CYCLING GOSSIP.
The iiicy.ile girl cannot itc imitrcl.
This Is ihe decree of the accident insur
ance companies. The reason for 1 bis is n
odd from a business standpoint as the fact
itself. It is because of the frivolity of
woman that Is, she makes frivolous
claims for damages. The accident Insur
ance policy usually calls for payment i.f
.'.'H0 In case of death, and in case of dis
ability from $7 to 123 a week, according lo
the extent of the Injuries. The annual
payment to secure this insurance ranges 1
from i to fcO, in different eotrpauli s. J
Scarcely a day passes that feminine til- 1
cycle riders do not visit th Insurance '
companies as applicants for pel! -les, but 1
now they are Invariably fold that they I
cutinot be Insured under the rubs agr.ted
to by tlio underwriters.
Qiille a sensation was created by the
publication in the Philadelphia Impiiri r
of the statement that a syndicate has ben
formed to luke control of bicyclo racing
In opposition to the League of American
.Wheelmen. That there Is such a move
ment on foot Is ilmpies! iono't, but Just
who are back of It Is not clear. A com
pline denial of any connection with Ihe
syndicate is made by A. H. Spalding In
the following telegram from New York:
The Philadelphia Inquirer: You will
oblige me by denying thai I am in any
way Interested in the syndicate or asso
ciation to fight the League of American
Wheelmen. Am In perfect accord with the
policy of the League of American W heel
men. "A. O. Spalding."
This shows Hint Mr. Spalding Is not con-
nected with the scheme, but that sonv I
manufacturers are is undented and the
opposition to tile League ill racing will !
iinuesilonably prove formidable.

Tomorrow- the Seranton flub will re
turn for a series of six games with
Wilkes-Barre. The schedule Is: In
Si ran I on Thursday. Vllkes-Harre Fri
day. Seranton Saturday morning,
Wilkes-Barre Saturday afternoon,
Sruntiui Monday, Wllkes-Kai-iv Tues
day. Then Providence und Springfield
come, here in order named for three
games each, the season closing with
Springfield on Tuesday, the 1.1th.
Tin- fact that the) Wilkes-Itarre ami
Scratitou clubs are separated by only
a few pidiils, und that each Is deter
mined 1101 to llnlsh in last place, will
insure ganies hard und desperately
fought. Then there exists the old
spirit of rivalry between them. At
Hie ten games between the two i.-lulw
Seranton has won six and Wilkes
Barre three, one other game being cred
ited to Wilkes-Barn.- on a forfeit.
Scrantin crunks have had no criti
cism to make cf the owners' efforts to
secure fur Hi's city a wining teuin. The
first yeais' attempt has been a failure,
but through no fault of Hie presrl n:uii
nreniirnt. The series with Wilkes-
1 liaue will give the faithful a clmtice to
1 show their apptvclatlon of the owners'
misfortune and to encourage them fjr
another trial next year. In any event
the strife between the two clubs will
make games wcel worth wlmessing.

clubs have made strenuous efforts to
udd him to their enlistment. Itrolten
steln was the tlrst remarked! effective
exponent nf the left-handeil twist, of
which ho Is widely recognized as the
master.
In the pat years some entertaining
fish tales have been npplied to base
bull pitchers' skill. Stories were told of
of men who had Ihe magic to twirl the
sphere in u perfect sflzzag course around
: strlght row of posts, but It Is almost
needless to remark that sin-h a marvel
never could be accomplished.
The Invention of curving the bnse ball
sphere Is credited to William Arthur
Cummlngs, a Brooklynlte. Mr. Cum
mings discovered the magic through
an accident. In much the same manner
as Professor Conrad Roentgen found
the world-fumed X-rays.
It seems strange to hear that through
the idle throwing of a half clam shell,
birth should have been given to the
trick which has produced Ihe famous
Rusle. Ehret, Hawley, Kennedy, Urelt
ensteln. Payne, Killen and Orth. It Is
a fact, nevertheless, and the Idle theory
that develojed In the mind of the now
nlmo'tt forgotten Inventor, who once en
Joyed the title of champion twlrler is
perhaps responsible fur the rise of base
bull as the national game. Of course,
others my have coniidved th same
theory, ns Is frequently claimed, and
not been so rpilek lo perfest ii or to
realize its feasibilty.
Cummlngs had many discourage

who always did and always will
attend bnl games. But ufter uffording
much amusement without allowing
himself 'a be nueered, he succeeded In
sueresiltilly applying his theory to
bnse ball pitching, though te perfection
of evn te infancy of Its accomplishment
required months of tedious nnd con
stant practice.

Between this man and this horse the

had a good lead down the homestretch,
but took to loafing, as is his habit when
no horse Is pressing him. tin this oc
