FOREIGN CYCLE NOTES

The physicians to the poor in Paris are
the only class of cyclists who are exempt
from paying the annual cycle tax of 81 per
year. which is required of all riders in the
country.
The introduction Of the American bicycle
into Nicaragua is said to be responsible for
good roads movement which has been
started in that portion of Central America.
The republic has no roads worthy of the
name. and the riding afforded in the cities
is none of the best.
According to cycle paper there are only
10000 cyclists in st. Petersburg with four
race tracks. The smallness of the number
need not be wondered at when the extreme
latitude Of the city is taken into consdera-
ton.
Two racers who abused the decision of
the judges of race meet at Hyers were
arrested and promptly committed to Jail for
their insulting conduct.
Platts-Betts, the English crack. who has
bean touring Australia, is expected to
shortly return to England and enter the
coming outdoor races.
A new woman's club has been formed at
Berlin 1t Is called the Deminnie Cycling
Club. Its members belong to society, and
the objects are to encourage the cycle spirit
and get up excursions. The club is also
said to contemplate holding races.

ANOTHER STRIKE ON
Local Ball Players Holding Off for
More Money.
WAGNER DISINCLINED TO YIELD
Minor Leaguers Should First Show
Their Merit.
n OTES OF TIL E PLAYERS

The refusal Of Jack Doyle. Snyder, Din
peen end Wagner to sign contracts with
the Washington Base Ball Club is about
the only thing that mars the complete en-
thusiasm of the local fan There is
nothing new to cite in the case of Jack
Doyle. He has refused to sign a contract
sent him by Mr.. Wagner, but gives the
only reason for not doing so his decision to
quit the national game for the coming sea-
son at least. The figures offered Jack were
the same he received in Baltimore. and it is
understood that his salary does not stand
in the way Of his signing. The only way
the case can be sized up is from the friends
of the recalcitrant player. All those that
have been interviewed express the opinion
that Jack will play with the Washington
club when he is convinced that Mr.. Wagner
meant what he said when he made the
statement that Doyle would play in this
city or nowhere, and when all possible adj
vertisement has been made out of the case.
Doyle likes to see his name in the papers
and believes in the value of printers ink as
much as an actor or a man in business.
He claims that it Increases players value
and he is probably right. what the local
fans desire Is for Jack Doyle to come
down off of his high perch and indulge In
half an hours talk with Earl Wagner.
Doyle has evidently been instructed to
keep away from Mr.. Wagner as the ad-
Visers of the former know too well that
should Jack run across the Washington
magEate their hopes would go up in smoke
before the hand denoting the hour on the
clock would make one complete circuit
This business of tampering with player
is a serious matter, and it would be a good
thing for base ball could the aggrieyed
magnato secure positive evidence against
the Chicago president and manager.

PARTY. The first named tandem team met
with several mishaps a puncture and a
broken chain necessitating the abandon
ment of the machine at Sligo, Md, and the
taking of an electric car for the city. The
riders before taking the electric car were
forced to walk from Burnt Mills to Sligo.
Entwise will be one of the star road
riders this season, and Captain Norris is
arranging a series of runs, in which he can
display his speed ability.
One of the fast pro men of town, while at
the headquarters of the Levants recently,
in speaking of his ability to ride some-
thing like circles around the fastest mem
bers of the club. fell into match race with
one of the members up Capitol Hill. The
race came off. The club man sprinted up
the steep hill from the very beginning, and
the pro rider was not at any time in the
race. He not only lost the race, but he
also lost something more substantial. 1t is
rot regarded as necessary to mention
names.
The club will take a run Sunday to Sur
rattsvflle. Nd. as the guests Of the Cen
tury Cycle Club. The start will be made
from the club house at 10 o'clock sharp.

L. A. w. GOSSIP.

1t should be noticeable that in granting
the dates for the circuit races to this city
Chairman Mott Of the racing board has
named as the holders of the sanction the
District of Columbia division of the league.
This means that the local division has de-
cided to run the two big meets. Under the
new rules the division would hardly be per-
mitted to take the national circuit dates
and barter them of to any individual or
organization. This being the case it now
appears as though the officials Of the local
division have decided to embark into the
racing game. So far as known nothing has
been done in the matter. The dates as
signed will have to be accepted before April
1, before anything definite can be deter
mined upon.
During the past fortnight the membership
OF the local division increased considerably
more through the renewal of old member
ships rather than through the numbers of
the new members. While only seven new
names have been recorded, there have been
forty-fve renewals, which brings the total
up to 051 members. The new members are
as follows:
n. e. Irwin, 21OS 18th street northwest.
w. II. Ward. bureau of navigation.
y. r. Williams. 70 New York avenue.
e. w. Mockabee. Levant Wheelmen, AIS

The registration of professional riders.
under the new racing rules has commenced
and the first rider to be enrolled is Frank
Waller, the flying Dutchman, who is we'll
known in this city. According to the plan
the country is divided into districts over
which the members Of the racing board
have control. and in each district the nurn
bering of the professionals commences in
round numbers. Waller 10 Tn The New
York district, and his registration number
Is 1000. Two other professional riders are
also announced as having registered, W.
W. Hamilton and 8. q. Meixell,. both Of

1901, respectively.

more for May 80. This evidently means
that French will haye charge of the race
meet. He is the rider who was somewhat
challenge which was filed by A. c. Moran
or this city for a match race. While French
accepted the challenge of Henry Smith for
twenty-four-hour race. Moran made
terms for 25-mile match race with
w. G. LeCompte. In view of the fact that
French has secured the sanction for the
Decoration day race at Baltimore, it looks
now as though the match race between
Moran and LeCompte will not come off on
May 80, at Baltimore, as originally in
tended.
Chief Consul Conway W. Sans of the
MARYLAND division is hustling things along
In his bailiwick. He has urged nearly all
OF OF tne members. of the division personally
to vote for the good roads bill now before
the legislature. and now he comes out with
the following characteristic letter:

fore the general assembly adjourns, there

want the bills introduced by the Hon. Ash
ley M. Gould into the house passed. and tell
them that Senator Williams has introduced

enough time to write these letters or to

by the end Of this month the scheme of
prizes for obtaining new members will be
announced. All applications received from
the LIST of April will begin to be counted.
These premiums of prizes are going to be
worth getting. Look out for Them

sity; April z, Rochester; April and 3, Mon

The revolt In the Baltimore team seems
to be bringing about a crisis among the ex-
champions. And the affair locks to be just
a shade retributive In the light of the trade
that dropped Jack Doyles name from the
Oriole roster and transferred him to this
city. For a long time before the deal was
made 1t was an open secret that the disaf-
lection. of whom the now kicking members
were a part, was caused by Jack, and that
one of it's objects was the removal of the
great first baseman. History has recorded
the result of their plans so far as Doyle is
concerned, but 1t might be inferred from
latest movements that the players in ques-
ton have adopted the notion that they are
the whole thing, thu real Baltimore team.

Bill Eagan stumped the Pittsburg players
Thursday night with this proposition: Sup
pose runner at third starts to steal homo
en- a pitcher who has a wide swing, and the
catcher steps on the plate to receive the
pitch, can the batsman insist upon his right
to hit at the ball, even II to do SO he has
to push the catcher out OF the way? By
laying stress upon the fact that the ball
would be pitched and not thrown Eagan
kept the argument going for an hour. The
play had never bsen tried on Schrfver or
Murphy, and both held that the catcher
would have the right Of way under the cir
cumstances, but Schriver admitted that
Hoy was helped to the plate In a game at
Pittsburg last season by the only play Of
the kind he ever saw.

third floor of the house, where the cere- mony was performed Near the center of the room was placed a small table, which was covered with a superb altar cloth and on it were placed two large gold crowns, two immense wax candles about two feet long and a communion cup. The ceremony was begun in the room adjoining the front room. The priest took his place in the doorway, while the bride and groom stood close to and facing him. The usual marriage VOWS were made while standing here and after the priest had placed a ring on the third finger of the right hand Of both the bride and groom and they had each kissed the cross he led the way into the front room and took a position at one side of the table. The wedding party followed. It consisted of all the relatives of the couple pres- ent. They stood in two lines immedi- ately back of the bride and groom. The priest then read prayer which con- sumed about twenty-five minutes. At the conclusion he placed a crown on the head of both the bride and groom and each took one of the large candles in their hands. Smaller candles about ten inches long and one-quarter inch in diameter were given to each one of the wedding party and the guests. Af- ter another short prayer the wedding party marched around the table or al- tar three times, chanting a prayer, in which the wife is charged never to leave her husband no matter what hap pens and also informs her that should she do so it would not be possible to marry again. The wedding party again took up their stand in front of the al- tar. The sacrament was administered to both bride and groom and after a short blessing the ceremony was con- cluded Incense wac burned during the entire progress of the happy event. The priest wore long flowing robe, richly bedecked with jewels and lace. The bride, who is rather comedy and has a very fair complexion was dressed in a rich gown of pink silk. She wore a bridal veil which reached to the ground. The groom wore the conventional black. Each seemed rather embara ssed, but after the ceremonies had been couclud- ed they quickly recovered themselves and appeared to be quite happy. Cof- fee was served to the guests.

 Mrs. Samuel Hemingway gave a large and brilliant reception from un- til D. m. Saturday at her handsome Temple street residence. In the broad hall only white and green were used. The balustrades, entwined with green, had at either side of the landing a great cluster of white chrysantne- nuns fastened with white ribbons, In the reception room the color scheme was yellow and white, roses ana chrys- anthemums being used in loose clus- ters The library was all in red car- nations, while the dining room opening beyond was in pale pink. The other decorations were very tastetul and unique. Bradley of Fair Haven was the florist decorator for the occasion. Mrs. Hemingway received in an effec- tive gown of straw colored gauge, the skirt lowered In pink roses, with thelr green leaves. The bodice was chiefly of ecru lace with green and pink vel vet combination. Assisting her in re- ceiving were her three sisters, Mrs. Arthur B. Hart of New York, whose gown was of cerise and white liberty silk; Mrs. Abraham B. Perkins of Ger mantown, who wore fine gown of pale rose silk made with jetted lace, and Mrs. James S. Hemingway, whose gown was of pink satin and white silk net.
