THAT ROAD RACE.
What a Leading Cyclist
Thinks of 1t.
Christ Nav Have Broken Record,
but the Timers Had Much to Do
With His Success.

In reference to last Sundays ten-mile road
race wheeman and prominent member OF
the Olympic Club said last evening:
IL think that IL there was more attention paid
to the manage ment of affairs In general there
would not be any opening left for dispute re-
gardlng the times and records announced
''The timers were Captain Butler and Ravelin
Of the Garden City cyclists; l.. Hunter OF the
Olympic Club and Mr.. Hancock who is chair
man of the road-racing committee, and L must
confess that of the number there was but one
man who was possessed Of a split-second watch,
namely, Mr.. Hunter. All OF the other timers
had ordinary second watches. consequently
their times cannot very well be accepted as be-
Ing accurate.
About four minutes before the fist man home
had passed the finish line Mr.. Hancock. who
was one OF the timers, rode IN from the starting
point and was so completely exhausted that he
had TO be carried 10 the nearest hotel. The
timer evidently calculated wrongly and started

that he rode a wonderful race and Is entitled
to unstnted praise. Possibly be may have
done better time than he has been allowed.
however that may be, there Is one thlng GER

cycllst, is allowed a record, the timing must De

thlng In connection with the race that puzzles
me somewhat, and it IS this: Long, VINO

"Of course there is science in it," con-
tinued the miltiamaD. rehectively. "As
far as | can make out the science seems to
be to knock off the other mans head. The

the man who gets hit who yells out but the
man who gives the blow. Nine-tenths of
the yelling is done by the spectators.
There does not seem to be any umpire.
The whole crowd expresses its opinion of
whether blow is fair or not. Ii man
gets knocked out there is not much sympa-
thy shown for him. The crowd seems to
rejoice most in the CORY part. The two
combatants just jump around like couple

full. They were very courteous to US when
