Assistance of Outside PAGERS.

Arrangements have been made to receive
assistance from outside riders all along the
ride, and this will prove of much value to
the relay riders. With good pacing fast
time ought to be made. at the same time
the correct road maintained. All these ar
engagements are conducive to good time for
the relay ride. Local wheelmen will do the
pacing as far out as Columbia, when they
will be relieved by Baltimore cyclists who
will carry the relay men as far as Belair.
From this point the Belair wheelmen will
assume charge, and do the pacing from
their town to Havre de Grace. Near this
town riders of the Wilmington Ri. Club
will make their appearance and carry the
military boys to point near Philadelphia.
This will be the longest distance of pacing
performed by any one club during the ride
The Keystone Wheelmen Of Philadelphia
will take up the riders just outside of their
city and race them to Bristol, N. j., where
Gabriel Schiesser jr., of that place, with a
number of friends, will turn in and assist

The Boston Athletic Association played
Harvard to a standstill at Cambridge yes
terday afternoon, neither side scoring in
twenty-five minutes of play. Disputes mar
red the game, which had to be called on ac-
count of darkness. In the second half the

tices in order to have the game called. Har-
ward finally got the ball at the forty-yard
line and Cabot circled the right end for
twenty-five yards, bringing the ball within
fifteen yards of the goal line. The Bostons
here held Harvard for four downs, getting
the ball just as time was called.

The go niie Rend Race.

The talk Of the cyclists In this vicinity,
the Pyle twenty-mile road race, was run
on over the Kennett turnpike on Saturday
afternoon. Luther Thompson, with q han

In 1.o2.34. Charles A. Church, the fast

William Kirk made an ideal clerk Of
course and Frank Turner acted as starter.
They had their men all lined up ready to
start on time and did all they could to
keep the finish clear. Long before the
time to start the road was lined with thou
sands of spectators. Many women were
among the throng. The surrounding fields
were well filled with carriages. A feature
OF the afternoon was the many pretty cos
tunes worn by women cyclists, who were
out In great numbers. No bloomers were
seen, but the short skirt and the divided
skirt were much in evidence.
So great was the crowd that the men
had hard time in starting, as the spec
tators pushed out into the road anxious to
see the men OF. Most Of the farmers who
were going home over the road gavo the
scorchers the right of way, while others
pulled to the side of the road until the race
was over.
Some of the farmers insisted upon going

racers were due and there was some trou-

Il is believed that Fitzsimmons will be

state, and placed under a heavy peace

Informed for several days that an effort
will be made to pull of the fight in
private, which fact will compel him to be
absent on Arkansas day at the Atlanta
exposition.
Constable Allen p. Davis, of Hot
Springs, was in this city yesterday, and
gave out information which leads those
who talked to him TO believe that Cor
bett and Fftzsimmons will fight in private
mot far from Hot Springs, one day about
the latter part of this week.
Friday morning Corbett was supplied
with newspapers containing intimations
to the effect that he was about to quit the
state 30 avoid q meeting with the lanky
New zealander. After perusing the papers
II Is related that he fractured the adjacent
ozone with ponderous swipes and vowed
that he would stay In Garland county and
make mince meat, metaphorically speak
fng, out Of Julian's man. He at once
pitched into the work Of training.
The prevailing opinion In Hot Springs
sporting circles is that the fight will cor
tainly occur at some point In or near Gar
land county. Suoh an air of mystery sur
rounds tho whole proceedings that 1t is
very hard TO got any thoroughly reliable
Information on the subject, but that prep
Arations are being made in quiet way for
fight no one doubts. Many Hot Springs
people believe that the fight will occur at
Whittington Park, the place originally
selected, and that the battle will occur on
the date originally agreed. They argue
that the decision Of the supreme court af-
Hrming the prize fight law leaves the mat
bsr exactly where 1t was before Corbett
was arrested.
The fact that the Hot Springs Athletic
club have engaged circus tent seems to
Indicate however, that some private spot
has been selected. A close friend Of Gov
ernor Clarke has been shown letters from
Hot Springs which tend 30 confirm the be-
lief that fight will occur. One Of these
eetters is said to have come from Attorney
Martin and stated that preparations were
being made for q private fight Governor
Clarke, in speaking of this information, Is

how much they fought so long as 1t was
