Interesting Notes About Fred. fins
and Fred. Schade.
There has been 90 much talk Of late
about w. Fred Sims. the speedy racer.
and his troubles with Chairman Gideon Of
the league racing board. that q picture
and sketch Of the young man are herewith
presented. Since living In the-city Sims
has done some good work. and there is
every indication that he can do even bet
ter. though it IL hardly likely that he will
be able to do this until he changes his
means Of livelihood Gr else awaits the
removal of Chairman Gideon from Office
He began his racing work in 1892, his
first appearance on the track being at the
first annual spring games of the Young
Mems Christian Association of which his
father was instructor in the gymnasium
which were held at the Y. NJ. c. A. Park,
then located at 18th and u streets. He
came In second in the mile handicap. The
first race he ever won was in the same
year. when he won the District champion
ship. The League OF American Wheel
men meet was held in the city at that
time. and the races were held on the track
at Analostan Island. His time for the
race was 2.3S the fastest mile ever ridden
on the island track. In 1893 he won q
number of races. but did not have much
time to race on account of his business.
he went to Swarthmore College in the fall
ana played foot ball. Under the college
colors he won eight or nine races at AS
bury Park and other places around the

Preparations for the diamond
Race Meet" Next Saturday.
HANDSOME TROPHIES GIVEN

The Arlington Whe4lmen Is one of the
few strictly bicycle clubs in the city. and
Its members enjoy an excellent reputation
both as riders of the silent steed and in
social way. 1t 10 one Of the Oldest cy-
cling clubs in the District, and as a racing
club has always enjoyed great popularity.
The club was organized in the summer of
1883, at the home Of w. T. Robertson. At
this meeting Mr.. Ballard N. Morris was
elected president and Mr.. Frank Libbey
captain. They held office for one year,
and In 1880 Mr.. Morris was reelected to
the presidency. and w. T. Robertson
chosen as captain. In the following year
Mr.. Robertson was elected to the presi-
dency and Mr.. e. c. Bowen selected to fill
the vacant captainship In 1891 and 1892
Mr.. Morris was president and Mr.. D. L.
Sandoe. captain.
The present president, Mr.. William Get
finger, was first elected to office in 1853,
and his popularity among the club men,
bers Is demonstrated by the fact that he
has been kept in the office ever since, de-
spite his wishes to retire and give some

FIRST LESSONS In THE STREETS.
Bicycle Dealers Hope to Break Up IN
Annoying Practice.


Annoying Practice.
A good many OF the bicycle dealers In the
city will shortly unite and begin a crusade
against the public streets being used as a
riding school. This step is regarded as
persons who are out evenings learning TO
ride the silent steed. In many streets II is
impossible to drive through with a carriage,
owing to the number Of beginners essaying
to ride. the driver of vehicle being unable
to determine Just what direction the novice
will take.
The crusade is aimed to break UP another
thriving business which is on hand. There
are good many enterprising negro in
structors who hire q wheel for evening,
and then use II for teaching others and in
this way earn livelihood. Very often the
machines are returned to the dealer in a
battered and damaged condition. These in
structions out the street interfere a
good deal with the attendance at the riding
schools of the various bicycle agencies IN
the city. and as the dealers have TO pay a
tax for the continuance of their business
they do not think they get fair show in
the matter. OF the large increase TO the
bicycle population OF the District during
the present year il is estimated that fully
one-haf learned out on the streets, and the
dealers feel that they are that much out OF
pocket.
The police will be asked to assist in break
ing up the street teaching, though just how
this will be done remains to be seen. 1t is
probable that test case will be made. and
an arrest made under the police regula-
tions. which provide that every rider shall
at all times have the wheel under control.
1t Is argued that in the case of beginner
the wheel is not under control. II this
charge is not sustained in the Police Court,
legal advice will be secured to break up
the practice, II possible.

Clapp was captain of the club, he being
succeeded the following year by Mr.. J.

Paris Brengle. was elected to the position

Must BE Fast Riders.
One of the features Of the clubs early
history was the requirement for member
ship. An applicant for membership was
compelled to make a mile in at least three
rinutes in order to be eligible. This made
the club a fast riding organization, and
accounted for the wonderful riding of Its
members in all local road races, which
were then all the rage among the cyclists.
the city having suitable track for racing
events.
The club has always defended its
winged AZ on every occasion in and about
the city. Its prizes are numerous, almost
every member holding some trophy of a
race meet. The most important trophy in
the possession Of the club Is the Overman
cup, won on July II. 1894, in the Arlington
Columbia road race, over the twenty-mile
course on the Conduit road. Prominent
en-. the Robertson brothers, Macrelle, Spear,
Mitchell. Burdette, ,Clapp, Hutchings and
Terry. The clubs reputation Is cared for
on the track at present by w. Fred Sims,
Billie Sims. T. n. Mudd. jr., Bayard T.
Wrenn, Walter Thompson and E. j. MUIR
ply.
Forty-Seven Enrolled.
The member ship Of the club at present Is
forty-seven active members. One enjoy
able feature of the club is that they never
have meeting without a banquet. This
course was adopted five years ago, and has
been successfully carried out ever since
The meeting night of the club is the first
Tuesday Of each month at the hostelry of
Col. T. r. Marshall. The organization Is
without a club house. and there is no de-
sire to have one. The monthly meeting of
the members over the festive board is
thought to be far more enjoyable than the
maintenance Of a club house. in which the
members are apt to take an interest at
first. but which Is certain and sure to di-
minish after the novelty Of the matter
wears off.
The annual dinners of the club are one of
the prominent events of the season. Dur
Ing the winter the club has been in the
habit of giving monthly dances, and the
popularity Of the organization is attested
by the large crowd of well-known people
who always attend these pleasant affairs.
Up to last year the club held the cham
pionship Of the road for the District, but
Just at present no Club holds the honor,

A Great Fad That Has Taken Hold Of
Resorters.
The Atlantic coast. more properly speak
ing the sea shore, is the home of the BIZ
cyclers 1t may be said that there has
been no apparent diminution of bicyclers In
the cities. but this cannot be so. when the
sea shore is lined with wheels. wheelmen
ana wheelwomen. Everybody takes his or
her wheel to the sea shore They ride in
the early morning, in the heat of the day
and In the evening there are bicycle parties
made UP. and wheel from one resort TO an
other. 1t is nothing to see bicycle party
start on for some resort ten or twelve miles
Up or down the coast to take in some hop
or other pleasure gathering.
The ladies' seem more fond of the wheel
al the sea shore than the men. The men
20 ior rest the women are there so long
tney like a change Of scene. The wheel
gives them an opportunity to get this
change or scene with very little effort. For
the most part the roads along the shore
are kept in good condition for the cyclers.
In fact. 1t does not do for any country to
be without good roads these days.
To Dry the Hair.
The bicycle furnishes the ladies an ex-
cellent opportunity for drying hair after
the bath. Nearly all the bicycle girls at the
sea shore-and all women who ride wheels
are bicycle girls-go in the water without
any hsad covering and take the surf as they
hnd 1t. and dive and plunge Just as If they
were not the least afraid OF wet hair They
come out OF the water, don their bicycle
costumes, and, bare-headed ride up and
down the roads, their hair streaming out in
the breeze and being dried as fast as sun
ana wind can accomplish the desired re-

say in the Bowery song.
Costumes.
Many OF the bicycle girls scarcely ever
wear any other costume than the bicycle
and the bathing costumes Both Of these
dresses furnish the free and easy move
ments of the limbs so much cherished
by women. There are any number of them
that look very nice in their bicycle cos

Skirts for bicycling at the sea shore do not
require as much material as they do In the
cities. The most attractive feature of the
sea shore this summer is the bicyclers.
