The car, like the prince of Wales, is
scholarly. but, says the Bystander,
sport IS distasteful to him. He makes
an exception, however. in the case of
rowing. For the empress and his chill
dren he has the deepest affection, and
he regards every hour passed away
from them in the affairs OF state as an
unnleasant but necessary duty.
His greatest enjoyment is to take
them out in his boat, and. in his shirt
sleeves. to row them on the lake near
the palace. The empress is a woman

The oft postponed wheeling races
originally scheduled to be held on July
8 by the Alameda fourth of July com
mittee will actually be pulled onto
day. The races will be held over
either the Central avenue or Pacific
avenue course. whichever proves to be
in better shape. Both We're oiled dur
ing the week and whichever dries
out quicker will be used. The events
down for decision in their ortier are:
Heats of one mile championship
men
3-Fifteen mile team race.
Quarter mile record trial with
Interest centers chiefly in the 15 mile
team race, although the mile champion
ship event will come in for a deal OF
attention The Is mile race will be
for five men teams, each to ride three
miles. Seven clubs have entered teams
and the race should prove grand
struggle from start to finish.
Following are the entries:
First heath. Clark. Alameda wheelmen: F.
Black, Oakland wheelmen: A. Bernal Garden
City; c. Taggart, New Century; John Coughlan,
Golden City; W. Mckenzie. Berkeley; Z. Burns,

The quarter mile record trial
will bring together the cream of the
sprint division, and with a flying start
there will be some fast riding.
The one mile championship event
has an open look and there. are at
least dozen candidates who look to
have a good chance.
The New Century wheelmen have
finally accepted the challenge of the
race. The def was hurled many weeks
ago but the acceptance has been slow
in materializing. The two clubs will
meet October IL and the losing team
will buy cup for the winner and also
pay for the sanction.
The newly electec directors of the
Bay City wheelmen met during. the
week and elected the following officers
for the ensuing year. r. Dunlap, pres
ident: H. H. Boulton, vice president,
H Curden, secretary and treasurer

lieutenant; +. Winterstein, second lieu

desertion will prove great loss to
strengthen the already strong Bay
City team.
