FIFTY MILES I AROUND NEW YORK A BOOK OF MAPS AND DESCRIPTIONS OF T^IE BEST ROADS, STREETS AND ROUTES FOR CYCLISTS AND HORSEMEN / PREPARED UNDER DIRECTION OF THE LEAGUE OF AMERICAN WHEELMEN (New York Sta te Di vision) . TWENTIETH THOUSAND PRICE, rWO DOLLARS RER CORY Copyright, 1896, by The New York State Division of the League of American Wheelmen "1 Please Read Carefully ^ To the riembers of the New York Division : We hope and intend to make these • road-books the very best of all road-books, and have exerted our zeal and labor to make this first edition at least acceptable. The Editor realizes that it contains many imperfections, but it is put forth as a promising experiment to prove the value of this form of tour book, and to form a basis for subsequent work in which the errors and short-comings of the present edition may be avoided. The book has been compiled entirely from voluntary contributions from League members, many of whom reside at a considerable distance from portions of the routes covered by them, and the details of the mapping have been worked up from a mass of other data, the separ- ate parts of which seem to contradict each other in some particulars. We earnestly request that members will freely criticise this work in all its details, and inform the chairman, clearly and at length, of the errors and omissions which come to their notice, so that at the close of the riding season the committee may take up the work of revision with data that will make next year's road book a model in every respect. We also request that all members having knowledge of good routes not included in this book (located within the territory covered by the index maps) will send accurate data of distances and description so that such routes may be included in future editions. The present committee claims no credit for devising the method of mapping routes, it having been inaugurated by the Road Book Committee of 1896. The committee is indebted for much information to the following named gentlemen: Col. E. P. North, Department of Public Works, New York City; N. P. Lewis and Geo. W. Tillson, Depart- ment of City Works, Brooklyn; Henry P. Morrison, County Engineer, Richmond County; T. Harry Holmes, F. Adee HuLST, Frank P.

INDEX TO PLACES. IMPORTANT NOTE.— The places named in this index are only those shown on route maps. Many other places are named on the index maps in order to show their location as related to the several routes.

HOTELS."— It has come to be the practice for proprietors of various third-class hotels and road house groggeries, and occasionally for more pretentious hosts, to display, without authority, signs bearing the " L. A. W." initials or insignia. 1 am informed also that certain hotel proprietors holding official certificate of appointment are ignoring their contract requirements, and refuse to give L. A. W. members a lower rate than is charged to non-members. These proprietors of L. A. W. hotels have received large advertising from the L. A. W. and have agreed in writing to give L. A. W. members from jo to 30 per cent, lower rates than are charged to other wheehnen. They further agree to forfeit ^30 to our division for every violation of this contract. These two offenders, the fraud proprietor and the forgetful proprietor, are the men we are after. Please report them as fast as discovered to ISAAC B.

OUR road book committee is still at work, making new maos, adding new routes, correcting, revising and in a patient, painstaking way, doing everything possible to make these road-books the very best on earth. They are a com- mittee of voluntary workers who at odd times have some trifles of personal business to attend to and so it may not be always pos- sible f or-them to answer grumbling letters which come to them from L. A. W. members in lieu of salary. What they want is the help of every intelligent rider who will carefully prepare and contribute a new, pleasant or popular route, or who can send printed detail maps (drawn on large scale) showing the roads and streets in any of the towns within the territory cov- ered b V. the index maps. Don't tell the chairman that this book is wrong and that you could have made abetter one with your eyes shut. All this he knows, and you are just the man he's been looking for. Write him a friendly, encouraging letter, praising the good points of his faithful work, and send him carefully prepared sketch of at least one excellent route with notes of distances between all prominent points, crossroads and turns, and see to it that these distances are accurately slated from cyclometer measurements. In no way can you spend a more pleasant and satisfactory day than by taking a stroll on your wheel in quest of new matter for the next edition. If you contribute a new and acceptable route it will bear your name on the printed map page when it appears. If the new route contains features which are specially famous or beautiful, or of historical note, write a description of these features, as tersely and gracefully as you can and send them to the chairman with your map sketch. In making a sketch map of the route dorC t confuse your notes by attempting to get too much on one sheet. Better use a dozen pages for a ten mile route if necessary, and have them all clear. It will be easier to make and vastly easier to understand. Finally, don't attempt to cover a route that has already been sent to the committee. If you have a good route in mind write a line to Mr. Meserole and ask him whether it is included among his notes. That is the sort of letter he delights to receive and will promptly answer. Fraternally, ISAAC B. POTTER, Chief Consul. ELECTION DAY IS COMING. IF you wish to know how the Senator and Members of Assembly who represent your district stand on the Good Roads Question, write a postal card inquiry to the Chief Consul. Get the wheelmen voters together in your town and let the " statesmen " know you are alive on election day. We may catch larks if ever the heavens fall but we'll never have good roads till we elect men to office who are broad and brainy enough to know that a good road is a good thing for everybody. — ; Unionville Kensico ^.^-!f5^ \J INDEX NEW YORK CITY and SUBURBS and WESTCHESTER CO.

Important Note — Every League member is requested to notify the Chief Consul of every violation of official contract by a League hotel proprietor which may come to his notice. Each of these proprietors has made a sealed contract with our State Division, in which he agrees to keep a clean and hospitable house and to supply good meals. He further agrees and represents that the rates mentioned in connection with his. hotel in the following list are his regular rates to transient guests and that he will allow a discount or rebate (to League members only, and only to League members on presentation of unexpired membership ticket), amounting to a certain percentage named in contract. These percentages of discount are mentioned in the following alphabetical list. These hotels have been widely advertised by the L. A. W., and League members are exclusively entitled to the benefit of these dis- counts. Each hotel proprietor agrees to forfeit the sum of $50 in case he allows similar discounts to wheelmen who are not members of the L. A. W., in or case he violates his contract in ■ -^ny other substantial particular. The Chief Consul would be ipleased to receive the fullest particulars of any case where the [proprietor fails to discriminate in favor of L. A. W. members (or violates his contract in any other respect. In the following alphabetical list the following abbreviations are used: C, Consul; H, Hotel; R, Repair Shop. Appointment of Consuls, hotels and repair shops will be further extended wherever the League may be benefitted by further appointments. The figures annexed to the title of each hotel refer to the prices upon which discount is computed. The first sum given •is the regular charge per day, next the ordinary charge for breakfast, then the dinner charge, then the supper charge, then the ordinary price charged for lodging, and then the percentage of discount from these prices to which League members will be entitled on presenting their membership tickets. For example, if you read " The Pines, $2.00, .50, .50, .50, .50, 20^" you will understand that the hotel called " The Pines" makesa customary charge of $2.00 per dayand acharge ■of 50 cents each for breakfast, dinner, supper and lodging, and that in settling your bill at that hotel you will be entitled to 20^ discount from those prices.

There is little doubt that by far the largest number of active cyclers find their pleasure in touring. The pottering cycler, who never ventures far from home, has no idea of the enjoy- ments to be found in country rambles on the wheel. The touring field is practically open to any rider who has time to devote to it, and the number of cyclers who thus spend their summer holiday is yearly increasing. These holiday tourists, guided by past experience, or by the advice of their more practical fellows, plan their trips with an eye to personal comfort, and after a few days of enjoyable riding, return home invigorated and instructed. The first step a prospective tourist should take, after he has acquired a sufficient knowledge of his wheel and confidence in himself, is to join the League of American Wheelmen, an association formed to promote the interests of cyclers in general and tourists in particular. The initiation fee is one dollar, and the annual dues a like amount (payable in advance) and the writer, having filled up the necessary application blank, will have to wait a longer or shorter time for his ticket., usually about three weeks. Selecting Route. — This matter having been duly arranged, .the next thing is to plan the tour and select the route, which can best be done with the aid of the various road books and maps issued by the State Divisions or recommended by the Touring Department. Each Day's Journey. — It then becomes necessary to decide as to the average day's journey, and on thispointit is necessary to utter a very emphatic warning against the error into which so many tourists fall, of fixing a ridiculously high standard which they find it practically impossible to carry out. A large number of beginners fancy they can ride with ease from sixty to one hundred miles daily for a week or so at a stretch, and on this basis plan their tours, with the result that they either break down utterly and are compelled to take the- train home., or else they spend a miserable " holiday," riding hard against time during the whole trip, thus converting what should have been a pleasant outing into a period of incessant hard labor and discomfort. The experienced tourist, on the other hand, rather shortens the day's journey, being satisfied with from forty to fifty mileSj and generally allows a spare day in the middle of the week, in case of delay by rain or other causes, or a desire to take in some pleasant side trip or object of interest, thus letting him- self off as easily as possible with a view to the more complete enjoyment of the tour as a whole. For a beginner even shorter distances are advisable-at first; for a man who can ride his sixty or seventy miles right off, will find forty miles a day for a week quite a different matter, and considerable of a task until he has learned by experience how to economize and save his physical powers. Companions. — Except in the cases of some peculiarly con- stituted individuals, a solitary trip is a very slow performance, and the presence of at least one companion brightens things up materially; yet, the rider had better go alone than journey with a disagreeable companion, or one very much slower than himself. Two fairly equal riders greatly assist each other in maintaining a good rate of progression, as when one lags the other brings him along, and when this man tires the other has perhaps recovered his pace. Large parties are scarcely so satisfactory, especially if club rules are rigidly enforced, as this course means that the whole party shall proceed at the pace of the slowest rider, which soon becomes very irksome to the faster men of the party, causing grumbling and discontent. Under such circumstances, loose riding should always be per- mitted, and, if possible, the slower men should be started somewhat earlier than their more speedy companions. Again, in large parties, in order to be sure of good accommodations, it IS necessary that arrangements be made ahead for meals and lodging. This entails a considerable amount of care and labor upon the promotor or manager of the tour, and renders each day's journey inflexible, which oftentimes results in con- siderable discomfort to the entire party, as circumstances frequently arise which make delays advisable or render progress inconvenient. My personal experience has been that two are a good number, four are better, and six the maximum for comfort and enjoyment. Preliminary Training. — The intending tourist should not start out without some sort of training and preparation for the work before him, as this course often produces most unfortun- ate results. The mere task of sitting in the saddle for several hours daily, is painful to one who has not taken the precaution of undergoing previous practice and seasoning, and for this reason, if for no other, it is advisable that for some time before the day of departure a regular course of riding should be followed, at least three times weekly, and this riding should occupy an hour or more, and should include a little practice at hill work as well as some sharp dashes along the level. Nothing like high training is required, but something more than the easy dawdling which so many riders are fond of indulging in is necessary. It is a good plan to fix upon a stated route, say twelve or fifteen miles, and to ride over it three or four times a week, the trip being carefully timed, and the rider trying to do better on each occasion. This will seem to many somewhat of a task, but it will vastly develop the muscles, improve the wind, and increase the rider's powers for average work. If this course be carefully followed out for a fortnight or three weeks before the tour, it will not only increase the rider's capabilities, but as a natural result add decidedly to his personal comfort. It is scarcely necessary to remark that when touring the highest possible pace should not be attempted, but a fair, steady and regular pace adhered to throughout; and this steady and regular pace will be easier to maintain if the rider has learned the knack of going a great deal faster. This is the theory of training, and it applies to the tourist as well as to the racing man. Luggage. — The rider having developed his powers by careful practice, it will next be for him to consider what are the necessaries to be carried for his comfort, or sent to various places where he may stop en route, and here again great latitude must be allowed, as tastes differ most notably, one rider regarding a tooth-brush and a piece of soap ample equip- ment for a week's journey, while another will be loaded down with packages and needless impediments, which contain necessaries from his standpoint. The rider of a bicycle will learn with experience how to carry sufficient for comfort, which is a happy medium consisting of not too much, nor yet too little, but just enough for all reasonable requirements; and such an equipment can readily be carried on a bicycle, and renders the tourist independent of the troubles and annoyances Shown under suit.

But the prudent rider, or one who has once suffered from the inconvenience and discomfort of being without, will take care to provide himself with at least one complete change of undergarments; one of the bestan.l most convenient forms of which will be found in the full iersev athletrc ""oodr ^^^"^ ^^^^^^e, sold by all dealers in cycling and ..rtJ^^'^f^ ^''^ ^'^^ ,^°^\ ""P ^°^° ^ ^^^y s"^^" compass, and when put on it completely clothes the body from neck to feet in dry woolen attire, which maybe worn alone if necessary and is, by all odds, when so worn, the most comfortable and serviceable riding suit-and over which damp outer garments may be put on again without danger from cold, if not without sonie litt e discomfort. It can also be used to sleep in at night, instead of using an ordinary night-shirt, alwavs a bulky matter when space is limited, and the fact that woolen under- clothing IS a protection, in case of damp sheets, is another argument recommending its adoption by the tourist. The kit is thus reduced by making one garment serve the place of two or more and at the same time the weight to be carried is lessened, an important factor to be considered in studying the convenience of the rider, for even the strongest and most sturdy of cyclers will do well not to overweight himself in this direction. From my experience, the following is ample for a tour of two weeks or even longer, and can be readily carried on a bicycle; J he rider, when in the saddle, should wear a thin or medium weight merino undershirt, without sleeves • a pair of thm cotton socks, which not only keep the feet clean, but also prevent chafing and soreness; a complete jersey suit, consist- ing of a high-neck, long-sleeve jersey, and a pair of full tights- low shoes with stout soles, and a cap or other suitable head- gear, at the option of the wearer. For riding, the jersey suit has many advantages and no equal for comfort, being easy giving full and unrestricted freedom to all the limbs and muscles, warm m cool weather, cool in hot weather and dry- ing very quickly if the wearer chances to be caught in the rain. 1 nave seen fellow tourists on a warm summer day plunge into a cooling stream, jersey suit and all, and dry quickly after resuming the saddle. This practice is not to be recommended tor, while It may be extremely convenient and refreshing for the time being, it is conducive to colds and rheumatism. t>tout soles to a tourist's shoes are essential to comfort when an occasional bit of walking is necessary, thin soles not only nurting the feet but occasionally producing such soreness as will temporarily lame the wearer. In addition to what the tourist has on when clothed as above he should also carry the following outfit : Uniform of cycling coat and knee breeches, extra jersey suit, two pairs of socks one undershirt, from three to six handkerchiefs, one neck handkerchief or scarf, comb, tooth-brush, razor, etc if neces- sary, a small sponge, and a small chamois or soft leather bag with a stout drawing string, made like a tobacco pouch. If preferred, the extra jersey suit may be omitted, and a flannel riding shirt and pair of long woolen stockings substi- tuted, m which case attention is called to the new self-support- mg stockings now generally sold by dealers, and whieh are %om ITslanb THE CYCLISTS' . . .

Having purchased two pieces of rubber cloth, of the quality known as dull finish rubber sheeting, each about one yard square, proceed to roll the things up tightly in two packages, each about twenty inches long and as small in circumference as it is possible to get them, placing the coat and breeches in one and the extra jersey suit and underclothing in the other, the other articles being conveniently divided between the two. Roll as tightly as possible — they cannot be too tight or snug — and wrap up securely, each in a piece of the rubber cloth, commencing at one corner, that the ends may be more firmly tucked in and made water-tight, and two sausage-shaped parcels is the result, which should be fastened with stout rubber bands or straps to prevent unrolling. The tourist, thus equipped, if overtaken by rain, may regard a wetting as a matter of no serious consequence, he being clad in woolen garments and his luggage protected by its rubber covering. But to proceed. One of these packages — and it should be that which contains the coat and pants — is attached in front of the handle-bar by means of a good luggage carrier, care being taken that the action of the brake is not interferred with. Arriving at the noonday resting place, if it is necessary or desirable to appear in full regalia, the coat and breeches are easily got at and slipped on over the jersey riding suit, the neck handkerchief — which should be in the same package — being neatly adjusted, the tourist is presentable to appear in any dining room. The other package, which should contain such things as will not be required until the day's journey is finished, is likewise attached to the handle-bar of the machine, just below the first package, by means of the luggage carrier. The chamois bag before mentioned is to contain smoking materials, odds and ends, not forgetting a needle and thread, frequently most useful; and such an amount of ready change as the tourist requires for incidentals during the day, the bulk of his finances being securely fastened in the pocket of his coat and wrapped with it in the bundle. This bag is safely fastened at the end of one of the handles of the machine, preferably the left, as most riders dismount and stand on that side; it is handily gotten at and it is most useful in many ways. To the other handle many fasten a handkerchief, but if a loop of twine be fixed to the sponge, just large enough to easily pass over the handle, and the sponge be kept clean and moist by frequent washings at the springs and wells en route, this will be found most refreshing and more satisfactory on a hot day, besides being a great economy in handkerchiefs. There is considerable knack, if not skill, in doing up the parcels nicely, which can only be acquired by experience or by being taught by the experienced. An old hand will put a great deal into a very small compass, but the novice will generally make a great deal, in the way of a package, out of a very little, and the reason usually is that the articles are not folded properly before rolling. All the luggage may be conveniently carried on the handle- bar, and it is recommended that the luggage be divided in two parcels for convenience en route. For those who, when touring, will insist upon carrying an immense amount of luggage, there is no excuse, as luggage can be sent to the various points through the usual channels if one will insist in having an elaborate wardrobe. A rider is not supposed, even by the most punctilious host, to carry a ward- robe of this description, and if a host really does expect this the guest had better go himself \>y train, or forward his portman- teau on before him.

Examine Machine Before Starting. — The tourist, before he gets away from home, will do well to look over his machine, which should be done a sufficienttime before the day of depart- ure to allow for the repair of any break or damage which may be discovered. Every part should be carefully and thoroughly overhauled, the head adjusted, each nut and spoke critically examined, the brake particularly being looked to, and strict search made for any flaw or crack or unexpec'.ei wear, as the slightest weakness in this important point may endanger the life or limb of the rider. The bearings should be carefully adjusted if any looseness is apparent, but they should never be screwed up so that there is no side shake at all, as the balls are thus liable to be broken. If the bearings are dirty or gritty they should be dosed with kerosene, which should be put in with an ordinary oil can and the wheels rotated rapidly, when the coagulated oil will be liquefied and the grit be brought out with it. After the exudations from the bearings have been wiped off, they should be carefully oiled up anew with good oil and all the kerosene worked out. The tool bag should be looked over, and contain an adjustable wrench, an oil can care- fully filled with good oil, a piece of adhesive tire tape, a yard or two of stout string, and some cloth in which to wrap tools to prevent their rattling. Last, but not least, the tires should be examined all around, and should any portion, no matter how small, be loose, it should be at once attended to and made sound to undergo with safety the work before it. That you will, take with you a compact and convenient repair kit is, of course, understood. PRACTICAL POINTS. Tlie Fit of a Wheel. — One of the principal things in the choice of a bicj'cle is a proper fit. There is at present a dis- position upon the part of cyclers generally to ride a machine with the highest frame that they can possibly reach. This is as much of an error as riding a machine with a very low frame or a cramped reach. While men generally are prone to go to one extreme women up to the present appear to have gone to the other, and in a majority of cases have been riding wheels with too short a reach. How awkward a woman appears when riding a wheel that is too low for her. Her knees pump up and down in front of her and make her look as if she were trying to walk up the side of a wall. Besides that, it is harder to propel a wheel that is so low as not to give proper action to the legs, and wears the rider out much sooner. A good test for the height is this; Have the wheel high enough so that when the rider sits in the saddle he can just reach with his heel the pedal when in the lowest position it can reach in making a revolution. That distance, with the toe instead of the heel on the pedal, gives the proper reach and swing to the leg and enables the muscles to be used to best advantage. The average man can stretch with comfort and safety the 23 and 24-inch frame, and very few riders should go higher than the 25-inch, the adjusting of the saddle will give any extra stretch beyond what the 25-inch frame gives that may be necessary. — American Cycling.

Make a number of cuts half an inch deep around the edge and bend the wire down, making a continuous shouiaer, and set it in the can, thus making a raised false bottom. Coil up the chain on it and pour in ben- zine till it is covered to the depth of halLan inch. In a couple of minutes, agitate the chain by pushing it from side to side of the can. Then let it stand quietly for several minutes till the loosened grit and grease have been led to the bottom, when you can liit your chain perfectly clean out of the clear benzine above the wire. Pinch the edge of the can to form a spout, so you may, if economically minded, pour off the clear benzine to be used again. — Selected. Inflating the Tire. — Generally speaking, a small tire re- quires more pressure than a large one, if it is to carry the same weight ; and a given tire requires more pressure in proportion as the rider is heavy. A tire should always contain enough air to keep its rim from the ground. If, in riding, you feel the slightest jar as your wheel runs over ordinary obstacles, it is because there is not sufficient air pressure. There is no danger of bursting a tire, as many riders seem to fear, when the small hand pump is used, and even with the best foot pump, only the very weakest tires could be burst, while any good road tire will hold more than double the pres- sure which you could get into it with a foot pump. Don't let the air out of a tire when not in use, " to save it." It is much better off, when standing, to be well inflated. In considering the comfort of both the rider and the care of the tire, it is important that enough pressure be maintained to prevent the outer and inner parts of the air tube from coming in contact. As this depends upon the diameter of tire and weight of rider, each one must settle it for himself; no rule embodying pounds per square inch would be of general use. An extensive observation has found a great many tires which were very much too soft, while we have rarely seen one that was too hard. When the rider is sitting still upon the saddle and the wheels are resting on a smooth surface, the floor should be touched by the tire for a distance of about four inches ; this will bring the edge of the rim within seven-eighths of an inch of the ground, allowing for the thickness of tire. This will leave nearly three- fourths of an inch for the extra compression caused by striking stones or other narrow obstacles. — L, A. W. Bulletin. Care of Nickel Plating. — The bright nickel surface on the handle bars, cranks, hubs, etc., of your bicycle, is put on by an electric process, and being evenly "deposited," can only be smooth when the surface of the foundation metal has been made smooth to receive it. All polishing materials and processes involve the use of a very fine gritty or cutting sub- stance which, when rubbed in contact with a metal surface, brightens it by an infinite number of fine scratches, so fine indeed as to be invisible to the naked eye. Even the lustrous surface of the most beautiful watch case is polished in this way. Now the nickeled parts of a bicycle, when subjected to the pol- ishing process, are likely to be rubbed somewhat unevenly ; that is, the most accessible and most exposed parts oftentimes receive rather more than a due share of the polisher's attention, and if by the slightest mischance a minute scratch penetrates through the nickel so as to touch the steel beneath, rust is TAQ=A=MAC Do Your Tires Leak?

You may have noticed at times that when your handl bar has been rained on and not wiped, in a few hours smal spots of rust appear, although the surface of the nickel seems intact and the rust was easily wiped o&. The formation of this rust may be prevented by rubbing vaseline thoroughly over al? the plated work and immediately wiping off the surplus. Bj this process the vaseline is made to fill up all the little imper- ceptible scratches and prevent water and dampness from doing harm. If this precaution is attended to it will not be necessary to use scouring or brightening compounds, which are only required in cases where the nickel has been exposed to the air for a considerable time without the thin film of protecting vaseline. If you do notintend to use your wheel for some time, even in summer, puton "vaseline," "cosmic," "carboline" or " petroleum jelly" (the same thing under different names) and your machine will need only an occasional wiping with a cloth to keep it free from rust. — L. A. W. Bulletin. RIDING. Begin Slowly. — Any unaccustomed motion will soon tire the muscles. With care and patience you will be surprised to see how fast your power will grow. Hills which at first seem insurmountable will soon be climbed easily. In learning, select a stretch of level road, and confine your riding to it until you leel perfect confidence in your manage- ment of the machine. Get well used to the steering and brake before trying a hill. Hills. — Let your first hill be a gentle incline, and practice climbing and coasting it until you can do so with perfect ease. But do not coast in any case until you have acquired full con- trol of the bicycle. It is important that all riders who dispense with the brake should learn to use the sole of the shoe on front wheel tire in place of it, as that is one way to avoid a bad accident. It is perfectly easy and effective to brake in this way ; also learn to control the wheel by back-pedaling, both on hills and for quick stops. Pedaling. — A steady uniform pressure should be the rule. It is a great though common mistake, to strike the pedal a sudden blow as soon as it passes the top of the stroke. V should receive strong, steady pressure from top to bottom oi the stroke. Practice ankle motion. Do not work with the ankles stiff. The feet should follow the pedals throughout the stroke. This will add much to the power. The saddle should be adjusted so that you can comfortably touch the pedal at its farthest point with your heel. Always stop short of fatigue. There is no easier way for a new rider to get discouraged than by riding to excess. Keep within your strength. Remember it is as far back as it is out. Sit Up Straight. — It is easy to bend over when racing, with handles adjusted to allow an upright position. Remember the greatest enjoyment and benefit are had by moderate speed. You are not obliged to go fast simply because you can. — Overma7t Wheel Co. Handbook. OILINQ AND ADJUSTING. Oiling. — All bearings should be properly oiled, little and often IS the best rule.

Chain should be hot before it is put into the meltea lubricant. , , „ .^ , To clean pedal bearings, the pedal may be taken off its axle bodily, and the balls will not drop out.— /cf. Adjusting.— All nuts should be kept tight. When you hear a rattle you may be sure something is loose that should be tight Follow it up till you find it. Bicycles, if properly built, have means of adjustment at every joint, and there is no excuse for rattle. . If you are a novice, do not tinker your machine, lake it to some one who knows how to adjust it. Use wrench care- fully See that the jaws are closed to fit the bolt head or nut, and use the wrench so as to bring the strain upon it edgewise. Carry your Tool Bag with you.— Don't think you'll never need tools because you seldom need them. Bearings.— Let the wheel be ever so fine, if the bearings are imperfect no good results will follow. Again, wheel and bear-, ings may be perfect, but, if out of adjustment, -4heirperfectior is of no avail: A bearing, if properly adjusted will be botk-, tight and loose; tight enough to prevent any side play of tlf wheel, and loose enough to run with perfect freedom.— 7^. Remarks.— Wood rims are not meant to crush stones with nor to ride curbstones. Bicycles, like everything else, need ^°You''clniorexJecrgood service without proper attention. Do not lend your machine. A novice may mjure a machine more in an hour than an expert would in a month. BlaSe yourself part of the time. The machme usually means well if you will give it a chance.

In overtaking and passing them, keep to the left. 2. In turning corners to the left, always keep to the outside of the street. 3. In turning corners to the right, keep as far out as possible without trespassing on the left side of the road. 4. Never expect pedestrains to get out of your way; find a way around them. 5. Never ride rapidly by an electric car standing to unload passengers. 6. Never coast down a hill having cross streets along i.he way. 7. Never ring your bell . except to give notice of your approach. 8. In meeting other riders ascending a hill, where there is but one path, always yield the right of way to the up-riders. 9. Bear in mind that a rider meeting an electric car carrying a strong headlight is unable to see beyond the light ; keep out of his way. 10. When riding straight ahead, never vary your course suddenly to right or left, without first assuring yourself that no other rider is close m your rear on the side toward which you turn. 11. Always ring your bell in overtaking riders and pedes- trians to give warning of your approach. This does not mean that they are to get out of your way. 12. Do not fide too close to a novice, and in meeting a novice give plenty of room. 13. When riding after dark always carry a lantern. (C. IV. Co. Hand Book.) ODDS AND ENDS. Toe Clips. — Take a friend's advice and use them. .Thv., make pedaling easier, and the foot pressure more unifoi^'kLid more constant; they keep the foot in place, prevent the slip- ping of pedals at critical times and in difficult places, and sa^e the rider many bad falls and some serious accidents. Riding with toe clips is vastly easier than without, and no rider who ever used toe clips continuously for a week was afterwards satisfied to ride without them. Brakes. — A wheel and rider having a total weight of one hundred and twenty pounds or upwards, moving at the rate of twelve miles per hour, have acquired a momentum which "back pedaling" will not promptly overcome. Brakes are neither heavy, bulky nor inconvenient. Scorchers who stick to the racetracks may be excused for riding without brakes, but to other people they are likely to be mightily and suddenly ' convenient. Like the Texan's revolver the brake is apt to be wanted under conditions where a motion to adjourn would be out of order. L. A. W. Membership. — The league wants members in large numbers, but it does not want everybody. Help us to increase our membership from good people ; people of character who would feel a pride in the good work of the organization and who are willing to aid this work by their voices and influ- ence. One good citizen who respects himself and obeys the law is a better league member than forty hoodlums who are forever shouting ""What do I get for my dollar?" I PflPEB WHICH lEIfEB HISLEPS In American Journalism, THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE ranks among its contemporaries with The London Times in England. It is a great, dignified, decent and thoroughly patriotic newspaper, loyal to its country, honest, never stooping to fakes, and admired even by rivals for the variety, ac= curacy and excellence of its news. The man who grows up reading THE TRIBUNE will never have anything to unlearn and will be .viund, progressive and respected Irj friends. There are newspapers so absolutely wrong and even ma= licious in their news, that if a man should read them for a month, he will never get some things straight in his mind if he lives to be a hun= dred years old, and the longer he reads them the worse off he is. THE TRIBUNE is, before all OTHERS, THE TRUE NEWSPAPER FOR A DE- CENT riAN AND A DECENT FAMILY. AMPLE REPORTS ARE PRINTED OF ALL NEWS OF INTEREST TO LOVERS OF THE WHEEL. FOR SALE BY ALL DEALERS. LAWS OF NEW YORK. 1. For the Protection of Cycle Paths. Section 652 of the Penal Code (as Amended by Chapter 267, Laws of 1897), pro- vides as follows: '' Subdivision J. — A person who willfully and without authority or necessity drives any team or vehi- ■cle, except a bicycle upon a side path, or wheelway, con- structed by or exclusively for the use of bicyclists, and not constructed in a street of a city, is punishable by a fine of not more than fifty dollars, or imprisonment not exceeding thirty days or both." 2. For the Punishment of Tack and Glass Throwers. Section 661 of the Penal Code provides as follows : ''Section 66i.' A person who willfully throws, drops or places, or causes to be thrown, dropped or placed upon any road, high- way, street or public place, any glass, nails, pieces of metal, or other substance which might wound, disable or injure any animal, is guilty of a misdemeanor." Note. — The penalty for an infraction of this law is a fine of Five Hundred Dollars, or one year's imprisonment in the Penitentiary, or both fine and imprisonment; and there is a special reason why every wheelmen in the State should co-operate in its enforcement. The orig- inal purpose of the law was to protect animals from wanton or needless injury, and more particularly horses which traverse the public roads and streets by the hundreds of thousands, and are exposed not only to needless suffering but also to a frightful death from lockjaw by the practices which this law is intended to suppress. It is evident that the throwing upon public places of any substances which might wound or disable an animal, may result in injury to the pneumatic tires now in universal use as a necessary part of the bicycle. Under the^^w^^-a/ law, there is no adequate or certain remedy for injury to the owner of a wheel which maybe injured in that way, since it is always necessary, for the injured party to prove that the injurious article or substance was placed upon the road or streets with vialicious intent \.o injure property, while the court may go so far as to require proof of an intent to injure the particular wheel which has been damaged. The result of this diffi- culty is that many wheelmen submit in silence to a malicious wrong which interferes with thoir pleasure and injures their property, rather than undertake the trouble and expense of a doubtful prosecution. If, however, all wheelmen in the State of New York, would simply assist in carrying out the original intention of section bbi of the Penal Code, they would not only serve the cause of hiimanity but secure pro- tection for themselves against a needless and irritating annoyance. In prosecuting offenders against this section, it is not necessary to prove a malicious intent, but simply the /ac?" that a person has, knowingly, and therefore, "willfully, thrown, dropped or placed, or caused to be thrown dropped or placed upon any road, highway, street, or public place, any glass, nails, pieces of metal, or other substance which might wound, disable or injure any animal." pOTTLING Co. 280To28i^ BERGEN ST. m^PHONE Brooklyn.

The Union offers facilities for savings and for a reserve which especially interest members of the Royal Arcanum and other Fraternal Orders. It secures best results from investments in Building and Loan Associations in the State of New York, where values are most reliable, and the laws governing building associations most rigid. The interest, instead of accumulating, is employed in the payment ^ of contractholders' dues and assessments in the Fraternal Order, t sparing him annoyance and promoting his individual convenience and profit. . It pays your dues and assessments in advance ot their call. It places ' Tractholder in a few years where his Savings 5 n will earr^. lUgh to thereafter take care of Fraternal Benefit Society ^ ' oc the remainder of his life. It is a mistaRe to suppose that real estate investments are not profitable as well as safe. Small sums grow to large if they are placed right. The ait of saving consists in committing one's self to a start that forces one to go on in spite of feasts or fire-works. Add to this a method of saving that relieves the saver from any care or anxiety as to the investment of his savings and the art of saving is nearly perfect ; but it reaches the fine art of perfection when the saver gets a chance to get back a great deal more than he puts in, even with compound interest added at ten per cent. We'll tell you in a practical way how this saving small sums and investing in right ways applies to you ; or, in other words, what small and right mean, if you will mail a postal giving name of your Council and rate of your assessment. Punishment of Tack Throwers. ' That any person who shall throw, drop or place or who shall cause or procure to be thrown, dropped or placed in or upon any road, highway, street, avenue or public place within the City of Brooklyn, any glass, tacks, nails, pieces of metal or other substance which is likely to injure or damage a bicycle, tricycle, or any other vehicle commonly called a 'cycle or wheel, shall forfeit and pay a penalty of not more than $25 and not less than $5. (Adopted Oct. 21, 1895).' Saddles. — Everybody is trying to make a saddle to fit every- body else. Give your saddle a chance. Did you ever note the fact that most old saddles are comfortable and most new saddles are not ? A new saddle is like a new boot or shoe and sometimes like a new hat. It fits better and seats its rider more comfortably after a few weeks of use. If you have a new saddle that seems to be wrong try to improve it by adjusting it until it " rides" more easily. The best saddle in the world can be made into a clumsy, hateful seat by giving it the =1' ^ tilt on the saddle post, and a very poor saddle can be made fairly comfortable by giving it the right adjustment. Don't throw away your saddle or exchange it for another until you are very sure it is the fault of the saddle. m\Um HBNDLE-BBB GtlPS.
