As a writer of hymns Fanny Crosby , the
blind poetess , has a refutation that Is world
wide. Her verses are sung by Christian
people everywhere and have been translated
Into almrst e-very tongue.
Beside her hymns , which number about
4 000 , she has composed many ballads aivl
lyrics and written the words for several
cantatas.
Not only Is she poetess and lecturer , buc
philanthropist CQ well , for scarcely a day
MISS CROSBY.
passes that Miss Crosby does not find time
to devote several hours to work among the
sick poor , and in this she says she tlnds ber
greatest joy and consolation. Her own In-
flrmity docs not oppress her as much as the
woes ot another.
Her methods of composing are unique ; alie
depends neither ucon : moods nor Inspiration ,
but a "hymn written while you wait" has
always bo ii characteristic of her work.
About thirty yerirs ago Fanny Crosby now
lacks but three years of Teaching the four-
sroro mark dhe made an agreement with a
musical firm in New York to write ex
clusively tor their house and to furnlah
three hymns weekly. These are always on
time and always meet with ready sale. One
cf her best known hymns , "Safe In thi >
Arms of Jesus , " was written In twenty
minutes. It is said thit 110 modern hymn
has been mere popular or translated Into
moro languages.
As a rale MU3 Crosby composes at night.
After her family has retired she seats her
self in a comfortable chair and thinks out or
composes a hymn , or two or three , as the
case may be. Perhaps by this time it is 2
or 3 o'clock In the morning. She than retires.
In tha morning she dictates the new linen to
her companies , who Is annnuens'a and sec
retary us well. Then the verses are rend t >
her and she makes any changes which may
suggest themselves. One peculiarity of the
blind poetess is that she never can think

Time and experience are steadily diminishIng - ;
Ing the force of the opposition to bicycle ]
brakes. Last year a brake on a bicycle was
considered the badge of an amateur rider.
During the past season the Increased numi i
bcr oC brakes modified the scorn of the' '
scorchers. Pleasutc riders found the brake
an exceedingly useful attachment , especially
on steep or long hills. What little wear the
tires sustained from the use of the brake-
ihoe was balanced by assurances of safety
and the relief It gave the rider's exhausted
limbs. Next year the use of the brake
will 'bo more general. Most manufacturers
save adopted the brake as a necessity , and
will attach them to all road wheels. One of
the main reasons for this action la the In
creased gear now demanded. Instead of the
sixty and sixty-four gears o ? . the past , the
common gear for ' 93 will tic seventy-two ,
unless otherwise ordered. Everyone- who has
changed from a low to i high gear IB aware
of the greater impulse given to the bicycle
by each revolution of the pedal as the gear
Is raised , and It must be evident to all that
the dllllculty of slowing down Is Increased In
tl-e same proportlrn. In city streets It Is
often necessary to stop quickly , or at least
greatly to reduce one's speed , nnd when an
emergency arises the man with a high gear
may find a brake uncommonly handy.
Consul Keenan , writing from Bremen , has
made a useful and not unwelcome variation
In consular literature , which In the main
has run to commercial theme ? , by com
municating to the Department of State the
chief points of a paper on the medical view
of blcvcling which was delivered 'by Prof.
Mendelssohn to the 'Medical ' Society of Berlin.
According to th'a authority bicycling Is
either good or bad for the health according
to the age and physical condition , of the
ilder and the amount of discretion with
which he may use the wheel. These who
rldo to excess , It Is claimed , are especially
susceptible to Infectious diseases and to
colds ; and Prof. Mendelssohn holds that
wbeellng should be forbidden where there la
organic heart trouble , articular calcification
or albumlnurla. acd also In childhood nnd
old age. On the other hand. Prof. 'Mendels
sohn contends that the wheel Is of benefit
In the following cases : (1) ( ) "When excessive
uric acid and gout exist ; (2) ( ) In certain mild
forms of chronic disturbances la the pelvic
organs ; (3) ( ) when there are slight drs-
ttifbancea In the respiratory organs , except
absolute lung dilation.
The conclusions thus briefly summarized
may present few points which will be re
garded as especially novel by the meiilcal
profession In this country , but they may
serve to bring out more specific hints fruin
the authorities in general , while restraining
the laymen from the tendency to excessive
exercise to which the seductive pleasure of
the wheel Is such a constant temptation.
Justice O'Gorman of the Eleventh district
court of New York decided a case of Inter
est last week In a suit 'brought ' before him
by a cyclist against the proprietors of &
drill ; store. The wheelman had left his
bicycle In a rack outside and had been giver.
a key for the rack by a colored boy In
charge. When he had finished drlnkluj tht
sodx water for which lie had entered tht
store he went out anJ found that his wheel
was gen a. The boy had been sent away
with a prescription , sad knew nothing of
the theft. The lawyer for the plaintiff
claimed that as the drug store sold refresh
ments it was nc inn and consequently re
sponsible for the loss of property left with it
Tha defendant made the point that the rack
was nothing more than a hitching post , and
ho was not responsible for the wheel any
more than he would have been for a horst
and wagon. The Judge decided for the de
fendant ! and wheelmen will govern them
selves accordingly la similar cases.
Smart women , who have adopted cycling
as a pastime , naturally look as well on. a
bicycle as they do everywhere else. Style
tells on the bicycle saddle as much as on
the back of a horse. There Isno prettier
or more graceful sight In the wdrld than a
well bred , well trained woman sitting on her
cycle as It should be set and riding 'It as
it was meant to be'ridden.
How mcny persons are there who have - witnessed
nessed the effect of wet weather upon cyclists
when afoot ? It generally happens that those
who cannot use their bicycles wear the &ho s
designed for cycle riding. In a majority of
instances the shoes do not have a leather
sole , but a composition which Is termed elk
sole , and sometimes oxide leather. When
new this material presents a far different
appearance from ordinary sole leather , but
the composition is said to be tougher and
more durable than the regular article. In
wet weather , however Its peculiar qual ties
are observed more than ever In ordmnry
shoe leather when walking there is no ten
dency to slip. The we'ght ' of the body
presses the sole of the shoo firmly on the
ground , end creates a sort of suction , thereby
preventing a slipping motion. Not so with j
the elk or oxide sole. Instead of creating (
a. suction It does otherwise , nnd every step
the wearer takes the sole slides over the
surface with a rather peculiar motion. This
Is especially true on the granolithic pave
ments , which are smoother than the ordi
nary brick pavement. A man walking on
such a pavement on a rainy day , with the
bicycle sole , will bo observed to step In a
rather peculiar way , always slipping and
sliding , and always on the alert to prevent
a fall. Every time one foot fs .placed In
front of another the rear foot wljea lifted
from the ground will slip perceptibly , and to
keep his equilibrium the wearer la obliged
to execute an odd Involuntary movement.
Notice this the next time you are but on a
wet day.
ULUE JACKETS O.V 11ICYCI.ES.
The Wheeling- , tc Snccpniifnllr In-
vnilcn tinXnvy. .
The bicycle has entered the navy and from
present appearances has found a permanent
place. Every ship In the service , according
| to the New York Ttimes has Its quota of
wheelmen , who spend their leisure time when
the vessels are In the harbor on their silent
steeds. Whea the ships are at sea the wheels
are safely stowed away , either below decks
or in the quarters of the officers and men.
Tha wheelmen are not only the younger
cfllcers and the men before the mast , but
many of the commanding officers of the ships
who saw sen-Ice during the war have taken
to the bicycle. Two more enthusiastic wheel
men than Captain Silas Casey , commanding
the flagship New York , and Ccptaia Francis
J. Hlgglnson. commanding the battleship
Massachusetts , cannot be found. They have
become expert riders , and while their vessels
are in the harbor much o ! their leisure time
Is spent riding around the country.
A short time ago circulars were sent to the
wheeling olflcers of the different vessels.
The outcome waa the organizing of the North
Atlantic Squadron Bicycle club. It was
started CQ the flagship New York by the
Junior officers. Every ship In the squadron
is now represented in the club , which prom
ises to become a strong organization.
Olflcers have been elected to govern the
club and each ship is represented at tha'
meetings by a member.
Tha North Atlantic squadron Is not the
only one that supports a bicycle club. The
men attached to the navy yard at Brooklyn.
OB well as the marines there , have taken to
the wheel. It Is a common occurrence to see
the bluejackets from the receiving ship Ver
mont or the marines attached to the barracks
either on Cob Deck or Flushing avenue rid
ing in the yard.
The men attached to the sh'ps ' of the
squadron have an advantage over these on
the receiving ship Vermont. As the ships
visit many ports , the wheelmen attached to
them can sec different countries and they
are also given greater liberties than the men
en duty at the navy yard. This , however ,
has not dampened the ardor of the wheelmen
of the Vermont. They have built a track at
the navy yard.
Through the efforts of Father Reany , chap
lain of the Vermont , a portion of Cob Dock
was turned over to the men of the Vermont
to be used as an athletic field. It Is situated
near the ordnance wharf and away from the
busy part of the yard.
The men were allowed to use the place pro
viding they would Improve It. The place was
In a bad condition when they took charge of
It , about two months ago. ( t needed many
Improvements. The men used their leisure
time In filling In and grading the place , which
has since become known as "Klondike. " as a
largo amount of old shot and shell was used
to fill In the swampy places. The work of
improving the place has been finished. Be
sides a large even field which will be used
for foot ball and base ball a cinder bicycle
track has been constructed. The track Is as
fine as any of Its size In the country. A
grandstand was erected under a. number of
trees which were brought from Napoleon's
grave at St. Haltaa In tha Lancaster more
j than thirty years ago.
I After quarters , both morning and evening ,
the wheelmen meet at the track and arrange
races. These contents often prove close and
exciting. Some good records have boon made
on the track by the sailor men from the
Vermont.

Once started , the little fellow had no ftir-
thcr control of his wheel , and shot down the
precipitous decline. His mother and sister
saw the bicycle atrlko uotne logs at the foot
of the hill and the boy's body shoot forward
and disappear over the low stone wall. The
lad tell to the tracks Just as a train had
passed. Though seriously Injured he will
probably recover.

without exerting all the power of a strong

o'clock , and rode as far hs that thoroughfare -

his sister. Florence. 11 years , old stood on
the steps of their homo and' watched him.
When ho reached the edge ot the steep RraJe
ho was about to dismount. $ flen his wheel

Its speed was Immediately ; 'Increased ' , and
the boy seemed to realize .his danger. His
grip tightened and his feet vainly tried to
keep the swiftly moving pedals.
"Turn , Redman ! " shrieked nle sister , but
ho made no motion. Workmeti on the side
ot the street shouted and''eeveral started as
though to catch htm , but they might as well
have tried to catch a whirlwind. The boy
went by In a flash.
Florence called to Mrs. . Cornell , who -was
nearby , but before the mother could reach
the door the lad was near the end ot his
wild journey. She barely reached the stoop
before the wheel struck the flrat obstruction
some timber lying near the guard wall.
The lad shot forward and cleared the wall.
A flagman , on the tracks far below saw
the descent. The lad fell Just at the back
ot the last car ot a freight train , his feet
on the tracks. His life was saved by his
body striking the taught wire of a slunal
apparatus from which ho rebounded. Then

who had laboriously climbed the side em

In his arms. Neighbors ran to Mrs. Cornell's
assistance , and half a dozen doctors were
summoned , as well as an ambulance from the
Manhattan hopltal. The boy was taken home
then , and It was found that his worst injury
was a broken leg. When ho recovered con

FIIEAKS AXD XOVEr/TIKS.
Inventive. Skill MIAmilleil to tlif
Illryele.
A number of freak patents In the bicycle
line have recently been allowed. One of the
most unique was that glvea to an Inventor
of Yonkers , N. Y. His model Is an Im
provement on. the upright'w'lieel. . It Is a
front driving affair , similar to theordinary. .
On the backbone ot the wheel the patent
provides for an arrangement which cam be
used as a child's seat or a receptacle tor
carrying articles. The great Innovation is
la the arrangement of the handle bars. In
stead of being In front ot the rider , as Is
generally the case , they curve around from
the rear. A rod Is attached to the head of
the wheel , running beneath the saddle , to the
end of which the handle bars are attached ,
curving upw.ird at an angle of nearly 45
degrees. The brake Is directly In front
of the horn ot the saddle , and Is operated
on the lever system , by shoving downward
? ad In the direction the wheel is going.
The saddle Is attached to the backbone ot
the wheel by means of a goose-neck saddle
post of more than ordinary curve , so as to
allow the free working ot the rod which
connects the handle bars with the head.
Another strange invention Is that of a
Boston mm , which is evidently designed to
lessen vibration , but which hardly appears
to be practicable. His Invention provides
for a curved telescopic bar , which ruas from
the head to a point In the frame almost
directly 'beneath the saddle post. The bar
Is provided with an Internal spiral spring , of
more or less strength , which fits tate pro
jections of the frame , m-de especially for
the purpose. To still further lessen vibra
tion , a similar bar and sprinc Is placed at
the lower part of the bicycle , running from
the man sprocket arrangement to an exten
sion ot the frame , designed especially tor the
purpose. To keep the two .wheels together a
jointed tar runs horizontally between the
different portions of the frame. This Im
provement is designed tomalce the bicycle
a sort of rocklnp chair for the rider.
Still another freak upon which a patent
was allowed Is the idea -of a Philadelphia
man. It Is hard to describe this Inven
tion , owing to its many complications. Tlie
front -wheel Is less than one-half the
diameter of the rear wheel , and ia hung In
bak-faclng forks. It turns on a vertical
oteering head , which hag a length equal
to more than the- diameter of the wheel.
Three distinct rods connect It with the
remainder of the bicycle. At the apex of
the triangular frame a seat Is arranged ,
resembling the seat of -chair much more
than a bicycle sadflo. There are no handle
bars. Instead at each side of the scat are
grips. By twisting these thp steering is
accomplished. The motion of pedaling is
not like that on the ordinary safety. In
stead of describing a complete circle the
Invention provides for an upward and
dowr.ward movement of the foot only. The
chain and sprocket are the same as on an
ordinary safety. According to the inventor's
claim , he has "ft guiding mechanism , which , f
while capable of making quick turns , la
normally Inclined to move directly forward ,
p.tcfpt when guided to one aide by the
rider-
One of the new cycling novelties Just
Introduced might bo called a sort of sus
pension tire. The tire Is said to weigh only
one pound more than the regular pntutnntlc
tire , and some ot the Virtues claimed for It
are such that. U It can till the bill , other
tire-makers may ns well prepare to adapt
themselves to a ne-w order of things. Several
of the tire-makers have se n the Invention ,
and at this -writing none ot them have an
nounced their Intention to divert from their
beaten path. The tire Is not pneumatic , and
consexjucatly < tes not have to be blown up.
For the same reason. It will not puncture.
There Is an , outer layer ot soft rubber , which
Is so arranged that the claim Is made for It
that It will not throw mud tip the back of
the man or woman on the wheel. There Is a
semi-circular laminated wooden rim , and j
over the open part Is drawn a rubber
dlaframe. secured by expansion rings from
side to side of the hollow wood. The Inner
rhn , which rests on the rubber dlaframe , and
to which tha spokes are attached. Is about aa
large as a carpenter's pencil. The maker
says that the tire -will prove to be Just as
resilient as the pneumatic tire , and that It
Is practically1 Indestructible. Even It the
outer shoe docs wear out , It can bo replaced
at a small cost.
Another Inventive genius bas patented a
bicycle with i droil-seot arrangement , for
which ) ho claims wondrous things. As a
military wheel ho says that It will provo
to he just the thins , while for women rid
ers It will enablti women to ride a diamond
frame without the usual Inconveniences
and awkwardness. The upper part of the
tpp tar slants decidedly toward the se-it
post In order to allow the dropping and
raising of the post. When the seat Is
lowered the rider can reach the saddle
by simply straddling the wheel. Then , ho
puts his weight upon the pedals , and , turn
ing the left , handle grip , he Is shot up Into
the air and cnn pedal oft. When he wishes
to dismount the handle grip Is turned and
the seat drops , allowing the rider to dis
mount , or rather push back from the wheel
with his feet on the ground. The wheel
has been shown to several prominent mili
tary men In the district , with the Idea ot
having the machine adapted for military
use. In. a skirmish the soldier could allow
the seat post to drop , and then with his
feet on the ground he could flrc at the
enemy. In case of retreat , ho could turn
the magic grip and be off In the other
direction In short order. There Is also in
invisible plunger brake attached , which
can be worked from the right handle grip.
A resident ot Kinsman. O. , has paid th >
government to secure a patent on an at
tached stand and lock for the bicycle.
The device provides for a. special attach
ment to the front forks. By means of
several bars the Invention , when In oper
ation , may leak all right , but the carryIng -
Ing of the attachment when not In use
would undoubtedly prove a bugbear to the
rider. One rod drops down to the ground
from the extension In the forks , and Is
supposed to keep the wheel In a standing
position. Another rod runs upward , paril-
lel with the front forks , one end of which Is
fastened to the head of the wheel , while
< H the other end a locking arrangement Is
attached , which encircles the tire and rim.
These are only u few ot the late treaks
In the line of bicycle construction upon
which Inventions have been allowed. They
have been selected because ot their unique
could be described
ness. Many other inventions
scribed not so strange In their makeup ,
but equally as impracticable for general
use. If the records of the patent offlc < ?
were searched enough could be written
about the strangeness of the ideas to fill
several good-sized volumes.

There Is a strong probability that the local
[ bicycle racing enthusiasts will be given an
i opportunity to witness seme flrat class In

1 for the winter , and If satisfactory arrange
ments can be made the ten-lap track , over
which some of the most exciting long
distance races ever held have been won. will
be rebuilt and put In the best possible shape
for racing. The turns will be raised so as
to permit a rider taking them at top speed
and a big professional six-day race will be
put on in which all of the fastest long
distance riders in the country will be Invited-
to participate. IrJoor racing has always
taken well with Omaha people and dozens
ot times the old Coliseum has been packed
with enthusiasts to witness the closing of
some interesting six-day race. It this
building is secured the first race will prob
ably be held about the middle of January.
The big professional long-distance race
which is to be held at Sladlson Square
Garden. New York , on December 6 , will
bring long-distance rWers to this country
from all over the world , and an effort will
be made to Induce them to ccme to this city.
Chicago will undoubtedly hold a long
distance race during the latter part of
Docember. and following this will come the
Omaha race. In order to secure these long
distance cracks It will be necessary for the
promoters to hang up at least $3,000 In
purses. It has been nearly three years
since Omaha bas had any indoor racing and

The local sportsmen have not been par
ticularly active during the past week , and
aside from a few small expwlltlora after
quail and ducks little jlj.oatlng has oc
curred. The prospective entertainment of
Thanksgiving day is arousing some Interest
and especially the big turkey ehoot which
will bo given by tbo Dupont Gun club. It
has been a number of years since the local
shots have enjoyed a real old-fashioned shoot
and there is every Indication that they will
turn out in force on this occasion. Several
out of town shots have also promised to
como In and take a hand In the proceedings
nnd the members who have the affair In hand
expect a big crowd at the wind1 up cf the
season.
There will be three distinct clarses In or
der that everyone may be accommodated.
There will bo sweepstakes at blue rocks.
In which turkeys will be offered as prizes
and the rille shots will be allowed to blaze
away at the turkey at 200 yards , and every
man can carry away his game. There will
also bo a target contest with 22 caliber rifles
at a 100-foot range. ,
Frank Parmelee. G. W. Loomls and Charley
Cola represented Omaha at the tlrst annual
tournament of the Arapahoe Gun club , which
occurred November 3 , 4 and 5. Tile tourna
ment was In charge of J. W. Den and W.
f. McKenna and was a thorough success
from the standpoint of the visitors. The
Omiha men were delighted with the treat
ment they received and most particularly
with the quail shoot to which they were
treated after the tournament. Dan. had prom
ised them the quail shoot of their lives and
ho kept his word. The three Omaha men
bagged eighty-six birds , of which forty-
eight were to the credit of one rifle. In the
three days' tournament they were in every
event , and Parmelee and Loomls carried off
rnoro than their share of the money.

and on each occasion It found a crowd of
boys Jind men watting to let drive. Qirlla
n namben of the birds have been killed , but
the lllfflit is iMtmlly too high to Allow the
promiscuous shooting to do effective execu

a three days' trip to Iowa after quill. Ho
says he never sw the birds more plentiful
than on this trip , but the tall corn and sitn >
flowers made them hard to get. Asld * from
a nlco bag of quail he killed a mink , which
has become something of a rarity In thc

The recent ealo In England of the cele
brated collie , Ormsktrk Emerald , for the enor
mous sum of 1GCO ( equal to $7,500) ) , must
set stock breeders to thinking , and ask
themselves If high cless dogs arc a profitable
Investment. In the caao of Mr. Thomas H.
Stretch of Ormsklrk-Lancashlro. colllra have
Indeed been a profitable Investment. Mr.
Stretch Is probably the largest and meat
succrastul breeder of rough-coated collies In
the universe. In 1S86 nlone ho secured
nearly 300 prizes , which must mean n small
fortune In Itself. Ho ha.s obtained the larg
est prices known In the history of collies ,
his tlrat crack being Champion Christopher ,
whom ho sold to an enterprising Yankee
from Philadelphia. Christopher was bought
by the Chestnut Hill kennela for 1,000
( $5,000) ) . A grandson of Christopher's was
bought , from Mr. Stretch by Plerpont Morgan ,
for 700 ( $3.500) ) . In addition to the nbava
the Lancashire man has sold Orrnsklrk
Golddtiat for 300 ( $2.500) ) , and Sweet Lls-
slo for 250 ( $1.250. ) Ho nlso sold
Edgbaston Marvel , at 7 weeks old , for $21 ,
and the last record we have of Marvel Is his
sale for 500 ( $2,600) ) . Another case of the
same kind Is Lady Christopher , whom ha
sold for $21. She afterward changed bandit
for 250 ( $1,230) ) . The above seven collies
realized $23,500. Verily , one would think
them stark mad. who would pay such prices
for a dog. but If the reidcr will tnke the
trouble to Investigate matters he would find
those collie breeders are very keen. Intelli
gent and cultured people , nho have J hobby ,
and while they sell their productions nt high
figures , they are ever ready to pay equally
high prices for better sp > cimcns than they
possess. Breeding "cracks" is like finding
diamonds , or gold nuggets In a mine or
Ilko breeding trotters. Winners "pop up"
where you would least expect , and many
poor men have become suddenly wealthy
from a lucky cress. Where could you sco
some of those highbred collies ?
There are several In town , nnd clceely re
lated to Ormsklrk Emerald. Rufford Orraond.
Edgbaston Marvel , etc. M.'aa Dickinson has
one. Mr. Philbln and William Paxton. Jr. ,
liavo one. There are many so-called high
bred collies In town , but the most of them
show that their ancestors were mixed up
with coyotes , at some time or other. What
is more lovely than a well marked golden
sable and white , with his white collar , boo >
and tips ( .of tall ) ?

The Sunday school superintendent ought to
bo constantly on the lookout for good ccw
stories with the good old morals.
It is said that a pastor recently startled his
congregation by the following announcement :
"Remember our quarterly meeting next Sun
day. The Lord will be with us during tha
morning service and the presiding elder la
the evening.
A clergyman , famous for his begging abil
ities , was once catechizing a Sunday-school.
When comparing himself the pastor of a
church to a shepherd acid his congregation
to the sheep , ho put the following question
to the children :
"What decs the shepherd do for the she p ? ' '
To the amusement of those present u small
boy in the front row piped out :
"Shears them ! "
A good-natured Angllom parson was riding -
ing one day In a jaunting car near the Lakes
oil Klllarney , whoso famous echoes sometimes
repeat a. sound as many an eight times.
Wishing to "take a rise out of the driver , "
the clergyman said :
"Do you know , Pat. there are none but
Protestant echoes here ? "
"No , sir , I nlver h'ard It and I dra't be
lieve It alther. " waa the reply.
"Well , you shall heir It very eotm , " said *
the Anglican. Arriving at a favorite spot
he called out softly , raising lia voice to loud
pitch on the last word : "Do you believe la
Plo Nona ? " and the echo replied :
"No , no ! No , N'o ! "
Pat was delighted at tbo Joke , and , rub
bing his hands gleefully , said :
"Bedad , when I drive ouo of the real
clargy here won't I have the Eoort out o'
him ? " And the parson rather doubted th
success of his rusa.
