Cantor changed h esidence a few ys ago from West 129th street, in the N’ teenth, to East 1!6th, in the Twentieth Senate district. This is taken as evi- dence of the fact that the Senator has abandoned his idea of running on the Tammany Hall county ticket for Judce of the Court of General Sessions, and is content to be sent back to Albany. The Republican nomination in the Sixteenth district is said to lie between ex-Police Justice Clarence W. Meade and Assemblyman William Halpin. Frank O'Donnel is not having ab- solutely clear sailing in his effort to se- cure a renomination by Tammany Hall in the Fourteenth. Ex-Police Justice Thomas F. Grady is a candidate. So is ex-Senator John J. Allen, wno declar that he will run as an independent c; didate if he is not nominated by Tam- many. The only Republican cand 'daie seems to be Thomas F. Eagan, of the Twenty-second Assembly district. Otte Kempner was nominated for ti Senate last night by the Liberal S ay League in the Eleventh district.

Pittsburg, Oct. 2—Senator Quay was in the city last evening on his way to attend the Republican State Commiti meeting at Philadelphia to-day. Whi here he was in conference with the com- mittee having in charge the effort to come that horses ‘have there, as here, lost much of their value. The wheel suc- ceeds, it is thought, because, in the opin- ion of the French, “it summarizes in some measure most of the physical exer- | cises and adds to this a pleasure in move- ment carried ‘to its maximum.” This is substantially the verdict of our own Mrs. Mary Lease, the Kansas politiclan, who has taken recently to the wheel and says of it: “It is the next thing to having wings. As respects the effeot of cycling on the health, French medical opinion is decid- edly favorable. The bicycle does not, it is held, produce any of the various dis- eases'that have been credited to it, but, on the contrary, when used with due caution, has a beneficial effect. Persons suffering from various diseases in an ad- vanced stage will, of course, ask medical advice before undertaking any kind of active exercise, but, within limits, cyc- fing is a mild, pleasurable stimulant which may improve one’s physical con- dition. It is denied, for example, that it produces heart disease if used in moder- ation. ‘There is no exercise,” it is stated, “more gentle and more easy to regulate than that taken on the wheel. It is less fatiguing than walking and puts in play the whole of the muscles, even those most deeply situated. It accomplished a veritable stirring up of the internal or- gans, and, facilitating the passage of the blood in the vessels, lessens the work of the heart at the same time that it is ton- ing it up.” It is denied also that wheel- ing in strict moderation favors conges- tion of the liver or other internal organs. Excessive or prolonged riding does un- doubtedly greatly increase albuminuria, and it is urged that “subjects whose liver and kidneys are not sound ought carefully to avoid excess on the wheel, as well as all other kinds of excess.” If the saddle is properly constructed, the injuries it is credited with are not pro- duced. Children, it is argued, should not use the bicycle till they are 13 or 14 years old, owing to their disposition to go to excess and neglect to keep a good position. If allowed to ride they should be accom- panied by older persons capable of con- trolling them. They should be required to sit upright and to avoid undue effort | to climb hills or make speed or goagainst a strong wind. No rider, should risk in- |jury to the spinal column and chest by | habitually bénding forward and grasp- | Ing the handle-bar near the middle. Ac- cidents are due chiefly to excess of speed in rapid descents, the rider thus losing control of his wheel. The discreet bicy- clist, it is suggested, will have a solid, well-kept wheel; will avoid fatigue; will not ride soon after a full meal, and will secure for Pittsburg the next mecting | 28¢end steep hills afoot. Excess is be- of the Republican Convention. Senator Quay said that, besides Pitts- burg, San Francisco was the only city that he had heard of as making a seri- ous bid for the convention. He did not trayed by loss of appetite and inability to sleep from fatigue. For dyspepsia cycling is esteemed ben- | eficial or even curative.

He declared that as soon as he feached New York he would lay the matter before his friends in that State and urge them to support Pittsburg. He said he would also at once begin correspondence and endeavor to reach all the organic functions. Rheumatism, gout, diabetes, passive congestions of the internal organs and all infirmities affect- {ing people of sedentary habits are like- w:se best opposed by this form of exer- cise.

Senator Clarence Lexow was renomi- sated without opposition. © new York Burglar Killed by a Fall. * - dations much mere nonsense has been written recently; and all the while death is allowed to be continually active in the roofs. Houses are mostly built with some part of the~outer walls but one brick, of nine inches, thick; and work- men's he’ »°s, “self-contained,” are whol- ly buikt\ -h merely nine-inch work. Yet bricks are seldom made so dense that moisture cannot penetrate a nine-inch wall; and 14 inches is the least that should be used for the main walls of dwelling houses. This slight extra thick- ness, and the joint of mortar, at a corre- | sponding little extra cost, tend to ob- struct both heat and cold, both damp and sound. The heat in summer time and cold in winter never are efficiently excluded by a nine-inch, one brick, wall; and in the winter, freezing outer walls condense the moisture in the rooms, whi-h thus be- come unwholesome. Roo.s are con- structed with extremne tenuity; an inch of slate and plaster is the wholly insuffi- cient covering and protect:on of an aver- age London house. The attics, low pitch- ed, and extremely hot or cold, are quite unfit for servants’ sleeping rooms; no wonder that so many of these girls are stunted, narrow-chestcd, and anaemic, and that ‘consumption has become a na- tional disease. The servants sit, or work, in basement rooms, in 70 degrees of heat, for several hours; then going up to these cold attics they experience an immediate fall of 35 degrees or even 45 degrees. And in that frost and chill they Iie ‘:rough- out the winter's night; while in the sum- mer the excessive heat is painfully ex- hausting. .

During the dull weather of early win- ter, window plants will require very lit- tle water, and care in this regard should | be exercised. Even the geranium will at | times succumb to ‘too much moisture. A very desirable window plant is found in the “Bermuda Buttercup” oxalis, a single plant of which will yield an im- mense number of blossoms. The bulbs can be procured in a-dry state in the early autumn. Tender roses, if it is found {mpossible to carry them over the winter, should be protected by bending them to the earth and covering them.with sods, soil or lit-~ ter. With protection, a large percentage can be safely brought through. Do not forget to add to your stock of spring flowers by planting a few ‘bulbs during October. Tulips, crocus and sev- eral other kinds of bulbs cost but very | liftlé in view of the returns they give. Narcissus, joriquils and hyacinths can | also be used effectively. The go-called “Chinese lily” is a mem- | ber of the narcissus family, and blooms | only a few weeks after being placed in | water. The varieties of the polyanthus | narcissus known as “Double Roman” and “Paper White” do quite as well when | grown in water as the “Chinese lily,” | and are as much esteemed by the major- ity of flower lovers. | | Chrysanthemums at this season should be strongly staked in ‘the pots, and a moderate use of liquid manure indulged in, to be discontinued as soon as the buds show color. If only large flowers are desired, allow only one bud to de- velop to a stem, removing the others when about the size of peas. Plants which are in the open ground should be carefully lifted and placed in large pots, rocks. shading a few days before bringing to the sunlight, while indoors chrysanthe- mums should have an abundance of air. After the outdoor plants are killed by frost, clear up all ‘the borders and beds, if for no other reason to give them an air of neatness. Saveall stakes.

A list of the most desirable house plants for the winter would include geraniums, zouale, ivy-leaved and scented; flowering and foliage begonias in variety; callas, colens, Chinese primroses, cyclamen, linum trigynum, abutilon, alyssium, fuchsias, heliotrope, lIaxtana, palms, ferns and bouvardias. These, with an/ assortment of bulbous plants—hyacinths, tulips, lilies, narcissus, ete.—will answer every requirement for decorative and cut flower purposes. Of course, there are many other varieties of plants that can be grown, especially where proper facili- ties can be afforded. As soon as frost has touched the gladi- olus tops lift ‘the plants with a fork and shake the earth from the bulbs. Spread out in a dry, cool place, under cover, where’frost cannot reach them. After a few days cut off the tops close to the bulbs, break off and throw away the old bulbs over which the new ones have formed, and place the latter in paper bags. If desired, the little bulblets, or spawn, which will be found numeréusly about some roots, can be carefully gath- ered up and saved with the old ones. These, if divested of their tough coating, can be planted in the spring like peas in drills, and will make blooming size bulbs for the second summer. A good place to} keep gladiolus ‘bulbs-over winter is to) hang the bags containing them to the overhead beams in a dry, frost-proof cel-| lar.
