IIID CYCLE FEVER.'

After week of wobbling and sore joints Miss llobertm Havetall steered he* bicycle into the park.

The smooth roadway1 strengthened her confidence and sbe Increased her gpe^d considerably, when she reached the Lake Shore drive. For the first time since she had overcome her family's objections to the wheel as part of tho equipment of the modern girl Silas Koherta experienced the exhilaration which is the reward of merit to the persevering novico. She had gained her point only after a series of arguments and pleadings with each member of her father's household, for Miss Roberta's mother was of the old fashioned kind and held on to old fashioned ideas of things in general and her daughter Roberta in particular.

Probably Miss Roberta would not have joined the army of cyclists had not Mrs. Havetall's minister bought a wheel and then preached a sermon on *'A Sound Mind In a Sound Body," which Mrs. Havetall not only heard Sunday morning, but read in the next day's paper. Miss Roberta followed up the advantage, and the family surrendered when one morning the minister was seen holding his wife on a wheel while instructing her in tho gentle -art of maintaining her dignity and her balanoe at the same time. The next day Miss Roberta's wheel arrived.

Mrs. Havctall could not undesrtand her daughter's insistent desire for a bicycle. Miss Roberta possessed that most womanly of graces—winsomeness. Her voice was low and sweet. She had a few quaint mannerisms, which went well with the way she wore her hair and the simple drapery of her gowns. Not that she was at all old fashioned, for she waa every inch a woman, and studied her fashion plates more than she read the newspapers. She was given to sash curtains and dollies, and when she lunched In the tea rooms of the dry goods stores, when shopping down town,

Bhe

only took the edge off of her

hunger by eating small dishes of salad, minute portions of ices and slim wedges of angel fooo But she ljfred near Lincoln park, and the bacilli of the bicycle fev^r found her, and she fell a victim to the epidemic. That night she shocked her mother and surprised her fnthcr by asking him for a bicycle.

While learning to ride in the back yard she brought out her bicyole costume, and eho wore It for the first time the afternoon she dared to wheel in the park. It was as pretty and attractive as herself. The dress was of dark blue serge, which fell to her ankles. Ovur a skirt waist of cheviot she wore a coquettish Jacket, and on her head was a scarlet Tain O'Shan tor, with a white ball in the center. She sat gracefully In the saddle, and aa hex dress fell almost to tbe pedals she seemed to more without effort, for her skirt screened all muscular exertions. Men admired her immensely as she glided by, for she was pretty, graceful, and, above all, womanly. Sheacame home all enthusiasm and spent an liour cleaning the dust from her bicycle and studying out Its mechanism. Her father taught her how to pump the pne imatlo tires full of wind, so as to secure ti»e requisite degree of '"resilience," and the illustrated talogue gave her the names of the various parts of the bicycle's anatomy. For a month Miss Roberta's Tam O'Shanter and hor blue serge dress cainc almost dally to tho park. She confined her rides to a few streets around her home and to tho park, and the repetition of the soenes in them became monotonous. She had become acquainted with half a dozen girls of hor own ago who were wheelwomen, and one afternoon they made up a party to rido out to Sheridan road. Miss Roberta had developed some speed, but had never tested It with the other girls. The opportunity was offered when they were well nut on the Sheridan road. She was challenged bv one of her companions and won the raco easily. "You will be a scorcher some day," shouted a young man who had followed them on a wheel. Miss Roberta smiled at him as he f! -died past her. She had learned that bicyes develop good fellowship, and she was often surprised to find herself chatting with a perfect stranger, whom she would r~* notice should she meet him elsewhere than on a wheel. Her friends complimented her on hor success as a sprinter, a» one of them said: "My brother tolu me that you had good speed. Ho saw you tearing down tho Lake Shore drive the other day. But you will never be able to bccome a crack rider unless you shorten your dress or wear divided skirts."

l'Oh,

I have no desire to become a fast

rider," answered Miss Roberta, giving her head a decided shake. "I enjoy wheeling, and of course it is nice to race with you girls out here, but I do not think it is proper for women to race in public or anything of that sort," and she dropped behind tho others, so that they would not think she had ambitions of the "soorcher" kind.

A week after the race Mrs. Havetall was again shocked by her daughter, who appeared before her with her dress several inches shorter than before and a pair of

^Etan O'Shanter had boon east aside for a long peaked jockey cap, and Miss Roberta walked with a saucy swing toward her wheel. "The wind catches yonr dress so," sho replied to her mother's exclamation of surprise. "All the girls are wearing this sort of costume. The long peak keeps tho sun out of your eyes and the wind from your face when you sprint."

That night Miss Roberta came homo wearing the badge of the Cross Country Bicycle olub. We rode out to Evanston and back again," she said as she sat down to the supper table. "I led all the way. Not one of the girls oould keep up with mo, and some of the men had hard work to pace me. I'm no scorcher, but I'd have to start from scratch if I raced any of the girls, sure."

Mr*. HayetaH was speechless for a time. Bhe gaiMxl blankly at Lw dmglitor, whn«ro hair was half way down her back and whoso face was as brown as a berry. "MenP she finally gasped. Roberta Havetall, what men do you mean?" "Why, the mon of the Cross Countries,"

safdMtss "Roberta," "V4I a"* a member of that Qiub." Vfc "But where did you beoome acquainted with them?" '"Why, in the park and on the road. They are real nice fellows, and one of them is to pace me tomurow and another is to pull watch on me."

Mrs. Havetall feebly shook her head. It was beyond her comprehension. She realize! how vain were her efforts to understand tho now developments and subsided.

That night Miss Roberta sat up late, and tho next afternoon when she mounted her wheol sho wore divided skirts. They were a great success, for the dress did not wrap itself around the machine when the wind blew uu tho quarter, and sho astonished tho man who timed her by oomlng within speaking distance of the road reoord for women. He spoke of her at the olub that night. '•That little Havetall is a good one," he said. She needs a little training and coaching, and she'll do for anything from a mile to a century. We ought to develop her and enter her for a Pullman or the Elgin road race.. She's almighty pretty, and I'll back her to win, for she's a hummer and no mistake."

It was arranged that Miss Roberta should wear tho colors of the Cross Countries at a little road raoe whioh was to oorne off the next week, and Miss Roberta did not say

k,No"

when she was asked to

enter tho race. Mrs. Havetall saw but little of her daughter that week, for when Roberta was not locked in her room she was out on her wheel and always came home hot, disheveled and dusty. The day of the raoe she left the house early, carrying a bulky package.

Four young women made the raoe, and Miss

Roberta

Havetall, in wide, baggy

bloomers, carried the cherry and yellow of the Cross Countries across the line 100 yards in advance. She was lifted from the saddle and overcome by the enthusiasm of the moment gave the club's yell with vigor as sh was carried around on the shoulders of the Jubilant members of the club.

The next morning her father read in the papers that Bob Havetall of the Cross Countries had broken, the record for women in tho 10 mile road race. His daughter, worn out, was still in bed when he went to business. He had notioed a great change coming over her. He took the paper with him, for he did not want his wife to Bee the account of Bob Havetall's triumph.

Mrs. Havetall had beoome aooustomed to bloomers, because they had suddibly grown common, and she felt that her daughter would soon appear In a pair of them. When Miss Roberta walked through tbe sitting room with her new hloomors on, her mother said nothing, for, after all, they looked, from the side, very muoh like tbe short dress and yellow leggings. Tho shock came when Miss Roberta wheeled away from her and she caught the rear view.

Before another month had gone Miss Roberta had become a full blown scorcher. She was th- pride of the club, and Mr. Havetall's front step became a gathering place for all the cyclists in the neighborhood. In time the father and mother became used tn the bicycle slang and racing terms and even to the cigarettes which the young men smoked, and Miss Roberta had never enjoyetL better health. This was some recompense for the loss of tlje daughter of the house, for Miss Roberta was seldom at home. She attended all the track and road races in the city, either as a looker on or as a participant. Her name was often found in the racing columns of the daily papers, and in time Mr. Havetall felt something akin to pride when he read of her success and counted her medals. Bob, as she was called by all the wheelmen who knew her, had overcome her father's prejudice regarding Sunday outings, and she often had a Sunday morning spin before going to church. Sometimes she would go out before the family was awake. So one beautiful Sunday morninf when Bob did not appear for breakfast n-thing was thought of it.

The serm was shorter than usual that morning, and Mr. and Mrs. Havetall concluded to walk home through the park. Several blocks from the church they found the sidewalk choked by a crowd before a saloon. On a chair near the curb stood a man with a watch in his hand, calling out the timo of the arrival of dusty, dirty, tired out wheelmen who came from the north. Mr. Havetall gathered from the talk that th men who staggered up to the saloon had just ridden 100 miles and had scored a century. He was about to push through the enrprfl when a loud oheor broke from he men who were gathered In tho middle of the street. "Hero she comes! Get out of the way, you fellows! Gangway there! Make gangway, for Bob Havetall is ooming down strong!"

Mr. Havetall fought his way through tho crowd to the center of the street, and the next instant Miss Roberta rode up. Her face was white with fatigue and streaked with dirt and perspiration. One cheek was bleeding, for she had fallen against a stone on the road. Her lips were caked, and her mouth was partly opened, showing her dry tongue. Her cap •was thrust back on her head, and her hair had escaped and was tumbled over her shoulders. All of this her father took in as sho came up to the line. But something rose in his throat when ho saw that his daughter, who had been so gentle and winsome a few months before, was now finishing a century to tho checrs and wild applause of a crowd of men in front of a saloon and wearing knickerkockors which fitted her tender limbs as tightly as those worn by tbe men.

He looked no farther, but oateblng her in his arms as she fell from tho bicyole he gave her to her mother, and then with a mighty spring jumped upon the delicate wires of the wheels, smashing and bending them bejond hope of redemption. An empty hack passed. Hailing it, he placed his wife and daughter in it. That night Miss Roberta Havetall, after weeping for an hour on her father's shoulders, prom'sed to give up tbe wheel. The next morning she crept down stairs, found the morning paper, and after reading every word of the paragraph which told that Bob Hayetall bad made she century tn 8:12, breaking tho record, she slipped back to her room, cried a bit and tben cut her knickerbockers, bloomers, divided skirts and first blue serge dress to shreds and came down to breakfast cured and In her right mind.— Chicago Reoord.

Elevator Biding.

A physician advises that it is a good plan to ride up in an elevator, but to take the stairs for the descent. Walking up a flight of stairs is hard and sometimes risky, as In the ease of persons with weak lungs, defective respiratory organs or heart dis c. But going down stairs hurts not and is gotld exercise. Going down rapidly Is even abetter thing, as it shakes up the anatomy without any dan* ger of overexertion.

~:.V* TJERRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MAIL, OCTOBER 6,1894.

The Right and the Wrong Way of Keeping Scandal* Out of the Newspapers. It would be hard indeed if we oould not get a laugh out of all these horrid scandals that «»ar society's face, and it has come at last—-broad, hearty and irrepressibla

The good people of Kewpo*t"^D°ti the old Newportera, hut tbe people who have followed in their train—are so incensed by the reports published about the misdoings of the Four Hundred that they have organized a Society For the Suppression of Newspaper Notoriety.

Dear, comical, old Elhridge T. Gerry is at the head of tbe new society, and it looks as if he would have time to attend to nothing else.

The purpose of the society is to pre vent the publication in New York and Boston (other cities don't count) of matters that are purely personal to the Four Hundred and of no publio interest

If Mrs. Stevens' maid takes advantage of Mr. Tom Cushing'B valet, that is legitimate news, and no objection will be made to its publication, but if Mrs. Stevens herself should cast sheep's eyes at Mr. Cushing, or if Mr. A- should compromise Mr. D. 's wife, or Mr. C. sue his wife for divoroe, or Mrs. D. go wrong with a dude—these are matters that conoern nobody hut the culprits themselves and their most intimate friends.

No wonder the laugh is loud and long at these good people's expense. Did it never occur to dear old Gerry and his younger friends on the sooial toboggan slide that a "Society For the Suppression of Vioe In the Four Hundred" would out at the very root of the evil of whioh they complain, whereas the step they are taking now can only trim off some of the topmost boughs?

There is without doubt a certain amount of reckless newspaper writing going on which every one abominates— and every one roads.

This writing keeps pace with the doings of the day. It is of en inaocurate, vulgar and malioious but, on the other hand, there is so much social evil doing that never finds its way Into print at all that the score is pretty even up to date.

I could mention the names of hundreds of prominent New York and Boston families who have never had cause to complain of a single line or word printed to their derogation.

And why? Simply because they have never given the opportunity. While not making a plea for the society reporter or the scandal loving editor I am sufficiently familiar with their methods to know that they would just as lief print good news of prominent people as bad news.

Bad news sells better than good news, of course. In times of war, tempest, famine, fire and flood the demand for newspapers doubles and trebles.

So it does in times of great social dis-

The collapse of Duncan, Sherman & Co., the failure of Grant & Ward, the elopement of Herbert Pell and Mrs. Kate Kernochan, the divorce of Mr. and Mrs. 'Fernando Yznaga and the subsequent marriage of both, the Drayton scandal, the Vanderbilt imbroglio, tho Gould fiasco—all these stirring incidents in social life, and thousands of others for which I haven't space, constitute the gossip of the day whioh i3 on every one's lips, and which can no more je kept out of the newspapers than a duck can be kept out of water or Ward McAllister out of print

That is why I advise kind old Gerry and his pretty playmates to begin to trim ship before they yell that they are overpowered by water.

I cannot predict any success for the new society with the object of suppressing bad news about fashionable people.

Murder will out—so will adultery, drunkenness, cheating at oards, dishonorable indebtedness and all the other vices to which flesh is heir.

As I said before, a society that condemns publicity has only to ponder for a moment upon all it does that is not printed and be grateful on its marrow bones that such matters are still personal and have not yet become of public interest. —Cholly Knickerbocker in New York Recorder.

A WONDERFUL OLD COUPLE.

A Rhode Island Pair Who Lived Together Seventy-eight Tears. Lawton Sherman, who died at Providence tho other day, aged 99 years, and his wife, who survives him, were tho most remarkable couple, in respect of the duration of their marital relations, probably in the annals of Rhode Island. Mrs. Sherman is 99 years old, and her health is rapidly failing. The oouple, both of them natives of Exeter, were married in this place on March 17, 1816. Some years later they removed to Providence, and Mr. Sherman engaged in business in that city. They had seven children, two girls and five boys, and four of the children are still living.

In 1891 the venerable oouple celebrated their diamond wedding, keeping open house all day, and a little army of friends called to see them, coming from all parts of the plantations. At the time of the old man's death the oouple bad dwelt together 78 years.

Mr. Sherman was a mason and whitewasher, and it is an interesting fact that in the past 20 years he had whitewashed the walls and ceilings of one dwelling in Cranston street, Providence, each season without an exception. He never was ill, and he died of old age. His wife has been all her life almost equally healthy and vigorous. Both lived in the administration of every president of the United States. Mrs. Sherman ras born on June 7, 1795.

It was a remarkable gathering of people that attended the old man's funeral in his modest and quaint little antique low browed cottage in Providence^ Th* were his aged wife, four children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

For Amateur 6busier*.,

Any one who wishes to insert ground glass panes into windows needed only to admit light can do so at the smallest expense by following these directions from The Housewife:

A

pieoe of putty

as soft as dough must be tied very tightly into a muslin rag. This olosely compressed ball needs then to be rubbed rapidly over tbe glass to be decorated until fin even, delicate white film grows over it When the film of putty so applied is beginning to dry, a coat of white varnish should be laid on, and in a few hours a wonderful imitation of ground glass will be the result In case the amateur glazier wishes to work a pattern cm the panes by marking through a cardboard stenoil design before the varnish is laid on little patterns of stars, diamonds or dots can be clearly drawn out on the glass.

The Great Water Wheel# at Niagara. The watjer wheels are not all of the same size, Those employed in the transmission bf power to the machinery of the paper mill were, when they were put in, the largest .ever made. They were capable of generating as much as 1,000 horsepower each. But they are mere pygmies in comparison with those whioh are to supply power to the great dynamos. Each of these has been built with the purpose of developing as muoh as 5,000 horsepower, whioh is about the power required to drive an ordinary ocean steamship from 12 to 14 knots an hour. There are, to be three of thesa mammoth turbines, and their handmaids, the dynamos, are sympathetically colossal in their capacity to generate electricity.—McClure's Magazine^,

No mystery has ever compared witb that of human life. It has been the le^irj« subJjwl of nrofesslooal research and study All ages. -But notwithstanding this fact it is not generally known that the seat of life is located iu the up* per part of toe spinal cord, near the base of the brain, and so sensl* tive is this portion of the nervous system thateven 'the prick of a needle will cause instant death.

Recent discoveries have demonstrated that all the organs of the body are under the con* trol of the nerve centers, located in or near tho base of the brain, and that when these are they ™i»i»
