BATRACHIAN FREAK.
A California Frog With Five Legs
and Intelligence.

The famous Calaveras county frog has
found a legitimate successor. This one
also lives In California. making his home
near Colma. His claim TO fame lies In the
fact that he has five legs, and is credited
with the ability TO understand the English
language. This is, more correctly speak
ing. his principal claim to fame; he is also
remarkable for his toes. He has nineteen
of these. three on each hind foot. four on
each OF two other feet. and five on the
foot belonging 10 the extra leg. This leg
Joins his body somewhat forward of the
normal front leg. and Is supplied with
regular bones and joints. The connection
with the body Is apparently perfect. In
other respects the frog is like any other
frog.
His style of travelling. however. is pecu-
liar. With three legs on the left side and
but two on the other, his course contin-

have passed during the last week.
Gray, the colored rider, was taken in
charge by the members of the Waldorf
club at the clubs headquarters.
With the exception of Rice, Enter
man, Miller and Schinneer, none Of the
men seemed to have suffered any men,
tai effect from their long ride. All of
the men named had to be given mar
cotics to quiet them. Physically all Of
the riders were in as good condition as
could be expected.
AS a reward for his week of pain and
torture in covering hundreds of miles
awheel, Miller will get $1,000, aside
from presents from wheel and tire
companies; $1,000 of this is the win
ner's share of the purse and 5000 more
goes for breaking the record. Joe
Rice's share of the purse will be $500,
and Schinneer will get $500; Teddy
Hale will receive $3.50 and Waller $50
less. Pierce gets 5000, Golden $3.50,
Cannon $125. Enterman and Rivierre
$100 each and Elkes SIS. All the riders
who covered more than 1850 miles will
receive a prize, probably $50 apiece
Rivierre, the French bicyclists, who
was ordered out Of the big race last
night by the police, was much improv-
ed tonight at the Hotel Martin. His
trainer even insisted that Rivierre had
at no time been in the condition stated
by the police and reported in the news

immense mob tonight after the race,
curious to catch a glimpse Of the rid
ers. AS soon as the riders could be
gotten into the street, clothed and
we'll bundled up they were hustled into
carriages and driven to hotels. = So
dense was the crowd that the aid of
the police had to be called in order to
get the half fainting riders from the
entrance to the curb. Schinneer, Cold
en-, Elkes, Rice, Pierce, Enterman and
KIM were hustled across the street to
the Putnam house. No time was lost
in getting the men up to the rooms
reserved for them, and as soon as pos
sible they were tucked into bed. In
less time than it takes to tell it most
Of the men were in the land of dreams.
Teddy Hale and Miller were driven
to the Hotel Bartholdi, where they will
put in the greater part of the next
thirty-six hours in sleep. Waller, Gan
non, Julius, Beacon and Johnson were
taken to their homes to dream of the

quickly followed his example.
FINAL STRUGGLE.
The melancholy spectacle which had
been going on throughout the entire
day was frightened up to a great de-
gree tonight by the presence Of the
multitude and by the fresh ami gay
colors with which the weary riders
had adorned themselves Toward the
end the band struck Up IT'S iiveliest
airs, and the leaders, who had retired
for a last rundown, returned to the
oval, and, mounting their wheels for
the last time, started off with a re-
newed energy which brought forth q
tumult Of applause.
Although it could hardly be termed
race, yet there was much excitement
furnished by the remarkable sp hitting
Of the long distance men Notwith-
standing the terrific strain under which
they had been pedalling, for almost
six days they showed wonderful speed
and even daring skill in going so swift
ly round the corners in their present
debilitated state. Then the announc-
ers pistol indicated that the last lap

vast audience rose to it's feet and

with Schinneer, Rice and Hale and
Waller following with the others In a
bunch.
Anna Held, who had been waiting in
q box opposite the official stand, step
ped out on the track and bestowed
a gorgeous wreath of violets and roses
on the victor. Miller then remounted
his wheel, and. holding the wreath
aloft dashed around the track twice.
When he dismOunted he graspei the
hand extended by Hale, whom he had
shorn Of his glory, and made q little
speech. Hale escorted Miller around
the track. and. as the new and old
champions moved along, the crowd
shrieked themselves hoarse. There were
cries for Rice, and the sturdy miner
accompanied by his trainer, followed
the others. To show his marvellous
staying powers, Miller again got
astride his wheel, and, following q pace
machine, rode two miles in little over
five minutes and then showed few
signs Of the fatigue he must have suf-
fered.
Then the others filed along the track
and were finally gathered together and
bundled off to the various hotels to
sleep.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1897-12-12
p. m. there was not a seat left in the


big Madison Square Garden.
But with dusk things began to look
serious in the neighborhood Of the gar
den. Suddenly Inspector Brooks put in
an appearance at the head of a Gordon
of 250 police. The garden was COM
pletely girded by bluecoats and they
stretched across Madison avenue in an
unbroken line. The arena was packed
with humanity; not a soul was to be
held. Bluecoats blossomed out every
where. They surrounded the track;
they acted as ushers in every aisle.
1t was a splendid sight-for all but
the poor riders who have struggled for
a week for fame and dollars. And
round and round they doggedly ped
allied, while the crowd tried to urge
them forward. Slowly the clock
crawled around. YEARLY poor Miller
led the van. Behind him tailed Rice
and Schinneer, riding desperately at
ten miles an hour while earlier in the
week twenty miles an hour had been
easier.
But it was great race. Four men,
Miller, Rice, Schinneer and Hale, had
beaten Hale's record of 1901 miles.
Hale equalled his own record at S.h7.
He got floral horseshoe in honor of 1t.
AFTER THE RACE.
The Fourth avenue end of Madison
Square garden was surrounded by All
