lslieu FIRST lieutenant. This closes the
first year of an organization which
was started in the face OF difficulties
which would have frightened body
OF young men less enthusiastic and
less determined than they were. At
that time law against bicycling on
the streets had passed one reading,
and 80 great was the pressure that a
small party of young men who had
attempted to introduce the sport and
had bought tiue wheels, disbanded in
disgust. But, satisfied themselves that
the courts would not prohibit man
fom riding on two or three wheels il
he preferred them TO four, the new
club lost no time In convincing the
city officials of that fact, and
boldly mounting their steel steeds
wheeled through the principal
streets and along the leading drives
without opposition. A strong local
prejudice which existed was also re-
moved, and, for the purpose of edu-
eating the Memphis public in bicyc-
ling, six OF the finest riders in the
world were brought to Memphis and
gave an exhibition in the Exposition
Building. Thousands went to see
them and the last night the club and
the riders we're given a grand ovation.
The club in the spring liner BASED to
neatly twenty members, leased q
piece Of ground, built quarter-mile
race. track and established Cycle Club
Park. This was prelimiT airy to a
grand race meeting, the first ever
given in the South. Many OF the BET t
men in the city became honorary
members, and aided the club
in it's effort, which waSa brilliant
success. Gold and silver prizes and
purses amounting to $1,000 were given,
and amateur and professional riders
from all over the country competed.
In one race six States we're repre-
sented. The grand stand was graced
daily during the three days Of the
races with the grace and beauty OF the
city, but the sport was new aud the
crowd was not large enough. The
club has since, however, entirely re-
covered from the severe blow dealt at
lts finances, and starts the new year
with clean sheet. 1t is hoped that
those who stood by it before will cor
tinue to do 60 aud that the Memphis
Cycle Club, like everything else that
Memphi does, will lead the van.

GOSPEL MEETINGS.
sAYFORD AND TOwNEH, THE
EMINENT EVANGELISTS,
Presbyterian Church-Inter-
esttng Exercises.

The fiut Of the new series of revival
meetings at htsiCouIt Street Cum
berland Presbyterian Church Ia
night was well attended. The serv.
ices were conducted by the evan
gelsts, Messrs. Sayford and Towner,
and were introduced with a duet
by Mr.. Towner and wife, which
was a revelation in church music. Mr..
Towner has a fiue tenor voice, full,
rich and Of great compass and power,
while his wifs is one OF the finest altos
ever heard in Memphis. After prayer
by several ministers present, Mr.. S. M.
Sayiord Of Boston preached the SER
mon, taking his text from the thirty
second psalm. HIS argument was log
iCa', scholarly and impressive. Mr..
SayfOrd is an eloquent speaker, OF
great personal magnetism, and was
closely followed by his hearers to the
close. 1t was the genera " expressed
opinion of those present that Mr.. Say
foTd's sermon was one OF the ablsst
efforts ever heard from a Memphis
pulpit, and was an intellectual treat OF
the highest order. The result Of the
meeting was several conversions. At
the conclusion of the services Mr..
Sayford announced that he would
preach again tomorrow morning at II
O'Clock, after Bible reading, and again
at night at the usual hour. Everybody
is invited ID attend. No tickets are
necessary, and it is safe to predict that
the church will be packed to its ut
mort capacity. Comparisons, Of course,
as a rule, are in bad taste, but it is
only due to Messrs. Sayf)rd and
Towner to say, in conclusion, that
they lost nothing by comI arison with
Messrs. Moody and Sankey, while
many of those present were OF the
opinion that they were far superior to
the eminent evangelists who preceded
them,

An Italian named Joseph Uriger
called upon United States Marshal
Freeman yesterday morning to arrest
Il CountTyman named Dominica Vic
chelle for obtaining registered letter
from the Memphis postoflice addressed
to him and containing q money order
for So in his favor. Marshal Free
man accompanied Urigler to dive
near the corner OF Poplar street, on
the river front, where he ioInd
some twenty desperate Characters sit
ting about. At his suggestion Urigler
stepped up to VicchPlle and addressed
him. He was a. once arrested, and
talked volubly in English at first. He
was asked what he did with the letter,
and said he lost it. He claimed
that the man to whom it
was addressed was his brother, but
Urigler denied it, He atterward de-
MED all knowledge OF the letter, and
by the time he reached the Court
House his English had become go
rusty that an interpreter had to
be procured. He was asked to
write his name, and when it
was compared with the name on
the registers receipt book, the proof
was established. Joseph Theirs, the
registry clerk, said that Vicchelle
called for the letter, and when asked
to identify himself said he knew no
one here, but had the letter written to
him, stating that registered
letter had been sent. This
was identification sufficient, and
the registered letter was given him.
Urigler said Vicehelle and he had
been partners, one selling birds and
the other sharpening knives. He
received notice that registered letter
had been sent him and in some way
Vicchelle obtained possession of it..
Commissioner Andrews sent him to
Jail in default OF $500 bond.

in the city as one Of the basl o3 Of the

with his recent trouble in baseball
circles, Mr.. Baker says the Nashville
club cannot hold him, as Syracuse has
the prior claim, owing 10 his signing
with Nashville before the Southern
League had protection as to contracts.
In his int srview with an APPEAL re-
porter he says the Nashville people
have not stood up to their part OF the
contract, which is the reason he broke
faith with them and signed contract
with the Syracuse club. We hope the

club will discover some plans by
which they can re ain him.

Patrolman Faver yesterday arrested
a repulsively ugly black negro, about
eighteen years old, on information
that he made the recent attempt to
outrage Mrs. Barron, a white woman,
employed as cook by Capt. Collier,
who resides near the corner Of Manassas
and Poplar streets. The darby gave
his name as VIM. Nelson, and taid he
worked at Emmett Doyle's butcher
shop, on Bradford street, aud
that he lived on Goat Hill, Of
which classic locality he was a
naive product. Mrs. Barron was
sent for as soon as Nelson was
locked up and instantly identified
him. The recognition was instan-
taneous and Mrs. Barron will have no
hesitation in testifying to the scoun-
drel's identity on the stand. He an
swers the description OF the fiend who
has made a number Of assaults of a
similar nature in the same locality.
and it is very likely that several young
women will be summoned to appear
in the police court this morning to
testify against him.
