The Latest Wheel Reaches This City Today. Washington wheelmen will be greatly in- terested in the improved chainless bicycle manufactured by the Pope Manufacturing Company, which was introduced in Wash- ington today. The machine arrived here this morning and is of 1898 model. The operation of the machine is with beveled gears on « cog system, which, it 1s claimed, will outlast the chain. One of the objects cf the invention is to provide in connection with the pedal shaft and driy- ing wheel of the bicycle a driving mechan- ism, in which each set of gears revolubly connecting the pedal shaft and the driving wheel with the side shaft will have fixed bearings entirely independent of the side shaft. ‘This will maintain a fixed operative relution irrespective of any tisalignment of the side shaft. The difficulties experi- enced in the former geared bicycle, it is claimed, wiil be entirely obviated with this arrangement. The difference between: the 1897 model and present is confined entirely to the driv- ing mechanism, to three sides of a paral- lelogram having thé rear axle and the crank axe as its eads, and the shaft as one side. The invention, it issaid, provides in connection with the gears adjacent to the pedal shaft a flexible or:non-rigid driving connection capable @f rotuting one set of | Men’s $4 & $5 | Box Calf Shoes. soles. season.
