IN THE WHEELING WORLD. 1
r
W V V V H y ) 3P 3
The recent freak performance by a
Woman ou a whoel In the vicinity of New
JYork City has provoked warm criticism of
the promoters of tho shocking exhibition.
"It was about time," says the Drooklyn
Eagle, "that the authorities Btopped the
disgraceful show on the Merrick road. Miss
.(last was auxlous to ride 3,000 miles within
h given period and break the record. To
to this she had been riding her bicycle for
Ixtcen hours a day for twelve days. The
law forbids any rldlnn for records for more
than twelve hours and the law had to be
passed to put au end to tho exhibitions
Riven !u tho name of sport in the Madison
Square Garden, when poor, misguided fools
would ride themselves Into a state of col
lapse for the sako of making a record bet
tor than any one else had made, and also
to Incrvaso tho wealth of some speculator
In physical endurauce. After tho passage
of tho law tlo. six-day races In the Garden
ceaoed to bo profitable. They wero renewed
ton a smaller scale on tho Merrick road,
'whero a thrifty hotel keepor conceived the
Idea of having women ride for a week or
inoro with trainers and pacers. Three or
four misguided women, ono or two marrfd,
and the rest unmarried, have ridden day
after day till they were so exhausted that
ther could barely walk and always had to
bo lifted from their wheels. And the only
result of their exertions was to bring
bicycle riding Into disrepute and to In
crease the income of the keeper of a road
house.
"It la doubtless impossible to prevent
any ono from' having a fool ambition, but
it Is fortunately possible to prevent Its
gratification when there Is Involved any
shameful exhibition of the endurance,
either of men or of women. Dlcyclo riding
for pleasure is a delightful sport, not so
popular as It was a tew years ago, but there
aro still people who enjoy It and who havoi
not abandoned It for golfing or automobtl-'
tng. Thoso who do enjoy It will be glad
that In this state, at any rate, It can no
longer be abused, The law lays down such
conditions that It will not be possible for
any road house speculator to persuade
other women to attempt to break Miss
Cast's record. For this all ought to bo
thankful."
CurtouBly enough, while tho wheel Is less
favored than formerly as a method of exer
cise and enjoyment, foreign military ex
perts are zealously studying its capabilities
as an adjunct In warfare. This Is especially
the case In England, France and Germany,
whore the excellent roads make whoellng
easy. Experiments on an extensive scale
have been tried In the British, French and
German armies for tho purpose of testing
Its value under campaign conditions, and
If a great war should occur within the next
fsw ycara It U reasonably certain that the
combatants on both sides will employ
clouds of bicyclists as scouts and advance
guards.
Next season's field of professional sprint
riders will be altered so much that u year
or more will have to be Bpent In develop
ing a field such as Is at present seen.
Coopor. Stevens, Klser, Downtng, Freeman
'and many more will withdraw altogether.
The present season has been such a poor
proposition to the sprint riders that tho
old-timers, accustomed to making big
money, cannot reconcllo themselves to
making just a plain, ordinary living. They
have tired of the game, anyway, and have
learned that a 1 If o without racing is very
attractive The amateur ranks will provide
the field for another season 'and a new age
of cycle racing will be Inaugurated, It U
sincerely hoped that this new field of rid
ers will study tho situation very carefully
and profit by the mistakes of their prede
cessors. Sprint cycle racing needs a spur
ring on 'and an Iron band. Not that all
sprint riders' aro alike, but tho Innocont
suffer Mid are being driven from tho field
by the errors ot.tbo select few who choose
to cast a shadow over the game.
A new four-wheeled electric- vehicle has
made Its appearance, which, If successful In
endurance teats, Is likely to create some
stir In the automobile world. The Inventor
Is a Cleveland man, who Is looking for back
ing for his sew and, at yst, unnamed ma
chine. A working model was on exhibition
last week and was inspected with much In
terest by some of tho members of tho Auto
mobile club of Cleveland. The most strik
ing thing about the machine Is Its lightness.
Tho ordlnury electric vehicle, with ltB heav
ier storage battery, weighs nearly a ton nnd
a half. This machlno weighs SCO pounds,
tho body of the carriage weighing 200 pounds
and the batteries 160. To Illustrate the ease
with which It Is handled the Inventor picked
up the rear end of it and half carried, half
pushed it out into the road, swung It around
and took It back again. It Is a trifle smaller
than the locomobile, carries two passengers
and can be run into an ordinary baggago
car. Tho wheels are ordinary bicycle wheels
and tho motlvo power is transmitted by a
blcyclo chain.
As far as speed and endurance goes, the
machine does not seem to deservo the name
of "toy," which Is given to many light car
riages. Whtlo hero Its owner ran It a dis
tance of forty miles without recharging, and
It Is claimed that It is capable of taking a
12 per, cent grade, Tho secret of its In
creased' power lies In the storage batteries,
and that Is, of course, religiously guarded.
The batteries are small and could be Inclosed
In an ordinary soap box. The lead plates
aro bound together with a wrapping of cellu
loid cloth. The batteries, motor and con
troller are all In the body of the carriage.
This winter's season of Indoor racing,
which is being planned on a mora ezUnilv
scale than ever, will be enlivened by the
presence in competition against tho best
American Indoor rlderB of Jacqucltn, the
Frenchman, now tho world's champion
sprinter, by reason of his victory over tho
best men of the world at the races of the
Parts exposition this summer. It is a long
time eIiico a man of his undoubted speed
visited this country, and bis work on this
side will bo closely watched by the experts,
He Is ono of the three or four best riders In
France. In hit, early career, In 1892 and
1893, he distinguished himself by defeating
such men as Danker, Harden, Edwards, u
rand, Morln, Qougoltz and others of tho best
that could bo pitted against him, His first
noteworthy performance was tho winning of
tbe Orand I'rlx de Madagascar, over Danker,
October 20, 1894, after which he won grand
prlx after grand prlx, In 189G he defeated
most of the Americans who visited France,
and was conceded then to bo the fastest
short distance rider in Europe. Then be
went Into the army, as all French riders are
required to do, and signalized his release
from his three years' service by winning the
short distance championship from a big field,

himself, Meyers, the champion of Holland,
and Arend, champion of Germany.

to a narrow canvas belt, which must be
placed on the wheels when tbe tires are de
