happy and proud. Those who had to

Mr. Davles got on the cage with the
rest nnd the signal was given to hoist.

giddiness and swaying, he fell against
a companion, David H, Lewis. Lewis

Strieker, man and supported him. After
stepping Into the open air, Mr. Davles
felt better.

From tho Chlcnso Record.
Ever since the llrst safety bicycle was
built manufacturers and Inventors havo
been trying to do nway with the link
bolt, commonly called the "chain," used
to transmit motion to tho driving wheel.
It seemed to be tnken for granted from
the very first that the chain wns a mere
makeshift, to be used only until some
thing better was Invented to take Its
place. Whllo bicycle makers were ex
perimenting with other driving devices,
hundreds of thousands of bicycles with
chains were made, sold and used. Occa
sionally some make of wheel with a
substitute for the chain was brought
out, but the "makeshift" held Its own.
Tho chain was a nuisance. In that It
collected dust nnd gravel, required con
stant attention nnd frequently broke.
Nevertheless, it was tho best method of
transmitting motion or power, and
wheel people accepted It as the only
practical device.
o
Now tho chalnless bicycle has ap
peared ns n competitor of tho common
wheel. Recently two bicycles, with bevel
gears, were brought to Chicago, and In a
few hours the bicyclers of the city were
divided Into two factions; one standing
for tho chain, and the other for tho
"coffce-mlU" gear. Tho advocates of tho
bevel gear, accepting tho claims of the
manufacturer as authoritative, hailed It
ns the long-looked-for Improvement
which is to do away with chains alto
gether. The friends of the old fnvorlto
regarded tho bevel gear with suspicion
called It a. fad, and refused to concedo
that tho "coffee mill" was an Improve
ment. It will be welt for both factions
to withhold Judgment until tho new gear
has been fairly tested.

Tho bevel gear uses beveled cog-wheels,
with a shaft, to transmit motion fro"
tho crank to tho driving wheel of tho
bicycle. The gearing must be placed In
tho machine with perfect exactness. Tho
front and rear nxles with their gear at
tachments should lie precisely In the
same plane nnd exactly parallel with
each other. Any failure to do this will
result In strain and unsatisfactory work.
Tho frame construction must be so rigid
that there will be no spring or yield un
der tho strain. These are tho conditions,
ndmltted to be such by tho makers of
the chalnless wheel, which must bo se
cured nnd maintained In order that tho
bevel gear will be a success. Tho makers
say that all these conditions and re
quiilemaiits huve been mot, although
the weight of tho wheel hud to bo In
creased. o
Tho claim Is made that with the bevel
gear there Is no "back-lash." no dirt, no
fear of broken driving mechanism, per
fect lubrication and positive and Instan
taneous action at all times. Rut It Is still
a question whether tho rough-and-ready
riding of the ordinary bicycler will not
so strain tho frame ns to disturb the ex
actness of position which seems to be
essential to tho easy operation of tho
bevel gear. However, tho bevel gear at
last Is here, and the verdict of approval
or disapproval will show whether the
sanguine manufacturers made a puylng
Investment when they put JIM.OOO Into
experiments and machinery. Tho bevel
gear wheel will cost $123; nccordlng to
wheelmakers twenty-four out of twenty
llvo chain wheels next year will sell for
$30 or less. This difference will havo the
effect of giving tho intangible attribute'
familiarly known as 'Wellness to tho
chalnless wheel nt any rate.
