One Thrown Over = Fence - Bicycles

CHICAGO, August7.-With a thousand
cycles flying with the speed OF wind un-
der the control Of bare-legged, sunburn-
ed young men, about its great track, the
Chicago ball park attracted an immense
crowd to-day to witness the first days
sport OF the fourteenth annual meeting
of the wheeImen Of the world.
The first contest was one mile
novice race for a $50 gold watch. Z. V.
Van Boeckman finished an easy first 10
2:34 3-5. Some delay was experienced
in getting the entries for the one-third
mile open. Zimmerman soon took the
lead, with the others punched well be-
hind. His time was IL 3-5.
The half-mile handicap was won by
A. j. Brown, of Cleveland, In l:04. The
next race was two mile championship
and ful! Of favorites. As the familiar
faces OF Sanger, Lumsden, Windle and
Zimmerman came around In front OF
the stand the crowd cheered lustily.and
a roar went up as the men got away,
with the two rivals, Sanger and Zim-
norman, side by side In the rear.
When the quarter was reached they
spurted to the front and then began 8
terrible contest. As they cleared the
half the spectators were horrlted to see
the leader waver and fall and in an in
slant there was crash as the entire
bunch ran into him. Sanger's wheel
struck the fence and threw him head
long over it. From the mass OF twisted
tires, bent handles and broken spokss
the rest Of the racers crauied
and limped to their quarters while the
attendants gathered up the remains OF
the once, shapely machines and laid
them away in sheds. Sanger's leg was
somewhat bruised. while his companions
suffered severe shaking up.
