    THE COURIER.
The run next Sunday should be the
banner Sunday run of the aeaaon,
weather and wind permitting. The
course to Ashland is one .of the very
best out of Lincoln, with but two hills,
and at least a hundred wheels should be
in line, of which twenty or more should
be ridden by ladies.
Score another cycle club, viz the
Ramblers Club. It is composed of
Messrs. W. G. Beach, R. S. Hayes, F.
B. Strangaard and Paul Puree!!. The
club all ride copper rimmed Ramblers
and the glint of their wheels can be
seen for miles when the sun strikes
them. They ride "always together.
How about those cycle picn.es!
Ho! for Ashland Sunday.
The start will be made at 7 a. m.
How many ladies will make the ride?
The Ashland run was the banner run
of last year.
This year's run ought to throw it id
the shade.
Let us make it 100 wheels!
The Race Meet.
The race meet on Decoration day was
considerable of a success in spite of the
rain which came up in the afternoon.
The new track was opened and an
interesting program was given.
The parade in the city and out to the
park was a creditable one, in which a
novel feature of a tandem wheel was
introduced drawing a four wheel sulky
on which was seated a young lady.
On account of the weather the crowd
was not large.
The first event was a one mile novice
race. Those entered were: J. A. Ben
son, J. A. Bailey, jr.; Alva H. Halloy,
O. Adkineon. J. A. Bailey, jr., got first
place and won the prize. His time
was 250 4-5. Alva A. Halley took sec
ond. The second event was a quarter mile
open race. The racers were: A. E. Guile,
0. M. Carter, A. H. Halley' W. T.
Banks, F. M. Tessier, Sutton, Neb.; C.
0. McDowell, A. M. Blake. W. T.
Banks came out ahead in this race. His
time was 40 1-5 seconds. F. M. Tessier
of Sutton took second.
The third event, a half a mile open,
was participated in by F. G. Yule, A. .
Yule, J. A. Benson, J. A. Bailey, jr., C.
ML Carter, A. H. Halley, W. T. Banks,
O. Adkineon, F. M. Tessier, A. M. Blake.
F.M. Tessier first, time 1-191-2; C. M.
Carter second.
A boy's mile race was the fourth
eent,. The ltoys who rode were: Frank
Camp, Max Roediger, Dot Gaylor, Tom
Draper. Max Roediger won the mile in
3:27, Frank Camp won second.
The fifth race was a one mile open
race. J. A. Benson, A. Bailey, A. H.
Halley, W. T. Banks, F. M. Tetsier, C.
C. McDowell were the ones who rode.
This was one of the prettiest races of
the meet. On the last third Bailey
took a sudden spurt and everyone
thought he was a sure winner but Tes
sier made a tremendous effort just
before the tape was crossed and came
out a little in the lead. He made the
mile in 2:58 3-11.
The sixth event was a one mile for
liders thirty years and over. W. L.
Hunter, Ed M. Allen and Mr. Grubb,
were the racers. W. L. Hunter won the
race in 3.-09 4-5. Ed M. Allen was second
The seventh event was a two mile
open race. The men who entered were:
F. G. Yule, J. A. Benson, C. M. Carter,
W. T. Banks, C. C. McDowell and W.
H. Exling. C. M. Carter got the race "Reliable"
in 7:38; Banks second. Frank Lahr.
The eighth event wasahaif mile, class
B, against time, tbe time limit 1:10 E.
E. Mocket entered and made it in
107 1-5. The track was in poor condi
tion at the time, the rain having made
it heavy.
The ninth and last event was a five
mile handicap, class A. Those who
started were F. G. Yule, scratch; J. A.
Benson, seventy yards; J. A. Bailey,
fifty yards; C. M. Carter, scratch; A. H.
Halley, scratch; W. T. Banks, 100 yards;
O. Adkineon, 200 yards; F. M. Tessier,
scratch. But the racers had no more
than got well started than it began to
pour down rain and the course got bo
greasy that the men fell all over the
track and the referee called them off.
During the greater part of the races
the track was in a very poor condition
on account of rain and poor time made.
Why cannot Lincoln wheelmen have a
distinctive parade? What a sight that
must have been in Chicago last Sunday
when nearly 3,000 cyclists wheeled out
of that city over the Evanston course!
The Courier will next week inaugur
ate a contest that will interest every
wheelman or wheelwoman in the city.
Lookout for the details in the next
issue.
It is interesting to note the victory
claimed by the several manufacturers of
wheels represented in the bicycle races
at Lincoln Park on Decoration day.
The honors Beem to be about evenly
divided between the Kearney and the
Syracuse. Below is given the result as
figured by one of the local racing men.
Syracuse 4 starters, 2 firsts, 1 second,
1 third.
Kearney 3 starters, 2 firsts one second
Stearns 3 starters, 1 first, 1 second,
1 third.
Munger Six starters, 1 first, 1 sec
ond, 1 third.
The Courier Cyclist is indebted to
Mr. Guthrie, agent for the Rambler, for
the gift of a Standard Cyclometer, and
herewith extends his thanks for the
means of ascertaining the distance tra
versed on his wheel. Mr. Guthrie han
dles the Standard and all other cycle
sundries.
The Wanderers were to have had a
picnic after the races of Thursday to
which the 4 Cs were invited guests
Both were disappointed by the rain.
Lookout for The Courier contest.
It will make wheelmen's mouths water.
And it rained.
And the grand stand was dry in
spots.
And Tessier of Sutton, who knows?
Mockett and Carter rode Syracuse
wheels.
Mud! Mud!! Mud!!!
The new Kearney special rode by
Tessier was the object of much admir
ation. Bloomers were out in force.
Manager Holt had the track ready.

A CHANGE OF VIEW.
I hate the wesc wind on my face,
The wind that blows through infinite
ppace,
That comes all thick with dust and sand
And cooks the crops on every hand;
That gives the farmers all the blues
And even fries the poet's muse.
Hot and fierce and strong and wild
You make me feel like I was "biled"
Wind of the west you make me tired
I wish someone would get you fired.
J hate the west wind on my face,
The wind that makes the sweat drops
chase
In rivulets down my heated face.
I'm sorry that I wrote, alas, alack!
The poem in your praise last week,
But in these lines revenge I seek.
Hot and fierce and strong and wild,
You make feel completely "riled''
Wind of the west you make me tired
I wish some one would get you fired.
