HE WILL GO HIGHER
Ross Miller VIII Enter the Other Big
Races.


The championship won by Mr.. Ross
E. Miller Of st. Louis, on April Is, will
be Of great advantage both to him and
to his manager and trainer, Mr.. E. S.
Campbell, for his performance in this
race proves him to be one of the best
road riders in the United States, and
classe him as second to none.
Mr. Miller will enter the famous Chi
cago and Forrest Park, st. Louis road
races and will ride on the Morgan &
Wright team during the coming sea-
son. He will attempt to shatter all the
national records from five miles TO
twenty-four hours run, and as he is in
his prime and is riding in better form
than ever before in his life, some of
these records will probably fall.
During the season of '95 Mr.. Miller
made one attempt at breaking the ma
tional hundred mile record but failed
60 do so from the reason that he was
not properly clad for the cold wind
which arose during his race against
time, but he is confident Of being more
successful this season and will be found
in the record breaking camp either at
Louisville or Denver in August.
His present manager and trainer Mr..
Campbell. will probably travel with him
during the coming season and he is
confident that Mr.. Miller will do some
good work and hopes that he will sue
coed III bringing down many OF the
long distance records.
