large supply of peaches-probably 80 or

poor. Martin Dayhoff, Pondsvllle, and John

even of the later varieties, will not be much
better as the season advances. So far all the

 This is an example of the necessities of an extreme case-a very apathetic and unobservant child. Usually it will be sufficient to exhibit objects by lifting them from the table and simultaneously telling their names. This must be done over and over again until the nerve fbers and brain cells are stimulated in- to readier action and developed into full CT and more perfect performances of nor nal functions.
 The imbecile child's brain is improved in the same way as the biceps muscles are more and moro enlarged. This is done by the repeated use of small dumb bells at first and then by the gradual substitution of heavier and heavier weights.

Nervous idiots are much more promising pupils and show remarkable mental improvement in a short time.

from Haywards, over the San Leandro
triangle, through Fruitvale and into East
Oakland. Some of the fastest men of the
coast-aye, even of the world-were pitted
against each other. There was Edwards,
who rode the fastest mile ever made on a
worlds championships at Denver last
year; Harbottle, all the way from
Canada, with a record of fast performances
remarkable for its length; Wells, as speedy
as he is big, well known by his rsany vic
tories; Foster, for years the local cham
pion, and still able to hold his own in any
company; Castleman of Los Angeles, an
other giant in size and racing ability, and
Reid, the crack rider of the California Club
Such an aggregation had never before
been brought together here.
1t was just Sc minutes and AZ seconds
past o'clock when Charles S. Wells came
dashing down the street on his Rambler
winning for the Bay City Wheelmen q
magnificent race in remarkable time, while
the crowd yelled itself hoarse and went
wild with excitement. AS he crossed the
from his wheel, and he was carried down
through the lines of spectators on the
shoulders of his club mates.
A minute later andsCasey Castleman, the
Acme rider, came in sight and was cheered
again and again as he crossed the mark.
The Garden Cltys came next, with Will
bur Edwards riding for them. He had
made a gallant effort, but was too far be-
hind at the start. His time was the best
of this relay, % :01.
Walter Foster brought the Olympic's
colors in fourth, and finally Reid came
along for the CALIFORNIA;, who had made a
game, but hopeless fight.
Then every one said, "Where's Ziegler
and Harbottle?" 1t was time they were
in. But courier soon arrived announc-
ing both had met with accidents and could
not finish. Ziegler, plucky lad, in trying
his best to overcome the lead of the others
had been reckless and had fallen. Har-
bottle, too, came to grief, near Fruitvale.
The Bay City Wheelmen had won a
popular victory, and the members were
congratulated on every hand. Much credit
is due Captain Dodge, Frank H. Walters
and Walter d. Sheldon, who had the en-
tire charge and selection of their relay
team. The elegant silver cup, the trophy
they have won, could not fall into better
hands.

: The second annual 100-mile relay race of
the California Associated Cycling Clubs
was run around the bay yesterday by the
wheelmen of Oakland, San Jose and San
Francisco and resulted in the cup being
won by the Bay City Wheelmen of this
city in the remarkable time of hours, Sc

utes, A seconds from the record made last
year. The race was holly contested
throughout and replete with accidents,
while the time made is wonderfully fast
and showed great speed and endurance on
the part of the riders.
1t is only in the past three years that the
wheelmen of this State have interested
themselves in interclub relay racing The
first move in this direction was made in
1898, when the Acme Club of Oakland and
the Bay City Wheelmen of this city con-
tested in a 100-mile relay race over about

terday. The Acmes won in hours 48 min.
81 % sec, beating the Bay Citys by over
ten minutes. This race attracted so much
attention that the California Associated
Cycling clubs of this city saw at once the
desirability of holding such an event an
nually under its auspices, and last year the
first attempt was made. The same seven
clubs that were entered yesterday put in
their best men, and the Garden City
:. Cyclers of San Jose won, in a close finish,
from the Acme and Bay City clubs, in
hours % min. q sec. The prize contested
for was an elegant silver cup, presented by
. Thomas H. B. Varney.
The cup must be won three times by one
club to become its property, and it now
changes hands and remains in the pos
session OF the Bay City Wheelmen until
next year, when they must again ride to
retain possession of 1t.
In relay races at the start each rider IS
provided with a leather packet, which be

next course and so on the entire distance;
These exchanges are made al full speed
within limit of 100 yards and are very
exciting when three or four clubs are
changing at top speed at one time and
