Zimmerman is ChamDion

The Chicago bicycle races wound
up on Saturday in a blaze OF glory
for Zimmerman, who now holds the
well deserved title of champion of
the world. He has proved his SUI
periority as king of bicvclists. The
injury TO Walter G. Sanger early in
the week robbed the meet of sue
cess which was due it, and decreas
ed the attendance considerably.
Eleven thousand persons saw Sat-
urday's races. The principal events
were the one mile and sixty mile in
ternational races. In the former
the starters were Arthur A. thinner
man, John s. johnson, Julian p.
Bliss, Hoyland Smith, E. G. Bode,
T. T. Kinsely and w. Hyslop, Jr. A
time limit of 2 40 was placed on the
race. Kinsely, OF Chicago, set the
pace, and was allowed to get a lead
sixty yards. Johnson and thinner
man kept together. In the last
third both men sprinted. Zimmer-
man showed his excellent speed
qualities ana won handily. johnson
was second J. p. Bliss, of Chicago,
was third, and E. G. Bode, of Chica-
go, fourth. The time was 2.27 2-5.
Zimmerman also won the qua ter
mile open, beating George Taylor,
who was second. The time was 81
2-5 seconds
The two third mile open, was won
by Harry Taylor, of Springfield;
Geo. Taylor, second, and A. r. Lums-
den, third. Time 1.54 2-5.
The sixty mile international race
was devoid of any particular interest.
The starters were l.. j. Mentjes,
South Africa; w. Hyslop, j., Cana
da; F. Walter, J. W. Linneman, w.
F@H, E. Ulbrecht, c. Baker, j. b.
Clark, and M. Dirnberger.
Linneman was regarded as a pos
sible winner in the view of his isrecent
performances but he quit after rid
ing twelve miles. At thirty seven
miles there were only two riders,
Mentjes and Ulbrecht. The South
African won easily. Time 2 hours,
46 minutes and 10 is seconds. New
American records were created from
eight to sixty miles.
During the six days meet thinner
man won IA first prizes. He was
beaten in the five mile National race
byJohnson, and came in fourth in
another event by reason of big hand
leaps.
On Monday, at Milwaukee, zim-
norman won the half mile open race
and the one mile international.
In the races at Milwaukee thinner
man won the half mile open, the one
mile open aud the one mile Internal
ional tThe prize for the latter was
Il valuable diamond.

also present.
Lawyer William Pintard, of Red
Bank, appeared and asked that q bill
Of $500 be allowed Lena Haubner of
Oceanic for injuries received at Sea-
bright drawbridge last year. Miss
Haubner was riding across the bridge
when the tender pushed the bar be-
tween the horse and carriage in
which she was riding, The bar
struck Miss Haubner in the side, in
juring her internally. SiEce t.iat
time she has been ill and is i'll at ,,res-
ent. Mr.. Pintard said that already
it had cost Miss Haubner nearly $500
tor medical attendance, etc, and he
asked that the board pass a billallow
ing her $500. The matter had been
before the board before and at that
time a special committee reported
adversely on the payment of any
money. The action at that time was
reconsidered, and FreeholderS Snyder
moved the payment of the sum of
$500. The motion was seconded and
the vote called for. All were present
and fourteen voted against the pay
ment of any money and two in
favor
The bills were then taken up and
until 1890 O'Clock the board voted to
pay out money. At 1890 the Board
adjourned for dinner which was had
at Morrow, Day 81 Co.'s in Ocean
Grove, The Board were we'll dined
and speak high of their treatment
here. They returned at 2.30 for busi
ness. Bills were again taken up and
at 3 o'clock everything being finished
adjournment was taken. There were
exactly one hundred bills passed.
Most of the money was voted out in
small sums for bridge repairs. Bills
for court expenses, coroner's fees,
etc, were also ordered paid. Sheriff
Smock presented his bill for the
month of July. The amount was
$645. One bill of $23.02 was turnkey
fees of prisoners. This bill the law
allows the payment Of but Sheriff
Smock is the first official who has
ever presented such u bill. Shore
