NOT CONTENT WITH COUNT
James McIIrath Has Now Made $50
Miles of II SextunIa

At 1:1S p. m. yesterday James McIlrath
completed "qulnt' century in "a hours
and 13 minutes, establishing a record over
the Minnetonka course. At o'clock last
evening he started on another century
and expects to finish long before daylight
The record made by Mr.. McLlrath dur
ing his long ride is remarkable because

started out on the first 100 miles He

bad bruises. Tuesday night the last part

heartened by the rain bath, but con-
tinued, completing the AGO, and, after
seven hours rest, started on his last 100
at o'clock yesterday morning, finishing
shortly after l o'clock
He then decided to make another ceE-
tury, and establish a sextuplet century
record After resting until 715 p. m, he

but McIlrath fortunately was accom- :.

A. H Moore promptly took the pace on
his single, and set a tffteen-mile an hour
gait until caught by the tandem, which
had received a quick repair, The tandem

and Minnehaha avenue, Mime apol;s. and
the pace at once changed from fifteen to
twenty miles an hour. Although Mciirath
was now well on his 600-mile Journey he
showed no visible signs Of exhaustion,
but, on the contrary, seemed to ENJOY the
faster pace, and stuck like a ieech 10 the
rear tire of the tandem. He was pulled
through the t1fty-mi,e stretch in hours
and 40 minutes, finishing the first round
trip at 10:55 p. m. riding strong and
anxious to finish the 100 at once He
was taken in hand by friends, however,
for needed treatment and rest At 2 a.

paced by Mrs. James McIlratn. He Wnl
probably finish the 600 miles 1T o'clock
this morning. unless some accident hap
pens. This will set the record at GO hours
30 minutes for the sextuplet century. This
will be the first time a sextuplet century
has ever been ridden in Minnesota by an
amateur wheelman, and only once has
this record ever been beaten in this state,
even by professional. Mr.. A \. Han
son, who made 1,G00-mile run over the
surveyed twentymile course last year,
has the mileage record for this distance
but Mr.. McIlrath's record is over a reg
ular century course, measui ing 1915 miles
for each century, with numerous nils and
bad places to encounter. His performance
will doubtless place him quite near
scratch in the Mortified handicap run

the place of payment should be accur-
ately described in the words above used

JEFFRIES AS UMPIRE.
HeaVyweiGht Will Appear at Lex
ingtOn Park sunday

The game next Sunday at Lexington
park is possessed of general interest on
account of the appearance as umpire of
the IN undefeated heavyweight James J.
Jeffries. The latter comes well versed in
all the points of the game. as he is
master of the art of hit and get away.
A retinue of his followers will be with
him. him This is Jeff,s first appearance in
any capacity in st. Paul. The people
nave heard of his many ring Victories,
but have never had an opportunity to
witness the man himself Undoubtedly a
big crowd will go out to the park and
cast ong-diStance remarks at the man
who whipped Fitz, Sharkey and Corbett.
The screen and a squad of bluecoats will
save them from annihilation.
The ball game will be another hot
contest between the local rivals-the
Hamm's and Lennon & Gibbons ciubs.
These teams met two weeks ago and to
everybody's surprise the brewers came
out on top. The clothiers are bent on
getting even and will muster a team that
will be sure to do the business
The bicycle races, which have won so
much favor in the past few games, will
be another big feature.
On the whole, the days sport will fur
nish the best programme yet put on.

changed places very often. The general
opinion seemed to be that the red boat.
which was won in the rattle by Commo-

fell 20 the lot of the Lake of Two Noun

these two again, most of those who wit

the red boat. which appears the larger

the best work, with Mr.. Routh at the
stick. although it must be admitted that,
as far as could be judged from shore,
Mr. Duggan. with the white boat, went
out too far at the end of the first round
before he went around the buoy, and
and thereby. lost a good deal. Mr. Tom
