Bicycling Among French Women.

Says Margery in the american Athlete:
Miss Sarah Law. young lady visiting Bou-
logne, wears a cycling costume composed of
zouave knickerbockers, knee skirt and belted
blouse.
The French, with their usual aptitude for
raising mountain. have gone into an elaborate
discussion Of the wheelwoman's costume. A
prize was offered by one Of the cycle Journals
and was awarded to dress. or the idea of one,
intended to appear an ordinary walking
dress, but drawn up into Turkish trousers by
means OF eyelet holes around the bottom and
three or four yards of LAGER. The details, which
/ spare you, are bewildering. Oh. / am so
aweary Of this subject, this much ado about
nothing, this making difficulties where none
exist! Has common sense been taxed SO high
by the French government that it refuses to
ahght on Gallo soil? Here is some more of
their bosh which has been kindly sent to me by
friend across the water:
Bicycling is becoming very fashionable
among French women. when they get into the
country or settle for a time at q seaside resort.
The reason for the popularity of the wheel is
that it affords qAite exceptional opportunity
for the display Of a beautiful figure and form
and for clothing them in very novel garments.
Ladies can. and now do wear brooches of Suede
leather and CATERS, and seem not at all afraid
OF showing that they are doing so. Their
cheviot suits, which adorn them above those
breeehes, are cut very short, and show a neat
waistcoat. gold chain and charms. and a coat
open at the collar adorned with most fanciful
buttons, mostly huge. The throat is surrounded
by lace ruffle, a little smaller than the Eliza

message from Gen. Ordway to deliver TO the

place some weeks ago, when some Of the racing
men of the city had promised to ride the first

NOTES.
DR.. Tarrasch has refused Herr Lasker's
challenge to play a match for $500 on the
grounds that the latter has never won an Inter-
national Tournament. We think the stand
taken by the Nuremburg doctor is untenable
. The criticism in the Dublin Herald by the
Irish champion, Portcrfeld Rynd. on DIR.
Tarrasch's recent victory holds the committee
charged with the management of the tourna-
ment directly responsible for ~ points in
Tarrasch's score, the number by which he led
at the end. BY mutual consent the game be-
tween Tarrasch and Alapin WAS declared drawn.
Dr. NO0 IN MS contest Win Alapln failed to
make twenty moves within an hour. and the
latter claimed the game by forfeiture. The
committee rejected the claim. Loman, with q
winning position against Tarrasch, also failed to
make the required number Of moves in an hour
and the committee awarded the game to Tar
rasch. Aapin thereupon resigned from the
tournament, and although more than half of
the seventeen rounds had been played the com.
nittee refused to allow his score to stand. Thus
his one-haf Of the drawn game was restored to
Tarrasch. This 70 Mr.. Rynd's statement, but
Mr.. Steinitz points out variance between i,
and the report, contained in the Deutsches
Wochenschach, Of the Loman-Tarrasch partie.
This paper asserts that the committee ordered
another game to be played, which Was awarded
Tarrasch on the last day of the tournament, a.
Loman did not appear. We will not comment
upon the fairness of the committee until the
truth Of the matter is known. So
