12 THE REALM OF SPORT, The p About the Play and | THE PULLMAN ROAD RACE. Activity Among the Pugs—The Ama- | « Movements—The Bykers' Column—The Wheel, H Rod, Dog and Gur Four years ago R. D, Garden, then n com parative stranger in Chi conceived the iden of promoting a road rlocal bicyclo riders from the Leland hotel to Puliman, Ho called a number of riders together, talked the matter over with thom, and tho result was that Decoration day of 1887 between forty and fifty riders contestod the first aunual Pullman road race. The success of the event vas such that the promoter was induced to repeat the event the following year. The race has grown in popularity overy year since, until it has become recognized as the greatest ovent of the kind in the worid. Last year tho entries numbered nearly two hundred and the field of starters was the largest ever known in this or any other conn- try. Although Mr. Gurden was nominally the promotor of the race, he always called in the assistance of the various clubs of that city. Some few months ago an association known as the Associated Cyeling Clubs of Chicago was formed, ana it now embraces all the im. portant clubs of Chicago. To this association ir, ( den de 1 it ad hle to turn over ment of the event, and at a mect- 10 last wook all the details were com- the mana fug h etofore the cvent has been open only to bers of local clubs, but it has boen advisable to open it to others, and, any member of a cycling club is cligible to comnote this year, and a delega- tiou will go over from this city to witnoss the race at least. At the last meeting of the association a complete code of rules drawn up, which appear on the entry blavks, Theso may bo obtained at uny of the cycle houses. 'he rules entries hould closo May 15, and havdicaps, which will be mado, as last year, by S. A. Miles, must be published three days beforo The handi the race. ap limit will be twelve minutes, s of pneumatic wheels four minutes. Thoe limit men will be started from the Leland hotel exactly at 10:12, raiu or shine, The indications are that the prize list will eclipse any heretoforo presented. A com- witteo of one member from each Chicago club is now at work and has met with every encouragement so far, There is no othor city probably in which a raco of this kind could bo successfully man- aged. In all other places it has been found necessary to seck courses in the countr. Thanks fo the Chicago park commissioners, however, tho wheclmen have not only been allowed {o run the event annually, buta lar force of ofticers has been placed at their dis- posal to assist in keoping the course clear, for which tho riders arve duly grateful. It is confidently expected that’ this year's en- tries will number 200, the largest uumber ever recorded in the world for an event of this kind. 3 Import istic Events, In less than threo weeks tho great heavy weight battle between Peter Jackson and Jim Corbett will have been decided 1 San Francisco. Soveral Omahans will make tho trip to tho const to see the clash, Corbett, is not leaving a stone unturned in his traiug, and his handlers, Donaldson and Delanoy,are sanguie that he will prove a Tartar to the colored champion when they meet. Jackson' trawer, Ritzpatrick, has repoatedly statod his his charge cannot sgand over four or five weeks' work, aud that {n the days when the finishing touches are beiug put ou Juckson must be watched closely that ho does not run stale before the evening of the entorta ment. The Australian will do most of his in- door exercise at night. He has demonstrated satisfactorily that n man who_fights at night should do the heaviost part of his work at or about the time ho will engage in the fistic combat. Not only doos Jackson train at night_between tho hours of 8 and_10 o'clock, bt while undergoing the sweating proce he has his improvised gymnasium made b liant by numerous lights, which, he believ, will materially assist to familiarize hun to the glaro of the powerful club lights at o time when fighters who are in traiming, as a rule, are taking their best sleep. Jackson, genorally speaking, uses good judg mont in all matters, and thero is a deal of truth in his statemont that & man's eye must be clear and quick when No faces an opponent. “Sleop,” says Jackson, *has u great com- mand over man, and whén a pugilist has been accustomed to go to rest at any cortain hour, no matter what the excitement may be, ho will fecl the effects of combating it at a time when he should feel as bright as a dollar,” Neither man up to date has much the call in the betting, but in several instances good odds have been laid on the black man, Tommy White, who mado a six-hour draw fight with Danny Daly in_this city last win- ter, will meet George Siddous, the Peoria boy, in a fivish fight for $1,000 and the gato 9, somewhere within fifty miles of Fort vio, Ind. Unusual interest is b taken in this~ encounter by local admires tho fistic art who remember the scientitic and desperate meeting above reforred to, and aiso from the fact that White and Siddons fought once before, a draw also, in twenty- seven rounds. In the coming engagement Siddons will be handled by Tom Ryan, cham- vion welterweight,” while Harry Gilmore will. as usual, take care of White,” The lat- ter loft Tuesday for Waucouda, Lake county, Illinois, to go into active training. Siddons and Ryan have been hard at work over a week at Old Klm farm, the property of ¢ United States Treasurer Huston, Conners- ville, Ind. He writes glowingly of his quar- ters and is rapidly rounding into form. Ihe battle is an_important_one, as it will place the winner in line to demand recognition of the champion in that class. Ed Rothery and Danny Daly of this city will be at the ring side on the Oth ready to challenge the winuer. Jim Hall and” Bob Fitzsimmons, the re- doubtable Australians, will come together for a 812,000 purse before the Twin City club at Minueapolis, July 22 Sporty Sioux City, xCity, Ia., April 23.—To the Sporting Editor of Tur Bre: The Riverside boat club has taken steps to join the lowa State Amateur Rowing association, whose regattas aro rowed ut Spirit Lake.

But the game that excited most en- thusiasm was played with the latter club on a Sunday afternoon in July, and was the last of a series of three games, each club having won one. The grand stand was packed and tho fans were out in Tull force, as the Nonpareils woro considered the strongest team in Omaha, but dospite their well earned reputation, avd their desperate effort,they fell victims to tho tunc of 1St0 6. Again ata iater day, they were beatea by a score of 12 to 2, The City Steams ulso tried conclusions with Nebraska City, but lost the series, the score standing 4 to on the first gamoe in favor of Nebraska City; 8 to 7 in favor of City Steams the second game, and 15 to 3 in favorof Neoraska City Sunday afternoon.

Later iu the season they were defeated by the Lincoln Giants by a score of 7 to 6, and while it was a good game, the Giants would never have won it, had the Nobraska City not put in an imported pitcher as an experi- ment. More games could be mentioned, but the above suffico to show that the claiin of No- braska City to having the strongest amatenr team in Nebraska during the season of 1890, was abundantly proved.
