Bicycle rack.

The Carson Wheelmen have con-
tracted for the construction of bicy-
Gle track at the race track. 1t is to be
built in the infield, sixteen feet wide on
the homestretch and twelve feet the
balance OF the mile. 1t will be inclos-
ed with cedar posts and cable wire.
When finished it will doubtless be the
fastest track on the coast. The
Wheelmen deserve much credit for
their undertaking and we would sng-
gest that they open a list for contribut,
ing mem bers at a moderate monthly
fee, and no doubt many business and
professional men, as well as citizens
would become members, thereby en-
couraging the Wheelmen to exer
themselves in making the Carson team

crime Of grand larceny and was there
upon sentenced by the court to impris-
onment iii the State Prison of the
State Of Nevada for a tern of five
years at hard labor He is now serv
ing the term of imprisonment imposed,
and brings this proceeding FOR his dis
charge, basing his right thereto upon
the claim that the Judgment is abso
lutsly void for the reason that the
conrt exceeded its jurisdiction in i'm
