcve, bus tho quality of tho machines produced been bet ter or their price so reasonable; and at no tlmo has thero been u clearer or moro widespread understanding among riders of what constitutes a llrst-clnss machine. Tho truth of these statements Is shown In many wnys. Tho systematic conduct of the blcyclo Industry Is apparent from the lack of strlfo and Indecision among the manu facturers, and tho absence of unfavorable criticism of their output Is proof enough that It never has been cxcolled. "Ucllovlng, therefore, that tho whools of 1901 will ho tnkon nt tholr proper value. und that tholr snlo will bo large, makers und dealers nro planning for a busy spring.

Their places have been filled by trustworthy representa tives of large and established manu facturers with n reputation for conserva tism nnd fair dealing which promises to Inspire contldcnco and promote business. "Tho desire for Improvement, over pres ent In America, has been the cuuso of marked advancement In the art of wheel making, and the various mechanical fea tures of thin year's models seen nl Ihfc Cyclo show become even jnoro striking now that tho wheels nro actually In use. Tho cushion frame, for example, which has undergone material changes, appears In greatly Improved form nnd Is sum to hnve a host of admirers, particularly amotu; mludle-nged persons, who hitherto hnve found tho blcyclo'n vibration objectionable.
