SMALL TALK

... . It was scarcely royal weather that greeted the royal wedding on Wednesday, for the sun that had blazed so gloriously for days in London disappeared and left us with nothing but a rather muggy atmosphere. By the way, an admirable résumé of the whole ceremony is issued to-day in the shape of a shilling Wedding Number of the Illustrated London News. It is admirably illustrated, and the ...

ROWING.--HENLEY, &c

The victory of Leander in the Grand Challenge was a foregone conclusion, especially after their defeat of New in the second round. They won easily by two and a quarter lengths over Thames. The Thames Cup ...

SOME BUYERS AT THE JULY SALES: SIR WILLIAM JAMES INGRAM, BART

... SOME BUYERS AT THE JULY SALES. SIR WILLIAM JAMES INGRAM, BART. SIR WILLIAM INGRAM has been more or less connected with the Turf for some years, but if he has never yet possessed a racehorse of any note he has lately made several extensive pur chases in high-bred stock, so it is possible that we may see the olive-green and white diamonds and rose-pink cap more often to the fore in the future ...

FOUR AGES OF THE BICYCLE

... . LOOK at that picture and on this; or on those three pictures of past days and on this one of the machine of 1896; take a spin along the Ripley-road on a Sunday morning, or if you are not a cyclist, take a stroll on the pavement that skirts the Bayswater-road or that loads towards Hammersmith, and try to recall, as you watch the stream of cyclists flowing incessantly country-wards, what ...
