SIMS vEHsGs scHADE

The fact that W. Fred Sims and Fred A.
L. schade will meet Monday afternoon.
Labor day, in a. match race at the Park
track Increases the local interest in the
merits of both cyclists so far as their rid
ing ability is concerned. A good many
seem to think that Sims will prove him
self to be by far thA best rider, and that
he will win the heats In succession, making
two only necessary to determine the win
ner. There are ssthers who place implicit
confidence ia Schade, and who believe that
he will win, even If it takes three heats to
determine the winner.
Until this year Sims and Schade have
not been in race together since 1896. At
that time both were amateurs Sims was
regarded as the lest man in the city and
Schade was rising rider Sims had been
in class B, and had just been restored to
his amateur standing. The meeting of the
two riders was eagerly looked for by the
cycling public. just eagerly as the event
Monday is being looked for May 30 the
two came together. In two open events,
one for mile and the other for a shorter
distance. Sims won. The short race was
