At Englewood, where the party debouched, they were joined by Louis Hopkins, and Fred Job, the latter a college (hum of Delos Thompson, and who officiated as a guide through tbe intrkaues of the city to the bucolic band of bicyclers. From Englewood the party rode to the Chicago Beach hotel, for breakfast, and then made the grand round of the boulevard and park system. The length of their ride, by the time they got back to Englewood in tbe evening, was nearly 50 miles. They met with a number of mishaps, and lost several hoars time in having broken bicycles mended.
