Au effort is being made in Indianapolis to organize a state base ball league for the coming season, and the following towns have been selected for membership: Terre Haute, Kvansv I He, Indian-^ apolls, Munele, Auderson and Fort Wayne.

Only one set of plans has been submitted, and it doesn't seem that other architects have been consulted in the matter at all. It has not yet been decided when advertisements for bids will be made, but when Mr. Royse is able to be around again the matter will probably assume definite shape and the work will be pushed vigorously and economically.

When two firms claim that they have the best Bicycles on earth, or that there is none other so good as their particular little giggers it is about time to think that one of them is guilty of mtld prevarication. It may be that both parties are sincere In their statements and that they cannot conceive of any thing more oolossally and transcendentally perfect than the object of their laundation, but that is not their fault. I would not be guilty of such egotiem, no, no, not for a World's Fair pass. I do not claim that the Union P. D. Q. nor the Humber or Warwick or Steam's or Eagle or the Queen City wheels are the sum total of human Ingenuity, not by a big jug full, and why should I go to such a length when every thinking cyclist who has watched the several performances of these wheels, knows in his heart of hearts that for easy running, "get there" quality, these wheels are far ahead of the rest of the 1893 brood, one thing is certain, if you come to ray several Establishments, The Fair 325, Main, The Terre Haute Bicycle agency 715 Main, your interest will be mine, and rest assured you will receive the same fair and square treatment for: which I have established a reputation
