Yesterday morning at o'clock, Ave
Wheeling Cyclera had gathered at the
ISrrLLldEScER office for the start Of
Sunday run" that was also something
more than a mere ''Fun," 1t will DO
remembered that last fall Lestor Dillon
started at tho Sams spot to create
record for the round trip between
Wheeling and Pittsburgh, via the ma
tisnal pike, Washington aud Cannons.
bursi the tImo made was h;ll, aud
ever since there has been considerable
talk about the ability OF certain riders
10 break that record. II wa, for this
purpose that the quintetto Of cyclerS
mentioned had gathered at the INTELLl.
ogycER corner which has como to DO
the starting and finishing point Of all
the local wheel road contests.
Two Of the riders were Harry W,
Himmins, Of Elm Grove, and Albert
Marks, OF the Island, the principals OF
the effort to break the Dillon record,
and the others wero the PAGERS. one OF
them, viii Lash, eventually figuring as
one OF the principals, TWAS the lnten-
lion that thu start should take place at
o'clock, but q delay occurred, 50 that
il vas Just 4:t0 when the i've aprintod
up the Fourteenth street hill. Between
Wheeling and Warrington the rain had
put the road In excellent condition, but
the early morning fog was an obstacle,
40 that the time made between the two
points was very good, Klmmins aud
Marks being checked at the Hotel Main,
10 Washington, at 7;l7 a M, three
hours and seven minutes after tho start.
Just before entering Washington, the
Wheeling party were mot by local
wheelman who gave them this clipping
from Warrington paper:
STEPS are being taken by tho Law and Order
Society TO have the bicycle racers from wheeling
arrested on thelf passing through lhla place TO
MORROW, iOr violation OF tho Sunday law
This was very much OF surprise, as
the boys were not racing, but were
merely out on Sunday run, making al
effort against old Father Time. Finally
they rode slowly into tue town, took
breakfast and were nos given taste OF
the famous PeunSylvanla "Blue laws"
Three miles out OF Warrington, Kim.
