RACES AT NIGHT.
Bay City Wheelmen Plan
a Novel Meet.
Central Park to Be Brilliantly Lighted
and Cyciers to Contest Be-
meath the Glare.

The Bay City Wheelmen have compile ed
preliminary arran gements for an electric
light tournament OF wheels, to be given al
their Central Park grounds next month.
The events will be open to all amateurs,
whether members of the club or not,
though the championship races will be
confined to members of the League OF
American Wheelmen.
Captain Wetmore Of the Bay City
Wheelmep has received the sanction of
II. E. Raymond, chairman of the racing
board of the league, and the dispensation
conveys the impression that the plan Is
ntirely feasible and deserving of success.
The club has an excellent track in Cen
trail Park. Ii is of concrete, ons-fifth of a
mile in length. The track is q feet wide
with abrupt curves, 13 feet IN grade from
rim to RIM, so that the ordinary rider
always remains at right angles in making
a turn. The stretches are practically
level. having grade of only In q feet.
The park will be Illuminated by 30 arc
lights. and a system of reflectors will keep
the glare from the SPECTATORS seats. and
concentrate the rays on the scene Of the
cyclerS' contests.
Captain Wetmore says that the electric
light tournament will begin on Tuesday
evening, August q, with special perform
ances on thursday and Saturday even
lngs The nights In the latter part Of
August are usually free from fogs and
nigh winds, and it is expected mat no
conditions will then exist that will pre-
vent modicum of record-treaking.
There will be three or four events each
evening. and In each of these there will be
three or Tour heats. 50 that no tedious
delays will ensue. In the clubs runs OF
the season. high winds have retarded
record-breaklng. and the evenings of the
latter days OF August are regarded as con-
tanning the qualities essential TO new
figures on the fast time schedule.
Tie Alameda Bicycle and Athletic Club
will hold a meeting on the afternoon Of
the Goth prOx., and competitors in the Bay
City's night races may start with them
and incuce extra exhibitions at Central
Park.
The Bay City Wheelmen, fortv-five in
number, left yesterday morning on the
boat and train for San Rafael, from which
point a run was made to within four miles
of Petaluma, at which place they were
met by a delegation Of cyclers from the
Incubator City. After an enjoyable lunch
under the trees the riders proceeded to
town and remained few hours. The road
was dusty and trying and but few of the
number cared to retrace the twenty-five
miles of road to San Rafael. Many Of the
wheelmen returned to the city by train,
though few braved the sun and dust and
carried out the programme.
The coming tournament promises to be
not only novel but highly interesting, and
Secretary Tuepke is sending and receiving
many letters concerning the matter.

After the big event had been concluded.
there were lew private matches run on
Tor stakes amounting from ST TO $50.
These resulted as follows: Matte beat
Wee Lassie, Salvador beat Barney. Allan

String. Red Cloud beat D0nard.
The last-named course ended disas-
troasly. Donard had a long. and firing
course, and finally quit in the most un-
expected manner. allowing Red Cloud to
pursue tie hare alone. Shortly after the
course Donard lay down in serious heart
trouble, and although everything possible
was done for him he expired on the field.
The heat was intense, and no doubt this
was the cause of the unfortunate incident.
All went home in good spirits. John
Dugan was more than pleased with the
outcome OF the days sport, and as the
train came up TO convey the visitors back

Olympian tennis players are improving
their hours and also their playing in an

played on the 9th prox. Yesterday the
four courts of the club were occupied from
early morning until quite late in the after
noon, ami nearly all the devotees of the
racket took a turn at the popular pas
time.
Ia the morning the continuous tourna-
ment was called and Treat ana Wllber
played in the first half. Treat defeated
WILDER 90. GA, 60.
Lane and Larkin PLAYED the second
half, and Larkin won. e.. Ga. 6-3.
The first half WAS especially interesting,
being characterized by clever playing
throughout. A. j. Treat has developed
considerable skill, though he declines to
pose as a crack player. His opponent,
MI WILDER, is a cautious, cool player, and
called forth the full strength of his oppc-
nent's tactics.

They went at it about the same way as

drove out his tw0-bagger. but 1t differed
from the previous inning in that Levy had
singled and was praneing around first
base waiting for an opportunity to COM

did Carroll and so also did Work. who fol-
lowed Carroll with single and scored on
