Both Barrett and Crawford, the wonders

Nichols says that McGraw, of st. Louis,
Is the most difficult man in the League to

Chicago has a string of six seaso ned

CYCLING NOTES.

Ninety-seven arrests were made for
scorching in New York City on a recent
Sunday.
The decided advantage of the toe clip is
that 1t keeps the foot firm, affording a
steady hold.
Many riders have overcome their horror
OF toe clips, as more are seen on the wheels
than ever before.
1t will do no harm to examine the nuts
once In while. Accidents may be averted
by this precaution.
The large number OF riders this season
indicates that interest in cycling Is by no
means languishing.
The rider who takes every care of his
wheel saves himself from many annoy
ances while out for trip.
The attempt to introduce thirty-inch
wheels isnot success. Most riders pre-
fer the twenty -eight-inch size.
The cycle racing that will be given at
the National meet OF the L. A. W. at Mil
waukee this sum mer will include several
of the National Cycling Association cham.
pionship events.
A few riders who have become attached
to their wheels have gone to much expense
in having them repaired, when for the
money thus expended they could have pur-
chased new machines.
Newhouse, of Buffalo. N. Y, made mile In
1.33 1-5, breaking the record held by Tom
Cooper on the same track of 1.35, also
breaking the State record for a mile.
When the tire has been damaged beyond
repair on a long ride from home the novel
idea Of Maine wheelman may be adopted.
Procure short piece OF rope and attach
it to the rim with strong string. The rim
will be saved from injury while riding
home.
The development of club life in conse-
quencs OF the bicycle has been something
remarkable. With the advent of the safety
type OF bicycle and its consequent adapta.
tion to women's use, wheel clubs have
become social bodies Of recognized standing
and considerable influence.
The L. A. W. announces that its High.
way Improvement Committee is alread y
receiving support in the movement to have
good roads planks inserted in the political
platforms. The newspapers in the agri-
cultural districts all over the country have
taken up the support of the movement and
the farmers as class are organizing to
support 1t.
