Contested 'Race Ever Seen in Prince Edward' Island. -

` ' Winchester New Owns the Trophy.

As one by one, the principal- events

which mark- the sum.mer season, in this the capri:-nl only oi one Pi-nvlnee,' pass hy, readers -had up to last night been reminded by various out- ward and visible signs that there waa,yet one event of more than or- dinary interest: to come-an event which ranked second to none in pub- lic interest excepting perhaps the yearly 'Provincial Exhibiti w

on hich

thisgevent precedes uy a couple of o weeks. f,

The »Guard‘lan Bicycle Road Race is.

the marking feature the writer is _re- e ierring to which was successfully run 5

off last night, being witnessed by a great crowd at both the starting and finishing of the race. The vast as- semblage which saw the finish gave rise to the bnmptious feeling father- ing the pardonalile pride of the pro- moters in the successful completion nf this athletic competition of whichl so much has been said and so many conjectures have been -made as to the great question "Who will win 7" I In saying n few words as to the

past history of this race, the readers will perhaps, on thoughtful considera- tion of the writer’s good- intentions to entertain those who may only in a small 'way remain in ignorance of the whole facts, pardon a repetition of much of that which may be so well

knownlto most of them.

In the year..1907, The Guardian re-l

allzing that there was room in the athletic field for a revival in a branch of sport which had, in the few years directly preceeding 1907, been some-. what neglected, ' st tutcd a Bicycle Road Race, ofégng in connection therewith a splendid prize list-, 'having as ai special attraction to intending competitors a beautiful cup which was to be won by the contestant: who lil the three years occupied in the competition would obtain the great-

est number of points.

The prize list that year was n good

one and' judging by the nu-miner oi en- tries received from this *the first oi what afterwards proved to be a great annual event,was indeed an attractive one. In the second' year of the Road

Race. the prize list was greatly im-,17

proved and in this the last year of‘ tbe..¢eomletltf0n it has been ‘so en l` lsrgéd as to inake it the greatest oil

any ever offered in the Maritime Pro- Ph

vinces or perhaps in Canada' for any i0 athlebic competition /fn which therel

has been only a single event. *les The list this year is as follows :- to The Guardian's Three Year Trophy. U11
