This is bounding SockaleXis,
Fielder OF the mighty Cleve.ands.
Like the catapult in action,
For the plate he throws the base ball
Till the rooters, bithely roofing,
Shout until they shake the bleachers
"SockaleXis, Sockalexis,
Sock it to them, Sockalexis"
Like the bison on the praires,
Plunging from the ames up-leaping,
Snorting at the crimson billoWs
That his hinder members frlzzle,
Till the condor notes the oder,
And his wings fi&p in the prescience
OF rich and luscious banquet
So spry Sockalexis capers,
Leaving far behind the whirlwind,
When he starts upon home run.
All the crowd cries: "Sockalexis,
Sockalexis, Socka,exis!'
When he circles like the eagle
Round the bases, or serenely
Slides upon his solferino
Pie AID doughnut-padded stomach,
Wipins all the glaring war paint
OF his nasal in a jiffy.
Such is merry Sockalcxis
Who can bat ana knock the home run,
Who can scalp the blooming umpire
Till the rooters In their glory
Knowing no fit terms of praise, al
Lift their voices: "SockaleNis,
SockaleXis, SockaleXis!
Till the wellins madly splitting,
And the purple cave of echo
Sends back all the surging chorus:

Sock II to them Sockalexisw

and interesting close. Harvard played
loosely in the field, while Pennsyl-
vania's agile fielding was in sharp con-
trast. At the end of the mornings
play, Pennsylvania was still at the
bat, with only six wickets fallen, and
with rs runs to the credit. When they
were finally retired they had rolled up
total of 10S runs. The fine batting

BALL PLAYERS AND BIKES.
The Use Ofthe Wheel Cripples Their
Basc-Running Powers.

Manager GrifTln's idea that wheeling
is injurious to ball players during their
regular practice or when the cham
pionship season is on is shared by ball
players in general
THE wheel is good enough at the
right time, but l wouldn't think Of
riding after I began active practice" ="
remarked Mcguire a few days ago.
Why" i rode ten or twelve miles
early in the spring, and after l had
finished my lefts felt sort of puckered
up and ! felt like sitting down. If a
player wants to kill his speed as a
base runner let him stick to the
wheel"

FOR WOMEN CYCLISTS.


Mrs. ], A. Lacher, OF Maysboro, Mimi,
in dhe eyes of good many women, is both
heroine and martyr. The village in
winch she lives is rather limited in size.
The bicycle population Of the place is linn
tied TO three-Mrs. Lacher her husband
and her SON. As a result the other people
In the village regard the Lachers as in
digging in luxury bordering on eXtrava-
ganca. Mrs. Lacher was recently seen rid
ing through the village wearing bloomers,
which created considerable excitement.
Several wlrdens Of the church saw her and
were shocked. The morals of the place had
been corrupted i'm their opinion. and they
quickly got together and held a meeting
After much secret discussion, by ana with
the advice Of the pastor, they annulled the
church membership of Mrs. Lacher. The
matter was announced from the pulpit
and created an even greater sensation
than did the victim In question when she
appeared on the highways In the rational
costume, Mrs. Lacher is the wife OF a
prominent citizen of the place, and the
mother OF seven children. Her husband, IT
Is understood, will not let the matter rest
as II IS.

ordinary skirt. There have been costumes
worn by some female riders which may
have caused the machine to turn vivid
color under its enamel. but few of this
character have been shown In this city.
Among the striking combinations recent
ly seen at st. Louis was that of a young
girl whose hair and bicycle were a decid-
ed vermillin. Dressed in a suug-htting suit
of black, trimmed in red of the same shade
as her wheel and hair she attracted no
end Of attention. Nevertheless, the effect
was good. and her manner of riding much
better than the ordinary.
There are few OF the wheelwomen OF
this city who are riding in bloomers, but
they are so full and are such near rela-
tions to the divided skirt that very few
can tell the difference. The popular color
of the wheeling costume appears to be
light graw or fawn color, or one of those
fetching mixtures which become any wo-
man and which do not show the dustc.
When out on the road the costume Of the
male rider is liable to get covered with
dust Under the same circumstances the
costume of the female would present sad
sight There are perhaps very few women
who have considered this matter, but 1t
Is well worth some attention.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1897-05-15

The question of dress creates additional
interest with the wheelwomen is the army
of riders of the fair sex becomes larger.
There was a time when the female riders
rode in their street costume. Some, of
course, still adhere to this, but the great
majority of riders have their bicycle dress,
and it is, indeed, complicated arrange
ment. Bloomers has practically gone out,
or, more properly speaking, have with
drawn from sight as they are now worl
under the skirt as a general rule. Perhaps
the most popular costume of today is the
blouse or loose waist, knick kerbockers or
bloomers, leggings and a bicycle skirt,
which is made somewhat shorter than the

There is a general opinion among per-
sons on, as we.l as off, the wheel that rid
ing will contract the chest, unless the
wheelwomen sit bolt upright. This may
be so inasmuch as a girl who sits in a
chair in round-shouldered position will
probably not abandon her favorite atti-
tude because she is riding a bicycle. How
ever, there is no necessity for sitting bolt
upright, for slight bending forward from
the hips, with the back fiat and the shoul-
dors well back gives better position on
the wheel, while there is no danger of con-
tracing the chest.

The English have all along praised tho
riding abilities of their females, claiming
that they were able to withstand a great
deal of riding. The last report of the Cen
tury Road Club of America has stunned
them. Standing eighth on the list Is the
name of Mrs. A. Il. Rhinehart of Denver,
Col, who has ridden 11S centuries. The
English cycling press looks at this aghast,
and, though, not openly, intimates that
some mistake has been made. No English
woman has ever been known to ride that
distance in England. While the riding Of
Mrs. Rhinehart is mertorious there are
a number of other women who have done
good riding. Airs. George Bunker, of
Chicago, has ridden ninety centuries, and
Mrs. }. w. Roth, of the same city, has
ridden fifty-siX centuries. Mrs. NJ. ].
Kelley, of New York, has covered fifty
centuries, while Mrs. c. NJ. Fairchild, Of
Chicago, has covered fifty-one centuries.
Miss Lizzie Hegerty, of Bloomington, ILL.,,
is the only unmarried lady mentioned on
the list, and she has ridden thirty-five
centuries. All of these are members OF
the Century Road club.

A New York bicycle club captain, who
is on pleasure visit to Paris, has writ
ten home to some of his friends giving the
news of interest to the cycling fraternity
He states that all of the women wear
bloomers, and the people take such a sight
in the ordinary everyday sense. In fact,
woman who appeared in the streets in
skirt costume, such as worn in this city,
would attract as much attention as the
woman in this city who dares to go out
on the thoroughfares with a full set of
boomers.

that fair woman, being a lover OF Jewels,
Is naturally infatuated with the diamond
frame bicycle. As II is impossible for her
to ride in skirts a bicycle of that design,
she has turned her attention to the ration
al costume. Bloomers and knickerbockers
therefore, are not the outcome of pro-
gressive ideas, bJr the necessity born of
admiration of precious gems. This is one
view of the matter.
This is the season for beginning in cy-
cling, and here are some good suggestions
from an Instructor who is regarded as one
OF the best in the city of New York: ].
Grasp the handle bars lightly. and do not
stiffen the muscles OF the arms or shoul-
ders. g Turn the wheel gently in the di-
rection in which you feel you are falling;
never Jerk II, and never turn It in the op-
posite direction, 3. DO not be afraid to
bear down on the pedals; the faster you go
the more easily you will find 1t to control
your wheel. I. Always hook ahead, or
rather toward the point to which you wish
to go; II you look down you are almost
sure to get ratified" and If you fix ter.
ror-tricken gaze on any object you wish to
avoid you are almost sure to run it down.
out in Milwaukee bicycle parties are the
latest fads of society, the fad coming into
vogue as early as March, when the wind
was blowing hard enough to make the
male riders turn up their coat collars to
keep warm. Scores of young women could
be seen riding through the frozen streets
of the city. The run generally ended at
some place where refreshments could be
served, after which the entire party would
listen to some lecture on cycling, the cor
rect manner OF mounting and dsmount-
ing, the position in the saddle and similar
points, or else talk of the formation of a
summer cycling club, or perhaps indulge
in general all-around gossiping match.
