The latter place was reached five minutes before dinner time, and It was 2 o'clock when they left there to return. No more stops were asde natil the wheelmen reached a house about three miles from Laytonsville. where they enjoyed a lunch. At Mechanis.ville three minutes wer spent get ting esofe refreshing sang water, and no more atops were made until t century poet, near Silver Spring. was reached at 6:27. The run was made on a schedule of thirteen hours and thir+y minutes, and the hundred qile post was reached just live minutes ahead of that time. Wednesday evening the club had an enjoy able time on a run to Tekoa Park, and tomor row Capt. Cook will lead his club member on a eroes the country ride to Rockville. The club members are making preparations for a big smoker. to be given some time thin month. Great preparations are being made for the event, which promiees to be one of the beet afairs of the kind ever given in wheeling circlee. TRW ZL3cT cLcr. One of the prettiest and meet enjoyable ridee ever taken by Washington wheelmen was taken by two members of the Select Club last Sunday. The route selected was along the tracks of the Alexandria and Fredericksburg railroad as far as Woodbridge, and then across the country to Occoquan, a typical Virginia village. From here the wheelmen went on the 7:45 train as far as Bush Hill. which is just four miles below Alexandria. and from there to Woodbridge there in the finest track for cycling that there is in this section of the country. Had the rail road company had the wheelmen's interests at stake the v could not have mande a much better track. Then there are no steep bills to climb and no muddy places where it is necessary to turn the tables and carry the wheeL. Here and there the railroad pauses through thick woods. where the foliage at this time of the veer presents so many beautiful colors. and then there is an occasional bunch of pines emitting it. sweet and healthful odor. When Lorton station wae reached the wheelmen. in stead of going to Woodbridge. branched off and passed over Telegraph road. The distance from this station to Occoquan is four miles and the condition of most of the road is indescribable. except that part of it resembles a hog sty. and the stench is equally as bad. From the top of a high hill to the Occ uan bridge there is a long coast, and withth exception of the natural scenery from the village to the falls. which is beautiful, there was nothing that looked specinllv inviting to the wheelmen. The wheelmen strolled of up toward the falls. where they found Mr. Jesse Middleton and Mr. Thomas Taylor of Four-mile Run and Mr. Hart of this city angling for bass. Upon returning to the hotel Mrs. Hammill did all she could to make them feel at home. Tho wheelmen were ushered into a large dining room. where a log fire in an open fire place gave the room that comfortable look that nothing clse can give a country home, while on the table was a reminder of Christmas times in the !orm of a large roast turkey. Be-id -. the fowl there was plenty of meat, vegelables and other edibles such as wheelmen r.arely run aero; y thir country runs. When the wheelmen left the table the turkey went with them. On the return trip the wheelmen went over the road to Woodbridge, and it is far bet ter than the average Virginia road. From the station the path beside the railroad was fol lowed as far a. Alexandria, where the wheelmen put their silent sneeds on the train and came home. CRENtsCT CENTtUT wIREELUEN. Last Sunda% the members of the Crescent Century Wheelmen made up several small par ties and covered roads in numerous directions. Clarence Palmer and E. F. Roberts were the only members who made a century. with the exception of George Hunt. who is also a mem ber of the Georgetown Cycle Club. He rode with the latter organization. Messrs. Palmer and Roberta made their century by riding to Ellicott City and return and then making the round trip between here and Great Falls. To morrow there is to be no regular run of the club, but seveval members will make the am tury run witti the Arlington Wheelmen. Clarence Palmer hat earned his eighth cen tury lar. and at the eloe of the season he hopes to have the largest number of them at tached to his Century Road Club badge. Ed. Terry has eight bara, but he probably will not ride many more centuries. as he wants to get in good condition for the track next year. ARLINoTON wnZZL==N. Last Sunday the Arlington Wheelisen went to Marlboro' over the old pike, which was re cently purchased by the county from the turn pike company. The strong northwest wind in the morning ade the ride an easy one for the wheelmen. who asade a good record over the course. In the afternoon there was not enough wind to make the run unpleasant. Dinner was had at the Farmers' HoteL Tuesday evening the regular monthly asset ing of the club was held at Losekam',. when those who occupied Geats at the table discussed the wheeling seeson about ended and the pros perons condition of the club. Tomorrow a century run has been called fbr Baltimore, the start to be made at 6 o'clock in the morning from the corner of 14th street and Florida avenue. Wednesday Capt. Robertson and Clarence Palmer. the latter of the Crescent Century Wheelmen. made a century on the road between this city and Frederick. CAPITAL 3ICYCLE ClB. The members of the Capital Bicycle Club have done more tourinr this season than most of the other clba. While the members do not pride themselves on century record, their trips are long onee and are generally made throqgh pretty stretches (f country that are not often visited by many' other local wheelmen. Capt. Mac daniel has given his membeen lot. of touring this season and h.e was the only e'lub captain to arrange a long tour through the Shenandoah salley' over the smouoth li:uetoue road. During the past few weeks there have not been many club runs. but last Sunday there was an enjoy able one. The party left here on Sat urdawy evening and rode to Gnaithersburg~where theyv .penit the night, and Sundny morning they rode over the billy country to Mt. Airy, in IFrederick county, where they' visited friends. The day was speut there and the return trip, a dl.istnce of nearly forty miles, was made in the The Nomad Cycle Club is aotteol cycle club here that does not have a regular club run on Sundays. Most of the members ride on Sunday,. and often small parties are made up for country trips, but there is up regular club run for that day. Monday lst the clubi haol an All Ralloween party at the veai dlence' o. Mtr. and Mrse. Robertson. on M street. M r,. ILobertson always proves herself an ezcel lent hostess, and she provided many unique ways for the young couples to determine their fate. I he entertainment proved an enjoyable affair and was the first indoor entertainmenat of the club this season Wednesday evening the regular club run, which was largely attended, was mae over the Conduit road to Glen Echo. rantar wanu'a srecrae. W. Iharry Ward, the fancy and trick rider, gave an exhibition in Norfolk last week. Fri day night he appeared before a large audience at the Academy of Music and Saturday after noon. in the pre'sence of 3,0100 person. he de ,,c',ndedt the cnstom house steps. The steps are I much more difficult to ride than the stepe ef the Capitol. Both exhibitions were iven for the benetit of the Y. 3M. U.

"I Teams throughout the as country have emerged from the embryo state K in which they begin of each season and after to trials and changes. giv ing each candidate a E fair chance. After a t sifting and a thorough AI everhauling of all the P available material order has taken the place of chaos and the makeup of each eleven being ]h practialiy decided upon the teams an a whole are diligently at work perfecting each man in t his position and attempting to got the eleven in individuals to work together as a unit. 0 From now until Thanksgiving day every after noon is precious. Faults must be discovered and eradicated, weak points must be strength ened, physical training must be strictly adhered to and practice faithfully carried out. This is the time of the year when the smallest accident may change the whole prospects of a team's success. It is for this reason that unusual care should be taken not to overtrain or become "stale" and to avoid all danper of injuries. Should a first-class man become slightly injured during practice, his individual desire to continue playing which his grit and enthusiasm will aurely make him desirous of doing, his feelings must be curbed for the final success of the team and another substituted until the player is sound and well again. No chances can be taken when the telling games are about to be played. Snap. vim and enthusiasm are the characteristics most de sired now. The fundamental principles have been taught by the primary games. Now the scientific points and the final polishing must come. LOCAL CAsPossUi. Among the local elevens the series of games for the District championship are approaching, and will be over before many fully appreciate it. On next Saturday, the 12th, the Y. 31. C. A. open with the Kendalla, the 16th finds them op posed to Georgetown and on the following Sat urday, the 19th, thev elo-e the local season with the Columbia Athletic Club. In the mean while the Kenaalls will play their game with Georgetown, and this will leave only the great Thanksgiving day match between Georgetown and the Colunmbias to be decided in order that the championship may be deter mined. All the teams aro at work every afternoon, and this season finds all of them improved in their play, so that the class of foot ball given is a much higher one. The rivalry whieb exists makes each anxious to win and the various contests should be closely played. The next game scheduled for this city is on Monday afternoon at 4:15, when the Columbia Athletics will meet the strong eleven of tutgers College. This team is credited with having the best foot ball eleven for the pre-ent amson that the New Jersey col lege has ever put in the field, and this is saying a great deal. They hare played many matches thus far and have acquitted themselves nost creditably. Last fall they defeated the C. A. C. by the close score of 4 to 0. and with the improvement since then of each eleven the game at the National Base Ball Park on Monday should not only be an excellent exhibition of scientific foot ball as played by the northern college, but a close and well-contested match. UUALL ATTENDANCL The managers of the local foot ball elevens and the players as well are considerably dis heartened by the poor support given them by the public. The attendance at each game, ex cept that between Princeton and the C. A. C.. has been miserable. and on, each occasion the management have lost money. Sam King, who manages the Columbian, is very much worried. To Tan &ran he said: "I am in an embnrraas ing position. It has been my desire and effort to give the Washington public the best class of foot bail that in being played. In order to do this I have secured Bergen to coach the C.A.C., so that their end of the bargain shall be fulfilled and play an excellent game, and in this I think you will agree with me I have succeeded. I have ob tained as their opponents some of the best teams of the north, but still but few come to the games. What am I to do? Either the games must be supported or they will have to be stopped, as we cannot afford to give matches as a present and lose money at each exhibition. I am anxious that our schedule should be carried out, but at the present rate the games will have to be canceled. I an willing to try every method and on this account I wish you would say through the columns of Twa STaR that it has been decided to try 25-cent foot ball. This course has been urged upon me and I am willing to give it a trial. It is said that there are a great many persons in the city who, though unacquainted with the details of the game, would be willing to pay 25 cents to wit ness any athletic contest and also that there are greet numbers of school children who would attend at that price. In the game with Rtutgers College on 3Monday the price of admission to all parts of the field will be 2.3 cents. If the public demands It and will support the game I will be more than satisfied." While discussing the admission as to "all parts of the field'' a word as to the management of the crowd might be apropos. It is abeolutely aecessary that no one be admitted inside the ropes on one side or the grand stand ad. bleachers on the other but actual players, actual substitutes, manager. and maem ber. of the press. No discrimination should be made in favor of a friend of the manager, an offcer of the club, or, in fact, any one. Until this thing is done the public cannot be expected to he generous. To ask the majority to stand back of the ropes or sit in the bleachers while a chosen few are allowed to line the side of the field and obstruct the view of those behind is most unjust. It was noticed on Thursday most of those of the "chosen few" were those who went between the gates on passes, while thos who paid admis sion were relegated to the rear. In the A. C. 8. N. game the crowd became so much vexed that all left their seats and crowded upon the Asid. This should not be allowed. It hinders the work of the local eleven and is not fair play for their opponents. TEE C. A. c. ThAW. The Columbia Athletics have shown a most extraordinary imsprovement during the pest ten days. Previous to that tim, their play was listless, unskillful and most faulty. On 'I hure day most of the defecta had bee. eradicated. They had no mean antagonist to evoeomse, but they were successfuL Their work showed a very fair amount of team work and interfer ence, while every man played with all the "'glager" that could be displayed. This was epecially true of the latter half et the game. The most apparent dileulty is to find some one who can catch a kihebs lt Fumbling is a fault which will cns, the best teamn to loee, ad unless this matter is attended to defeat may be expected. The team has beensteg eued by the appearance of Bob Church, ic inson and Johnsou. The formner is an old vet eran, and as soon as he get in form will be one of the shining lights of the eleven. He is a good ground gaiaer from the line, and should be given a chanee to advance the balL. .It woald net be a had idea, either, for he or some one to pate goal hieking froms a place kick.
