Oakland. The entries for the Acme event

is the last of series for handsome cup,

The management of the Hotel Rafael,
in conjunction with the San Rafael Cycling
Club and that charming writer on cycle
topics, 'Madge," are arranging some BIZ
cycle races to be held at San Rafael
shortly. There will be two-mile and
a ive-mile handicap, amateur. The idea
is to makeothe affair a sort of picnic with
the races and a splendid lunch as the
drawing cards. All the prominent clubs
of this City will be invited. The handi-
capping will be done by R. A. Smyth, Of
fetal Handicapped of the L. A. ". 1t

William Yeoman of the Reliance Club
Wheelmen, Oakland, is considerably an
twenty-mile roadrace, claiming that the
alleged foul was as much the fault of the
Bay City rider, Menne, as it was his.
Nothing similar to this has ever been at
tributed to Yeoman before and he has
always borne the reputation of being
square, honest rider. Menne still sticks
to his story that he was fouled, but is now
inclined to qualify it with the additional
remark that perhaps it was done accident
ally or without malice intent by Yeoman,
who, he thinks, would not wilfully foul
any one. As both men are well known on
the cycle path as honest sportsmen and
the veracity of neither can for a moment
be questioned, the collision and subse-
quent wrangIe over it were unfortunate,
and it seems to me the best thing to be
done is to drop the subject.
Captain Argent has called run of the
Camera Club Cyclists to San Jose for to-
morrow on the Oakland side of the BAY.
