have wheels for hire, and in this line they
some times suffer. In this connection it
might be well to note the reductions which
have been made in the matter of wheel
hire. Some years ago Il cost from % cents
TO 81 for the first hour, and from 80 to 75
cents for every hour following, when a
person wanted to hire a wheel This was
rather an expensive luxury, but the prices
OF bicycles were then high. The bicycle
business was then bonanza business. Last
year the price dropped to 80 cents for the
nrst hour and % cents for each additional
hour. For a whole day $3.50 was charged
for the use Of the machine. Last season
the price was cut by some to p cents for
the first hour and 10 cents for each addi-
ticnai hour or fraction thereof. This year
number of dealers are renting wheels at
10 cents an hour. and some have even come
as low as 10 cents hour, or 10 cents a
wheel for a day.
The dealers complain that the public
abuse their nired wheels. This may be so,
but some dealars have such heavy end
clumsy wheels for hire that it Is almost
next to impossible to injure them unless an
ak Is used. In the rernacular of the rae
ing men the wheels are Ice wagons"
Soma dealers have found that it does not
pay TO have light machines for hire. they
provo profitable. Generally it happens that
the dealer compels the person who hires the
wheel to pay for all damage. The only In
stance where he loses is when the rider
leaves the wheel on the street and skips.
The police pick it up and return It to the
dSaler. This is the only chance the dealer
has TO lose. and a good many persons take
advantage of it. 1t is seldom that a hired
wheel Is stolen. for obvious reasons.

LOCAL RAClN G CHAT

Now that the racing season has started it
is perhaps Interesting to many to know just
how the riders stand so far as their win
nings are concerned. Last year The Star
published a table at the close of the sea-
son giving the standing of all of the local
riders in local meets for the season, count
ing novice events. The same plan will be
carried out this year, only the standing of
the men will be published more frequently
In the table four points were given to the
winner of a race; two points for the second
man: and one point for the third man. No
position beyond third is counted. Match
races are also left out. Only open events
are included. Novice races are counted for
the benefit of the younger riders. So far
this season only two race meets have been
run off, and though Schade only succeeded
in winning two. yet he is at the head. with
Wilson close second. Had the pursuit
race of Wilson's, when he defeated r. l..
French of Baltimore, been counted in the
table, he would have been at the head.
The standing of the riders up to date is as
follows:

CENTRALs THE CHAMPIONS.
Deciding Game In the InterschO Ola site
Ease Ball Series.

The Central High School base ball team
won the championship of the Inter-Hgh
School League by defeating the Western
team at National Park yesterday by Il to
D. Notwithstanding the fact that all the
games in this series have been excellent
exhibitions of the national game. yester-
days contest ranked them all in the matter
of steady play, good batting, brilliant field
ing and lack of amateurishness. There
were several very pretty plays on fielding
hard balls. good hitting just when hits
were needed and noticeable lack of er-
rorS.
The game, as a whole, was interesting,
each team getting three runs in the first
inning. The Centrals then made four in
the second while the Westerns made three
i'm the third. Five more runs. however in
three innings put the Centrals ahead, and
after that the Western boys could not do
much with Durdin's delivery. One of the
features of the game was the hitting of
Fernow of the Westerns and Devlin of the
Centrals. Each made three hits, the for
mer getting home run and the latter
drawing a triple among the number. The
