BICYCLE RACES
 THURSDAY NIGHT
COMPETITION FOR THE PRIZES PROMISES TO BE VERY KEEN. PRICES ARE REDUCED AND LARGE CROWDS EXPECTED.

The races Thursday night promise to be exceptionally interesting from the fact that the competition will be very keen. and the riders will ride every foot of the various distances in order to get the prizes which have been offered.
 The crowds will probably be as large or larger than on the previous nights as the price of admission has been reduced from 75 cents for the grand stand to 50 cents. and from 50 cents to 25 cents in the gen. eral admission seats.
 The local amateurs are training hard to get Into condition to meet the riders from Atlanta, and they hope to capture the prizes. It is expected that Elliott and other Atlanta riders will be here. There will be at least six events. and the races will be exciting. Already there Is every indication that at least a score of riders will enter the one mile handicap for anna teurs, and this will divide the race into four or five heats.
 The races will consist of one mile open handicap for amateurs, race for boys under l6 years of age, a consolation race for those failing to quality in the finals of the handicap race, and a match for To- cal motors.

OYSTERS BEING SERVED. Local Restaurants Force the Season,
 Demand for BivaIves.

Several of the local restaurants have been serving oysters for a week or more This is rather early, and is a violation of the old rule that oysters should not be eaten in month not containing the letter 'r.'' Birmingham people do not heed this idea. however, as there has been a pretty good demand at the cafes for bivalves.
 The various fish stands of the city will not receive oysters until the latter part of August or the first part of September. and it will be that time before the retail trade will be supplied by local merchants. Tho restaurateurs now serving oysters get them direct from dealers on the coast.
