| I eymiUsd.-Some excitement was oc
casioned Wednesday by the intelli
gence that number of persons, in
GLIDING several ladies, had beer
placed Under arrest for coasting OF
Main Street the night before. A
hearing before Justice Moat was had
at 7 p. m, when the Mayor appeared
and ordered the case dismissed, which
was done.
1t seems the Nav or had given the
permission under which the ordinance
was violatod-an exercise of author
ity far beyond his prerrogativea.
With this view of the matter num-
Der of Councilmen met and measures
for redress discussed.
When it was known upon the street
that the ordinance was practically a
nullity, much indignation was ex-
pressed. And when it appeared that
it had been pretty we'll understood
by the boys that "the case was to be
dismissed public feeling was net
softenod. With almost Geographic
celebrity the news went to the least
ern" crews the street was captured,
az d for several hours they careered
from the summit to the base of our
long thoroughfare.
