What the Local Clnb I Doina- Not of General Interest to Elder. Bom people knew that there existed In Cln einnati a Bicycle Clnb; until recently a great many more did not. The change was effected by the tournament held not long sine uader th auspices of onr local organisation, the Cln einnati Bicycle Clnb. the members of which hav been keenly ally to tbe fact tbat tne Queen City was far behind its slater cities In tbe practice of a sport at one Innocent, manly and healthful. Tb Cincinnati CI nb la a new institution.

Its members being young business men of rela tively limited experience on th wheel, and their tournament therefore did not exhibit by far all of the possibilities of th steel horse. but It was sufficient to awaken an Interest ta the sport, which haa manifested Itself by an increased attendance at tbeir Club-rooms, where instructions In riding are given to those desiring It.

Tbe team engaged is considered by local en ibo-siSNts to an excellent one. Critcblev, the pitcher. Is a large, powerful man. plsyed last season with th Albany Club. Leary, the other ball-iosser, is not only a good man before the bat, but Is also a good second-base man.

He played with the Metropolitans, of Vprx, last season. Kaenan, the catcher, caaght for Crltcbley last season, and did notablaworfc both at th bat and in the held. Myers, short stop, played part of laat sesson with the Providence ieagu nine. He ts an old player, having been in the axperts, of Harris-burg, and several of ta Philadelphia Club. Part of last aeaaon be wan manager nf th haltlmor Club.

Morion 1 a uew man, although he played last season witb the Akrons, snd also several games Ith th Cleveland. Swarwood also played hut season with th Akrons. He is a ttrst-claas right-fielder, and one of the best batsman in tb country. M. K.

Mansell was one of tbe old atars. of Hymens. Is a powerful left-handed batter, and one of tb best left-fielders la th country. It is very well known in tnls city whers he bas frequently played. Jacob Goodman was first bas In th Alleghany Club la 1877, and, it Is said, that he Is able to play better bow than be ever did.

Taylor, the third baseman, la a general player. He pitched part of laat season with the l'lvlaada. and did aom very good work for them. He has been playing all winter with tbe Brennaus of Hew Orleans, and in on of that Club's recent game with th other Mew Orleans Club, ia which there were llilatnson and three other Chicago players, be waaoaly hit for lb res baa blta. it is said of Taylor that be Is one of the most promising players In the country, particularly as caa play la any position from catcher down.

The manas-er haa re ceived offers from Hewley. of Wheeling; Brown- miller, ot aeaaanoy: Timlin, of Kew Haven, and Ueorge Uoiden, of Brooklyn. From present indi cations the latter will be selected. The salary list will not exceed as.OOii. Of the fft.uuO stock, in shares oi fa escn, nearly an nas oeea taken, ana toe isw remainingshares will be gone durlno tne next ten days.

The seat ing capacity will five thousand tnre thousand in th Orand Btasd and over two thousand In the free seats. All desirable conveniences will be provided.

Said Mr. McKnight: "1 have Just got back fom New York where I had a eonferenoa with Manaa-er fare-uaan of the Troy CKib. Mr. rerruaMi told me that Uol- hert had signed wita their Club before he had ooeaed negotiations wltb the Alleghany Club. Per- rusoa aiso state tast Atoioeri bad lateiv fallen nte tb habit ef playing tricks of tbat kind where be bad an impression that he could scoop In a littl money.

I cam to tb conclusion that It would cost too much money, time and trouble to go oa to Troy and bave Molbert lugged, and received an as surance irom sir. rergnaon that would se that ta se advanced bp as to Asolbsrt should r- tumed at tn ooaning of tn aeaaon. 1 have nn. eluded not to do any ihiqg further la tbe matter, until th next meeting ol tb Association, when i will move to have him expelled.
