LOOKING TO NEXT SEASON. —— Already Plans Are Being Made for the Spring—In the Meantime Social Gatherings and “Good Roads” Discussions Take the Place of Runs. scaler OLD WEATHER wheelmen are still en- enough to! thusiastic brave the chill win land ride to and from their work every day, ‘although the pleasure seckers on wheels are few and far between jast now. The wheel- men who ride for the pleasure they derive from the sport are en- tertaining themselves at indoor amusements now in order to be in good trim when the coming season opens for road riding. The wheel clubs are doing noth- ing in the way of bicycling at present, but some of the clubs are giving entertainments, an occa- sional theater party or dance, while several theater parties are on the season's program. The Rover Club of Georgetown expect to open the next season, as they will probably ap- ar on the road before the first day of March. t Monday night the annual meeting of the club was held, and the reports of the retiring officers were evidence of the prosperous condi- tion of the club. The election of officers re- sulted in the choice of the following: Charles R. Moran, captain; Robert C. Cox, lieutenan| A. Cookman Fisher, quartermaster, and F. C. Gore, trumpeter. , Capt. Moran will place the best riders in training for a paper chase as soon as the weather permits, and Washington's birthday will prob- ably be the date selected for the event. ‘The annual dinner of the Arlington Wheel- men will be given this year at Losckam’s. . 1892—SIXTEEN PAGES. ~ A Novel and ‘I: Game Graphically ed. ‘The Rider and Driver has the following in- teresting acconut of the latest addition to the lists of manly «ports: Mr. Burrie’s night at the Riding and Driving Club fs past, but his name will alwaysgo where- ever foot ball on horseback is played. Mr. Barrie's desire to produce something novel led him to consult with the bold cross-country rider and polo-playing Clarence H. Robbins and the frmous F.T. Lawrence of the Crescenta, an old Yale foot ball man. To the latter it is | due that the game retained its own character- istics. No more changes were made than be- j came necessary to transfer the game into the | eaddle. The following rules were formulated: | 1. ‘There shall be four players on a side and | ponies only shall be used. 2. Tho regalation Rugby foot ball shall be the ball used. 8. The goals shall consist of two planks, one each end of the ring, six yards long by a foot | in width, and ata distance of eight feet from | the ground.

A. W. Bulletin, is that now upon the statute books of the state of Oregon. The law reads somewhat like this: “AM traction engines and bicycles must carry two planks, each twelve fect by twelve inches by three’ inches, upon which to cross bridges, and must come toa stop within | atleast 100 feet of any horse-drawn vehicle | approaching from either direction.” | This | ordinance was placed on the books for the fol- lowing reasons, viz.: It was found that the heavy traction engines, used so extensively in | that portion of the country, were very likely to | break down the little wooden country bridges, hence the two planks to be ran upon in crossing these bridges. One member had at some time or other had his horse frightened by the steam | road engines, hence the “stop” clause. Now | comes the amusing part of the statute. One ef the rural legislators waa run down by a eaeless cyclist axsi smarting under the indig- rity proposed thst the words “and bicycles” Beadded to the statate. ‘This seemed to be « good idea and sithout rereading the law was d by the assembly with a unanimous vote. | he cyclists are now trying to have tho law re- | led and we hope that success will attend | thoir efforts. It is laughable in the extreme to | think of a eyclist mounted on his twenty-pound | machine and bearing two planks each twelve feet long by twelve inches wide by three inches | thick. No wonder there are so many trick riders in Oregon and what a stumbling block to the trade it moat be except in tho line of luggage carriers. When will the ‘“Renben” | legislators learn that they cannot discriminate | against the bicycl A CLRRICAL BICYCLE CLUB. Brooklyn has a cierica! bieyele club and next season the ministers will wear knee breeches | and will appear on parade. | Rey. Dr. Farrar of the First Dutch Reformed | Chureh, Rev. J. Wintrop Hageman, Pu. D.,an Dr. Heischmann of St. Peter's German Lu- theran Church were the originatora of the club, all three being enthusiastic wheelmen. It is stated that the idea of forming the club shocked some of the ministers, who would not listen to such a suggestion as forming a bicycle club, but there wasa large attendance at the first meeting and the club was regularly organ- ized. Dr. Heischmann was elected president, Rev. Dr. Harrison of the Bedford Heights Bap: tis Church, vice president, Dr. J. M. Farrar, treasurer. and Dr. Hageman, aceretary. Dr. Heischmann is quoted as saying, when asked what wus the idea of the club: fo give ministers an opportunity to enjoy | henithful exercise. The care of the soul is all | right enongh, vut if the health of the body is | not looked after where will the preacher be? | ‘There are hundreds of ministers in this town who would preach better and take a more cheer- ful view of life if their bodily health was better. And to my mind there is no exercise which is vo beneficial as bicycle riding. AMONG THE RACER! The German and Austrian cyclists are pre- paring to go next season after the road record established in the military horse race between Berlin and Vienna inst aummer. ‘The record itself ie several hours under wheel records for similar distances on poor American roads. The California Association of Cycie Clubs have decided to give a serier of road races on | the lust Sundays in January, February aud The first race will be a twenty- scratch over the San Francisco i Lumsden says the report that he will ride nn- der the colors of the New York Athletic Club next season is untrue, as is also the report that he will ride under any other than Chicago Cyeling Club colors, Peter Berio istit ting the Goddard buggy that | he won at Columbus with pneumatic tired wheels.

Candee attempted a rush, but failed. Robbins once more had the ball and the Blues once | more showed that their strength was more in the defensive than in the offensive. Robbins’ next attempt was very cleverly headed off by Erhart, but he followed it up by two eplendid rushes, dropping the ball on the touch for goal. Beard, on his larger Rufus, shoved his way through the Blues, and finished by dropping the ball in goal when time was called. The final score was—leds, 2; Blues, 1. Aside from Deard’s mount the teams were pretty evenly matched, but there 1s no doubt that his big horse played havoc in the Blues whenever there was a scrimmage. ‘The game us proposed by Mr. Barrie was, of course, an experiment, and, although the re- hearsals gave fair promise, it was but natural that he should fecl auxious as to the final re- sult.
