upon the city's hospitality, and now
hey have arranged with the owners of
$50 hotels and boarding houses to care
for the tens of thousands which will
pour in by railroad, on steamboat and

The Louisville people intend to
astound the leaguers by entertaining
them in a different way from that at
tempted by any other city. Heretofore
the great features of the annual meets
were the parades of all the cyclists.

hotel. Here racing men can always
find accommodations. The track is
exactly four miles from the center of
Louisville, and may be reached by a
trolley car line or over two excellent
streets by bicycle.
The great beauty of this track is that
the man on the inside has very little ad-
vantage over the others. The stretches
are long and wide, and as the highest
speed is always made at these points
the riders have an even chance. On
the round tracks the man who has the
pole has an advantage all the time.

WATCHED HIS CHANCE.
"Pomp'' Determined to Make His Com
mission.

"Pomp' has gone into the undertake
ing business. For many years POmpey
has lent dignity to one of the promi-
nent clubs in the city, but his business
instincts were too strong for him to
keep on mixing drinks and manipulate
ing trays. So he is now ASSOCIATED
with a popular cOlored undertaken.
Before taking the step Pompey did
a little figuring.
Use gittin' long purity Oh he al
lowed, on Use liable to die mos any

takin' business I gets a funeral at cost
price. Dat means a big sabin' on a
funeral, n I can have a heap sweller
ore. I goes inter de undertaken bus
mess. Jes' yo' watch my trail
Still Pompey >as kept up his interest
in the club. He was a fixture there so
long that he could not be dropped out
suddenly. Oftentimes, as he returns
from some exceptionally pleasant fun
eral, he drops in at the club to dilate
upon it's beauties to his old comrades,
Tom and Russ" 1t was, therefore,
quite natural that he should pay Rus
sell friendly visit the other day, when
the latter was taken sick.
Hello, Russ" said Pompey, as he
entered the room where the invalid
lay. How yo' feelin' today?"
''Mizzabul, Pompo, mizzabul," said
the sick man. 81 feel purity sick"
"How's things at the club?" said the
businCss-like but tactful Pompey,
steering the talk to a safe subject.
Purity fair, Pomp; purity fair,
reckon" was the reply. II hain't been
there fur a week an more
The conversation went on in this
way for a short time. Pompey then
decided to launch out boldly ard head
for the desired port.

"Y-a-a-s," was the noncommittal re-
sronse.
