ON BICYCLES TO SEATTLE.
Pennsylvania Boys Expect to Reach
the Coast September 1.
C. E. Clark and S. R. Beckley rode through Kansas City, Kas., on bicycles yesterday afternoon on their way to Seattle. The young men have ridden the entire distance from Altoona, Pa., their home, to Kansas City. they left home June 15 and expect to reach Seattle September 1. The young men worked two weeks in the harvest fields near Odessa, Mo.
"The out-of-doors life makes a fellow feel fine." Beckley said. "We've peddled 1,172.4 miles, and I feel much better than I did when I left home, even if we do have to sleep in hay stacks much of the time."
The travelers carried their extra clothing strapped to the seats of their bicycles. They said they were making the trip merely for the novelty of it.
