TWO TIGER STORIES.

The latest use to which bicycles have
been applied is tiger hunting. A paper
published in British India gives an ac-
count Of this startling innovation. A
pig, it appears, was carried away by a
tiger from coffee estate at Castle
void, in the state of Johore. THE news
having been sent to Johore," runs the
report, the sultan's crackers were out
on bicycles by midday and located the
tiger in some low shrub within half a
mile of the shed. The sultan himself
rode out at o'clock, and, after a short
beat of half an hour, large tiger was
driven out of the shrub and fell to
one well placed shot by the sultan
through the tigers forehead
One of the London Globes CORE

sibility for the following story: 1.-TWO

Ping! went the rifle, but the tiger came
on. Ping, again, and, with blood
flowing, the beast sprang forward with
jaws apart. The sportsman saw his
one chance; he held the rifle sideways
and horizontally to the growing beast
and in a second the huge teeth were
firmly locked in the barrels. Then did

LOCAL FOOTBALL.
Wheeling Will Have at Least One
Good Team,
WHICH WILL BE CAPTAINED BY
MR.. FRANK KINCHELO E-SOME
EXCELLENT MATERIAL TO
MOLD THE TEAM FROM-OTHER
FOOT BALL NOTES.

Frank Kincheloe, after some little
trouble, has got together some excel
lent foot ball material which, nodded
to team, should form an aggrega-
ton hard to beat The players are
well known locally, and all are ex-
perienced.
From the present outlook, the team
will be made up as follows: Echols,
formerly of Bethany, who played on
numerous teams in the city, will play
either at center or tackle. Evans, of
East Wheeling, formerly with w. & j.,
will fill one of the guard positions.
Frank Norrington, who made such an
excellent record as end on the First
West Virginia foot ball eleven, will
play the other guard, or in case a
better man is found may fill an end or
tackle position. John Slippner, OF Ben
wood, who also played on the First
West Virginia team, is a guard proba-
bility. Harry Prosser, of the Island,
who is unknown almost in foot ball
circles, although a good man, is out
for tackle. Hamm, another Island boy,
is also a probability for tackle. The
euQS nave HOL D66u 1ully uSClu6u Ou do
yet, but if Sol and William Edwards,
of Aetnaville, consent to play, those
positions will be more than filled. Be-
hind the line the team is very strong.
Kincheloe will play quarter, the halves
will be Brunnell ed McNichol, Of the
Island, who have played on the Madi-
son athletic club for a number of
years Full back will be filled by Jas.
Sweeney, of Martins Ferry, probably
the finest and best known back in this
section.
Kincheloe will in all probability do
the kicking, with McNichol as an en-
Urgency man. Competition for posi-
tons is invited by Capt. Kincheloe.
Any one desiring to secure a position
on the team need only to report at
the old Bridge Park any evening at 5
O'Clock, when the team practices, and
they will be given a fair show.
Games will be arranged with Beth
any, Scio, Franklin, Mt. Union, Mounds
vile, Acmes of Steubenville, Wellsburg,
East Liverpool, Washington (Pa) A.
c., and probably Parkersburg and Sis
tersyille.
The first game is with Bethany next
Saturday.

IT OPENS
To- Morrow Nigh, Meaning the Winter
Bowling Tournament on the Fette
Alleys---Will Be Preceded by a
Novel Street Parade.

Tomorrow night will be the gala
night for bowling in the city, and such
a reception as will be received by the
bowlers would remind a stranger of
Dewey Day, for the Wheeling league
bowlers will own the town from seven
until about nine o'clock, after which
the alleys will be turned over to them
for the balance of the winter bowling
season. The parade of the bowling
teams will be composed of the X. X.
K, All Rioters, Kissing Bugs and De
Shack teams, and will start from Will
McElroy's drug store at seven O'Clock.
The teams in the parade will have their
wagons decorated very rastefully, and
will be well Illuminated by rel fire.
The officers accompanied by Mayor
Sweeney will lead the parade in an
open carriage, and the newspaper 1e-
porters will also help swell the process
sion in an open carriage.
Many friends of the various teams
will decorate their places OF business
and paint their neighborhood red with
red fire while the bowlers are painting
the town the same color. The past
week has been one of practice, and the
teams have all left the alleys each
night well pleased with the general ap-
pearance of their winter quarters, and
the scores that were made would be
credit to any team. Several private
balls have been ordered by captains,
and if the present rate keeps up the
management will be saved the trouble
entirely of buying new balls, as every
bowler will have his own traps.
The new cupboard that has been
added to the bowlers' comfort has been
very favorably commented on from all
sides as a thing that has long been
needed, and they don't see how they
have so long gotten along without it.
Some of the teams have already put
up the required five dollars forfeit with
the secretary, while the others will put
up theirs the coming week.

A QUEER ACCIDENT.

An odd sort of an accident happened re-
Gently to Charles f., McGue, the veteran
trainer, who was until lately the handler
of the Columbia College cycling team. Nc
Cue has quit the racing game and is now
exploiting a gas lamp, but he still can set
a lively clip on the road and does not let
many go past him. He has been limping
about with a cane as the result of a mix
up. The peculiar part of the affair is that
it was the left leg that the limp was in
and that limb is artificial from just
below the hip. The idea of the made"
leg being hurt McGue as being funny. and
he explained it to all his friends. 1t was
The steel braces in the leg that were dam

A stranger circumstance still is that Nc
Cue has been riding for years, and his
friends, one and all, were dumbfounded
when he revealed to them that one of his
fast uedaling legs was artificial

NEW YORK, September 30.-The adj
miral, Mayor Van Wyck and Senator
elect Chauncey NJ. Depew partook Of
breakfast together in the main saloon
Of the Sandy Hook. The admiral was
quite abstemious, drinking only lit
tie bouiIlon and declining a cigar. He
greeted Governor McNillin, OF Ten
nessee, very cordially and said he had
a good story TO tell him.
It's about one OF your boys. During
one Of the land battles outside OF Man
la one Of Tennessees regiments was
engaged in skirmishing. One OF your
soldiers had ben shot at twice by a
Filipino, and both shots missing fire,
the Tennessee boys became disguised
at the poor craftsmanship OF the Fill
Pine and ran over TO him and gave him
a good spanking, saying, Now go home
and be good
Rear Admiral Schley, who was on
board with Rear Admiral Philip, was
also warmly greeted by the admiral,
and they snapped several stories.

bratlon?" a reported asked OF the ad-

Speaking OF the honOrs which had
been showered on him. Admiral Dewey
said: It's a great thing when a grand
city like New York stops work for two
days to do honor to one man.

THE GREAT YACHT RACE.

81 don't remember any challenge that
has been so popular as this of Sir
Thomas Lipton's. He is almost as
much of an American as he is an Irish
man or Scotchman. He is a self
made man and he made the foundation
of his fortune in this country. Sprung
from the plain people he has always
been friendly to the people. Americans
will not grudge him victory in the
least if he fairly earns it.
mo matter what the issue of the
present conflict may be, the result is
sure to be of benefit to the sport of
yachting. l take it for granted that
Sir Thomas Upton and Mr.. Fife are
both sportsmen, and that in case of de-
feat there will be none of the quibbling
and uncalled-for protests which Lord
Dunraven was so i'll advised as to
make, and which effectually destroyed
his popularity as a yachtsman. Sir
Thomas has declared that if he is beat
en- this year he has friends who will
Immediately challenge for the cup, so
that there will be another race in 1900.
l gather that there is to be an organized
attack every year on the trophy until
it is won.
Should Sir Thomas Upton win the
cup there will be a rush of candidates
for the honor of its recovery, and Amer
lean yacht-designers, put on their met
tie, are sure to turn out some superb
racing craft and to excel their best eff
forts in the past. Outing for October.

THE InIusVfLLE RACES.

LOUISVILLE, KY, September 30
The fifth annual meeting of the Louis
vile Driving and Fair Association came
to a close to-day. The weather was
cool but pleasant, and one of the best
crowds of the meeting saw day of
good sport. Two favorites and two
outsiders were the money winners.
Only one stake event was on the card,
the Falls City trot for the 2:15 class,
which was easily won in straight heats
by Valpa, owned and driven by Roy
Miller of Macon Ga.

FRIENn or CYCIISTS

In Western Australia the camel is in
deed the cyclists friend and quite with
out effort or intention on its part. AS
is well known, horses entirely object to
camels and will not pass them on the
road. The consequence of this is that
through the bush the camels make their
own paths, and these, pressed out by
the animals large, flat feet as they fol-
low one another in single file, are beat
en- hard and smooth, so that they make
the most perfect cycle tracks it is posi-
BILE to have. This is an immense boon
to lovers Of the wheel in the neighbor-
hood of Kalgoorlie, where sportsmen,
miners, newspaper boys and many 9TH
er people use cycles immensely, for
horses are too dear for anything like
general use.

REIFF is IA; GETS $4,000 A YEAR.

The jockey sensations of the year
seem to be "Skeets'' Martin and little
Johnny Reiff. Both are now riding in
England and have only kept up the
reputation for skill OF American jock
eys established by Tod Sloane. Mar
tin has been unusually successful and
is probably the foremost rider now on
the turf. In the matter of skill and
good judgment, Willie Martin is gener-
ally recognized as a top notcher, but
he is little too heavy to have the OPP
portunities given his lighter contem-
poraries. "Skeets" Martin made re-
markable record on the Pacific coast
last winter, winning something lilee A
per cent. of his mounts. He then went
east to ride for Gideon & Daily, but for
some reason or another they became
dissatisfied with him and released him
from his contract, whereupon he sailed
for England, and has been winning
straight along over there.
Little Johnny Reiff is remarkable be-
cause he is such a diminutive chap.
He caught the English crowd from the
start, became the pet Of the lady pat
rons of racing and made a big hit with
the Prince of Wales. His elder broth
er, Lester, is also riding in England,
and has done fairly well. The Reiff
boys are natives of Wichita, Kas., where
their parents live. Johnny can ride at
60 pounds and is IA years of age. Les
ter, the elder brother, is very small
chap and is a partner in the racing
firm of Duke & Wishard, for which his
younger brother rides. Johnny. the
little fellow, receives salary of $15,-
600 a year. Lester is riding for Rich
ard Croker. He is said to be wealthy,
not only having made great deal of
money on the turf. but having been
very successful in oil well speculation
in Ohio.

ON THE CHOICE OF CLUBS.

Pressing weak club instead of max
ing half shot with club sure to
carry the distance is a fault the ordin-
airy golf player finds it hard to over
come. On OF the good results of watch
ing a match between two professional
golfers is the knowledge they show of
the proper clubs to use in the different
situations of the game. To appreciate
the lesson best, the professional match
should be on a course that the novice
plays over, for he will be surprised Of
ten to see a lofting iron used where
he would have tried a full mashie shot,
or else to see a brassie used where the
amateur would have tried a cleek. The
reason is that, aside from the lie of the
ball, the professional has Always in
mind the distance, the lay of the land
before the green and the force of the
wind, while the amateur usually only
cares to get an outstanding lie so that he
may use his fayorite club, whatever it
may be, and get the ball well away.
