The century run over the Northfield
Century course iast Monday was par
ticipated in by a largo number of Twin
City wheelmen. Notwithstanding the
Wretched condition of tlie reads ca.usvd
by the iecent heavy rains, over sev
er.ty-tfiw succeeded in reaching North
fteld in :imo for dinner. Several nov
ii. s in century riding found out before
n aching Rosemount, seventeen milss
r. ..in St. Paul, that they had under
t&ken a great task, and very sensibly
gave up at that point and took the
train h< me. When Farmington was
reached another party of six became
disgusted with country roads.
The main party, however, pushed
U liuarh to Xorthlield behind the pace
maker. Archie Matheis, of this city,
and arrived promptly on rchedule time.
Ample anang.ments had been made at
this pi.hu for the accommodation of the
Cyclists, and when the Urn*- arrived for
them to begin their long homeward
ride the • party, rested and refreshed,
were found anxious for the start.
The return trip was accomplished
without incident of note. All the old
century riders finished the trip well in
eidc the time limit.
All who finished are requested to
communicate with Dr. C. H. Hunter, of
Minneapolis, state centurion, in order
that official record may be made.
The fact that the roads were in such
poor condition deterred a large number
Of the fair sex from making the trip.

"Jimmy" Michael, the popular little
Welshman, has offered his services to
President McKinley in organizing a
corps of bicycle war carriers. Michael
is another bright star in the bicycle
firmament who has offered his services
to the country. If the bicycle can be
well utilized in modern warfare, Jimmy
will certainly demonstrate it, as he will
put the wheel to a most crucial test.
Michael's feats on the circuits, both
at home and abroad, have attracted
widespread attention, and should he be
detailed to active service his progress
would be watched by the wheelmen of
two continents.
The world's record for one mile is
said to have been broken at the Crystal
Palace track in London May 9. Platt-
Bftts, the sturdy little English flyer, is
the man who clipped two-fifths of a
■eoond off of J. W. Stocks' standing
— record of 1.35 2-5, making the world's
record for one mile on a bicycle 1.35
flat, and also transferring the record
across the pond. However, now that
the greatest record on the list is held
by an Englishman, American riders will
endeavor harder than ever to lower the
existing time, and with the perfecting
of pacing machinery, and of pacing
crews, it is within possibility that an
American rider will regain the lost
mark, even this season.
The annual meeting of the executive
committee of the Century Road club
occurred last Monday at the Great
Northern hotel, Chicago. President W.
I* Kri- terstein, of Terre Haute, T nd.,
j and Second Vice President A. L. Mace,
of St. Paul, were present, the only
absentee being First Vice President C.
W. Fourdrinier, of Boston. During the
session the following ciub officials call
ed and took part in the proceedings:
National Pe-rrtt'ary C. W. Mears, Cleve
land; Chairman Road Rf.-cord Commit
tee Walter Faraday, Wilmette, 111.;
Illinois State Centurion R. E. O'Con
ner. Chicago, and Wisconsin State C-:n
--turion K. L. Marshall, Milwaukee. One
of the most important decisions made
va.= the abolishment of the old cen.ury
rule cf allowing not more than 20 psr
•cent of a century over boulevards, pav
ed streets, park roadways or cycle
paths. Hereafter a member may go
over the best road he can find on his
century run, and the cen'ury thus made
■will go on record, providing tt was rid
den over a recognized century course,
approved by the state centurion of the
state in which the ride was made.
The national organization is heartily
in favor of the good roads movement
throughout the country, and "will use
Its influence and strength in securing
favorable legislation, looking toward
the betterment of our country road
ways. A committee was appointed to
confer wi:h the committee from the L.
>A. W.. wfco were delegated by that or
-•'foariization last February, to consider
the advisability of transfering the con
trol of racing from that body to some
other rat'or.al association. The Cen
■ tury Road club will scon be in a posi
tion to handle this branch of the sport
in a thorough manner, having well or
ganized divisions in every state and in
a majority of the territories, besides
being well -represented in Canada and
Mexico.
The next meeting of the national
board will occur ait Indianapolis next
August, when several questions of im
portance to cyclists will be decided.
During the last ten days Treasurer
Anderson, of the" Cycle Path associa
tion, has received over $300 in contri
butions, in most eases not exceeding $1
each.
Clifford R. Graham, of the Northern
Pacific general offices, turned in a list
(yesterday which enriched the associa
tion to the extent of $192, which is the
j* largest amount turned over by one man
to the association since it was organ
ized.
At a recent meeting of the Commer
cial Cyclers' club Rev. Samuel G.
Smith was unanimously elected chap
lain of the club. Just before Dr. Smith
left for his trip abroad he made a very
novel and unique offer to the club. In
viting them to attend services at the
People's church in full club uniform,
he promised to deliver a special ser
mon on "The Compatibility of God
With Healthy Recreation." Dr. Smith
has promised to deliver this sermon
-immediately upon his return from his
vacation. The club has accepted the
invitation.
The club house of the Commercial
Cyclers at Lake Como has become a
most popular resort. During the af
ternoon and evening club members
take a spin out to the rendezvous with
their wives and sweethearts for a
pleasant evening's recreation. The club
is planning some interesting entertain
' ments and informals to be given in the
near future.
Mayor Doran has appointed three
members of the Commercial Cyclers'
club as special policemen. They are
T. F. Smith, Capt. C. B. Gedney and
*F. M. Wheeler. They were sworn in
"yesterday and coached a bit upon thc
diities of their new office. They will
see that the bicycle ordinances are en
forced, so far as they are able.
Another committee has been appoint
ed by the Commercial Cyclers' club to
co-operate with the League of Amer
ican Wheelmen in any projects which
the league may have in hand for the
summer. The members of the commit
tee are Capt. C. B. Gedney. Victor Gil
man and H. E. Huntington. There are
several schemes which the L. A. W.
are planning in which the assistance
of the Commercial Cyclers would aid
materially. The most Important of
these is the preparation of a state map
and laying out of a system of summer
tcurs through the country.
V. C. Gilman, of the Commercial Cy
clers, has presented that organization
with an insurance policy covering the
flub house.
Last week was an important one to
the cycling world. All over the coun
try road races were held on Decoration
day, and the circuit "chasers" had a
lively time of it filling their contracts.
The Chicago road race and the circuit
I meets in the Southwest, participated in
| by the fastest men in the country were
I productive of much interest through
! out the country. Ringl, the Chicago
I man, is just now the idol of Windy-
City wheelmen, while Bald. Michael et
I al. continue to stand first among the
professionals.
The greatest race at the year will be I
i the great American handicap, which
will be pulled off at Indianapolis Aug.
10. One thousand dollars goes to the
winner of the two-mile chase, and $200
will be distributed in the trials and
semi-finals. Tin? fastest men in the
country will enter.
Eddie Bald is said to be in poor con
dition for racing. From latest reports
it will take him two weeks before he
can reduce his weight to a point where
he was last year. Considerable interest
was manifesed last week in the meet
ing between Bald and Cooper on the
track for the first time this season, but
both were failures. In the champion
ship race Bald quit on the last lap.
having tired himself out jockeying for
a position and riding a wheel which
was not fitted to him. Cooper came
in third, having been defeated by
Tommy Butler and the dusky spader
Major Taylor. Should Butler stick to
the track he will come very n»ar giv
ing Messrs. Bald and Cooper a hot race
for their money.
After a survey of the route from St.
Paul to Lake Johanna after the fair
grounds are passed it has been found
that it will require §2,000 at least to
build the proposed cycle path to Johan
na. The county commissioners appro
priated $1,-floo for this purpose, inas
much as the amount will not be suffi
cient to complete the path, it will prob
ably be used in the construction of some
other path. The scenery between her*
and Johanna is eupurb, and it is much
to be regretted that the path will not
be built this year.
The Cleveland avenue path back of
the Town and Country club house is be
ing rapidly pushed to completion. There
is now money in the treasurer's hands
to insure a few paths being built this
year, and if the wheelmen keep the
good work up enough will probably be
raised to tally carry out the pl»ns of
the Cycle Path association. To do this
every wheelman must roll in his dollar.
Chairman Parraday, of the road rec
ord committee of the C. R. C. has of
fered a $50 medal prize for the c!ub
member bringing in the largest num
ber of new members. The club will also
offer a half dozen or more medals to
wheelmen bringing in the next largest
number of* new members.
St. Paul's example in taking the I«ad
in the matter of construction of cycle
paths has been well followed, as sev
eral important Minnesota towns have
already organized associations and are
in a fair way to build quite a system"
of paths this year. Win.ona and Brain
erd both have active associations.
Just four weeks from yesterday the
Laurel club will bring off their annual
Como road race. The race committee
of which Dr. M. O. Nelson is chair
man, are busy with the entry and prize
lists, which are growing da,ily. It is
expected that the Como course will bs
in prime condition by the 25th, as th«
recent rains have settled the surface of
the road bed so that there are no bad
sandy places in the road.
A Bordeaux cyclist intends to ride
backwards from Soulac to Bordeaux a
distance of ninety-two miles. An Eng
lish rider some time ago. rode back
ward from Lcndon to Bilghton.
Reports from the Western summer
reports indicate that great preparations
are being made for an extensive busi
ness this season, many Easterners hav
ing made arrangements to spend the
summer in Michigan, Wisconsin, and
other Western resorts, rather than risk
being blown to pieces by Spanish shells
It is safe to say that those who take
bicycles with them will find the soiies
that there are no ridable roads in th<
wild and woolly West to be stories pure
and simple, and that, on the other hand,
reports are t rU2 j n many instances;
Still, there are thousands of miles in
splendid roads, in Wisconsin in par
ticular. It must be borne in mind that
W isconsin, of all the Western division,
is doing more good work for the better
ment of the public highways. The
wheelmen of the Badger state may, aft
er all, feel that they have been repaid
for the interest they have taken in tlrs
vvork. Good roads provoke touring if
anything will, and the more people who
fly around the ttate on bicycles the
mere money is dumped Into the coffers
of the state's hotelkeepers and mer
chants. — Detroit Free Press.
The judg? cf a court at Grand Raoids
has rendered a decision which is" re
garded as unique and which will un
doubtedly result in the case being
brought before the supreme court of i
the state. A woman, cyclist, while rid
irg on the streets of the city, rode into
a rut and was thrown from her wheel
sustaining serious damage. She enter
ed a suit against the city fcr damages, |
but was defeated, the court deciding
that when a street was safe for four
wheeled vehicles the city could not be
held responsible for accidents befall
ing bicycle riders. In his classification
of the bicycle the court reaches tho
following Interesting conclusion, which
is a portion of the decision:
"A bicycle differs materially from any
other form of vehicle, and is, in fact
only a vehicle when being actually rid
den: at all other limes its classification
is changed. When not a vehicle wht-n
being ridden it is oftenest found to b>
baggage or lugsage. As a vehicle it
can only be ridden lawfully wher? other
vehicles can travel and is prohibited
from the sidewalks; as ba.egage, when
not ridden it may be rolled or carried
upon the sidewalk or elsewhere the
atone as a satchel or carpet bag cr o:her
burdle. and occupies less space often
than suoh bag or package. As a vehi
cle it cannot be propelled through the
walks of our parks; as bageag^ tt
may be rolled anywhere; as avehicle
it cannot lawfully run along a railroad'
though as baggage it is checked upon
the cars the same as trunks ajid boxes.
So in this case we have to deal with a
knd of quasi vehicle, that from its p=
culiar construction and use may have
a strong influence upon the law from
that applicable to usual damage suits."

CHICAGO, June 4.— Wisconsin's ath
letes for the annual gam:s of the Inter
collegiate Amateur association, at Park
S:de today, secured sixty-one points.
Northwestern was second with forty
three. The work was disappointing and
no records w-ere broken. Several of
Wisconsin's supposedly strong men
were fortunate to get place.?, and, had
the three de.-erting colleges participat
ed, it is hardly probable the Badgers
could have won. Northwestern's men
did better than expected, and gave the
Cardinal a gocd race. Maybury, the
cause of all the trouble, won the 100
--yard run in even time, but did not enter
the 220. He was kept up late last night
by the squabble and aid not feel well.
Cassaday, of Perdue, won from Fox, of
Wisconsin, rather easily.

HARVARD IS IN COOD TRIM
CREWS LEAVE FOR NEW LON
DON JUNE 8
Coach Lcliiiiniin IsWell Pleased With
the Condition of the Crews
Win «»i- Lose, This Will Be His
Last Year With Them Ei»lit to
Take Part in the Bis Race Light
er Than Usual.
CAMBRIDGE, June 4. — Harvard's
Varsity freshman crews will leave
for New London on Wednesday morn
ing, June 8, and will arrive at Red Top
in time for luncheon. The shells will
be sent down with the men, and there
will be rowing on the Thames in the
afternoon.
That Coach Lehmann will have the
men row over the course on the very
day of their arrival shows that the
English coach means business this
year. Until the day of departure the
men will continue to row on the Charles
river, while Coach Lehmann shouts
his criticism at them through the meg
aphone from the new Harvard launch.
The race comes so early and the final
examinations so late it will compel the
men to take most of their examinations
at New London. In fact some of them
are obliged to take an examination in
the forenoon and pull an oar in the
great race in the afternoon. This was
one of Capt. Perkins' chief objections
to rowing the race on the 22d, saying
that no man could row as strong a race
after taking an examination the same
day.
In an interview. Coach Lehmann says
he will take a lighter crew this year
than last year, but that what the men
lack in weight they will make up in
pluck and skill. On the whole, Mr.
Lehmann is fairly well pleased with the
crew.
The watermanship is not as he would
have it, but is fast improving. The two
weeks at New London before the race
will be spent in perfecting the water
manship and improving the stroke.
After the race the crew will return to
Cambridge for class day and com
mencement exercises. The freshman
race will probably be rowed on class
day, June 24.
This week, Capt. Perkins took his old
place at No. 6 in the 'varsity boat and
his brother, who has been substituting
him during his illness, falls back with
the substitutes. Today George Derby,
of the medical school, took Heath's
place at No. 5 oar, and the latter will*
be retained as a substitute. Derby
rowed bow in the 'varsity boat two
years ago, and is one of the best oars
men in the university. There is a
question whether Derby will be able
to go to New London so early on ac
count of his studies. If he does go, the
order of the 'varsity boat is practically
settled by this last change of Derby in
the place of ' Heath.
This leaves the crew rowing in the
following order, which will be final,
barring accident: Stroke, Dobyns; No.
7, Biddle; No. G, J. H. Perkins; No. 5.
Derby; No. 4, Higginson; No. 3, Wads
worth, No. 2, Blake; bow, Harding; sub
stitutes, Marvin, J. F. Perkins, Heath.
Coach Lehmann stated today that
whether Harvard won or not he should'
not return next year.
"I cannot," he said, "afford to spend
all of my fall and spring here, but I
do hope to visit America."
MAY OI T ST MrCKKNPUSS.
Said That Yon Der Ahe In After His
Scalp.
ST. LOUIS, June 4.— lt is stated on ex
cellent authority that before many moons
have waned President Muckcnfuss, of the
St. Louie base ball club, will be asked to
step down and out. When Chris Yon der
Ahe gave up the presidency. Secretary Muck
enfuss succeeded him. \on der Ahe. how
ever. wa3 given the position, of trustee of
the club, which, of course, left him still at
the head. Chri3 made all kinds of vows
that he would keep his hands off. the man
agement of the club and allow President
Muckenfuss to handle the reins as best he
could. This news was hailed with joy by
every base ball lover in the city, and un
til the present trouble came up everything
appeared to be sailing along smoothly.
For the first four weeks of the season
Chris never paid the slightest attention to
the playing of the Browns, and It seemed
to make little difference to him whether
they won or lost. Gradually, however, that
•>ld fever to "run dt whole shootin' match"
and conquer everybody in sight stole over
him. When he moved out of the president's
chair he did so with a feeling that there
was not a chance in the world for the team
to pull out of the rut. Muckenfuss, with
the able assistance of Tim Hurst, how
ever, managed to scrape together what
looked like a pretty fair aggregation of bali
players, and the team, as a whole, proved
fully 25 per cent a stronger one than the '97
team. After the team had won a few hard
fought battles, the fans commenced to flock
out to the park as they did in the olden
times. As a consea.uence. the big red safe
in the little office commenced to swell up,
and with It "Der Boss" got chesty. In the
meantime, the fire insurance had been paid,
and the balmy summer 3un of Way found
the club in better financial condition than
it had enjoyed in years.
When New York came here the locals
were playing a splendid article of ball and
succeeded In capturing two of the *• four
games from the visitors. The Sunday crowd
was a record breaker, and it opened Chris'
eyes. That old desire to boss and bluff at
once reasserted itself, and Der Bc*s com
menced to cast envious glances at hi-s ex
secretary's job. The public was giving Presi
dent Muckenfuss and Hurst all the credit,
while Chris had to stand by and play the
bass fiddle.
Fre;ident Muckenfuss was asked if there
was any truth In the report being circu
lated that Yon der Ahe and he had clashed
on certain matters pertaining to the man
agement of the club's affairs. The president
denied that there was any ground for such
a rumor.

Ed Brown ("Brown Dick"), who developed
Plaudit, says of that colt: "He is a better
horse than his j.ire. Himyar, wan. He Is fast
and laay; won't do any more than you make
him do; is the best feeder and traveler you
ever saw, and knows more than most men.
They said 4ie couldn't go a Derby route be
cause he was a Hinyar. didn't they? Well,
he can go as far as anybody's horse can. He
can go out on the track and run a horse's
eye out, and it don't make any difference
to him whether he beats the horse the first
eighth of a mile or the last eighth of three
miles. He can beat him anywhere he likes."
Pat Dunne supplemented this with "A lot of
people say Lieber Karl is no good because
Plaudit beat him. Lieber Karl is just aa
good as he ever was. He can't beat Plaudit,
but he can beat all tho horses he could beat
before he met Plaudit." — Chicago Racing
