Hurling ton and Council Ulutls nro also expected to bo represented , This recatta will try an experiment that may revolutlonl/e amateur bontnig. Instead of a mile nnd a luilf oouri > o It will huvo Junior nnd senior races pulled lu heats over a quarter nulo and return , the winner to take two out ot three. This will bring the entire race within view of the spectator and niuku n hot , exciting contest. Many promt- nt'iit boating men uuvo endorsed thu Innova tion as the best possible plan to popularize thu sport , and the Spirit Lnka cxpcilinent will be watuhod with lively Interest lu beau lug circles all over tlio country , Tuoro will alio bu fveo-for- races ever thu old mlle and u half course for the houuilt of umaieur from other state * . A Trliiiiip for llt'iiiiy U'urk , Team work and good taio ninulng Is the secret nf the Columbiu club's lucres * . In a majority of the gumos playoJ liuro tba homo team ontbattvd the Duckoycs ever two to one , ami still were almost Invariably beaten. If tuo White Sox scored you could bet your life it was an earned tally , and was sent over the plato by hard hlltinc. That is the only way Omsba could win a giuco from ScbmeU's crow. On the other hand Colum bus secured her runs by reckless ch.inco- taking , peed base running nnd all-round huiuiv play. In the gumo here last Wednes day , 'when Undo distinguished himself for stupidity , Omaha hud three turned tallies to her credit , while Columbus had none , still they won the game 4 to a. Fast buso run- nlni ; nnd headwork will win nine times out of ten , ucainst heavy ulttluR and woodon- hendod iieldlnjj. Not a single toara in the circuit won the series from Columbus In the tirt division , and it seems that they do not intend to profit by their experience. Omaha , Milwaukee , In dianapolis , Toledo , and even Kan- sag City , are equal in individual strength to tha Uuckoyo team , and with a llttlo moro vim nnd dash in tholr conflicts with her they will greatly augment the excitement ever the second series. Priiipruti , fur Olilckuu Mioatliit ; . C. P. Hubbard , the well known proprietor of the Orokcn Bow kouncls , now la Kear ney , writes the Forest and Stream : A scarcity of game is reported from the south- cin and western states' , ow.ng to the Into spring and heavy floods.

" C'Imtly Letter from I'.rlio l.iil ' . ECHO I..VKI : , July 1. Dear M : Have Jut tlulsboa my dlslmashlnir , a task that § 00IBS to fall on the uninitiated tenderfoot. I am now located at Echo Lake , ulna miles from Idaho Springs and 11,000 foot above tbo sea lovol. Left the springs yesterday ut 'J o'clock In company with Moi&rs. Lout and Smith , two dlsclplot of Illnckstono , one deal ing out the law iu Denver and thu other la Idauo Sprint' . To tug uueophlttlcatcd horseman like myself , our very start was fraught 'vith danger. About one mlle from town found a bridge washed out , necessitat ing n ford inj water six to eight feet deep , running liKe a mlll-rnco. Accepted the serv ices of ono of tlio natives who guaranteed to got thn horses over while we crossed on the lomnins of the wagon bridge. First two horses mauo it all right , hut the third took it Into his head to take a swim down toward Denver and made a dismal failure ot it.horso and riaer hemp nearly drowned In the raging flood. However , the aforesaid native had considerable Yankee pluck in his make up and finally turned his hoi so back to shore. Wo theu irot him over on au improvised foot bridge. It is with a great deal of baciiward- ness , not duo to my modesty , tnat I recount the trials and tribulations of thotlrstllvo mlles of our road to Echo. You know my extreme fondness for horses atul my great accomptishmoats In the equestrian line. . I rode a nag that was un equine tartar. The saddlebags evidently chafed him a llttlofor _ ho persisted in Kicking and making incipient "bucks. " In my efforts to oulct him I nearly rode him off the bank Into the stream , aud I finally told Smith and Long that I had enough aud was going to turn bacK. They refused to part with ray comp.my , an action on their part that highly tickled my self-concolt. Found out later their willingness to keep mo company lay in two pints ot old rye reposing uently lu my sandlo ba s. After changing to another horse we proceeded up the canon , and as I had lost some of my nervousness I began to enjoy the magnificent scenery. The road U iiko most mountain highways , follow ing tlio stream , wnich is bordered by a most luxuriant growth of wild llowora and ferns. Columbines , lupines , violets , Sweet William , oluobolls aud other beautiful and odoriferous lluwera were In countless prolusion. On our light \\oro massive rocks with towering peaks above , clothed in their mantle * of eter nal snow. Uut the most stupendously grand portion of the rlrto did not commence until wo struck the trail , which winds In and out tin the flldo of the mountain. You can Jud o something of the ascent when I toll you wo raised from 7,500 feet to 11,000 In four miles. Thu trull looks like a more sheep p.itli , uor- dorcd on the left bv a most Indescribable con fusion of rocks. (3n ( the rlgnt considerable dlstunco below lay the rushing streamwhoro a misstep of our horses would laud us. The last two miles of our Journay lay through u ilonso forest of mammoth plno . Passing through this the siieuca w.is only b.-okcn by the tramping and putting of tuo horses and the occasional cry ot the chlpn.unk. It scoii.ed as though nature had stilled all of her voices to prepare us for the magnificent finale. Wo finally broke through the pines into the clearing and before us lay Echo lake , its waves bathed in the rnys of a de clining sun. To the west lay Mounts Koiallo , Edith and Evans ; to the northwest Long's ' and James' peaks , all completely covered with the everlasting snow , it was u most magnificently grand sight. Our Hand Long forgol his accustomed dignity and his forty odd years and gave vent to his feelings In a wnoon that would have dorm credit to un Apache. For mysoif I was astoMidad bv the grandeur nnd only came to myself when f found the lilfh altitude hoplnnlne to work on mo it ) the form of noio bleed. Shall stay hero two or three days , depopulating the luico and streams of the wily trout , which appear to abound hereabouts.

The Fremont Wheel club in their neat black caps , with tlio club emblem fastened to the fore crown , presented a metropolitan ap- pouranco. It was noticed that the ladies who cycle were quita numerous upon the streets Wednesday evening. Their wheels were mot at every turn , singly , in pairs ami squads of four and five. It was a line even ing for riding and tha fair cyclists took ad vantage of the fact nnd enjoyed thomsolvos.

While this Is all very well for ino cyclists themselves , It is "lough" on the club runs and proven a great detriment to the progress of tha club. In many cases the cause lies with the club it self. Thu olllcorn are elthor too incompetent to govern or don't cuio enough about the on Jovment of thu mem bora on the run to look after their wants nud requirements.
