Few of the cycle fans who have
watched the victorious career of Emil
Agras, the speedy California rider on
the saucer track this summer know
that this young athlete was the prin-
cipal in one of the most sensational
events that ever happened in a bicycle
race. Only few of his intimate friends
know the story of how AgraZ, wounded
in the leg by a rifle bullet. fired by the
hand Of a rival club member. contin-
ued an eight-mile relay in the annual
road race around the San Francisco
bay and won for his club the .3aker
and Hamilton cup trophy the blue rib
bon event i'm California cycle racing.
Yet this is just what the man who
has pleased hundreds of Salt Lake
cycle fans this season on the saucer
track by his grit and plucky riding did
last year, and made for himself a name
that viii live for years in Pacific coast
cycling history.
There are several rival cycling clubs
in and around san Francisco that an
nUally compete in a big road race
around the bay. The two most prom
inent of these clubs are the San Jose
Wheelmen and the Bay City Wheel
men. These clubs are bitter rivals and
annually draw thousands to witness
their struggles for victory in the great
team relay race. The race was held
last year on oct. 12'and, among the San
Jose relay riders We're Agraz, Limberg
and Burton Downing. all Of whom
have ridden here this year.

of AgraZ's life if necessary. on the day
Of the race HObsOn, with a companion,
hid in a clUmp of trees along the race
course and deliberately laid in wait for
Agraz. The course is a circular one
and the first time around four shots
We're fired at Agraz without effect on
his second trip, while Agraz was lead
ing the bunch by a safe margin, Hob
son deliberately stepped out from be-
hind a tree and fired, striking Agraz

Agraz at once yelled to friends along
the course that he had been shot, but

blood streaming down his leg and SUI
fering greatly, the plUcky Californian
finished the seven remaining miles OF
his relay, winning the race by narrow
margin for his club AS he crossed the
tape he tainted away in the arms of
his friends, who did not know of the
accident. A doctor in the crowd was
called and. seeing the blood, examined
the wound and found Agraz had been
shot The wounded rider was carried
home. where he was welcomed as the
hero of the hour by his townspeople.
HObsOn was arrested inmeGiately
after the race and claimed that il was
an accident The evidence connected
with the affair and testimony OF per
sons who saw the shot fired proved
cOnclUsively that HObsOn had deliber-
ately Waylaid Agraz and shot him for
the purpose Of helping the rival club
win the much-COveted trophy. Agraz
refused to prosecute HObsOn and. after
lying in jail for some time, he was Civ

SOME ANCIENT HISTORY.
"one Who Was in the Game" Tells
About State Fair Football Game.

Sporting Editor Herald:
L notice t. Is stated that the football
game 10 be PLAYED between the University
and Ogden High school at the state fair
grounds is the first football game held
IN connection with a state fair. This Is
a mistake. as in October, 1898, under the
auspices of the d. A. & NJ society was
played the game which has had greater
influence on football than any other
game ever played IN the state. At that
time the High school team, with Allen,
Odel Hampstead. McGraw and others
had swept everything before II. The fair
management promised a gold medal to
the winner of a game to be played dur
ing the fair, and the university was per-
suaGed to organize a team to compete.
It's old players had all left school and
there We're scarcely two students in the
Institution who had ever seen a football
game. One LippenhOff had just come $50

had forgotten more about football than
any westerner ever knew. Under his
tutOrship team was organized from

was made 10 teach the game I'm less than

the expected result-the Varsity boys

The humiliation OF being beaten so
badly and the taunts from High school
students and the public alike were too
much to endure, and the victOrs were
challenged TO game on the following
Thanksgiving day. Just six weeks of
practice made team out of recruits. and
to this day the story is told of Hvde's

line and OF how Reynolds PLAYED a win
