BICYCLE COP IS LONESOME.
The Deserted Boulevard Does Not
Suit Him.

The G~reenville section of the Boulevard
is now in fair condition, but 1t is little
patronized. The condition of the road
during the summer made cyclists shun it.
After one trip over the rough road cyclists
rarely desired to repeat the experience.
A few lone riders can occasionally be
seen at night, but they do not appear to
be enjoying themselves. The Bicycle
Cop says he is lonesome, and would
gladly have the summer days again.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July 27.-The pro-
ject to organize a new base ball club

The first bicycle race was for boys
under IA, a mile handicap. Wolf won,
Frame second, Jenning third, the res,
nowhere. Time, 2:39. Moore fell at the
lower turn.
The mile handicap for boys under 16
was a disappointing loaf, and was run
over. Smith won both times as he
pleased, Pickett second, and Pearlman
third.
Frazier and Albright were the only
starters in the race for boys under -,
and they made it very interesting.
Frazier won the race in 1871.
The officials were Walter Worls. Fred
Wells and Clarence Echols: Herman
friedrich starter.
THE DRESSING CONTESTS
were the most interesting features for
the butchers. They were two In num-
Der. The first was a sheep dressing
contest, between Frank Tigglebach ana
Jim Foster. 1t took place in stand
erected for the purpose, in the in
closure, facing the grand stand.
The judges were B. Gartner. Sam
Meeker, Louis Hoffman. and John
Medick.
Tigglebach secured a good start. but
Foster managed to finish at the same
time. Both men threw up their hands
simultaneously. The judges, after de-
liberating, called this contest a draw.
Time minutes and 40 seconds.
The calf dressing contest was among
jim Foster, Frank Kirchgessner and
Frank Tigglphach rchgessnpr fin
ished first, but cut his calf, while Tig-
glebach's work was so clearly superior
that the judges awarded their decision
to him. Time, SIS.
After the dressing contests, came the
watermelon eating match. A crowd Of
colored boys furnished intense amuse-
ment to the crowd The same bows
entered the pie eating, and bologne eat
ing contests, and the hungry youngsters
each secured a square meal.
Then came the creased pig contest,
which was furiously funny The fat
porker was something OF a sprinter, and
led a crowd g; 100 boys at merry clip
up and down the stretch in front of the
grandstand. A colored boy caught the
pig by the tail, and held on with
death-like grip, securing the pig as
prize.
The cake walk ended the programme
of events The representatives of the
colored aristocracy rode over in big
wagon. The leader was the inimitable
Archibald Johrsing, and the entrants
were those who participated in the
cake walk at the Elks' Oriental Far.
1t was a big card and the crowd ems
loved il immensely.

COLUMBIA'S NEW MAST.

BRISTOL, r. l., July 27.-Columbia's
steel mast was stepped to-day. 1t was
in place by seven o'clock this morning,
the workmen having begun on it before
daylight. All preparations possible
were completed last night so that the
final step was accomplished easily and
very quickly. As it stands the mast
looks taller than that of Defender, and
is considerably darker in color. The
top mast, in conformity with new
idea of her builders, was inside the
hollow main mast, and operating like a
telescope will be raised and lowered
from the deck.
