The pastor and members of st. Philip
A. NJ. r. Church, West Broad and Charles
street, have struggled day and night for
more than year TO raise the great finan-
cial burden which they were forced to as
sumo after the demolishment of their old
church building. To have done otherwise
meant a poor or half service, not having
a suitable place i'm which 60 congregate.
and finally resulting in a scattered flock
and inability to pay old debts or to UNI
dertake the needed responsibility of new
debts. They bought new church prop
erty, at West Broad and Charles streets
where they now worship, for $1,000 With
continued efforts and with the help of
many friends, white and coored, they have
paid $1,000 of the 5000 and now have on
hand nearly half of their next note of
$3.50 which falls due next Thursday 1t
is for the help which their friends have
continued to give them that they wish to
publicly return their sincere thanks.

An agreement has been reached between
the managers of Edouard Taylore, the
Frenchman, now at Belleair, and Arthur
Gardiner for a race between these two.
1t will be a middle distance event and a
New York paper, which is usually most
reliable, says that the match will be rid
den IN Savannah. From this it would seem
that the riders intend to come to Savan-
nah to do some training. Taylore is Just
now in bad shape as a result of his race
with Starbuck in Philadelphia two weeks
ago, but he expects to resume racing in a
few days.

1t has not happened before that the
Episcopal Church Congress met in the
spring. The one announced for New Or
leans in April next was appointed to meet
in that city last November but was post
poned on account of the prevalence of
yellow fever. These congresses are af-
fected by the low church party among
Episcopalians and provide a dignifed TO-
rum for the airing of ideas on church and
philanthropic matters. The congress has
no official power and takes no votes. The
ablest men of the church attend them but

The Northern racing men who are now
at Beleair say that the track at that
place is one of the finest in the world.
Belleair is a village of about $50 inhabi-
tants, but during the winter months the
population is greatly augmented by the
large number of people who journey there
to enjoy the mild climate The Plant
System has fine hotel there. The track
is on the order of a coliseum and is a
board oval. In the center are small lakes
of the kind so often found in Florida,
while on all sides there is a vista of
palms. The track is one-third mile in
distance and is said to be very fast The
construction is perfect and some worlds
records are expected to be broken before
the colony of cracks leave. A. G.. Batch
elder, who is with the riders, writes that
people for miles around flock to see the
men in their practice spirits and the
grand stand is crowded daily.
The "scorchers'' and those riders who
use drop handle bars in Washington city
are up In arms because of a local law
which has just been passed prohibiting
the use of drop handle bars. The inter-
probation of drop handle bars, according
to the law, are any bars the lower points
OF which are four inches beneath the sad
die. All drop bars of any drop at all
come under this rule, and as many riders
prefer that kind of bar the law is natu-
rally causing a great stir in the cycledom
of the capital.

The prospects for cycle racing are ex-
ceedingly bright and the coming season is
expected to be the busiest for riders and
the most successful in the history of the
wheel. Cycle racing has grown to enor-
nous proportions in the last few seasons
and everywhere it is being taken up. In
the North and East it is one of the most
popular forms of sport and the crowds
which attended the meets all through the
summer and the indoor matches in the
winter attest the growing popularity of
the racing game.
Savannah wheelmen could have been
holding races all through the winter, so
mild has been the weather. There have
not been a dozen days during the winter
that were too cold for the riders to don
racing suit. and when this is considered
it seems strange that some of Savannahs
progressive cyclists have not thought of
racing.
A great many Savannah riders will be-
gin training soon. Savannah has num-
Der of fast riders and many who did no
work to speak of last season will try their
luck on the track and path the coming
season. 1t is to be hoped that some
thing will be done with the track, or that
a new track will be built. There was talk
of a new track last season, but it did not
amount TO anything. The track on the
Thunderbolt road could be fixed up at lit
tie cost. but then there is the disadvan-
tage of their being no cars running to 1t.
So Jimmie Michael is married after all.
Whether or not Michael was married has
been a subject of much contention with
wheelmen everywhere for some time Nat
urally, when Michael obtained such
prominence the public wanted 10 know all
about him. 1t had been stated that Mich
ael was married, but this was afterwards
denied by his manager Michael was
shrewd enough not to speak on the sub
ject at all and would neither deny nor
confirm the report. Last week, however.
the cat was let out of the bag when it
was announced that the little Welsh
American had applied for a divorce 1t
seems Michael was married three years
ago and his wife is now residing in this
country. He claims she deserted him. At
the age of 81 Jimmie has experienced
"ife's little ironies."
