Offices. ——_+—-— DISTRICT RACING TRACK — te Country runs among the bicycle clubs have not been numefous this season or well attended. Interest sgems to be on the wane, although there are many unattached wheel- men who spend theif evenings and Sundays on the road. There is more enjoyment on a country ride, when the rider has a good wheel and good road, than there is in al- most any other sport. This is what a wheel- n told a Star reporter the other day. “It is not nearly so tiresome as driving,” he said. “A wheelman may get off his wheel as often as he pleases, and without the exertion of a jump, and then he does not have to tle or get some one to watch his wheel, as he would his horse. Then, again, the rider of a wheel is not compelled to keep on a sunny or dusty road at all times, for there are many paths through the country, and the narrowest of them may be ridden by any one who has had a month's experience on the wheel.” Two Interesting Events. The next two weeks the Conduit road will be the scene of two interesting cycle events, one the ten-mile race of the Georgetown Cyele Club and the other the twenty-mile road race, the first annual event of the kind started by Harry W. Higham, and to be Managed by the associated cycling clubs. The Georgetown club event will determine the club team for the season. All the mem- bers desiring to participate will start at the scratch, and the first four to cross the tape will make up the team. The second four will be held as a reserve team, and the members of this quartet will act as substitutes during the absence of members of the club team. This race was scheduled for last month, but a postpone- ment was found necessary for the reason that so many members were not in the city at that time. A number of the club mem- bers who were in the city at that time Went over the course, and Hert Pitkin, who is recognized as one of the best riders here crossed the tape first, making the ten miles in about twenty-seven minutes. This event is the most interesting one of the season to the individual riders, as all the fast men in the club are anxious to be in the ciub racing team. J. J. Fister, who holds the twenty-four hour record, is a Georgetown cycler, and he is almost certain to be one of the “big four’ on the road next week. The 20-Mile Race. Entries for the big twenty-mile event closed Saturday, and the race will take place on the 16th, As printed in The Star already, S. W. Merrihew, formerly of this city, but now of Wilmington, Del., has been designated as handicapper. This event will attract many wheelmen from neighbor- ing cities, several of whom had entered early in the week. The officers of the race Will be appointed at a special meeting of the associated cycling clubs tomorrow. The Conduit road was surveyed early last month under the direction of the Associated Cycling Clubs, with a view to establishing a one, two, five and ten-mile c The survey calls for a finish of the tw mile course at the distributing reservoir, with @ turn at the Washington Angling Associa- tion's club house. In order to make the finish on a straight stretch a distance of six hundred feet will be measured cast of the starting point and the same number west for the finishing point. This Is done in order to avoid ac- cidents at the finish, and it will also give spectators a better opportunity to witness the finish. The officers will comprise three judges, three timers, one starter and one clerk. ty Higham, speaking to a Star report- erday, aid he thought the race will he said, had been « in fairly he expected a number of them this evening. Among those who have already entered are some of the best local riders from ‘the clubs, as well as a number of unattached local wheel- men, The prizes are all in, and it is thought that there are enough of them to insure each rider some De.

The near approach of the time for the election of officers of the League of Amer- lean Wheelmen recalls the days when the league had a large but undesirable mem- bership. Only about two years ago there were nearly 1,000 names on the rolis,while today there are less than 100. The large membership was the result of an effort on the part of the wheelmen to capture some of the valuable prizes offered for new mem- In this indiscriminate scramble for prizes persons were admitted to member- shtp irrespective of the required qualifica- tions. It was not necessary at that time for an applicant to even own or know how to ride a wheel. His initiation fee, 32, was sufficient and some of the wheelmen anx- fous to get the prizes ‘paid some of the fees out of thelr own J. E. Woed, W. R.

The Second Profession: Game Here T! The professional foot ball games that have just been inaugurated in this city deserve better support than they have so far re- ceived. Yesterday, although the local team started out by winning on the day before, the at- tendance was quite slim, numbering less than 500, But those who were there attest- ed their growing interest in the sport by sat enthusiasm when the Washington kickers, by good work, forced their oppo- nen}s to hustle. The game was won by PhYadeiphia, 3 to 2. e Washington men claimed that a play by them in the last half gave them a goal, but Refere> Richmond admitted that he did not see the play and he would not allow it. There was a good deal of feeling shown over his decision, the local players arguing angrily with Manager Irwin, who sat in the grand stand, after the game had been called. The game was lost through the slow work of Washington in the first half, when Phil- adelphia gained three goals in short order. Only one point was made by the home team in that period. In the second half, though, the Washifig- ton men seemed to get their wind and went at the leather sphere with vim and determi- ration, which kept the visitors on the d: fensive all the time. One goal was made quickly, and three other times the local side had the ball over the Philadelphia goal line, so close to the posts that goals were claim- ed. It is said that the disputes arising from these close plays will hereafter be avoided through the use of goal nets, which are stretched over the posts, to catch over- Kicks. This will materially aid the referee in making his decisions, which cannot then be questioned, as to whether or not the ball went through. The game as played yesterday was too short. The whole struggle was over by a few minutes after 5 o'clock, and peop! who chanced to be a little late saw only a small part of the work. The second half did not seem to last much over thirty min- tes, although the regulations call for two minute halves. There should be an in- vestigation into the referee's watch at or ‘The score and make-up of the tcams fol- low: Washington. Lynch . Foot Ball Position: Philadelphia. Loughran Brennan -.J.

AT BASE HEADQUARTERS, An Air of Mystery Mas Been Hover- ing Around It. There has been an air of mystery ho ing around league headquarters this week. President Young spent several days locked up in his private office wrestling with the official averages. Then, a few days later, a report was flashed ever the country that there was to be a secret meeting of th league magnat-s, in some secluded spot, to consider the ways and means of dealing with the new base ball organization, which appears to be dete-mined to get a slice of the prosperity now prevailing in base ball circles. Callers at headquarters were informed that Mr. Young was not about. It could not be ascertained whether he was in the city or out of it. The statement was simply made that he would not be at headquarters for a day or two, and when the dizect ques- tion was asked: “Has he gone out of town to attend a special meeting of the league?” the non-committal reply. was: “1 cannot Say. What would New York have done without Charlie Farrell and Jouet Meekin? is a question that many Washingtonians have repeatedly asked themselves. th There have been “star” batterles in years, but it is doubtful if a players were ever in the same team and re! dered more valuable service throughout the season. The official records may not show Farrell as the leader of the catchers, nor will Meekin top out the pitchers, but when the all-around work of these two men is scrutinized every reasonable man will award them the t.tle of “The winning bat- tery of 1804." All of tre members of the Washington team have gone to their respective homes for the winter, excepting Charley Abbey, who has consented to try his luck at pro- fessional foot ball playing. He is not en- tirely familiar with the game, but as cne of the substitutes on the V gives promise of develeping into a winning chaser of the pigskin, THE CROQUET TOURNAMENT. The Contests Will Be Continued Next Week. Owing to the rain the croquet tourna- ment under the auspices of the Washing- ton players, which has been in_ prog: since Tuesday last at the grounds, uh street and Rhode Island avenue, and 12th | street between O and P streets, will be continued on Monday and Tuesday next. It was expected that the event would reach an end this evening. The visiting players, with one exception, left the city for their homes last evening. Mr, Bell of Wilmington, Del., will return on ‘Tuesday to complete his schedule of gam-s. Dr. Greenwell of New York city captured first prize in the first division, with W. H. Wahly of this city a close secon]. The games in the second and third divisions have not as yet been completed. It has been decided to make the third divisiun prize a gold medal. The visitors expressed themselves as be- ing highly pleased with the local grounds and with the manner in which they were entertained while in attendance at the tour- nament. They also expressed their int tion of coming to Washington next year. The Washington players feel highly grati- fled at the success of their first tourna- ment. They made a good showing against the visiting experts and expect to be repr. sented in the national tournament at Nor- wich, Conn., next August. The Woman Suffragisis. The District Woman Suffrage Association met in Wimodaughsis parlors, 1328 I street northwest, last Thursday evening. and elected the following officers: President, Mrs. Martha Powell Davis; vice president, Miss Anna M.

A Trip Through 2 Big Steam Plant. Rapid strides have been made In the wash- ing of clothes, and today the interior of a modern laundry presents a most tnter- | esting spectacle. At 43 G strget siands a modest, substantial looking two-story brick building, running back a hundred or more feet to a wide alley. Upon entering the washing room you are immediately im- pressed with the whirling of a vast amount of modern machinery. Cleanline: nd neatness is the one predominant. all-per- Vvading characteristic of the plant. The floors are as clean and dry as the deck of @ man-of-war. The rooms are well yen- | tlated by a new system and the sewerage is as perfect as science can make it. The most prominent objects that strike your eye in entering the largest room are the two immense washing machines, each hav- ing a capacity of six hundred ‘collars «nd cuffs and from sixty to one hundred shirts Each lot of clothes passes through eleht changes of filtered artesian well water, drawn from a well dug upon the plant at great expense. The clothes are then placed in a machine called extractor or “ringer, which thoroughly eliminates the water without tearing or straining the clothes in the least. A truly marvelous piece of mechanism is the mammoth “Wilson A” ironer, for iron- ing collars and cuffs. This machine cost $1,000 and is the largest and most expensive collar and cuff machine in the world, hav- ing a capacity of twenty thousand to forty thousand collars and cuffs a day, or the capacity to iron all the collars and cuffs Sviled in Washington. The “A. T. Hagan” quadruple mangler employed in this laundry cost $2,000 and at its maximum speed wiil iron from fifteen to twenty thousand pieces a day. A sheet one hundred inches wide may be passed through its rollers without foldin he engine and botler room is rat from the main wash room with a thick brick w which prevents any possibility of ashes, sparks, dust or dirt coming in con- tact with the clothes. The large fireproof brick stable in the rear of the main build- ing affords accommodation for twelve horses and the handsome delivery wagons of the company. The plant and the meth- ods governing the operations of the plant have been so arranged that the laundry may do just twice its present bulk of busi- ness without any extra exertion cn the part of the proprietors. Today the concern prob- ably has the facilities of any laundry in_ America. The Yale Steam Laundry t is owned by F. H. Walker and F. BE. ith, both yet young men. Most of its success is attribu- table to the modern methods employed and the judicious use of ink in the form of newspaper advertizing. ——— An Experiment at the Palais Royal. F i E i i |
