WILL BECOME A JOCKEY.
Jimmy Michael to Abandon the
Wheel for the Horse.
Has Made Arrangements with Phtup
J.Dwysp, President of the Broolka
lya Jockey Club, to Ride
His Horses. Ia

Tho Now York Journal and Advertiser
says: Jimmy Michuel, the world-famed
bicycle rider, had conference tho,
other day with Philip j. Dwyer, pres.
ident of the Brooklyn Jockey club, the
owner of big racing stable. Though
1t did not result in any contract being
made, the little Welshman is started,
nevertheless. on his new career as d
Jockey. After the conference, Michael
said: Eyes, am going to make the
experiment. I have not signed any pas
pers, but Mr.. Dwyer has agreed to give
me chance, and am going to start
at once. have ridden horses good
deal, though never race horse, so
that am not altogether green. OF
course, shall have to learn the busi-
ness, in which am very hopeful of sue.
ceeding."
Mr.. Dwyer, while not in any way over.
confident. said: ut will certainly be a
great advantage to the turf if lad
like Michael makes a success as q
jockey. l hope that he will do so. /
see no reason why he should not. MI
chael is not too old to begin, and he
told me that he only weighs 9s pounds.
Michael will not give up cycle rid.
ing at any rate, for the present. No
papers are signed, nor will there be-
for the present. Michael will try the
life and see how it suits him. He is to
go to my stable at Gravesend to-mor-
row morning, and will take up his quar-
ters there. If he gets along all right,
I will give him every possible chance
and the opportunity to show what he
can do on the best horses in nv stable.H
