The Bioycle Tournament a Big Succea*. Pally 1200 People la Attendance—The Elite of the City wm There nad Enjoyed the Karen, If Cheerlag tad Applauding (Joe* for Aaythlag. Early yesterday morning the ntreeta were ftiU of wheelmen from all sectionn of the aouth, and the knickenbockered wheelmen could be neen al most anywhere. The occasion waa the opening day of the southern bicycle tournament. Tbs parade started from the Rankin houne at 2:80 o'clock, where a large crowd had gathered to wit ness the start. At Star park a large crowd had assembled to witness the races. It is estimated that no occa sion has ever attracted a larger number of specta tors to the park. The number of ladies present was large and gratifying. The first race—a one mile novice—was won by C. H. Dillingham, of this city, in 3:26%, with E. L. Pease, of this city, a good second. The two seemed to be well matched, and under more fhvorable circumstances, it would have been hard to tell the wiuner. The second race, a hal f mile safety, was won by R. H. Polk, of Montgomery, Ala., in 2:21, Dilling ham second. The third was the race of the day, being the five mile Georgia championship. There were four entries for this race, but only two of them came to the scratch, Messrs. T. L. Ingram, of this city, and C. T. Guernsey, of Macon. The men started off well, but on the back stretch Guern sey’s pedal came loose. He changed wheels and on the next lap remounted his own wheel, giving Ingram a good start on him. Ingram finished easily in 17:24%. The fourth race was the half mile boys’ handi cap; won by G. H. Mason, of this city, in 1:48%; Will Bedell, of this city, 2d. The fifth race, a one mile bicycle handicap, was won by C. H. Dillingham, having 225 yards start, and E. L. Pease came in second from the | 250 yards mark; P. W. Stone, of St. Louis, from scratch, never reached the handicap men, and made the mile from scratch in 2:56%. The win ner’s time fVom 225 yards was 2:44. The sixth race would have been a close one and any man the winner but for a fall taken by Guernsey on the back stretch. J. A. Lewis, of St. Louis, finished first in 1:26, and T. L. Ingram % of a second behind. Guernsey entered a pro test and claimed that Lewis ran into him, but Lewis says Guernsey is mistaken about it. The seventh race, a half-mile handicap, wa s won by J. A. Lewis in 1:26, with Dillingham sec ond from the 30-yard mark by % second. The last race was a quarter-mile—open—and was won by P. W. Stone, of St. Ixiuis, in 40 sec onds, with O'. H. Dillingham second. The races were all interesting and pleased the crowd, who seemed to enjoy them very much, and no doubt every one who was out yesterday will be there this evening. THE RACES TO-DAY. The fun will start oft* to-day by the road race at 9 o’clock. The start will be made at the Rankin House. The distance 6 9-16 miles,finishing at the starting point. The route is up Broad to Twelfth street to and straight out Second avenue, over Rose Hill to the two mile post by Mr. Garrard’s and the brick school house and through Wynn- ton down Wynn’s hill and Tenth street to the finish at the Rankin House. The entries are Stone, Lewis, Brantley and Ingram. Doubtless a large crowd will be all along the route to see the racers. The races this afternoon are as follows: 1.

The largest crowd that ever assembled in Star park was there. The attendance to-day should, and no doubt will, be much larger. Guernsey took quite u hard fall yesterday and is pretty sore from it, but will put in some good spurts in the one mile championship to-day. Stone succeeded in lowering the southern one mile record from 3:10 to 2:56%. Brantley, of Macon, who won the handicap there July 5th, will be here to-day and will no doubt do some good work. Messrs. Tuggle, Lequin and Odom acted as time keepers, and will act in the same capacity to-day. The trick and fancy riding will be interesting. The contestants will do a number of difficult acts, among them riding on one wheel. Every time the ladies applauded the boys spilled and got down to their work as if they ap preciated it. The ladies were out in full force, and seemed to enjoy the racing as much as any one. THK (’ll ATT AIIOOCIIKF SCHOOL. A Hosolution of Thunks to the Milton 11. Smith.
