Edward Edwards Makes Thirty Second Century Ride In Storm
Edward Edwards of New York extended his attempt to ride a century a day, completing his 32nd century Tuesday despite a snowstorm after covering 100 miles Monday with a horse and cutter pacing the final miles. The bicycle trade remains slow this season without a cycle show. August Lehr defeated Nat Butler in two heats at Bellaire Florida with times 2 59 2 5 and 3 12 2 5. There is little chance the L A W will erase the color line at the assembly as many large divisions oppose admitting colored men. Tom Linton, the Welsh rider in New York, may visit Boston. Charles River Park manager Ducker aims to sign him for the season.
