MATCH A FAILURE.
Waller Taken Sick h the Twen:,.i
Hour Motor-paced Rae,.

Waltham, July 4.-The 24-hour motor
paced match between Frank Waller and
Burns Pierce, which started at 5 o'clock
yesterday afternoon, and was the chief
attraction of the two days meet at the
Waltham bicycle park, proved consider
able of disappointment At the com
pletian of the race Pierce had a lead of
about 60 miles, and the record was not
even approached. At 8 o'clock this morn
ing Waller was taken sick and subse-
quently forced to retire from the track
reappearing only at intervals throughout
the remainder of the day
For some time after Waller left the
track Pierce rode steadily and fast, but
when he had gained a lead that 1t would
be impossible for his rival to overcome
he left the track, returning only when
Waller went out and remaining only a
few minutes at time, not making any
attempt to lower the record for the time
When the race was finished Pierce had
covered 449 1-6 miles and Waller 1901
Walters previous record for the "a hours
was 4S4 miles 5S7 yards. Waller rode his
last mile in 2:03.

Races.
Races.

Henley Eng, July 4.-The river
Thames presented an animated scene
this afternoon, at the opening of the
Henley races. There are So entries, as
against 81 in 1898, of which three
crossed the seas, without mentioning
Gaudin, who, though rowing under the
Thames colors, is ambitious to carry
off the diamond SOULS for France. The
oarsmen of the Argonaut Rowing Club
of Toronto, Canada, now here, have al
ready made many friends, and will
make a bold bid for both the grand
challenge cup and the stewards chal-
lenge cup, though the absence of a
body swing in the boat makes the Eng
lish critics shake their heads. Close OBJ
servers point out the important fact
that their long slide makes their stroke
look much shorter than it is.
The Dutch crew from Deifat arrived
today, and will meet the Canadians in
the first heat for the grand. The Ham
burgers continue to attract much at
tention. Most of the English crews
are well up to Henley form, though
none is of extraordinary merit The
Leander eight for the grand is not, per
maps, Qulle up TO IHe leVel or former
crews, and many have already spotted
the combined Trinity Cambridge crew
as the winners of the grand.
Great things are expected of Black
static in the diamonds, as usual,
though Fox of Pembroke, Cambridge,
is highly regarded. In the meantime.

That Appears To Be the Record Of Pas
sengsrs Carried BY the Consolidated.
The street car employee was hard
pressed yesterday. At the Consolidated
office last night it was estimated that
during the day and evening $4,000 pas
sengers had the opportunity of getting
rid of plugged nickels. They also had
the best chance that viii come in years

Twenty-three cars on the Lake line
were kept running on minute and-a-
half time, but that did not keep one of
them from being damned full. There
was no such thing as taking &C ar ride
on the Lake line yesterday and getting
a cool breeze, The dummy trains were
run, and passengers had a chance to
kick when trouble came in pulling loads
over the grade coming from the lake.
Several conductors reported at the car
barn last night in a battered condition.
Some had been pushed off the running
board by the surging crowd, and others
had taken a call-down and had trouble
with tangle- headed passengers. The
day was the best coin-producer of the
year, and things went off smoothly
enough to suit ever one but the chronic
kicker.

CLUBS KEEP OPEN HOUSES.
Biggest Gathering at Picnic
and Sports by Natural
ization Clubs.

All the lake resorts swarmed with
humanity yesterday.
The crowd came early and stayed late,
and in the early afternoon assumed
record proportions.
Not one of the privilege men nor of
the frequenters of Lincoln park, and
the picnic grounds and club houses had
any memory of a larger crowd.
A conservative estimate places the
number of visitors to the shores of
Quinsigamond at not less than 25. 900.
AS many as 5000 people were in Lin
coin park at one time in the late af-
ternoon, and throughout the entire day
ana evening the seating capacity of the
new theatre proved all too small for the
throng that patronized the double bill
which was presented by a clever COM
pany of artists.
The club houses, one and ALL kept
open house throughout the entire day
ana we'll into the night, and dancing
and picnics were everywhere.
The biggest gathering of the day was
at Qulnslgamond park, where the Nat
uralizat1on clubs of wards and held
forth in their annual picnic and field
sports. The attendance was large, and
II is estimated that 1000 people were on
the grounds. A variety of entertain
ment was provided, and a continuous
round of sports, including bicycle races
morse trot, track and field events, two
Dali games and sports for girls and

A man who was old enough to know

TRANS on the south side of Front street

position on the piazza of the Worces-
ter House, and seemed to take special

in another instance woman's dress

cracker, which exploded on her skirt.
