Prof. j. Frank Mever is occasionally seen passing through town, on his wheel. Several of our wheelmen took in the festival, at Woodward, Saturday evening. They report having a good time and rough riding on the home road, in the night. Some of our wheelmen expect to take in the picnic at Hecla Park. If some of the riders join in the races, we think they will give the fellows on the other side a hustle. Chas S. Bartges, one of the sports of North street, says he was out for his health again, on Sunday evening. He says it is the best remedy to be found. How far, or where he was, nobody kvows.
