Promptly at 1880 yesterday morning
Albert Schock. the perSoniication OF pluck
and endurance, was astide his new
Champion wheel, and started on his second
DAYS tourney ut the signal. Woodside,
the whirlwind, was little slow in getting
off. but he soon regained the distance lost
thereby. and then made a squirt and passed
by. II was a wonderful disply on the part
of both. All day they rode almost un-
tiringlv. Schock as a rule took mat
ters cool and easy. His side-wheel
motion. which always characterizeS
his riding, was observable from the
first. and he gave sway to his prodgious
appetite by frequently calling for a sand
witch, piece of pie, bottle of tea or an ice
cycle. During the first hour Woody"
made little sallies OF speed, and passed
Schock three times. During the hour he
covered 16 miles aud laps while Schocll
made just 16 miles At 1890 the score
stood: WOodslde 226 miles and l lap, and
Schock 2l6 miles and 8 laps; at $3.50 it
stood: WOodSide. 269 miles and laps,
Schock, 259 miles even; at $50: WoOdside.
$40 miles and Schock 299 miles and laps
A comparison with the record of the last
race shows that both men have exceeded
their record. On the second day before
Schock ran 10 miles and Woodside 15I
miles.
All day Schock remained on the track,
only stopping long enough TO change mounts
a few times. His trainers state that he is
in as good form as when the race began
and that he will make more miles today
than he did yesterday. WOodSlde, on the
other hand, is not is as fine form. I'm
fortunately at about o'clock, after brief

tackled by stitch" in his left knee. which
bothered him some. He went of the track,
however, only live minutes and was rubbed
down and liberal application Of lmiment
was given. Later in the evening the
pain had gone and he rode as well
as was his wont. At 10 o'clock both men
were fonnd squirting, but woody" proved
the swiftest and gained another lap. AS
on the opening day the cyclists aim at
keeping about
HALF LAP APART,
except when squirting. WoodSide deter
minedly avoids anything like pacemaking,
and he constantly watches his opponents
movements. Should Schock lean over his
handles as though trying TO close up gap,
Woody begins forthwith to fly. and it is
then that the audience shouts with tumultu-
Gus excitement. Woody is manifestly the
favOrite among the scores, VINO constantly
applaud his wonderful efforts and call
tips" to him, so that he is posted con-
stantly on the condition of the race.
Very little betting was done yesterday.
Schock'S hackers took a station at the lower
end of the rink and closely watched the
progress of the struggle. but did not offer
to make wagers. Yet they claim to be per-
fectly confident in Schock's staying quail
ties and say they will be prepared to place
money on their man.
The last half hour witnessed a contin-
nous squirt, with Shock in the lead.
Woody attempted to pass several times
but failed. He then traled until the bell
rang for the close of the days race. Wood
side had made 172 miles and Shock 169
miles and three laps. or five laps less than
he made on the second day of his last race.
He came off the track nimbly and appar-
entity IN hne condition, but Woody was a
little lame.
