RECORD BROKEN
AT SAN LEANDRO.
Great Excitement attended
the Twenty-Five Mile
Road Race.
FOSTER'S WONDERFUL RIDE.
Ulbricht Set the Pace, and
Schwall Captured First
Place.
The third annual 25-mile handicap road
race of the California Associated Cycling
Clubs was run yesterday over what is
known as the San Leandro triangle, and
was viewed by fully two thousand spec
tators.
The expectations of the knowing ones
that the record for the co.ursc would be
lowered were fully realized, as "Walter F.
Foster, the Olympic Club Wheelmen's
crack rider, covered the distance in 1 hour
12 mm. 55 4-5 sec, which is 6 mm.
8 1-5 sec. below the record as made by
WALTER F. FOSTER, THE CRACK RIDER OF THE OLYMPIC CLUB,
WHO LOWERED THE COAST RECORD IN A 25-MILE ROAD-RACE
AT SAN LEANDBO YESTERDAY.
[From a photograph.]
George Faulkner of the Acme Club Wheel- |
men two years ago.
The course over which this race is an- ;
Dually run was not in as good condition j
this year as formerly on account of the ;
heavy rains this winter. The riders also
had a strong north wind to contend with,
which must have retarded their speed
somewhat. But the improvements made
in bicycles the past two years and the
strenuous efforts made by each of the
riders in the race to bring the honors home
to his club doubtless account for the fact
that all but one of those who finished
the race rode within the record made by
Faulkner in 1893 of 1 hour 19 mm. 4 sec.
The associated clubs hold three great
road races every year, open only to riders
who are members of clubs belonging to the
organization. In February the 25-mile
race is run, the 100-mile relay around the
bay in April and a 10-mile race in October.
It was the first of these that was held yes
terday, it having been postponed since
Washington's birthday on account of the
rain. . "
The start had been advertised to be
promptly at 10 A. m., but it was thirty-five
minutes after that hour before all the
spectators, contestants and officials as
sembled at a point some 300 yards east of
San Leandro, on the Haywards road, and
De Witt Van Court, the starter, gave the
word to go to the two limit men, who
had ten minutes' handicap. In rapid suc
cession, with intervals of a minute and
less, twenty-seven other riders followed
them, the live men who rode from scratch
getting away at 10:45. They were: Henry
Smith and C. L. Davis. G. C. C; E. Ul
bricht, B. 0. W.; M.F.Rose, A. C. W.,
j and W. F. Foster, O. C. W.
S Of course the greatest interest was cen
■ tered in the efforts of these men, especially
i as to Ulbricht, Rose and Foster, between
i whom considerable rivalry exists. Ul
-1 bricht had the advantage, having been
staying in San Leandro the past week
training over the course. But the others
had not neglected themselves and Foster's
victory easily shows he is not yet a "back
number," as many seem to think.
The San Leandro triangle is about eight
and a third miles around, so it was neces
sary for the riders to circle it three times
to complete the required twenty -five miles,
the finish being on the San Lorenzo road
but a block- or two east of San Leandro.
The first time the riders passed this point
there was little change noticeable in their
Eositions. Ready, Goddard and Delmas
ad gained a trifle in time, but the limit
men were still a considerable distance
ahead. The scratch men went by in a
cloud of dust, Ulbricht leading, with the
others lapped on behind as closely as pos
sible. The pace was swift, the time for
the first eight and a third miles being 22
mm. 27 4-s sec.
The next time the riders hove in sight
the same trio as before were in the lead,
Schwall, Egeberg and Thomas. Langton
had lost some seconds. Ready and God
dard came past riding strong, and one by
one the others flew by until again" the
scratch men came into view, minus Davis,
whose wheel had failed him. It was seen
that Ulbricht was still setting the pace,
with Smith, Rose and Foster in that order
close behind. Thus far sixteen and two
third miles had been covered, the time be
ing 47 mm. 06 4-5 sec. from scratch.
It was now very apparent that a big piece
would be chipped off the former record
and many were the rash statements as to
who would do it. It was generally con
ceded that the time prize lay between
Ulbricht and Foster, and rival Bay Citys
and Olympics glared at each other in si
lence as they breathlessly awaited the an
nouncements from their lookouts, perched
in surrounding tree tops, that their men
were again in sight. But the Olympics
knew Foster could beat Ulbricht in the
final spurt .if the latter's terrific pace
throughout the race had not completely
tired their champion, so they exhibited
some confidence when speaking of the
possible result to bystanders.
* At last a bright red racing , suit flashed
around the turn a mile away and Schwall,
whose handicap was eight minutes, came
tearing down the road, just beating Ege
berg, whose time allowance was the same.
Then came Moody, a four-minute man,
closely followed by a bunch of five riders,
all striving for a better place at the finish.
It was now evident that the scratch men
had been overhandicapped, but not much,
for a yell from those in the treetops told
they were in sight, and down they came,

dictions of his friends by beating out Ul
bricht only in a short sprint at the finish.
Of the other scratch men Rose dropped
out on the third lap, while Smith finished
a minute back of the others.
All was excitement then, for the victory
was a popular one, and Foster was lifted
from his wheel by a score of willing hands,
while the still yelling crowd fell in behind
the march that was started for the hotel,
where the young rider was given an op
portunity to rest after his tiresome and
lengthy ride.
Of the original twenty -nine starters, but
sixteen finished, the pace being too fast for
the balance, who dropped out at various
places on the second and third laps and
rode home quietly by a different road,
wondering whether road-racing is all it is
cracked up to be. . .? -

QUICK AID TO THE INJURED.
! Doctor's Daughters Providing
Themselves With Emer
gency Boxes.
Will Take Steps to Introduce
the Ambulance System
Here.
The Doctor's Daughters will give a re
ception at the Century Club to their
friends and associate members on Satur
day afternoon at 3:30 o'clock, for the pur
pose of showing to their friends the good
work the society has lately been doing
toward giving emergency aid to the in
jured and to consider the question of ob
taining an ambulance system for the city.
They desire to say that the meeting will be
purely social and that no subscriptions will
be asked for.
The Doctor's Daughters have been re
ceiving lectures from Dr. Somers of the Re
ceiving Hospital on aid to the injured and
have lately been supplied with "emergency
boxes," which contain instruments, band
ages and other things usually necessary in
such cases. The cost is small, and many
outside of the society are availing them
selves of the opportunity to secure them.
The ladies have taken so much interest
. in the work that they propose to go on and
have the boxes introduced into factories
and other places where accidents are liable
to occur and where often immediate aid of
the right sort will save life. How far and
on what lines they will work has not been
thoroughly discussed, but the idea is to go
on and do such work as is done by the St.
John's Ambulance Society of London and
to see that this city has a proper ambu
lance system. San Francisco is now the
only city of any size in the country with
out one.
The officers of the society are : Mrs. P.
B. Horton, president; Miss Mary Hol
brook, vice-president; Mrs. D. T. Murphy,
secretary; Miss Fannie Crocker, recording
secretary; Mrs. Ementine Poole, cor
responding secretary; Miss Meda Bowman,
treasurer. Among the active workers are :
Mrs. Fred Green, Mrs. C. R. Winslow, Mrs.
Robert Oxnard, Mrs. H. M. A. Miller, Miss
Jennie Blair, Mrs. John McKee and Mrs.
Charles Tuttle. "

MISS WELLS ON
SOUTHERN MOBS.
Details of lynching Related
in Grace Methodist
Church.
THE REMEDY SUGGESTED.
A Fair Trial by Law for Those
Accused of Heinous
Crimes.
Miss Ida B. Wells delivered her lecture
on lynching in the South and its remedies
before the congregation of Grace Meth
odist Church yesterday morning after a
short sermon by the pastor, Key. E.
McClish.
The altar was festooned with bunches of
violets, which contrasted prettily with a
large vase of lilies on the communion
table in front. Every seat in the
auditorium was occupied, though the
greater number of people assembled were
women and children. Scattered through
the audience was a fair representation of
the colored people of the city, who came to
hear one of their own race speak in defense
of the many whose lives have been taken
without process of law. They had their
desires gratified, for the blood-curdling de
tails of mob rule, which are matters of
record, caused many of the women in the
audience to pale as the facts were stated in
a clear, ringing voice as the speaker pro
gressed.
For forty minutes Miss Wells held her
audience spellbound, though at times her
voice was choked with emotion as detail
after detail was related. Murmurs of hor
ror waved through the church when the
story of cruelty to Henry Smith, the negro
who was burned by a mob in Paris, Texas,
February 1, 1893, was told.
As to the remedy, she said:
It isa well-established principle of law that
every wrong has a remedy. Herein rests our
respect for law. The negro does not claim that
all of the 1000 black men, women and chil
dren who have been hanged, shot and burned
alive during the past ten years, were innocent
of the charges made against them. We have
associated too long with the white man not to
have copied his vices as well as his virtues.
But we do insist that the punishment is not
the same for botl\ classes of criminals.
In lynching, opportunity is not given the
negro to defend himself against the unsup
ported accusations of white men and women.
The word of the accuser is held to be true and
the excited blood-thirsty mob demands that
the rule of law be reversed, and instead of
proving the accused to be guilty, the victim of
their hate and revenge must prove himself
innocent. No evidence he can offer will satisfy
the mob; he is bound hand and foot and swung
Into eternity.
Therefore, we demand a fair trial by law for
those accused of crime, and punishment by law
after honest conviction. No maudlin sympa
thy for criminals is solicited, but we do ask
that the law shall punish all alike. We ear
nestly desire those that control the forces
which make public sentiment to join with us
in the demand. Surely the humanitarian spirit
of this country which reaches out to denounce
the treatment of the Russian Jews, the Arme
nian Christians, the laboring poor of Europe,
the Siberian exiles and the native women ot
India, will not longer refuse to lift its voice on
this subject.
If it were known that the cannibals or sav
age Indians had burned three human beings
alive in the past two years the whole of Chris-

tendom would be roused to devise ways and
moans to put a stop to it. Can you remain
silent and inactive when such things are done
in our own community and country? Is your
duty to humanity iv the United States less
binding?
The remedy lies with you, my friends. By
Christian efforts and true faith in the Lord
Jesu* Christ this stain upon our country can
be wiped out.
IDA B. WELLS ON LYNCHING.
She Says the White Kace Contaminates the
Black.
Ida B. Wells, the colored lecturer on
"Lynch Law in America," delivered an
address last night from the pulpit of the
First Congregational Church to an audi
ence that nearly filled the building.
The position taken by the speaker was
that the lynching and burning of negroes
had become a habit in many States North
and South that from its regularity needed
repression in the name of civilization,
morality and Christianity. In the recent
cases where negroes were burned by mobs,
the speaker declared there had always
been doubt of the guilt of the victims, and
seldom if ever any proof.
"You must take up the repression ,and
enter your protest," said she, "because it
is the white man and his government that
is on trial. The negro has lived too long
with the white man not to have copied as
many of his vices as of his virtues."
The white man was arraigned as vicious
and contaminating in his influence on the
negro race, and it was stated that when
the victim of the lynching was a negro the
action of the lynchers was never noticed, so
far as punishment was concerned, by the
legal authorities.
In a quiet but clear voice, with now and
then an emotional effect, and holding in
her hands a handkerchief that now and
then she twisted as though under strong
repression, the lecturer went rather further
in details than some of her audience
seemed to relish, for several left the church
during the delivery, and when the lecture
was concluded there was a feeling of relief
manifested by many.

he yelled for help. Policeman J. F. Dennan
heard his cries, and at his request he placed
Mrs. Coffey under arrest. She gave $10 cash
bail.
IN A DRAMA OF MORALITY.

\
Miss Marie Burroughs, who is to make
her appearance at the Baldwin Theater
this evening in Arthur W. Pinero's play,
"The Profligate," is a native daughter of
the Golden West. Her rise and success
in the world of the drama have been very
gratifying to her many admirers, who have
watched her blossom from a position in E.
S. Willard's company to a place that is
held by very few women on the American
stage. A host of Western friends will De
glad to greet her this evening, and espe
cially in a play by one of England's fore
most writers.
Mr. Pinero's drama deals with society
from the morality standpoint. It is spoken
of as being daintily constructed and full
of interest. Next week Miss Burroughs
will present "Judah," by Henry Arthur
Jones.
At the California Theater Hoyt's "A
Temperance Town" will begin its* second
week. The comedy has made a great suc
cess in this city, "and the players have
been well receieved. Miss Robinson, who
plays Ruth, is the young lady whom Mr.
Hoyt originally intended for the part.
"A Black Crook Up to Date," with
Thomas Leary, Florence Thropp, Alice
Raymond and'Senorita Matilda to amuse
the audience, will be continued at the
Alcazar this week. New specialties will be
introduced.
The Orpheum will have an entirely new
specialty bill to present to its patrons to
night. Les Quatre Diezs, the singers from
the Casino, Paris, head the list. The rest
of the programme is made up of interest
! ing attractions.
Miss Maud Edna Hall and Rev. J' Henry
Walker Harris, the Oakland divine, will
make their first appearance in "In the
Ranks" at Morosco's to-night. The drama
contains thirty-five speaking parts. It will
be staged and produced in first-class style.
"Olivette" goes on at the Tivoli for a
week's run. Mr. Hartmann has prepared
some new. local verses for his "Bob Up
Serenely" song, and will sing also a new
ballad. The position of treasurer at the
Tivoli, which was filled by J. Holtz for a
number of years, is now filled by John P.
Wilson. ' -':{!.
A number of new features will be seen in
the Stockwell Theater production of "The
Great Black Crook" to-night. *■ Georgius
Dadigo, a clever equilibrist, will be seen
